| The episode opens with a montage consisting
| |
| of the footages of the important segments of
| |
| Ash's journey in the league so far. Afterwards,
| |
| the scene shifts to the stadium of the Lumiose
| |
| Conference, where Remo and Alain are having
| |
| a full battle, the winner of which will proceed
| |
| to the finals.
| |
|
| |
| Alain's Charizard finishes off Remo's Rhyperior
| |
| with a vicious blow from a Dragon Claw. The
| |
| scoreboard reveals that, Alain has managed to
| |
| defeat all Pokemon of Remo sans Garchoo ,
| |
| his lead Pokemon, while only losing his
| |
| (Alain's) Metagross.
| |
|
| |
| Sitting in the gallery Ash is mesmerized by
| |
| Alain's unparalleled strength. Clemont reveals
| |
| that, so far in the league he had have to use
| |
| only two Pokemon of his party- Charizard and
| |
| Metagross.
| |
|
| |
| Back in the battlefield, Remo sends out the
| |
| trump card of his team- Garchoo the
| |
| Garchomp, quite determined to beat Alain's
| |
| Charizard. Alain too, vows to wield everything
| |
| in this battle, in order to advance to the finals.
| |
| Remo opens the fight with mega evolving
| |
| Garchoo. Mega Garchomp starts off by firing a
| |
| Draco Meteor, which Alain commands his
| |
| Charizard to dodge. Though Charizard is able
| |
| to evade the meteors quite briskly, yet a lone
| |
| meteor strikes it, dealing some damage.
| |
| Without any further ado, Alain too, Mega
| |
| Evolves his Charizard into Mega Charizard X.
| |
|
| |
| Remo has his Mega Garchomp use Dragon
| |
| Rush, but Mega Charizard X counters it with
| |
| Dragon Claw. However, to Remo's
| |
| astonishment, Alain commands Mega
| |
| Charizard X to seize its opponent by its arm,
| |
| while both are mid-air, and hurl it towards the
| |
| ground. While Mega Garchomp is sent
| |
| crashing towards the ground, Mega Charizard
| |
| X hits it with a Flamethrower. Both trainers
| |
| then, in unison, command their respective
| |
| Pokemon to use Dragon Claw, but Mega
| |
| Charizard X is the one to land the blow first ,
| |
| and Mega Garchomp is knocked out, making
| |
| Alain the first finalist.
| |
|
| |
| Ash is seen cheering up his entire team to
| |
| give their best in his upcoming battle against
| |
| Sawyer. Sawyer too, is no less excited to have
| |
| Ash, the person he idolizes, as his opponent.
| |
|
| |
| Ash's friends are then spotted in the gallery,
| |
| discussing and speculating on the ensuing
| |
| battle of Ash and Sawyer. Clemont
| |
| acknowledges Sawyer as a potent threat to
| |
| Ash, since he has already defeated his
| |
| apparent mentor once. Tierno notes that, due
| |
| to closely investigating and scrutinizing Ash's
| |
| fighting style, Sawyer has a clear perception to
| |
| presume Ash's strategy.
| |
|
| |
| The two enter the battlefield, and both vow to
| |
| give their absolute efforts into this decisive
| |
| battle, and the referee explains the rules, of
| |
| which, the most noteworthy is that, when half
| |
| the party of a trainer is knocked out, there will
| |
| be a change in the battlefield, and an interval
| |
| will be declared.
| |
|
| |
| In the VIP seats, Professor Sycamore and
| |
| Champion Diantha are seen, eager to
| |
| witness an exciting and heated battle. Team
| |
| Rocket , on the other hand, is not too happy,
| |
| because as per the orders of Malva, they must
| |
| cover the entire match . Jessie finds making a
| |
| film on herself a more viable option, than
| |
| reporting her arch-enemy's deeds with every
| |
| minute detail, however.
| |
|
| |
| Ash sends out Hawlucha against Sawyer's
| |
| Slaking. Hawlucha is wearing a strange outfit,
| |
| the unknown source of which confuses
| |
| Clemont , but Serena reveals that it was she
| |
| who designed its new apparels , as prior to the
| |
| battle, Hawlucha complained to her about its
| |
| old cape being tattered and ragged. She
| |
| believes that, the new outfit will reflect
| |
| Hawlucha's dignified and distinguished status
| |
| as the forest champion.
| |
|
| |
| Ash makes the first move with a Karate Chop
| |
| from Hawlucha, which directly hits Slaking,
| |
| barely damaging it. Next, Ash tries a High
| |
| Jump Kick, followed by an X-Scissor ,
| |
| succeeded by a barrage of Karate Chops-
| |
| none of the attacks is able to break through
| |
| Slaking's impervious endurance.
| |
|
| |
| Ash's friends and the others are completely
| |
| clueless about what is going on. But Clemont
| |
| correctly deciphers that, Hawlucha has so far
| |
| battled against retaliating opponents, but an
| |
| opponent like Slaking, which just endures its
| |
| blows, without countering them, must have
| |
| made Hawlucha confounded and exhausted.
| |
| Sawyer has his Slaking use Slack Off, restoring
| |
| its energy . Ash tries to repeatedly attack it,
| |
| commanding Hawlucha to use a High Jump
| |
| Kick and an X-Scissor in quick succession, but
| |
| Slaking is unperturbed and takes both hits
| |
| with ease.
| |
|
| |
| Ash orders his Hawlucha to use Flying Press
| |
| on Slaking, but suddenly Sawyer becomes
| |
| proactive , and tells his Slaking to use
| |
| Counter. With a hard-hitting punch,
| |
| Hawlucha, which was swooping down to
| |
| execute the attack, is sent flying. Upon
| |
| impacting a tree-trunk, it falls down
| |
| unconscious,unable to battle.
| |
|
| |
| Ash compliments Sawyer on his superb
| |
| strategy, and sends out Talonflame, against
| |
| Slaking. Talonflame uses Steel Wing, which
| |
| Sawyer tries to counter with Hammer Arm,
| |
| which it does, but abruptly, Talonflame
| |
| changes its track,and lands the blow on
| |
| Slaking's torso, and it falls on its back.
| |
|
| |
| Sawyer again tries to replenish its HP with
| |
| Slack Off, but Ash is not caught off guard this
| |
| time, he orders Talonflame to use Flame
| |
| Charge, before Slaking was completely healed.
| |
| The attack severely damages Slaking, and a
| |
| follow up Brave Bird from Talonflame
| |
| ultimately overpowers it.
