Contest condition

A 's condition (Japanese: コンディション condition) is made up of stats that exist for use in Pokémon Contests, s, and. There are five different condition stats: ness,, ness, ness, and ness.

For each of these five conditions, there are individual contest categories where Pokémon are judged by how developed they are in the relevant stat. In order to improve a condition stat, Pokémon can be given Pokéblocks and Poffins made from.

Characteristics
A Pokémon with an enhanced condition stat will score higher when competing in a contest with the same title as that condition. A Pokémon's condition will be judged in the following rounds:


 * In the of a Pokémon Contest
 * In the Visual Competition of a Pokémon Super Contest
 * In the Introduction Round of a Pokémon Contest Spectacular

This can also be assisted with the use of scarves. A Pokémon holding a scarf corresponding to the category of the contest entered will gain bonus points in the final score.


 * Red Scarf - Boosts the ness of the Pokémon holding it
 * Blue Scarf - Boosts the of the Pokémon holding it
 * Pink Scarf - Boosts the ness of the Pokémon holding it
 * Green Scarf - Boosts the ness of the Pokémon holding it
 * Yellow Scarf - Boosts the ness of the Pokémon holding it

Moves
Every move that a Pokémon can learn is associated with one of the five conditions, and the audience reaction to a move's condition influences the excitement in the hall, as shown below.

The audience reaction affects the amount of points an appeal earns. If a move excites the audience, the Pokémon will gain one extra point, but if a move bores the audience, the Pokémon will lose one of its points. The audience indifference to a move will not affect the excitement in the hall nor the Pokémon's score.

Berries
Each Berry flavor and color represents a specific condition stat, as shown below.

Natures
In a similar fashion to its effect on battle stats, a 's Nature has an effect on the ability to raise a specific condition stat, as shown below.

Prior to the introduction of the Prism Scale in Generation V, this was the only way to evolve Feebas; however, even in games that include the Prism Scale, Feebas can evolve by level up if its Beauty condition is high enough.
