(Japanese: 決戦！ヒカリＶＳノゾミ！！ Decisive Battle! Hikari VS Nozomi!!) is the 177th episode of the Diamond & Pearl series, and the 643rd episode of the Pokémon anime. It first aired in Japan on May 20, 2010.
Synopsis
The episode begins off with a brief recap of the past three episodes. It cuts back to Dawn and Zoey. Marian makes her announcement and Dawn sends out Piplup and Togekiss while Zoey sends out Glameow and Gallade, evolved from her Kirlia. Ash checks Gallade out on his Pokédex when suddenly Johanna arrives to cheer on her daughter. Ash and Brock are surprised but quickly make room for her. Dawn tells Piplup and Togekiss to do their best as they are going against Zoey. Dawn starts out with having Piplup jump on Togekiss's back and Togekiss flying up and using Aura Sphere. Piplup surrounds the Aura Sphere with BubbleBeam. Zoey has Glameow use Shadow Claw to cut the Aura Sphere in half and Gallade uses Psycho Cut to pop the BubbleBeam into a circling sparkling show causing Dawn to loses points as she stares at the sparkles in a daze while Fantina admires it greatly. Togekiss flies towards Gallade and Glameow then flies up. While distracted, Piplup starts to use Hydro Pump, however Zoey has Glameow use Fake Out. Glameow leaps at Piplup causing him to flinch, and Glameow then slams its paws together sending Piplup flying. Dawn loses more points now having 3/4ths of her full score. Piplup recovers and Zoey has Gallade use Vacuum Wave on Togekiss. Dawn tells Togekiss to use Air Slash. Togekiss dodges the Vacuum Wave and fires the Air Slash but Gallade backflips and dodges it. Zoey and Gallade look up at Togekiss, and Zoey knows not to underestimate it. Both Dawn and Zoey lose points.
Gallade uses Signal Beam and Glameow uses Iron Tail. The Signal Beam hits Glameow's tail and Glameow spins its tail creating a spinning whirlpool stream of Signal Beam. Piplup reacts with Whirlpool and Glameow fires the Signal-Tail Combination. Togekiss uses Aura Sphere on Whirlpool and Whirlpool glows like Aura Sphere. The two attacks collide and creates a beautiful fireworks display. Dawn and Zoey lose points; Dawn at 1/2 her original and Zoey at 3/4ths hers. Gallade uses Swords Dance, increasing his attack power while Togekiss uses Safeguard while spinning; Zoey loses points. Glameow charges at Togekiss with Shadow Claw and Dawn wonders why Zoey would use a Template:Type2 move against a Template:Type2 like Togekiss. Togekiss charges at Glameow with Sky Attack and Gallade begins using Psycho Cut. Piplup retaliates with Peck and collides with Gallade creating a bright flash. In the flash, Glameow jumps past Togekiss and lands on its tail to bounce onto Togekiss's back. After the flash fades away, Dawn wonders where Togekiss is only to find it in the air flying around in panic trying to get Glameow off its back. Dawn loses points. Johanna comments on Zoey's strategy and Ash tells Togekiss and Dawn to hold on. Glameow uses Thunderbolt but Togekiss's Safeguard blocks it surprising both Zoey and Glameow. Fantina comments how wonderful it was and Dawn and Zoey lose points; Zoey a little bit under half and Dawn at 1/4th her original.
Dawn tells Piplup to help Togekiss and Zoey tells Gallade to block it. Gallade uses Vacuum Wave but Piplup dodges it with its spin technique and jumps on Gallade's head into the air. Zoey is shocked and Piplup uses Hydro Pump to knock Glameow off Togekiss's back. Piplup jumps onto Togekiss and Zoey loses points. Gallade uses Psycho Cut but Togekiss easily dodges. Princess Salvia, Lila, Candice, and Kenny are seen watching the final on TV. Gallade uses Psycho Cut again and Togekiss flies straight upward. The attack gains speed and catches up and Piplup jumps off Togekiss's back to dodge. Dawn gets anxious and has Piplup initiate Whirlpool while Togekiss charges towards Gallade and Glameow then flies up. Piplup fires the Whirlpool but Glameow catches it with Iron Tail and Gallade disperses it with Vacuum Wave creating a beautiful sparkling effect. Dawn tells Piplup to use Peck and Togekiss use Sky Attack. Togekiss glows and charges then Piplup hops on Togekiss's head and its beak glows and grows. Piplup's beak shines a white light that turns red and surrounds both Piplup and Togekiss with Piplup's beak the only thing not in the red light; the two looking like a rocket or missile being launched with the beak being the rocket/missile and the red light being the fire. Fantina comments on the combination and Zoey loses points now being a little bit behind Dawn. Zoey tells Gallade to use Psycho Cut and Glameow to use Thunderbolt. Gallade jumps and initiates Psycho Cut while Glameow lifts its tail up. As Gallade lands on Glameow's tail, Glameow uses Thunderbolt and gives Psycho Cut an electric charge. Gallade jumps up and Dawn becomes excited and cheers Togekiss and Piplup on. Gallade fires the electrified Psycho Cut and still shots of Piplup on Togekiss, Gallade, Glameow, Zoey, then Dawn flash. Togekiss and Piplup collide with the Psycho Cut and a major explosion erupts along with a bright flash. Togekiss and Piplup are stumbling backwards and Gallade is falling backwards. Zoey and Dawn try to stand on their feet as the sheer force of the explosion is pushing them back. Togekiss and Piplup land on their feet while Gallade lands and gets in a battle pose. Dawn and Zoey both lose points, the smoke clears, and time runs out. Dawn and Zoey quickly look to the board and its revealed that while both only have a few points left Zoey has a couple of more than Dawn, and is declared the winner of the Grand Festival. Dawn looks disappointed and everyone cheers for Zoey. Ash, Brock, Johanna, and Pikachu are sad that Dawn lost. Gallade and Glameow hug Zoey and Dawn picks up Piplup. She tells Piplup and Togekiss they both did a great job and congratulates Zoey.
Jessie is furious that Dawn lost and decides to quit contests and throws away her Jessilina costume, stomping away. Zoey is awarded the Ribbon Cup and the title of Top Coordinator and the Grand Festival comes to an end. Dawn undresses and meets her mom in the hallway. She hugs her being happy that she was there and gives her back the ribbon she gave her before her journey. Dawn says she doesn't need it anymore as she now has her own. Nurse Joy then appears and informs Ash that she has been contacted by Volkner and informs Ash that the Sunyshore City Gym is fully repaired causing Ash to get excited knowing he'll soon be battling for his final badge. Dawn and Zoey are now outside talking and Nando comes out and congratulates the two on a fine battle before leaving. Zoey says she's going back to Snowpoint City as Candice is going to be throwing a party in her honor, and tells Dawn that she's welcome to accompany her, however Dawn says she's going to stay with Ash and support him during the Sinnoh League. Zoey tells Dawn goodbye and leaves. Dawn then sends out Buneary, Pachirisu, Mamoswine, Cyndaquil and Togekiss and thanks them, along with Piplup, for all their hard work getting into the Grand Festival and for the performances that got her to the final before telling her trusted partners and friends that they'll do even better in the next one. Dawn and her Pokémon jump into the air in celebration, knowing that while one journey has just ended another one will soon begin...
