Cynthia calls out her Garchomp, while Paul chooses {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}; a choice that surprises Cynthia, as well as the crowd, due to his 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 the {{pkmn|category|Chimp Pokémon}}, he scolds him for his loss, which doesn't sit too well with either Cynthia or Ash.

Paul uses {{p|Weavile}}, a much better type matchup. He orders a {{m|Blizzard}} attack, and despite being a doubly super-effective hit, it does not faze Garchomp at all. Garchomp 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 sends out {{TP|Paul|Murkrow}} and he immediately 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 smirks to himself, leaving everyone confused as he has lost half of his team in short order.

After returning his fallen Murkrow, Paul smirks to himself, leaving everyone confused as he has lost half of his team in short order without as much as leaving a scratch on Garchomp.


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 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 gives up the battle, to which the crowd responds by poking fun at him. Ash, with newfound 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.

Unfortunately, when they get there, [[Nurse Joy]] claims that she needs to perform surgery on an injured Pokémon. Cynthia decides to heal Paul's Pokémon by herself, to which {{an|Brock}} says that he'd love to help out. {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} comes out of his {{i|Poké Ball}} to use {{m|Poison Jab}}, but stops once he sees Cynthia smiling at him, and blushes instead. Cynthia treats Paul's Torterra with a [[Super Potion]]. She moves on to Chimchar, giving it a pill and encouraging it to rest up. Cynthia tells Paul that his Pokémon are all healed and well trained, especially his Torterra. Paul reveals that Torterra was his [[first partner Pokémon]]. He also says that he traveled around [[Hoenn]], [[Johto]], and [[Kanto]], where he caught his Murkrow and Weavile, failing to win any of their [[Pokémon League Conference]]s, before coming back to [[Sinnoh]], where he caught his Chimchar. When Cynthia compliments Chimchar, Paul complains that Chimchar didn't do well against Garchomp. Ash argues that he didn't care how many Pokémon got hurt, though Paul defends his training methods. Ash becomes angrier, saying that he has to support his Pokémon. Upon Paul saying that he wants to become stronger, Cynthia takes everyone back to the stone tablet in Amity Square and reads it to them. She claims that before reading this tablet, she used to train endlessly. Then she discovered that all Pokémon have different [[Nature|personalities]] and she wanted to get to know all of them.
