(Japanese: トゲキッス舞う!王女さまのポケモンコンテスト!! Togekiss Dance! The Princess's Pokémon Contest!!) is the 171st episode of the Diamond & Pearl series, and the 637th episode of the Pokémon anime. It first aired in Japan on April 1, 2010 as part of a 1-hour special alongside DP170.
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...
Major events
- Jessie participates in the Katakori Town Contest and loses to Princess Salvia but is given the ribbon by the latter, thereby completing her requirement for the Grand Festival.
- Dawn obtains Togekiss from Salvia.
