The battle of Paul and Barry is about to begin. A rock field will be the battlefield for their battle. Barry and Paul appears on both side of the battlefield. Barry chooses {{p|Skarmory}} as his first Pokémon and Paul chooses {{TP|Paul|Magmortar}}. Dawn checks the data of Skarmory on her Pokédex. Barry starts the battle with {{m|Spikes}}. Paul tells Magmortar to use {{m|Flamethrower}}, the strong attack takes out Skarmory immediately. Skarmory is declared out of battle. Barry thanks his Skarmory and returns it to its [[Poké Ball]]. He sends out {{TP|Barry|Empoleon}}. Empoleon uses {{m|Hydro Cannon}} on Magmortar, injuring it. Despite knowing that his Pokémon will be injured under the effects of Spikes, Paul calls back Magmortar and sends out {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}}. The Spikes from before inflicts a damage on Ursaring. Barry returns Empoleon. He chooses {{p|Hitmonlee}}. Paul tells Ursaring to use {{m|Bulk Up}}. Hitmonlee uses {{m|Mega Kick}}. Ursaring uses {{m|Hammer Arm}} but Hitmonlee dodges it by jumping on a rock. Ursaring uses {{m|Slash}} and Barry tells Hitmonlee to dodge it all. Then, Hitmonlee uses {{m|Close Combat}}. Ursaring uses Hammer Arm again and hits Hitmonlee. As Hitmonlee is about to crash onto a rock, Barry tells it to do its best. It jumps up high and uses {{m|High Jump Kick}}. It crashes to the ground and hits Ursaring with its other leg. Paul tells it to use {{m|Focus Blast}}. Although Hitmonlee dodges it by jumping behind a rock, the strong impact hits Hitmonlee. Ursaring uses Hammer Arm again, Hitmonlee counters it by using {{m|Blaze Kick}}, burning Ursaring. Ursaring activates {{a|Guts}} and uses Hammer Arm to counter Hitmonlee's Blaze Kick. The strong impact causes a smoke that clears soon after. Both Pokémon are seen standing up but Hitmonlee falls later. Hitmonlee is defeated. Outside the stadium, Team Rocket saw the battle outside the stadium on the TV screen. A {{p|Murkrow}} jokingly flies past them. James reminds them again of their store. Jessie says that nobody wants to buy, but James thought of a great idea. He runs off. | The battle of Paul and Barry is about to begin. A rock field will be the battlefield for their battle.
