Gold rounds off his explanation by bragging that Oak practically had to beg him to take the mission, but Whitney and the others note that he's merely a substitute. [[Will]] and [[Karen]] note that Gold should be meeting with Lance soon, but [[Koga]] catches wind of something huge approaching. A massive {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} from the sea which embarks on a rampage, destroying everything in sight. [[Radio Director|Hirō]] quickly declares a state of emergency and has everyone evacuate the stadium, while Bruno and Koga send out {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Ekans}} to fight, but both Pokémon are defeated by a {{m|Hyper Beam}} attack. The Dragonite charges at announcer's podium, destroying it and leaving Hirō hanging onto the raging Dragonite for dear life. Spontaneously, Gold changes back to his normal clothes and sends out [[Aibo]], [[Polibo]], and [[Exbo]]. | Gold rounds off his explanation by bragging that Oak practically had to beg him to take the mission, but Whitney and the others note that he's merely a substitute.

Calling to Koga and Bruno, Gold reveals that he's asked Aibo to get Dragonite to attack him, and asks the men to signal him when Dragonite's Hyper Beam is about to fire.

At the signal, Gold launches [[Togebo]]'s {{i|Poké Ball}} with his billiard cue, which meets the devastating attack. Gold is sent flying and the Poké Ball is left smoking after being struck at close range. The [[Elite Four]] note that Gold must have aimed for releasing Togebo before Hyper Beam hit, but the tactic was too risky and clearly failed. Pushing himself up, Gold states that his tactics never fail, and sure enough Togebo attacks Dragonite from behind, slamming a {{m|Double-Edge}} at the back of Dragonite's head and defeating it. | ||
Everyone else is surprised that Togebo actually succeeded, and Whitney wonders if Togebo had escaped the Hyper Beam earlier. Karen disagrees, realizing that Togebo must have taken the Hyper Beam head-on, pushing through the attack with sheer determination. Koga and Bruno note that both Pokémon and Trainer are incredibly reckless, to which Gold insists that he thinks everything through, noting a torn piece of cloth in Dragonite's claws. Based on research, Gold knew that Lance had the ability to redirect his Pokémon's Hyper Beam attacks, as he demonstrated [[PS080|years ago]], but this Dragonite's Hyper Beams were all fired straight, suggesting that Lance isn't around to command it. Whitney notes that Dragonite is badly wounded, and Bruno guesses that Lance must have lost a battle somewhere leaving the anguished Dragonite to escape and go on its rampage. | Everyone else is surprised that Togebo actually succeeded, and Whitney wonders if Togebo had escaped the Hyper Beam earlier.

Annoyed that he wasted a trip, Gold decides go home. Nudging Hirō, he asks for a lift back halfway and thanks the Elite Four for a good time. Bruno thanks Gold, and hands him Dragonite's Poké Ball, having managed to return it since the Pokémon recognized him. Gold offloads a bunch of specialty snacks on Bruno, and as the Elite Four wave goodbye to Gold and Whitney, Bruno is amazed at how tasty the [[Rage Candy Bar]] is. | Annoyed that he wasted a trip, Gold decides go home.

Riding alongside Gold, Whitney is perturbed that Gold isn't the least bit concerned about Lance or Team Rocket. Gold casually dismisses her, saying that he feels that those issues should be left to the police, but he's mostly interested in seeing Arceus, as everyone seems to be discussing it. On a whim, he asks Hirō to head for [[Ecruteak City]] so he can see the [[Kimono Girl]]s. A bemused Whitney remarks to herself that Gold is quite the big moron as Goldenrod Radio Tower van heads north. | Riding alongside Gold, Whitney is perturbed that Gold isn't the least bit concerned about Lance or Team Rocket.
