However, a red-head Trainer, with a Kabuki Trim Furfrou is spotted who gives a disrespectful sneer to Ash's optimism, and challenges him to a battle, skeptical of his capabilities. Being carried away by his enthusiasm, Ash almost accepts the challenge, but is immediately held back by the rest of the gang, who admonish him for not being very prudent and worry about arriving late. However, they exchange pep-talks with fellow competitors like Tierno and Alain. The next day, the grand ceremony is unfurled. Champion Diantha delivers an encouraging speech, and towards the end, fireworks are displayed.

The participating Trainers inaugurate the Lumiose Conference. Ash and gang arrive in Lumiose City, and it's finally the time for the biggest showdown. Familiar faces are spotted, such as Alain, Trevor, Tierno, and Sawyer. In a surprise interview from Malva, Ash states why he is here: to be the very best, and reach the apex of his pursuit of power, as a Pokemon Trainer.

However, a red-head Trainer, with a Kabuki Trim Furfrou is spotted who gives a disrespectful sneer to Ash's optimism, and challenges him to a battle, skeptical of his capabilities. Being carried away by his enthusiasm, Ash almost accepts the challenge, but is immediately held back by the rest of the gang, who admonish him for not being very prudent and worry about arriving late. However, they exchange pep-talks with fellow competitors like Tierno and Alain. The next day, the grand ceremony is unfurled.

The title card segment focuses on Ash for this episode

Errors

  • In the long shot of the two Mega Charizard, the tips of Mega Charizard X's wings are blue instead of black.
  • During Ash's battle in the hallway, the grey color on Ash's left sneaker is larger than normal and the area at the front is red instead of white.
  • In the split second it is on screen before showing Alain as the winner, the scoreboard at the end of the battle incorrectly shows him having used Blastoise and Ludicolo (both of which display as having been knocked out).
  • Like in Rivals: Today and Tomorrow! and A Meeting of Two Journeys!, when Ash holds up Greninja's Poké Ball the white center and black band around the white button is much larger than normal.
  • In between the transformation of Ash-Greninja, Greninja is shown to have the pulse meter on its wrist which wasn't shown in between the battle earlier.
