(Episode opens early in the morning with the night

sky beginning to fade away. Some of the stars
have disappeared, the moon sets in the west,
cumulus clouds moving across the area, and a
calm & settling atmosphere envelops the entire
area. Now, we pan down to the Pokemon Center,
and we fade in on the guest room, where the gang
is sleeping. Someone knocks on the door and
Pikachu abruptly awake.)
Pikachu: Pika!
(He looks over to the door and hear the knocking
again.)
(He nudges at Ashs head until he awakens. He
sits up and stretches his arms out.)
Ash: (yawns.) What is it, Pikachu?
Pikachu: Pika-chu.
(He nudges his head over to the door as if to say,
Theres someone at the door.)
Ash (comprehending): Oh, okay.
(He gets up out of bed, walks over and opens the
door. Siara stands in the doorway.)
Siara: Morning, Ash.
Ash: (yawns.) Morning, Siara. What are you doing
up so early?

Siara: Were going to do some quick stargazing

before Sunrise.
Ash (realizing): I see.
Siara: Want to come do it with us?
Ash: You bet.
Pikachu: Pika-chu.
(He goes over to the bed and gets his sneakers.
Just then, Serena, Cilan, Iris and Clemont awaken
and sit up in their beds.)
Cilan: (yawns and grunts.) Whats going on, Ash?
Ash: Were going out to do some stargazing.
Cilan: Oh. Hold on, well be right up.
(He and the others get out of bed and they leave
the room. Now, they go out to the hallway, where
they over to the next room and knock on the door.
Janie opens it up.)
Janie: (yawns.) Whats up?
Ada: Want to come out and do some stargazing?
Janie: All right, sure.
(Trevor gets up from his bed and the two and put
their shoes on. Now, they exit the Center and head
over to a hillock not too far away from it.)
Serena: How long will it be before Sunrise?

(Ada checks the time on her Poketch.)

Ada: About twenty-six minutes.
Serena: All right, then.
(They put out a large blanket across the grass and
set up some chairs in place. Now, they all take
their places. Fade into seven and a half minutes
later, where theyre looking up at the stars that are
still there. Each of them is looking up in a different
direction.)
Siara: Take a look at this star over here. Thats
Procyon.
Cilan: It looks beautiful.
Janie: Sure does, but look at this one. Its even
brighter than that.
Quinn: Thats Sirius, and its the brightest one
youll find up there at night.
Trevor: Thats pretty cool. You know, Quinn, youre
pretty good.
Quinn: Why, thank you Trevor. Now, if you look
over this way, theres Orions Belt.
(Now, we pan over to Ash, Iris, Siara and Serena
scanning around for constellations.)
Serena: Look, theres the Big Dipper.
Iris: Good eye, Serena.

Serena: Thanks.
Ash: And theres the Little Dipper right there.
Pikachu: Pika.
Siara: Thats very good, Ash, and you can also see
Polaris right there.
(She points to the tip of the Little Dipper.)
Iris: Oh, it looks pretty.
Siara: Mmm-hmm. Now, look right across from it.
Thats Cassiopeia.
Ash: Oh, thats pretty awesome.
Pikachu (agrees): Pika.
(Now, we pan over to Lex, Ada, Clemont and Diana
chatting.)
Clemont: I hope you dont mind of I ask, but how
often do you guys come out here this early?
Ada: On several occasions, but its usually when
there are certain astronomical events happen, like
when certain planets or stars can be seen at a
certain time.
Clemont: Oh, I get you now.
Lex: Yep.
(Lex scans across the sky and spots two objects.)

Lex: Ooh, what perfect timing. (Calling over.) Hey,

guys. Come and look at this.
(The others come over and look up in the direction
hes pointing at.)
Iris (bewildered): Uh, what is it, Lex?
Lex: You see those three bright spots there? Thats
Venus, Mars and Jupiter.
Serena: Really?
Lex: Yep.
Ash: Wow! (curiously) Howd you know thats what
they were?
Lex: Well, Siara showed them to us one night a
couple of years back.
Ash (understanding): I see.
(Now, we fade in fifteen and a half minutes later,
where the gangs now chatting.)
Trevor: So, heres another question: what were
some of your personal favorite scenes that you
worked on?
Quinn: Hmm, I would have to say itd be the one
where this Rapidish was running so fast that it felt
like it was flying. Wasnt easy to do, I can tell you
that.

Diana: Mine would be this battle between a

Charizard and Tornadus. It was intense and very
challenging, but it was worth it in the end.
Janie: Oh, thats pretty cool. (She turns over to
Siara.) How about you, Siara? Whats your
favorite challenge?
Siara: Hmm, thatd currently be working out the
flexibility of the androids arms & legs. Figuring out
how much each joint can move was quite an
undertaking.
Janie: Oh, thats interesting.
(Ada checks the time again. Its two and a half
minutes till six-thirty.)
Ada: Its time, guys.
(They sit up and look out to the horizon line. Now,
a purple light starts to illuminate the sky a bit and
the Sun ascends along. The golden yellow light
sweeps over the entire area, a few clouds roll in
and a red-orange light fills the sky with a bit of
blue starting to fade in.)
All (in wonder and awe): Whoa!
Pikachu (in wonder and awe): Pi-ka!
Axew (in wonder and awe): Axew!
Serena: Isnt it beautiful?

Ash (agreeing): It sure is.

Pikachu (agreeing): Pika.
(They continue watching it as it rises. A few
moments later, they get up from their spots, fold
up the blanket & chairs, pick them up and head on
back to the Pokemon Center. Now, they each go
into the bathroom, clean themselves up and
change into their casual clothing. Afterwards, they
regroup back in the bedroom.)
Serena: That was very refreshing.
Cilan: You said it.
Ash: All right, now how should the training plan go
for today?
(They all think about it for a moment.)
Clemont: Ahh. We could use this training course
Ive been working on. However, the one catch to it
is, only about three people can use it at a time.
Iris: Its okay, Clemont. Thatll work just fine. We
could spar off with one another sand then switch
out.
Ada: Yeah, and you can do some meditating with
us, if youd like.
Cilan: Okay, that sounds good. Now, as for the
course, how about we start it off by strengthening
the physical attacks first?

Ash: Thats good. Then, after that, well work on

the special attacks.
Iris: Sounds like a plan to me.
Ash (enthusiastically): Okay, lets do it!
Pikachu (enthusiastically): Pika-chu!
(They exit the room and head back outside again.
Now, a brief montage goes on where we see them
doing warm-up exercises, from leg & arm
stretches, turns, to knee and hip rotations and a
short lap around the center, all while Clemont is
assembling the training course. Montage concludes
where Clemont is finishing setting up the training
course. It consists of movable targets, a couple of
heavy bags, a treadmill and some robotic hands.)
Lex: Wow, this looks impressive, Clemont.
Clemont: Well, thank you.
(He presses a button and activates the course.
The targets & treadmill move about and the arms
get into a blocking or defensive stance. Just then,
Serena taps Ash on his shoulder.)
Serena: Hey, Ash.
Ash: What is it, Serena?
Serena (very certain): I was wondering, could you
please spar off against me?

Ash: Sure, of course.

Serena (thankfully): Great.
(They walk over to a small battle field, then they
go into their corners and get into their beginning
stances.)
Ash: All right, lets go Pikachu.
Pikachu: Pika-chu.
(He hops off his shoulder and gets into his battling
stance.)
Serena: Come on out, Pancham!
(She tosses the Pokeball and Pancham comes out
of it.)
Pancham: Pan-cham!
Ash: You go first, Serena.
Serena: Okay, Pancham use Arm Thrust!
(Panchams hands glow white and strikes Pikachu
with them, dealing damage.)
Ash: Pikachu, Iron Tail!
Pikachu: Pika!
(His tail becomes surrounded in white sparkles and
then gets surrounded in a white outline. Then, it
turns to iron and swings it at Pancham, doing
damage to it.)

Serena: Use Stone Edge!

Pancham: Paaaaannnnn-cham!
(He slams his hand on the ground, causing glowing
light blue pillars of rock to appear and rush
towards Pikachu.)
Ash: Quick, dodge it and use ThunderBolt!
Pikachu: Pika!
(He swiftly moves out of the way of the attack.)
Pikachu: Pika-chuuu!!!!
(He releases a powerful bolt of yellow electricity at
Pancham.)
Serena: Dodge it!
(Pancham swiftly evades the blast.)
Serena: Now, use Dark Pulse!
(He creates a ball of black and purple circles in
each hand. Then, he combines them and fires
them as a beam at Pikachu, directly hitting him
and doing a good amount of damage.)
Ash: Great move there, Serena.
Serena: Thanks, Ash.
Ash: Pikachu, Quick Attack!
Pikachu: Pika!

(He runs fast towards Pancham and a white outline

surrounds him. He hits Pancham, doing damage to
it. Now, we pan back over to the training course.
Iris, Clemont, and Janie get into their positions.)
Iris: Ready to do it, Axew?
Axew (affirmatory): Axew.
Iris: Good.
(He gets into his starting position.)
Janie: Its time, Nidorino!
(She throws the Pokeball and Nidorino emerges
from it.)
Nidorino: Nido.
Clemont: Lets go, Bunnelby!
(He throws the PokeBall and Bunnelby emerges
from it.)
Bunnelby: Bunn-el.
Iris: Axew, Dragon Claw!
(Both of Axews claws glow light blue and it slashes
at a target, but one of the robotic hands blocks the
attack.)
Iris (encouraging): Come on, Axew. Try again.
Axew: Ax-ew.

(One of the robotic arms throws a left hook, but

Axew narrowly evades it. Then, he goes for the
target and slashes it on the bullseye.)
Iris: Way to go, Axew!
Axew: Axew!
(Now, we look over to Clemont and Bunnelby
working with a large heavy bag with a bullseye on
it.)
Clemont: Bunnelby, Double Slap!
(Its ears glow white and it repeatedly smacks the
heavy bag with them.)
Clemont: Thats it. Keep it up.
(Now, we look over to see Nidorino gets on the
treadmill. It starts up and it goes at a fast, but
steady speed.)
Janie: All right, Nidorino, Take Down!
(Nidorinos body becomes surrounded by a blue
aura and charges toward the target, and just then,
two robotic arms throw left & right hooks at him,
but he swiftly avoids each punch, then leaps
forward and hits the target in the bullseye.)
Janie: All right, Nidorino! You got it now!
(We pan over to Ada, Diana, Cilan and Trevor
preparing to meditate. They sit on their knees in a

relaxing position. Now, they close their eyes, take

a deep breath and calmly focus.)
Trevor: This feels nice.
Ada: Oh, good. Now, concentrate your energy.
(They continue to focus & concentrate. Now, a
montage commences where we cross fade to a
half hour later, where everyones switched up, with
Cilan sparring off against Janie, Iris & Serena
mediating and then switch up again later. Montage
concludes with them finishing up their last training
sessions.)
Clemont: Whew, that was intense.
Ash: Yeah, but its all worth it.
Pikachu: Pika-Pikachu.
(Just then, Serenas stomach grumbles.)
Serena: Oh. I guess its time to eat.
Cilan: Hey, no problem. Clemont and I will fix up
brunch for us.
(They all head back onside the Center. Fade in to a
couple of minutes later, where everyones sitting a
large table.)
Ash: What sort of plan could Clemont and Cilan
have for this brunch?

Serena: Who knows? Maybe itll be something

special.
(Cilan and Clemont come over to them and Cilan
hand each of them six laminated menu cards.
Three of them have breakfast items on them, and
the other three have lunch items.)
Ash (bewildered): Uh, what are these cards for?
Cilan: Its easy: all you do is select one breakfast
and lunch item you want from each set and then
hand us back your selections.
Ash (comprehending): Ahh, I get you now.
(They carefully look over the items, then each pick
out one from each set and hand their selections
over to Clemont. He carefully scans them.)
Clemont: Okay, then. Well have them ready in a
few minutes.
(Cilan takes up the remaining cards and he &
Clemont head into the kitchen.)
Janie: Those two sure know how to cook, dont
they?
Ash: Oh, you have no idea.
Iris: Yeah, some of what they make is amazing.
Trevor: Ahh, thats cool. (He turns over to the
Mission Guides.) How about you some of you?

Ada: We sure do. Lex and I make a lot of unique

dishes that you should try sometime.
Janie: All right, sounds great.
Siara: So, while were still on the subject, there are
certain aspects about nutrition that many people
dont know of or tend to overlook.
Trevor: Okay, like what?
Siara: Ill show you.
(She gets out the Pokepilot out from her pocket,
turns it on, goes through it and comes to a section
on the various parts of nutrition.)
Siara: To start with, youve always heard that water
is vital for your body, and theres a good reason for
it. Not only is every bodily fluid based around it,
but it also helps cleanse any bodily wastes,
lubricates and protects your joints, organs, nose
and mouth and it maintains your bodys
temperature.
Ash: Thats a very cool thing.
Siara: Mmm-hmm, but theres more. Next, theres
the importance of carbohydrates. In recent years,
many people have claimed that theyre bad for
you, but in actuality, theyre good for your body.
Simple and complex carbohydrates are broken
down into glucose molecules during digestion and

then are absorbed into cells where theyre used as

an energy source. In addition, the amount of
energy certain foods provide is measured in units
of heat, or calories.
Serena: Oh, thats very interesting. What else is
there?
Siara: Next up is how vital protein is for your
growth. Its comprised of nine essential amino
acids that your body uses to create tissues and
vital enzymes. On average, a person needs 50 to
sixty grams per day, and it can be obtained quite
easily, from eating meat, of course, bread and
drinking milk.
Trevor: What now?
Quinn: Mind if I handle these next ones, Siara?
Siara: No, go right ahead.
(She hands the Pokepilot over to Quinn.)
Quinn: Now, this next one is something you already
know about: vitamin & minerals are crucial to body
functions, as well as playing a role in preventing
certain diseases. However, what you may not
know about is that some vitamins & minerals are
toxic to your body if theyre ingested in large
quantities, like Vitamin A, Iron and Niacin. So be
sure you know which ones youll need more of than
others.

Iris: Okay, well keep that one in mind. Now what?

Quinn: Another way some can get nutrients is by
taking supplements, which are just nutrients in
either pill or liquid form. Whenever anyone takes
one of these, its usually to help round out a
balanced diet they could be on or provide
protection against a deficit. However, the
important thing to remember about them is,
theyre not meant as a substitute for gaining
nutrients from food and cant help fight off against
diseases.
Ash: Okay, is there anything else?
Quinn: Yes, there is: the importance of the food
labels. You always see them on cans or boxes, and
with good reason. Theyre meant to tell you what
the ingredients of specific foods are, what the
serving sizes are, how many calories they hold, and
of course, what vitamins & minerals are in them.
They can also be helpful if youre planning heartier
meals.
Ash: Well, those are all very interesting facts there.
Siara: Mmm-hmm, they are. So, what do you guys
say we do some trivia?
Iris: Okay, then.
Axew: Axew.

(Pan up to an upper panel displaying three images

associated with different nutritional aspects.)
Siara: Ready to do it, guys?
Serena: Yeah, we are.
Siara: Okay, then. First, what makes protein
important for your body?
Serena: Theyre made of nine amino acids and the
body uses them to create tissues and enzymes.
Quinn: Thats very good, Serena. Next, what are
the food labels meant to tell you?
Trevor: What ingredients and vitamins & minerals
they have, the serving size and how many calories
they have.
Siara: All right, Trevor. Why are carbohydrates
good for the body?
Janie: Theyre broken down into glucose molecules,
absorbed into the cells and are used for energy.
Siara: You got it, Janie. You guys did great there.
Ash: Thanks, Siara and Quinn.
Pikachu: Pika-chu.
Quinn and Siara: Youre welcome.
(Quinn turns the Pokepilot off, hands it back to
Siara and she puts it in her pocket. Now, Cilan and
Clemont exit out of the kitchen with everyones

food on plates. Ash and Lex get apple-stuffed

French toast and ham & cheese crescent roll-ups,
Iris and Diana each get blueberry & almond crepes
and a hummus and prosciutto wrap, Janie gets a
hash brown omelet and a ham and potato soup,
Serena gets blueberry & almond crepes and a ham
& cheese crescent roll-ups, Trevor receives an
apple-stuffed French toast and a hummus and
prosciutto wrap, Siara gets a hash brown omelet
and a ham & potato soup, Ada has an Applestuffed French Toast and a ham & potato soup and
Quinn gets a. Cilan has some ham & cheese rollups and blueberry & almond crepes and Clemont
has a hash brown omelet and a hummus and
prosciutto. They all start to dig in to their food.)
All (contended): Mmm.
Pikachu (contended): Pika.
Axew (contended): Axew.
Serena (complementing): You guys outdid
yourselves with this.
Iris (agreeing): You said it.
Clemont: Why, thank you. We make a good team,
dont we?
Cilan: Indeed, we do Clemont.

(Cross fade to several minutes later, where they

finish up their meals. Ash clears up his plate and
puts it aside.)
Ash: Oh, that really hit the spot.
Trevor: So, guys. Before we get back to training,
how about we do another round of trivia?
Serena: Okay, but lets see if the audience is up for
it before we start.
Janie: Mind if I handle this one?
Ash: No, go right ahead Janie.
Janie: All right.
(She turns over to the audience.)
Janie (casually): You guys up for doing this? (She
casually waits for an answer from the audience for
one second.) Oh, okay then.
(Side wipe to three other images displaying
different aspects of nutrition.)
Ash (V.O.): Okay, lets do it. What makes water so
important for your body? (He casually waits for an
answer from the audience for one and a half
second.) It protects the joints, organs, nose and
mouth and it cleanses any waste out. You got it.
Iris (V.O.): Which vitamins & minerals are toxic if
theyre taken in large amounts? (She casually

waits for an answer from the audience for one and

a half seconds.) Vitamin A, Iron and Niacin. Okay,
then.
Trevor (V.O.): (He casually waits for an answer from
the audience for one and a half seconds.) Round
out a balanced diet and protect against any
deficits. All right.
(Dissolve back to the gang and Serena casually
speaking to the audience.)
Serena (casually): Great work there, guys.
Ash: All right, lets get to it.
(They get up from their seats and head back
outside to the training course. Clemont takes
down the robotic arms and heavy bags and puts up
attack energy absorbers & reflectors in their
place.)
Clemont: Here we go.
(He presses a button and activates them. The
reflectors and absorbers move up and down.)
Ash: Okay, lets get this started.
(Now, a montage goes on where they get engage
in the second half of their training session.)
Serena: Sylveon, use Fairy Wind!

(Sylveon pulls her feelers together, and the air

around them start to glow light blue. Then, she
spreads them wide open, sending a strong gust of
wind at a target, but an attack absorber blocks the
attack and absorbs the attack. Now, she performs
the attack again, and the absorber intercepts, but
she redirects it to go around it and hits the target.)
Serena: Nice job, Sylveon!
(We look over to Ash and Oshawatt dealing with
another target.)
Ash: Oshawatt, use Water Gun!
Oshawatt: Osha!
(He fires a spiraling stream of water from his
mouth at the target, but one attack reflector
deflects the attack right back at him.)
Ash: Quick, dodge it!
(He swift evades the blast.)
Ash: Now, Water Gun again!
(He fires a spiraling stream of water from his
mouth at the target, which bypasses the attack
reflector and hits in the bullseye.)
Ash: All right, way to go!
Oshawatt: Oshawatt!
(Now, we look over to Trevor and his Clefable.)

Trevor: Clefable, Shock Wave!

Clefable: Cle-fable!
(It gets surrounded in blue electricity and fires a
beam of blue electricity at the target. One of the
attack reflectors tries to block it, but the attack
goes around it and hits the target.)
Trevor: Yeah, youre getting it.
(We pan over to Iris and Clemont meditating with
Ada and Diana. Now, we look over to Cilan
sparring off with Janie.)
Cilan: Now, Stunfisk Mud Bomb!
(Stunfisk jumps into the air, takes in a deep breath
and fires a ball of brown mud from its mouth at
Gallade, doing damage to him.)
Janie: Gallade, counter with Magical Leaf!
(He fires multiple light green glowing leaves at
Stunfisk, dealing a good amount of damage to it.)
Janie: Now, use Psycho Cut!
(Gallades forearms glow light blue and both of
them grow and extend to the back. Then, it starts
swings them repeatedly and multiple light blue
crescent blades emerge from them and goes for
Stunfisk.)
Cilan: Dodge it!

(It jumps up and evades the attack.)

Cilan: Now use Scald!
(It rises up on its tailfin and fires a stream of
scalding hot water surrounded by steam from its
mouth at Gallade, doing some damage to him.)
Janie: Good move there, Cilan.
Cilan: Thank you, Janie.
(They continue on with their training. Now, we pan
up to see everyone training hard and we cross fade
to the big stadium, where the second-round battles
are about to get started. A humongous crowd of
spectators sit in the bleachers.)
Don George: Welcome, everyone to the second day
of the Tri-Round Trainers Club Tournament.
Todays going to be a
Jenny: Right you are, Don George. Now, lets get it
underway with our first battle of the day.
(We pan down to the battle field, where Cilans up
against a guy named Chris. He has red hair, hazel
eye and is wearing a blue t-shirt, navy blue jean
shorts and sneakers.)
Referee: This matchup of Cilan and Chris will now
begin!
Cilan: Lets go, Stunfisk and Houndoom!

(He tosses the Pokeballs up and Stunfisk and

Houndoom come out of them.)
Houndoom: (growls.)
(Chris gets two Pokeballs off his belt.)
Chris: Go!
(He throws them into the air and an Ursaring and a
Magmortar emerge from them.)
Ursaring: (roars.)
Chris: Ursaring use Strength! Magmortar, Power-up
Punch!
Ursaring: (roars.)
(Its body becomes surrounded by a red aura and
goes for Stunfisk. Now, Magmortars fist becomes
surrounded in an orange aura and throws it at
Houndoom.)
Cilan: Dodge them and use Thunder Shock and
Rock Smash!
(They both swiftly evade the attacks. Now,
Stunfisks body glows white and its body becomes
surrounded in small yellow sparks. Then, its body
glows yellow and fires multiple beams of electricity
from its body at Magmortar, doing damage to it.
Houndoom jumps into the air, its front paws glow
white and falls onto Ursaring, doing a good amount
of damage.)

Cilan: Now, Houndoom Crunch! Stunfisk, Mud

Bomb!
(Houndooms teeth glow white, then it jumps up
and goes for Magmortar. Stunfisk jumps into the
air, takes in a deep breath and fires a ball of brown
mud from its mouth at Magmortar.)
Chris: Counter with Hammer Arm and Lava Plume!
(Ursarings forearms glow gold and slams them
into Houndoom, dealing damage to it. Then,
Magmortar causes an explosion around itself,
creating a mix of smog and fire to cover the area,
cancels out the Mud Bomb and hits Stunfisk with
flames, dealing damage to it. Houndoom leaps out
of the way of the attack.)
Chris: Magmortar, Focus Blast and Ursaring, Stone
Edge!
(Magmortar puts its hands together up front, forms
an orb of yellow energy and throws it at Stunfisk.
Ursaring slams its hands into the ground and
pointed light blue rock pillars appear and rush
towards Houndoom.)
Cilan: Houndoom, dodge and use Flame Charge!
Stunfisk, Sludge Bomb!
(Houndoom moves out of the way of the attack.
Now, it becomes surrounded in red flames, runs
fast and slams into Ursaring, doing significant

damage to it. Stunfisk fires a ball of brown sludge

from its mouth at Magmortar, exploding on impact
and doing damage to it.)
Cilan: Use Scald and Fire Fang!
(It rises up on its tailfin and fires a stream of
scalding hot water surrounded by steam from its
mouth at Magmortar, dealing a great amount of
damage. Now, Houndooms mouth and fangs
become surrounded in red-orange flames and it
bites down Ursaring, doing damage to it.)
Chris: Close Combat & Flare Blitz!
(Ursaring repeatedly punches and kicks Houndoom
at a fast speed, dealing a considerable amount of
damage. Now, Magmortars body becomes
surrounded by red-orange fire and it shoots at
Stunfisk like a missile, doing a good amount of
damage. Then, red sparks surround its body while
receiving recoil damage.)
Chris: Magmortar, Focus Blast! Ursaring, Strength!
(Magmortar puts its hands together up front, forms
an orb of yellow energy and throws it at
Houndoom, dealing great damage to it. Next,
Ursarings body becomes surrounded by a red aura
and slams into Stunfisk, doing damage to it. Just
then, little sparks of yellow electricity surround its
body.)

Cilan: Stunfisk, Sludge Bomb! Houndoom, Rock

Smash!
(Stunfisk fires a ball of brown sludge from its
mouth at Ursaring, doing damage to it. Houndoom
jumps into the air, its front paws glow white and
falls onto Magmortar, hitting it and dealing
damage.)
Ash: Boy, Cilans really doing great.
Pikachu (agreeing): Pika-chu.
Clemont (complementing): Ill say he is.
Chris: Use Power-up Punch and Stone Edge!
(Magmortars fist becomes surrounded in an
orange aura and throws it at Stunfisk, doing
damage to it. Ursaring slams its hands into the
ground and pointed light blue rock pillars appear
and rush towards Houndoom, hitting it and dealing
a great amount of damage.)
Cilan: Those are some very good moves there.
Chris: Why, thanks. Same to you. Now, do Flare
Blitz and Hammer Arm!
(Magmortars body becomes surrounded by redorange fire and it shoots at Stunfisk like a missile.
Then, Ursarings forearms glow gold and throws
them at Houndoom.)

Cilan: Quick, dodge them and use Mud Bomb and

Crunch!
(Stunfisk and Houndoom leap up and narrowly
avoid the attacks. Now, Stunfisk jumps into the air,
takes in a deep breath and fires a ball of brown
mud from its mouth at Ursaring, landing a direct
hit and dealing a considerable amount damage to
it. Houndooms teeth glow white, then it jumps up
and bites down on Magmortar, getting it at its
weak spot and doing a great amount of damage
and causes it to flinch.)
Cilan: Now, use Thunder Shock and Fire Fang!
(Stunfisks body glows white and its body becomes
surrounded in small yellow sparks. Then, its body
glows yellow and fires multiple beams of electricity
from its body at Magmortar, doing damage to it
and little sparks of electricity surround
Magmortars body. Houndooms mouth and fangs
become surrounded in red-orange flames and it
bites down on Ursaring, doing damage to it.)
Cilan: Nice job, you two.
Chris: Dont give up now. Ursaring, Stone Edge!
(Ursaring slams its hands into the ground and
pointed light blue rock pillars appear and rush
towards Stunfisk, directly hitting it and doing great
damage.)

Cilan: Now, Stunfisk Sludge Bomb, now!

Houndoom, Flame Charge!
(Stunfisk fires a ball of brown sludge from its
mouth at Magmortar. Houndoom becomes
surrounded in red flames and runs fast towards
Ursaring.)
Chris: Dodge them, now!
(They swiftly and narrowly evade the attacks.)
Chris: Magmortar, Focus Blast! Ursaring, Close
Combat!
(Magmortar puts its hands together up front, forms
an orb of yellow energy and throws it at Stunfisk,
doing a good amount of damage. Now, Ursaring
repeatedly punches and kicks Houndoom at a fast
speed, dealing a tremendous amount of damage.
Houndoom faints and collapses to the ground.)
Referee: Houndooms unable to battle! Ursaring
wins!
Chris: All right Ursaring!
Cilan: Come on back, Houndoom. You deserve a
good rest.
