Emerald decides to take a quick break to use the bathroom, but instead of going inside a restroom, he chooses to simply urinate off the side of the Battle Factory. Todd follows Emerald and drags him to the bathroom in disgust. Todd questions Emerald's choice to switch out the strong Slaking for Linoone. Emerald disagrees with this opinion, and reveals that he choice to switch out Slaking because of an "order and role" strategy. | Emerald decides to take a quick break to use the bathroom, but instead of going inside a restroom, he chooses to simply urinate off the side of the Battle Factory.

Emerald explains that the first Pokémon in a Trainer's party should be the "lead" which has to be fast enough to deal damage to the opponent repeatedly. Secondly, Pokémon two is the "main force", which has to be able to use multiple skills to deal with opponents that have special abilities. Lastly, the third Pokémon is the "rear guard", which needs to have high defense to serve as backup. Emerald states that since he choose the order of his team, he needed to replace Slaking as it didn't fit any of his positions. Having finished his business, Emerald sends out his team to continue his Battle Frontier challenge. | Emerald explains that the first Pokémon in a Trainer's party should be the "lead" which has to be fast enough to deal damage to the opponent repeatedly.

On set five, Emerald continues beating opponent after opponent with the Linoone he used. By the end of battle number 34, Todd realizes that Emerald was right about Linoone. Noland points out that since Linoone is a rental Pokémon and isn't bonded with Emerald, its {{m|Frustration}} move is very powerful. In addition to this, the Linoone holds a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Choice Band}}, an item that powers up a certain move but at the cost of forcing the Pokémon to only use that move. Noland praises Emerald and states that the boy possesses more knowledge than he initially assumed. | On set five, Emerald continues beating opponent after opponent with the Linoone he used.
