Roxanne leads off with {{p|Geodude}}, while Ash sends out {{AP|Treecko}}. Though Treecko has the [[type]] advantage, Brock notes that Treecko does not know any {{t|Grass}} attacks, rendering the point moot. Ash starts with Treecko using {{m|Quick Attack}}, which Geodude replies with a {{m|Mega Punch}}, sending Treecko flying. Treecko recovers from the fall to hit with a midair {{m|Pound}}, which makes its mark, but does not knock it out. Geodude recovers with {{m|Rollout}}, but when Treecko tries to jump and dodge, Geodude follows, and it [[fainting|knocks out]] Treecko with another Mega Punch.

Ash decides to send in Pikachu, surprising the senior students and Roxanne. Undeterred, Pikachu starts by destroying the rock field with {{m|Thunder}}. Meanwhile, Team Rocket begins their plan to tunnel into the Gym and stealing Pikachu by shoveling by hand — as [[James]] notes, this would save them money because they waste so much with their more elaborate schemes. Back at the battle, though Pikachu has destroyed the field, it has yet to damage Geodude. Roxanne notes that it allows Geodude greater maneuverability, and better use of {{m|Rock Throw}}. Pikachu dodges the rocks with {{m|Quick Attack}}, but takes a Mega Punch. When Roxanne tries to use Rollout to finish Pikachu off, though, Geodude gets stuck on the softer battlefield, making an opening for Pikachu to get close with Quick Attack and get the knockout with Thunder. Roxanne admits that Ash has talent, as Geodude had never been knocked out by an {{type|Electric}} attack alone.

Roxanne next sends out {{TP|Roxanne|Nosepass}}, a Pokémon unfamiliar to Ash. Pikachu starts off with Iron Tail, which makes its mark, but when Pikachu tries to use it again, it fails. Nosepass responds with a {{m|Rock Tomb}}, trapping Pikachu. However, Pikachu breaks free with Thunder. Nosepass then uses {{m|Sandstorm}}, making Pikachu unable to find Nosepass, and allowing Nosepass to pin Pikachu to the battlefield. However, Pikachu escapes, and manages to escape another Rock Tomb with a Quick Attack. Pikachu attempts to disorient Nosepass by running circles around Nosepass, which allows another shot with Iron Tail. However, the move fails again. Brock notes that Pikachu is too worn out from running around, and thus does not have the time to store up energy for a successful Iron Tail. Nosepass tries to finish off Pikachu with {{m|Zap Cannon}}, but Pikachu dodges in time. The attack, however, hits James' shovel as it breaks through the Gym floor, shocking Team Rocket and sending them flying out of their tunnel.
