After this appeal, the user is more easily startled : While the move will generally give 6 hearts any startle will remove twice as many hearts than usual. This may be useful in tag team contests when your partner does a low point startle that you can follow up by this to improve your team standing.
If the pokemon before you did well you will get less or no hearts but if it did poorly you may get up to 6 hearts. Affected by how well the appeal in front goes: This effect is rather special. Note that these moves are banned from MATE Pokemon Contests. Allows no more to the end / Cannot participate in any of the remaining turns: Using this move will cause your pokemon not to be able to perform in later turns making it useful only for the last round. This is pretty much only useful for the last round. Misses one turn of appeals: Exactly what it says, you won't perform the next round. This is useful to prevent following players from getting a crowd excitement bonus this round. Temporarily stops the crowd from growing excited: The crowd excitement meter will freeze in the state it will be after this move. The appeal works the best the more the crowd is excited: The more the crowd is excited the more hearts will this move award. Can be repeatedly used without boring the Judge: Using this move over and over won't get your pokemon penalized by the judge for move repetition. This is a general description for 4 heart appealing moves. A highly appealing move: No special effect.
Let me know if come across a special effect description not listed here along with the name of the move. Note that the following list of these effects may not be complete. In that case you can use the move without getting penalized for repeating it (you didn't perform previous round after all).Ī lot of moves have various additional effects based on the description. However this will also happen when your pokemon got nervous and didn't perform. Note that the move you used last time will be highlighted with red text. Also avoid repeating the same move right the next turn or you will be penalized by the judge (the penalty increases with the amount of repeat) unless specified otherwise in the move description. The number next to appeal and jam usually translates to hearts by dividing the number by 10 (unless other effects are in place). Jam: The number says how much the foes' pokemon appeal will be reduced (usually between 0-40) Each move has a contest description near the bottom of the tooltip:Īppeal: The number says how appealing the move is when used (usually between 10-60) Pokemon level, IVs or EVs have absolutely no effect. Unlike in pokemon combat the moves in contest have completely different rules. Using an incompatible move will decrease the crowd excitement by one. Using a compatible move won't affect the crowd excitement.

When a pokemon gets crowd to full excitement it will get a bonus of 5 hearts instead of just 1 and the crowd excitement meter will reset to 0. The level of this can be seen in the top left corner of the contest screen. Using a crowd favored move increases the crowd excitement and gives the pokemon an extra heart (unless a move that stops the crowd from getting excited is used but more on this later in this guide). Each category also has a set of moves that are favored by the crowd (beauty moves for beauty contest), compatible moves and incompatible moves as seen in table below : And each contest category has four ranks: Normal, Super, Hyper and Master. There are five contest categories: Beauty, Coolness, Cuteness, Smartness and Toughness. Note that a pokemon with that contest rank ribbon won't get any reward for winning. When playing in link group almost everyone gets a reward. And sometimes winning a master rank contest will award you with 10 or 20 luxury balls. Besides berries, lemonades, moomoo milk you can also win rare candies. Winning in a contest can get you nice prizes. While the main audience for this guide are the participants in our VÏP Team Contest Events, anyone who's interested in contests should be able to benefit from this. While there's a ton of guides on this topic for the original games, I couldn't find any specific to PokeMMO. As per request I've put together a guide to a frequently overlooked feature of Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald editions: Contests.
