Cynthia calls out her Garchomp, while Paul chooses {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}; a choice that surprises Cynthia, as well as the crowd, due to its disadvantage as a {{type|Fire}}. Paul commands Chimchar to use {{m|Fire Spin}} and then {{m|Dig}}. Once hit with Fire Spin, Garchomp also uses Dig under Cynthia's command. Garchomp strikes her opponent underground, knocking Chimchar out. As Paul [[recall]]s it, he scolds it for its loss, which doesn't sit too well with either Cynthia or Ash.

Paul then uses {{p|Weavile}}, a much better type matchup. He orders a {{m|Blizzard}} attack, and despite being a super-effective hit, it does not faze Garchomp at all. Garchomp then uses {{m|Dragon Rush}}, which causes Weavile to freeze instead of trying to dodge. Paul tells Weavile to use {{m|Ice Beam}}. However, Garchomp dodges the attack twice and slams itself into Weavile, knocking it out cold. Paul then sends out {{TP|Paul|Murkrow}}. Immediately, he tells Murkrow to use {{m|Haze}}, which Garchomp dodges. Murkrow flies behind Garchomp and Paul tells it to use {{m|Sky Attack}}. Cynthia has Garchomp counter with Giga Impact. After returning his fallen Murkrow, Paul smriks to himself, leaving everyone confused as he has lost half of his team in short order.

Paul calls out his {{TP|Paul|Torterra}} and starts things off with a {{m|Giga Drain}}. Since Giga Impact left Garchomp unable to move, Giga Drain hits its mark and manages to weaken Garchomp. Torterra follows up with {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, though Garchomp blocks the attack with her fins, much to Paul's astonishment. Cynthia then tells Garchomp to use {{m|Brick Break}}. Garchomp pushes the Frenzy Plant vines away and jumps into the air, hitting Torterra with Brick Break on its head, taking it down and out. Paul then gives up the battle, to which the crowd responds by poking fun at him. Ash, with new found respect, rebukes the crowd and compliments Paul on a great battle. Paul says goodbye to Cynthia and walks away. Ash realizes that isn't where the Pokémon Center is, and Cynthia demands that Paul go to the Center to heal his Pokémon.
