Synopsis

Template:Incomplete synopsis Dawn and Ursula have made it past the first round and must now face each other in battle. But, Ursula has a secret plan for Plusle and Minun. Will Dawn be able to defeat Ursula and win her fifth and final ribbon?

The episode starts with Jessie using Seviper and Yanmega against Ursula using Plusle and Minun. Jessilina commands Seviper to use haze and Yanmega to use Sonicboom. It creates a beautiful spinning move, taking a few points off of Ursula's score. Plusle and Minun use a combined spark to break it into a dazzling shower of sparkles, deductig even more points from Jessilina's score. Yanmega lifts Seviper into the air. Plusle and Minun use helping hand to power up. Yanmega uses Silverwind, and Seviper charges a Poisontail. The Silverwind hits Seviper's tail, sending a twirl of poison beams at the cheering Pokémon, deducting their points. To counter they use a combined spark attack, powered my helping hand, creating a explosion followed by a shower of blue and green sparkles, leaving them vulnerable. Seviper is released, while Plusle and Minun twirl into a tumbleweed-like formation using spark, then at the last second, they slit, Plusle lunging towards Seviper, while Minun is launched in the air towards Yanmega. Two great balls of light appear with a popping sound. Both of Jessilina's Pokémon fall, unable to battle, winning Ursula the match.

Trivia

  • Professor Oak's Pokémon lecture: Unown
  • This episode marks the first time that the main Coordinator of the anime won her fifth ribbon in a contest that isn't the final contest before the Grand Festival.
  • This episode marks the first appearance of a Togetic in the anime other than the one that belonged to Misty.
  • This episode is similar to Another One Gabites the Dust!, where:
    • Dawn, Ursula, and Jessie were the main coordinators.
    • Ursula beats Jessie prior to battling Dawn in the finals.
    • Dawn defeats Ursula just before time runs out.
  • Music from Spell of the Unown, Pokémon Heroes, Destiny Deoxys, Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, and The Rise of Darkrai are played in this episode. By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~ was also used as background music as the battle between Dawn and Ursula was about to end.
  • This episode first aired in both Japan and the United States only a week shy of a year since the episode in which Dawn obtained her last ribbon and in which Ursula herself debuted.
  • This episode marks Cyndaquil's first Contest, and, coincidentally, it aired in Japan in the same week that An Egg Scramble!, the episode when Cyndaquil was obtained, aired in America.
  • While Dawn is watching Ursula's battle against Jessilina, a male coordinator next to her wears the same clothing that Giovanni is seen wearing in the anime: An orange tuxedo and a light tan shirt under. The only difference is that the coordinator is wearing a differently colored tie.

Errors

  • Togetic was hit by Shadow Ball despite being a Normal-type.
  • Mamoswine was hit by Spark and Charge Beam despite being a Ground-type.
  • Ursula says she was glad to see diamond dandruff in person, however she had already seen it when showing Dawn part of plusle and minun's performance.
    • This may be because she hadn't heard the diamond dandruff story, or because she was simply rubbing it in Dawn's face.
