Learn how the Contest condition in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl works: when used, the caster appeals first during the next turn. Master this strategy for success!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The "Contest" condition is a special effect that can be triggered during Pokémon Contests.
  2. 2
    When a Pokémon uses a move with this condition, it gains priority for its appeal in the next turn.
  3. 3
    This allows the player to control the flow of the Contest by ensuring their Pokémon can appeal before opponents on the subsequent turn.
Tips
  • Utilize this condition to set up powerful appeal combinations or to prevent opponents from gaining momentum.
  • Pay attention to the turn order and the effects of other Pokémon's appeals to maximize the benefit of the "Contest" condition.
