DP177: A Grand Fight for Winning!

Plot
The grand finale is under way at the Pokemon Contest Grand Festival and it's sure to be an unforgettable battle! Just as they hoped, longtime friends and rivals, Dawn and Zoey, are facing off against each other for the title of Top Coordinator. And since each of them is using a Pokemon that the other has never battled against, the round promises to be full of surprises!

Zoey's Gallade and Glameow start off strongly, displaying Zoey's brilliant strategic mind. But the team of Dawn, Piplup and Togekiss is formidable indeed, and as we near the end of the battle, both sides appear to be evenly matched.

Time is called while the battle is still in full swing and the two are still neck-and-neck. When points are tabulated, Zoey's total barely edges out Dawn's, and so Zoey is declared Top Coordinator!

Dawn has learned a lot on her journey already and she takes losing in her stride, bidding farewell to Zoey. Then Ash learns that Volkner has invited him back for their Gym Battle. So our heroes set off for their next adventure, with a cheerful Dawn as part of the gang!
