The Pokémon Musical (Japanese: ポケモンミュージカル Pokémon Musical) is a feature in the Generation V games Pokémon Black and White. Like Pokémon Contests, Pokémon Super Contests and the Pokéathlon from previous games, this feature provides Trainers with an alternative to battling.
Pokémon Musicals feature a modified version of the appeals round in the Super Contests of Generation IV. Just like in Super Contests, Trainers have to dress up their Pokémon in different props. In the competition round, Pokémon compete by dancing on the theater stage with the other entrants. Similar to Pokémon Contests and the Pokéathlon, there are four Trainers allowed to participate at once.
Location
Pokémon Musicals are held in a large, brightly colored theater in Nimbasa City in the Unova region.
Categories
There are four categories of Musical, each one has different songs.

Dressing up
The first part of the Pokémon Musical involves dressing up the Pokémon by putting props onto it. Props can be obtained by loitering audience members after the performance and are placed in the Prop Case. If the costume fits the song, more points are awarded. What is worn is vital for the Musical, as these props can be waved around for appeal; however, each prop may only be waved around once.

Dancing
When Pokémon are dressed, it is time to perform with the music. If the audience likes the Pokémon, they will gives new props to the player, which the player can keep. New pieces of music can be downloaded from the Global Link. The player cannot influence the Musical itself beyond when to use held props, so the dressing up and timing must be near perfect to impress the crowd.
Review
After the musical, the player will be told how well they did, in what category and to what degree. The review goes in order from from lowest performance to highest performance, and will be evaluated as either: cool, cute, elegant, unique, quirky, or balanced.
