March 3rd is Princess Day

Princess Day (Japanese: ひなまつり Doll Festival) is a holiday celebrated throughout the Pokémon world. It is the equivalent of the real-world Japanese holiday Hinamatsuri (means Doll Festival, but sometimes referred to as Girls' Day).
Like in the real world, it is traditional for girls to display a set of ornamental dolls representing the Emperor's Court. It is commemorated by various events, girls' only Pokémon tournaments, and other activities and sales, which are for girls only.
Princess Day was shown in the anime episode Princess vs. Princess. Misty and Jessie reminisced about past Princess Days, while competing for a prized Pokémon doll collection.
