Both sides recall their Pokémon and send out their last fighters, Lucario and {{p|Duraludon}}. While Ash has already used his once-in-a-battle power-up, Raihan still has his Dynamax to use, and he puts it to use by immediately Gigantamaxing Duraludon. Lucario uses {{m|Double Team}} to confuse Duraludon, before using {{m|Aura Sphere}}, which, however, doesn't faze the Gigantamax Pokémon at all. After a second Aura Sphere provides equally lackluster results, Raihan starts his counteroffensive with {{m|Max Steelspike}}, which Lucario is unable to completely avoid. Raihan then has Duraludon unleash its strongest attack; {{m|G-Max Depletion}}, which envelops Lucario in a swirling tornado of energy. To Raihan's surprise, however, Ash is perfectly calm about this situation, as is Lucario, who is standing still inside the vortex and charging up an Aura Sphere.

Ash and Lucario's [[Aura]]s are in perfect sync as Lucario raises the growing Aura Sphere over its head, causing the [[G-Max Move]] to dissipate around it. Goh realizes that this Aura Sphere is similar to what Lucario did after its [[JN108|training]] with {{AP|Greninja}}, except that it's even bigger. Drawing power from the Aura of its teammates, Goh and his partners, and even Greninja all the way back in [[Kalos]], Lucario's Aura Sphere grows to a gigantic size, and Ash dubs it "G-Max Aura Sphere". Duraludon attempts a counterattack with {{m|Max Rockfall}}, but Lucario's attack easily powers through it and strikes the Gigantamax Pokémon head-on, causing it to topple and revert to normal size. Dan judges Duraludon unable to battle, meaning that Ash has won the entrance battle. Ecstatic, Ash runs over to Lucario and congratulates it on a well-fought battle. Raihan approaches Ash and admits that he lost. After taking a {{wp|selfie}} with Ash, Raihan swears to defeat both him and Leon someday, and tells him not to lose until then.

With the season's final entrance battle completed, the eight Trainers advancing to the Masters Eight Tournament have been decided. In addition to Ash, who is now ranked eighth, said Trainers include [[Unova]] {{pkmn|Champion}} {{an|Iris}}; [[Lumiose Conference]] winner [[Alain]]; Kalos Champion [[Diantha]]; the combined Champion of [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]], {{an|Lance}}; [[Hoenn]] Champion {{an|Steven Stone}}; [[Sinnoh]] Champion {{an|Cynthia}}; and Leon, the undefeated Monarch and Galar Champion.
