Synopsis
Template:Incomplete synopsis
Still on the way to Valor Lakefront, Dawn is surprised to meet Salvia, a Princess who looks exactly like her who has always dreamed of entering a Contest with her Togekiss. Deciding to take advantage of the situation, Salvia asks Dawn to swap places with her for the day so she can enter an upcoming contest with Togekiss while Dawn gets to sample the life of a Princess. Agreeing, Dawn soon learns the life of a princess isn't so easy while Salvia fulfils her dream of entering a contest. However Jessie (who is still attempting to win her fifth ribbon) is very angry when she sees 'Dawn' entering the contest despite having already collected five ribbons and vows to defeat her...

- Music from Pikachu's Vacation, Pikachu's Peek-a-Boo, Jirachi Wish Maker, Lucario and the Mystery of Mew and The Rise of Darkrai is played in this episode.
- The way how Dawn and Salvia, who have identical appearances, change places and live each other's lives for sometime is similar to the plot of The Prince and the Pauper.

- Nearing the arrival of Generation V Pokemon, a script drawn out of the characters briefly revisiting Johto (prior to the release of Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver) was presented to the animation staff, similar to the visiting of Kanto trailing the Hoenn Saga.
- This was the second time a "princess" was used in accordance to the Togepi evolution chain.
- Princess Iris shows resemblance to manga character "Lady Berlitz".
- This is the only time a main character has been directly giving a final evolved form of a Pokemon.
