The Wallace Cup (Japanese: ミクリカップ Mikuri Cup) is a special Pokémon Contest hosted and judged by former Sootopolis Gym Leader and current Hoenn Champion, the master Coordinator Wallace. The event was introduced in Our Cup Runneth Over!, while the actual contest took place in the episodes Staging a Heroes' Welcome!, Pruning a Passel of Pals!, and Strategy with a Smile!.
It was announced on Sinnoh Now, where Dawn found out about it and became excited. Eventually, she, Ash, and Brock ran into Wallace himself, who was relaxing with his Milotic in a lake; Ash was convinced to enter the Contest with Buizel, which he used in the three rounds he competed in before losing.
May traveled all the way from Johto to compete in this Contest, but she lost to Dawn in the final round.
Competition
The Wallace Cup is hosted at various locations throughout the world, and the most recent one was hosted at Lake Valor in Sinnoh, with the prize being the Aqua Ribbon that counts towards any region's Grand Festival, not merely that of the region it is won in. For this reason, Coordinators migrated from all around the nation to compete in it.
Like all Sinnoh Pokémon Contests, Marian is the announcer. Jessadia, who was Jessie in disguise, also hosted the Wallace Cup with Marian.
Rounds
Each round is judged by a panel of four individuals. They include Raoul Contesta, Mr. Sukizo, Nurse Joy and the Contest master Wallace.
Appeals
Just like ordinary contests, the first round is the appeals stage. Coordinators have their Pokémon perform various moves in order to impress the judges. The top scoring Coordinators from this round move on to the next stage.
Battle rounds
The next rounds show how skilled Coordinators and their Pokémon are when put into battle. Whoever loses is out of the tournament, and the winner keeps going until he or she gets to the fifth and final round. All matches are decided randomly by computer. The winner of the final round is then declared the winner of the Wallace Cup.
