Beautiful (condition)

The Beauty Contest is one of five different Pokémon Contest categories, the other four being Cute, Smart, Cool and Tough. Many Beauty moves are Ice-, Water-, or Template:Type2s, but other types may be Beauty as well. Many Beauty moves in Hoenn Contests also increase the user's condition. During a Beauty Contest, the following moves will excite the crowd:

• Beauty moves - High
• Cute moves - Average
• Smart moves - Poor
• Cool moves - Average
• Tough moves - Poor

The Beauty condition is raised by Poffin or Pokéblocks made with dry-flavored Berries. Pokémon with natures that boost Special Attack - Modest, Mild, Quiet, and Rash - get the most benefit from dry Berries, so they are the easiest to raise for a Beauty Contest. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, a Pokémon's Beauty condition can be raised with Daisy Oak's massages.
