Now down to one Pokémon against three (Scizor, Blastoise, and an unrevealed Pokémon), Ash sends out {{AP|Charizard}}. Gary notes he figured that Ash would use his Charizard last. Scizor lunges toward Charizard with {{m|Steel Wing}}. Charizard attacks with {{m|Flamethrower}}, but Scizor jumps to avoid the attack, however Ash refuses to let it get away this time. Charizard then meets Scizor airborne much to Scizor and Gary's shock before Scizor is knocked out by a super-effective Flamethrower to the face. Gary, undaunted, sends out {{p|Golem}}. Brock and Misty note that Charizard will have a hard time against Golem (due to the double weakness to {{t|Rock}} types). Golem leads off with {{m|Magnitude}}, which manages to stun Charizard. Charizard attempts to {{m|Seismic Toss}} Golem, but it is too heavy (Professor Oak pointing out that Golem is second only to Snorlax in terms of mass). Golem lands back on its feet and attacks with {{m|Rollout}}, but Ash orders Charizard to use {{m|Dragon Rage}} which hits Golem and knocks it out of the match. | Now down to one Pokémon against three (Scizor, Blastoise, and an unrevealed Pokémon), Ash sends out {{AP|Charizard}}.

Now Ash has pulled even with Gary - the match is down to Blastoise and Charizard | Now Ash has pulled even with Gary - the match is down to Blastoise and Charizard. | ||
Charizard's opening Flamethrower is deflected by Rapid Spin, but isn't as lucky itself as it takes a Hydro Pump to the face. Taking to the skies, its airborne attack is repelled by a Skull Bash. As [[Macy]], [[Vincent|Jackson]], and {{jo|Harrison}} look on from the stands for Ash's next move, Ash decides to have Charizard make another aerial approach, evading Hydro Pumps along the way. However, Charizard cannot seem to find a desperately needed opening. Brock notes that Fire attacks aren't very effective against Water-types, but sometimes they work and that Charizard will need a close-range attack to have a good shot of knocking out Blastoise against the type advantage. | Charizard's opening Flamethrower is deflected by Rapid Spin, but isn't as lucky itself as it takes a Hydro Pump to the face.

Although he knows that Ash's specialty is thinking outside-the-box, Gary is still nevertheless puzzled by Ash's tactic | Ash desperately looks for someway to take advantage, and he suddenly notices that - although Charizard's attacks have missed Blastoise - the fire that has hit the rocks have been left red hot and somewhat melted. Ash commands Charizard to burn the field instead of attacking Blastoise. Although he knows that Ash's specialty is thinking outside-the-box, Gary is still nevertheless puzzled by Ash's tactic. Blastoise is immobilized by the red-hot field, something that not even a type advantage could cover. Resorting to cool the field using Hydro Pump, Blastoise only succeeds in covering the field in steam. When the steam clears, Blastoise and Charizard have locked up in close-range combat - too close for Blastoise to aim its Hydro Pumps. Though Blastoise manages to duck out of a Dragon Rage, it allows Charizard to attempt a Seismic Toss. Blastoise tries to escape by biting Charizard's arm, but to no avail. The attack continues and once Charizard and Blastoise land on the ground, everyone begins to wonder who won. When the smoke clears, Blastoise is able to get up, as both Pokémon have a staring match. Blastoise soon however succumbs to the damage it took and faints. Ash, realizing that he just beat Gary, stands in awe, then jumps for joy and thanks Charizard for a spectacular battle. | ||
Meanwhile, {{TRT}} has ended yet another day with a big profit. However, Jessie is preventing {{TR|Delibird}} from making off with its hard-earned gains. However, Meowth also notes that with the profits they have nearly wiped out all their outstanding Team Rocket debts. Jessie is first to plan on franchising their souvenir stand, which James and Meowth support. | Meanwhile, {{TRT}} has ended yet another day with a big profit.
