I want them back but it's unlikely for them to return
In DP you could enter Contests and perform on a stage and be judged by a crowd
I mostly know it due to the anime, but I have done it in BDSP and it was pretty fun!

Wait, what are we talking about
Intresting… I heard the bdsp were meh, but that sounds like a fun mechanic!

They won't, and thank goodness because I don't want them
Side content is one of the things missing from recent Pokémon games. It was probably a casualty of the shorter dev times. They barely have time to get the core game functioning properly, never mind side content.
That said, while it is nice to have something to flesh out the world and gameplay content beyond Pokémon battles, I don't think contests were the best example of it. They were essentially glorified Pokémon battles using different stats with a beauty contest/talent show aesthetic. I don't think the mechanic was ever properly thought out and developed, they were never that popular, and there is a reason that the number of contest halls was reduced in subsequent games, before being eliminated entirely.
I would like Gamefreak to develop more side content for their games, provided they can actually get the base game working first. But I don't want them to bring back contests.

I'm neutral but don't see them returning
Fine with me, but not really a fan of it.
