This is a speculation thread for the next Contests, where do you think they'll be, who will participate and what Pokémon they'd use
You can say either how you want it to be or what you think will really happen

I'd like it to be this way...
We know the next Contest is going to be in an anime only town right?
Dawn should use Pachi and pass the performance (to make up for its mess up in unofficial/Floaroma) and than lose the battles with Mamoswine
Jessie should win this with Seviper
I guess Kenny or Nando might be there too

Jessie should get her fourth ribbon in an episode focused on her in a Contest without Dawn with Wobbuffet and than show the twerp watch her on TV win her last ribbon with Yanmega

After the lose with Mamo I think Dawn will be in only two more Contests and win them so...
Ribbon 4 should be Ambipom for performance and Buneary for battles (Bunny should get revenge on losing Jubilife's battles round)
Ribbon 5 should be Pip in performance (you just know Pip will be involved with Dawn's last ribbon) and Pachi in battles (except its one battle that it lost in the unofficial Contest and its one unseen battle in Wallace Cup, Pachi didn't get a battle round for itself)
These last two Contests hopefully give us at least one one-shot Coordinator and I guess Zoey will show up as well
I think the last one might be in Sunnyshore or close to there, that's where Jasmine show up in the games right? if so than hopefully she'll appear there in the anime too and participate at this contest
This way each of Dawn's Pokémon won her a ribbon both by performance and by battles

I also hope we'll get to see Kenny and Zoey use Prinplup and Glameow for performance rather than battles for once (and for Glameow I mean do a performance alone)

I would like to see James lend his Pokémon to Jessie again for some of her wins.
For example, I think it would be great to have Jessie use Mime Jr. in a Contest and win! Pachirisu can also be a nice opponent to Mime Jr. (just watch how they both acted in DP103! They really fit each other)
Hopefully Jessie's next wins will be properly shown to us and not just a few seconds like her last win.
I like Jessie and think the writers should bother a little more with her wins, but of course I am happy they at least let her win now!
 
Oh, Mime Jr. and Pachi really are a cute pair! I can see them in a Contest battle eventually if Jessie continue to use James' Poké but it seems like she decided to stick to her own Poké now which I think she should do if she really wants to seriously be a Coordinator... and she also should bother to train sometimes
Too bad Cacnea never did a Contest battle, it only did performance
I think all the other TRio Poké (since AG started) did at least once the performance round and at least once the battles round, except of Cacnea who did only performance
 
Wobuffet doing an appeal round would just not work. Anyone who isn't an amateur would simply hold Jessie at a standstill or use defensive attacks(case in point Jessie's first battle in Kanto).

Maybe she can use Carnivine again, she made it to the final round of the first contest with it.

The rest of your ideas are good.
 
A good Coordinator will find ways to make a nice performance with any Pokémon
I'm sure Wobbuffet can do it, especially since we see Coordinators sometimes use items in their perofrmance so it won't have to rely on its attacks
 
Maybe thye appeals she can use it in(with a completely different routine oher thabn flying) but unless the opponent has never battled a Wobuffet, heard of it, or lived under a rock, than she will easily lose with it.
 
I expect Yanmega to beat Mamoswine easily in the first round of the battle round, and then Jessie go straight to win the contest!
 
I expect two out of the three wins Musashi needs will be primarily off screen like her second ribbon. The last win will be in a regular contest episode. It'd be nice if she could beat Hikari to set up a Grand Festival rivalry but I think that's pretty doubtful. I really have no idea what pokemon she'll use. I'm against her using Kojiro's, but I think she might not have a choice since she can't just use her three and expect to get very far in the Grand Festival. I think whatever happens with Musashi will end up being surprising.

I think Hikari will lose the next one because of Manmoo then go on to win the next two straight. Manmoo wont obey her until the Grand Festival. Potchama will definitely be in the battle round of her last contest.
 
This is how I want them to go:

Next Contest:

- Jessie, Kenny, Dawn, and Nando participate
- All four make it to next round
- Jessie knocks out Kenny (again); Yanmega vs. Alakazam
- Dawn gets beaten by Nando; Mamoswine vs. Roselia
- Jessie beats Nando with her Yanmega vs. his Roselia

Jessie gets her third ribbon. :]

Then, Dawn can win the next contest after that against a one-shot rival to earn her fourth ribbon. Jessie can once again earn another ribbon off-screen similarly to the way she did in DP102. The following contest can consist of Jessie and Dawn going against each other, in which Dawn wins. Then there can be some episode where Ash and Brock go out training in some town, while Dawn decides to go watch the contest in that town on her own since she already has her five ribbons. In this contest, Jessie can be participating and earn her fifth ribbon this way.

Nando beat Zoey! I highly doubt Jessie can beat him. Plus don't you think that Kenny losing to Jessie again would be too much?
 
Jessie could possibly beat him by the score. Nando isn't unbeatable. D: But yeah I guess Kenny losing to Jessie would be a bit much but oh well. Maybe Dawn could get beaten by Jessie (because she used Mamoswine), and Nando could beat Kenny. *shrug*
 
You mean a pretty/cute Pokemon? That's not really Musashi's style. I can't see the writers doing that.
 
Hey, Jessie has always been hoping for pretty/cute Pokémon like Pichu, Smoochum, Beautifly etc. So why not fulfilling her dream eventually? It would be very convenient for the writers too!

Team Rocket isn't allowed to have their dreams be fulfilled. It's a miracle Musashi has one ribbon, let alone two.
 
Wow! I'm surprised that such theories are come out from the mouth of a Rocket Fan! (Sorry if I'm mistaken)
 
I think all Rocket fans acknowledge the fact that the whole point of Musashi, Kojiro, and Nyasu's characters are to be the lovable losers. Having crappy lives and rarely succeeding is just who they are.
 
Shouldn't you at least dream of them being succeed? I appreciate you for being so realistic though.

Rocket Girl does have a point, and Jessie just making it to the festival would be enough. Doesn't reallly matter how far she gets.

Besides, them being losers is just who they are.
 
Yeah, if Jessie makes it to the GF I do expect Dawn to beat her in the first battle round. Just getting to the GF is good enough.

I suspect in the GF Dawn will beat Jessie, then Kenny, and then either win/lose to Zoey and then Zoey'll lose to whoever becomes the champion.

I'm also wondering if Dawn will beat Zoey though. The funny thing is Ash and May couldn't beat Gary and Drew until their final tournaments of their eras, but that doesn't mean Dawn can't beat Zoey before DP ends.
