Der Pokémon-Imitations-Wettbewerb fand in DP033 statt. Ash, Rocko und Lucia nahmen daran teil.
Bei dem Wettbewerb cosplayten die Pokémon, nicht ihre Trainer. Rhonda, als Moderatorin jedoch war als Kinoso, Schwester Joy als Chaneira und Officer Rocky, die Jurymitglieder waren, als Fukano verkleidet. Ash nahm mit Pikachu teil, welches die Grimassen anderer Pokémon nachahmte.
In this contest, however, it was their Pokémon which cosplayed, not themselves, though Rhonda, Officer Jenny, and Nurse Joy were respectively dressed up as Cherrim, Growlithe, and Chansey. Ash entered Pikachu, who did many impressions of other Pokémon. Dawn entered her Piplup as a Weedle, but lost when he broke character and used a BubbleBeam. The winner of the contest was Brock and his Croagunk, who dressed up as a Politoed and continued his impression of one throughout the entire episode.
