Who will win the Sinnoh Grand Festival? *Spoilers Ahoy*
 
I like Pokemon Coordinating, so I'm excited.

The most recent Japanese title gave away the two finalists: Dawn and Zoey.

Arguments for Dawn to Win: Pokemon Coordinating Runs in Her Family, We Have Followed her Growth, Her Crowning as Top Coordinator will Segway to her Becoming Famous and Thus would Leave the Main Group

Arguments for Zoey to Win: She's a Friendly Rival that We've Followed, She Lost Out on the Aqua Ribbon, Her Crowning as Top Coordinator would Cause Dawn to Grow


I'm personally divided on the matter. While it would be a great way to bid farewell to Dawn, the anime writers do encourage growth over victory.

I think Dawn will win. Three reasons why.

1. Normally in big time rivalrys such as May/Drew or Gary/Ash the Heroe will come out the winner.

2. Like you said Dawn's arc is coming to an end. Her mom was a winner, it'd be the best way to conclude her arc. Be like her mom, winning the Grand Festival.

3. All the arc she went through, loosing so many times in the begining. It'd make up for all of it.

So, yah I do have a feeling Dawn will win.

I bet Dawn will be the female sinnoh grand festival champion or none

Bluerang1 April 24th, 2010 9:00 AM

I think Dawn will win, Zoey is too steady and it'll be easy for a slight mistake from her to show big-time.

NoRealName April 24th, 2010 9:56 AM

Zoey will win, well I think that because, I think Dawn will be the only one of the current trio to travel in the upcoming region.

DonRoyale April 24th, 2010 10:19 AM

I had originally pegged Nando to win, but since the episode's title was already spoiled we know that's not gonna happen.

My money's on Zoey. She's more focused and is overall the better coordinator. She knows what she's doing. Dawn is competent but is too prone to panic attacks.

Besides, I hate Dawn anyway. >:V

I want dawn to win this time :D I cant really explain it but it just makes it seem like all those contests we watched were for nothing :(

But, what the hell!!!! Your already giving up on danw and saying she will be leaving?!?!?! Just because may and misty left doesnt mean she will!! Its not like its tradition! Shes only had one ark... thats just stupid... (even if she does leave.. screw those stupid writers)

mynightmare April 24th, 2010 12:42 PM

I hope she wins and goes to Hoenn or Kanto so I won't have to see her annoying Piplup anymore. D:<

Semidos April 24th, 2010 3:18 PM

I think Zoey will win. She seems to be more skilled.

Izanagi April 24th, 2010 3:39 PM

That is COMPLETELY irrelevant to the thread.

Anyway, I hope Dawn loses. She probably will looking at main character's track records.

StarGirl April 24th, 2010 9:12 PM

if Dawn lose to Zoey....definately pokemon black and white will be in late or early 2011 as there will orange island grand festival after sinnoh arc episode 1 to 199 and battle frontier arc in episode 200 to 250

Milk April 24th, 2010 9:21 PM

Dawn is going to win, as most people have heard white and black is coming out and so is a new arc i believe.

let us see that dawn gonna win or lose in episode 177

Milk April 24th, 2010 9:25 PM

lol funny how right after dawn vs zoey they show Goodbye Team Rocket! Meowth's Love!

GlitchCity April 25th, 2010 7:04 PM

As much as I hate her, Dawn will most likely win. Pokemon seasons tend to have a happy ending.

crimsonstorm April 25th, 2010 7:42 PM

I think Zoey will end up winning and that'll inspire Dawn to become stronger.

Haza April 25th, 2010 8:52 PM

Ugh, If I have to deal with Dawns annoying voice any longer I'm done with the anime (prolly no :P) but I really think she is going to win... and Zoey will realize that one can do normal battles and be a great coordinator at once.

ShadowElliot April 25th, 2010 9:47 PM

I think Dawn will win like in a last chance moment before she is about to lose...

Pokemon has to have happy endings.

Well, I like Dawn and would love for her to stay.
There was a spoiler saying the team would be splitting up at the end of D/P.
That will likely mean Dawn's leaving, not sure about Brock cuz they also said he'd find a dream at the end of the series. Now, that could mean he's either getting a side quest or just leaving?

Diablerie May 4th, 2010 1:35 PM

I think Zoey will win... that seems to be the trend for Pokemon Leagues and Grand Festivals.

But I think they'll do a season on the Platinum/HeartGold/SoulSilver Battle Frontier, like they did with the Emerald one, so if thats true, then this probably won't be Dawn's last arc.

Iceshadow3317 May 4th, 2010 5:56 PM

There isn't the 5th gen seaosn starts late rthis year in Japan. I don't think Dawn will win. May didn't win and neather did Ash in his leagues. ( So far )

Finnix May 4th, 2010 6:12 PM

It could be a tie like in the last episode of frontier. Ash and May split the ribbon in half xD

Sadly, I don't think a Leaf Blade could cut a trophy in half...

Serene Grace May 4th, 2010 10:45 PM

I want Dawn to win but, if I know the Pokemon anime well enough, Dawn and Zoey will have a huge battle where it'll be incredibly tight. The Pokemon will probably have some kind of stand off and then Zoey's Pokemon will come out stronger while Dawn's one falls forcing Dawn to cry about how she lost but then, for some reason, become stronger because of it. :/

Y.. yeah, that's my thoughts on this matter anyway.

Sweet Smoochum May 5th, 2010 9:34 PM

Since Dawn only got to travel through one region instead of two like Misty and May did, she should win the Grand Festival to make up for it. It would be unexpected to see her win and would be a nice change. As long as she doesn't cry, I'll be happy.
