A Pokémon Showcase

A Pokémon Showcase (Japanese: トライポカロン TriPokalon) is an anime-exclusive type of competition held in the Kalos region. Trainers participating in them are called Pokémon Performers.

Aria as Kalos Queen

Pokémon Showcases are performance tournaments that take place in various towns through Kalos. They are divided in two sections. The first is called the Theme Performance and can encompass activities such as making Poké Puffs, grooming Pokémon, or performing with props. The activities per theme performance depend on the specific Showcase tournament. The second section is called the General Free-Style Performance, which is the same in each Pokémon Showcase. The Pokémon Performer and their Pokémon perform together on stage, making full use of the Pokémon's capabilities. It is similar to the Performance Stage of a Pokémon Contest.

It is implied there are several classes in Pokémon Showcase tournaments, with the lowest apparently being Rookie Class, and the highest being Master Class. Pokémon Performers who win each individual Showcase tournament three or more times can enter the Master Class. Pokémon Performers in the Master Class perform in one last ultimate tournament, with the winner gaining the title of "Kalos Queen". The current Kalos Queen is Aria, who managed to win the Master Class tournament with her Braixen.

Shauna had already set her goal to become a Pokémon Performer, and ultimately Kalos Queen. In Day Three Blockbusters!, she informed Serena about Pokémon Showcases, which led to Serena wanting to become a Pokémon Performer as well.

An official Pokémon Showcase appeared for the first time in Dreaming a Performer's Dream!. It was a Rookie Class tournament held in Lagoon Town and featured an exhibition performance by Aria. Ash and his friends were spectators of this Pokémon Showcase.

In XY060, Serena, Shauna and Jessie as well as other participants took part in a Pokémon Showcase in which Shauna won but Serena and Jessie lost in the first round.
