Ash then sends out {{AP|Staraptor}} to battle Drapion next. Drapion uses Pin Missile, which Staraptor effectively dodges with its high speed. It then comes down with an {{m|Aerial Ace}}, which Drapion manages to dodge at the last second, and captures Staraptor like it did with Buizel. Drapion uses {{m|Cross Poison}} on the trapped Staraptor, and then Drapion throws Staraptor onto the ground, poisoning it with the remnants of Toxic Spikes, thus knocking out Staraptor. | Ash then sends out {{AP|Staraptor}} to battle Drapion next.

Ash then sends out {{AP|Torterra}} next, and Torterra feels the effect of the Toxic Spikes instantaneously. Drapion uses Cross Poison on Torterra, and Torterra sends Drapion away with {{m|Energy Ball}}. Ash quickly attacks again with {{m|Leaf Storm}}, hitting Drapion again. Paul instructs Drapion to use Pin Missile to counter the Leaf Storm, which end up neutralizing each other. Torterra comes out of the smoke with a {{m|Rock Climb}}, but is grabbed by Drapion when he is just about to attack and uses {{m|Poison Fang}} on Torterra. Torterra uses {{m|Synthesis}} to gain back some energy and Drapion comes to attack with Pin Missile, again, hitting Torterra and knocking it out, leaving Ash with three Pokémon. Paul asks Ash if he's planning to send out {{AP|Gliscor}} next, to which Ash responds that Paul is correct. Paul recalls Drapion as he tells Ash that he already knows all the Pokémon that Ash will be using because he had used his [[Paul#Aggron|Aggron]], and [[Paul#Gastrodon|Gastrodon]] as guinea pigs. Paul then proclaims that ever since he kept Drapion on the field, he had been able to predict every one of Ash's moves. | Ash then sends out {{AP|Torterra}} next, and Torterra feels the effect of the Toxic Spikes instantaneously.

Ash states there is nobody like Paul and he states that is why he is not losing to him that easily. | ||
Ash sends out Gliscor and Paul sends out his fourth Pokémon, {{DL|Paul|Ninjask}}, which uses {{m|Agility}} right from the start. Ash tells Gliscor to use its newest attack, {{m|Stone Edge}}. However it is easily dodged by Ninjask, still using Agility. Ninjask comes in with a quick {{m|Fury Cutter}}, hitting Gliscor countless times. While falling, Gliscor regains lift and tries to use {{m|Fire Fang}} on Ninjask, but is unsuccessful and Gliscor falls into the field and gains the effect from the Toxic Spikes Drapion had left. Ash recalls Gliscor and sends out {{AP|Infernape}}, who also gets poisoned from the Toxic Spikes. Ash realizes that he's at a major disadvantage while Toxic Spikes are active and tells Infernape to use {{m|Dig}} and leave Paul and Ninjask wondering where it is.

Ash tells Gliscor to use its newest attack, {{m|Stone Edge}}. However it is easily dodged by Ninjask, still using Agility (Its ability {{a|Speed Boost}} was also helping it move faster too as Brock noticed). Ninjask comes in with a quick {{m|Fury Cutter}}, hitting Gliscor countless times.

Ash realizes that he's at a major disadvantage while Toxic Spikes are active and tells Infernape to use {{m|Dig}} and leave Paul and Ninjask wondering where it is. Infernape uses {{m|Flare Blitz}} underground, illuminating the entire field in a bright red, alleviating the Toxic Spikes, and also damaging Ninjask. Paul tells Ninjask to use {{m|Giga Drain}} and begins to sap energy from Infernape. At this point everyone notices that Ninjask is not moving as fast as it originally was shown to be. Brock guesses that the damage from Flare Blitz must have canceled Speed Boost out for the time being. As Ninjask drains away its energy, Infernape scrutinizes Ninjask's movements carefully and lands a successful {{m|Mach Punch}}, knocking out Ninjask. Ash and Paul are now tied with three Pokémon each that are able to battle and Ash, knowing Infernape is starting to get tired, recalls it for some rest. | ||
Paul sends out his next Pokémon, {{DL|Paul|Froslass}}. Knowing he's going up against in {{type2|Ice}} Pokémon, Ash decides to send in {{AP|Pikachu}}. Paul starts things off by having Froslass use {{m|Hail}}, and a thick cold mist soon surrounds the entire battlefield. Froslass begins fading in and out of view, preventing Pikachu from following her movements. Brock explains that Froslass's ability, {{a|Snow Cloak}} has come into effect. Pikachu tries to get an idea on where Froslass is but to no avail, and things become more urgent when Pikachu starts to take damage from the Hail. Ash commands a {{m|Thunderbolt}} and Pikachu tries to hit Froslass, however, the Hail severely rescricts the attack and it doesn't even get close to its target. Paul commands Froslass to use {{m|Ice Shard}}, which scores a direct hit against Pikachu. As Thunderbolt isn't working, Ash tells Pikachu to use {{m|Volt Tackle}}, however he passes right through Froslass without even hitting her. Froslass uses Ice Shard and Ash tells Pikachu to watch out and to use {{m|Iron Tail}}, destroying the Ice Shard and elevating Pikachu into the air. He uses Iron Tail again and finally lands an attack on Froslass, sending her flying into the ground suffering major damage from the super-effective hit. Hail finally subsides, leaving Froslass with nowhere to hide. Paul orders an {{m|Ice Beam}} which hits Pikachu encasing him in ice. Paul tells Froslass to use Ice Shard again, but Pikachu is one step ahead and uses Volt Tackle to escape the ice and hit Froslass before she can even release the Ice Shard. Pikachu suffers [[recoil]] from the attack, but it turns out to be worth it as Froslass is left unable to battle. Ash knows this battle took a lot out of Pikachu and recalls him back to the sidelines. | Paul sends out his next Pokémon, {{DL|Paul|Froslass}}.

Paul sends Drapion back out and Ash sends Gliscor back out and encourages it, telling it to show Paul what it learned from [[McCann]]. Drapion uses Pin Missile to start things off and Gliscor quickly dodges the attack. Gliscor uses Stone Edge and Drapion uses Cross Poison to neutralize the Stone Edge. Gliscor is shielded by the remnants of the neutralization of Stone Edge, he then uses {{m|Giga Impact}} in the clouds and comes down to hit Drapion before he could use Poison Fang.

Drapion turns around only to be shocked that Gliscor is not there despite that Gliscor hit it with Giga Impact. Paul and Drapion then find that Gliscor is rolling around in the sky, safe from Drapion while he recharges from the Giga Impact. [[Reggie]], who was watching the battle on TV, remarks that Paul's predictions have been crushed and he can no longer predict Ash's strategies. Drapion uses Pin Missile and Gliscor quickly dodges the attack like how Staraptor did earlier, and uses {{m|X-Scissor}} while falling towards Drapion. With the battle entering its final stages, both Ash and Paul are ready to battle to their fullest... however it remains to be seen who will emerge victorious! | ||
