The vivacious vigor and overwhelming zeal of
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-
like Alain,Trevor,Tierno and Sawyer.In a
surprise interview from Malva,Ash states why
he is here-to be the very best,and touch 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 rather
underestimating and disrespectful sneer to
Ash's optimism,and challenges him to a
battle,incredulous of his capabilities.Being
carried away by his enthusiasm,the raven
haired kid almost accepts the challenge,but is
immediately held back by the rest of the
gang,who admonish him for not being very
prudent and apprehensive of arriving
late.However,they exchange pep-talks with
fellow competitors like Tierno and Alain.
The next day,the grand ceremony is unfurled
with its pompous liveware.Champion Diantha
delivers an encouraging speech,and towards
the peroration,fireworks are displayed.
The computer had randomly matched up 64
trainers against each other the previous
day,and our hero is to face a guy named
Tomo,while Alain and Trevor are pitted against
each other.The matches commence
accordingly,with the first battle being that of
Alain and Trevor.

Trivia
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.
