Later, as the group relax Barry catches up with Ash and asks how {{AP|Gible}}'s training to master {{m|Draco Meteor}} is coming along. Ash is forced to confess that it isn't going very well at the moment, which disappoints Barry. Barry proceeds to tell Ash that he'll never earn the eight Badges he needs for the [[Sinnoh League]] if his Pokémon can't master their moves. Ash tells Barry he's still headed for [[Sunyshore Gym]], which makes Barry and Empoleon laugh. After being asked what's so amusing, Barry tells everyone that he's already been to Sunyshore Gym... and earned the [[Badge]]! To prove it, Barry shows off his collection of Badges and it turns out that he's gathered all eight he requires for the Sinnoh League. Dawn tells Ash that now he has to catch up to both Barry and [[Paul]], and Barry is excited to hear that Paul has also collected the eight Badges he needs and tells Ash that he needs to get a move on and reach Sunyshore Gym. Barry then shows off the {{badge|Beacon}} he got from Sunyshore Gym and tells Ash that Sunyshore Gym was the best of all. This naturally makes Ash all the more excited for the battle to earn his eighth Badge. | Later, as the group relax Barry catches up with Ash and asks how {{AP|Gible}}'s training to master {{m|Draco Meteor}} is coming along.

Meanwhile, at {{TRT}}'s temporary base, [[James]] announces that after analyzing their previous failed plans, he is going to take charge of the next attempt to nab {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}. [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} are incredulous, but still listen as James explains that the main problem with their previous schemes is that they have always been stealing the Pokémon then trying to flee.

[[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} are incredulous, but still listen as James explains that the main problem with their previous schemes is that they have always been stealing the Pokémon then trying to flee. This, in turn, allows the [[twerp]]s to counterattack and send them blasting off. However, if they were to instead trap the twerps, ''then'' grab the Pokémon and flee they could then make a clean getaway. Jessie and Meowth both like the idea and decide to get started at once. | ||
Back in town, the group are all feeling pretty hungry so decide to stop at the local [[Pokémon Center]]. [[Nurse Joy]] greets the four and Brock naturally goes to greet Nurse Joy in his own unique (and creepy) style. Luckily both Brock and Nurse Joy are put out of their misery by {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}'s {{m|Poison Jab}}. Just then Dawn spots someone familiar across the room... Paul! She points him out to Ash, who hasn't seen his rival since his [[DP132|massive loss]] against him in their [[Full Battle]]. While Ash is surprised, Barry is very excited to meet the Trainer he admires so much. Going straight over to him as Paul prepares to leave, Barry introduces himself, telling Paul he has also earned eight Badges and challenges him to a battle. Paul is clearly unimpressed with Barry and declines the offer, which surprises Barry who, after threatening to fine him, tells Paul that he has a reputation as a really strong Trainer with really strong Pokémon and he presses the point that he'd love to battle him. Paul responds by telling Barry that he's currently declining all challenges at the moment. Now he's earned his eight Badges, Paul is now in the middle of serious training for the Sinnoh League and he won't risk his Pokémon's condition by having a 'pointless' battle. Barry insists that a battle against him won't be pointless, but Paul tells Barry that if he's ''that'' desperate for a battle he should battle Ash. Barry doesn't want to battle Ash, as he doesn't believe that Ash is on their level since he only has seven Badges. | Back in town, the group are all feeling pretty hungry so decide to stop at the local [[Pokémon Center]].
