==Blurb==
Dawn and Pachirisu are practicing for the Chocovine Contest, just a day away. Pachirisu's reward for hard work is a delicious Poffin treat, but Dawn's Mamoswine and another Coordinator's Gabite deny Pachirisu even a single bite of Poffin. Pachirisu uses a new move, Super Fang, to attack Gabite for stepping on its Poffin, but doesn't even make a dent. When Ursula, Gabite's Coordinator, comes over to see what the fuss is, she recognizes Dawn as a fellow Wallace Cup competitor—and she hardly thinks Dawn deserved the win!
The next day, the Chocovine Contest begins with Dawn's Buneary displaying its aerial Ice Beam skills. Next, Jessie puts on her Jessilina disguise and shows off her Yanmega. Then it's Ursula's turn, and her Wormadam (Sandy Cloak) takes the Contest by Sandstorm. All three make it to the second round and begin to battle their way to the top, where Ursula and Gabite defeat Jessie and Carnivine. That sets the stage for a final round battle between Ursula and Dawn, and even Dawn's disobedient Mamoswine starts paying attention to the action.
Ursula's Gabite is up against Dawn's Pachirisu, and Pachirisu's spinning dodges or Super Fang attack don't affect Gabite one bit. Things look bad for Pachirisu, but Dawn keeps her cool and leads Pachirisu to a comeback. First it counters Gabite's Stone Edge with Discharge, then uses its tail to block Gabite's Dragon Claw. As Pachirisu spins into a Super Fang attack, time is called: Dawn and Pachirisu win! Even Mamoswine is just a little bit impressed. Now that Dawn has won her fourth Contest, our heroes are off to Snowpoint City for Ash's Gym battle.

The Pokémon become saddened by the loss of food, but Dawn reassures them she will make more. At that moment, Pachirisu notices there was a Poffin Mamoswine didn't eat, and rushes over to grab it, when a stomps on the Poffin, infuriating Pachirisu. Suddenly, a young peach-haired lady walks in, calling to the Gabite, while watch from atop a building. Jessie comments she recognizes the girl, and tries to put a name to her.

Ash explains that the Poffin is Pachirisu's favorite , and it was aggravated by Gabite for stepping on it. The young lady says she can fix it and hands Pachirisu one of her own Poffins. Pachirisu sniffs it, and quickly refuses it, which offends the young lady. She then notices and asks if Dawn was in the Wallace Cup. Dawn explains she won, and the young lady mockingly says she was sure it was an accident Dawn won, shocking the group. Dawn asks if the young lady was in the Wallace Cup to, and she replies yes, and gives her name: Ursula, and explains she lost in the first round. At this point, Jessie remembers seeing Ursula.

She continues to patronize Dawn, until Dawn finally cuts her off, saying they'll settle it at the Chocovine Town Contest. Ursula leaves, letting out a sinister laugh.

Finishing things up, Wormadam then uses to destroy the sculpture. 
Ash and Dawn discuss Ursula's appeal, and Ursula walks in, explaining that she had lost continually in the first round, but she was intending to win. She laughs at the idea of both her and Dawn reaching the final stage, before walking off with Gabite. The results appear, and Ursula, Jessie and Dawn are all in the final eight. Dawn compliments Buneary's performance, and asks Pachirisu if it's ready to go, and it is, nodding to her.

Brock and Ash note that Dawn may only be able to attack with Pachirisu's Super Fang. Gabite leaps into the air, launching a , and Pachirisu spins and dodges the attack.

Ash notices Mamoswine was watching the match, though it quickly goes back to sleep. Jessie says she wouldn't have missed the Contest for the world, apparently liking Ursula's use of stance before striking.
