In a rage, he tossed out his {{p|Raichu}}, and told it to use {{m|Iron Tail}}. Ash countered Raichu's attack with an Iron Tail of his own. Both Iron Tails collided. Once Sho realized that Pikachu wasn't wild, he offered up a few Pokémon to [[trade]]; namely a {{p|Mareep}}, {{p|Magnemite}}, and {{p|Magneton}}. Ash turned down all of the other Pokémon. Brock then asked why Sho wanted Pikachu so badly, to which he replied that he wanted a 'full-power [[evolution]] set'.

Ash asked why Sho didn't just evolve his Pichu, and Sho said that then he'd have to catch another Pichu. Ash challenged Sho to a battle – His Raichu against Pikachu. Sho accepted on the terms that if he won, Pikachu was his. However, Ash declined that offer. Still, Sho agreed to battle him anyway.

The first attack launched was by Pikachu – A {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Raichu took the electricity, completely unfazed. Sho mocked Pikachu's power, and gave Pikachu a {{m|Thunder}}. Pikachu also took the attack, then launched {{m|Volt Tackle}}; however, Raichu also knew this move and used it as well. Both of the Volt Tackles collided, creating an explosion. Raichu safely landed on its feet, but Pikachu slammed into a rock and struggled to stand back up. Both Pokémon then used Iron Tail, skidding backwards on the ground.
