{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrive at the [[Castelia City]] [[Castelia Gym|Gym]] so he can battle [[Burgh]], the Castelia City [[Gym Leader]]. When they get inside, they are amazed at how it is similar to a {{wp|greenhouse}}. They find Burgh feeding a {{p|Sewaddle}} as he mentions how the trees were transferred from [[Pinwheel Forest]] to provide a natural environment for his {{t|Bug}} types. Burgh opens up the battlefield, coming up from the under ground. The referee announces that the battle will be three-on-three. | {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrive at the [[Castelia City]] [[Castelia Gym|Gym]] so he can battle [[Burgh]], the Castelia City [[Gym Leader]].

Burgh summons {{p|Dwebble}} as his first, while Ash goes with {{AP|Tepig}}. {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} agree that Tepig is a solid choice. | Burgh summons {{p|Dwebble}} as his first, while Ash goes with {{AP|Tepig}}. {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} agree that Tepig is a solid choice. Iris realizes that Burgh's Dwebble looks different from [[Cilan's Dwebble]]. Tepig attacks first with {{m|Tackle}}, but Dwebble dodges it. Tepig tries again, but Dwebble uses {{m|Dig}} to avoid it and strike Tepig. When Dwebble follows up with a fast {{m|X-Scissor}}, Burgh reveals that Dwebble's rock shell is actually lighter than average, giving Dwebble more {{stat|speed}}. Dwebble uses {{m|Protect}} to nullify Tepig's {{m|Ember}} before launching X-Scissor, which Tepig responds with Tackle. Ash decides to order a {{m|Flame Charge}} all-in, but another Protect stops it. With Tepig close, Dwebble uses {{m|Rock Wrecker}} to [[Fainting#In the anime|take out]] Tepig, part of Burgh's strategy. | ||
Wanting to initiate a "Bug battle", Ash presumptuously sends out Sewaddle. Sewaddle fires {{m|Razor Leaf}}, but Protect once against stalls it. Dwebble charges with X-Scissor, but Sewaddle fires {{m|String Shot}} at the ceiling to dodge. Protect stops Sewaddle's {{m|Bug Bite}} counterattack before firing Rock Wrecker. Sewaddle once again uses String Shot to dodge and retaliate with Razor Leaf, but Protect once again stops it. When Dwebble fires another Rock Wrecker, Sewaddle uses String Shot to wrap and stop it. Sewaddle's Tackle hits before Dwebble can use X-Scissor, which separates Dwebble from its shell. Sewaddle keeps Dwebble from its shell with rapid Razor Leaf/Tackle pressure, knocking it out. | Wanting to initiate a "Bug battle", Ash presumptuously sends out Sewaddle.
