→Pokémon: changing the wording here, "soon after" implies it was knocked out with ease, but Golisopod was far more durable.

Right after, in [[SM136]], Guzma went up against Ash, using his Scizor to battle his {{AP|Torracat}}. He quickly swapped Golisopod for Scizor through the latter using {{m|U-turn}}, as he had planned from the start. However, Golisopod activated Emergency Exit during the match and brought Scizor back out, resulting in it being quickly defeated by {{m|Fire Blast}}. Angered by Golisopod's cowardice, Guzma sent it out again and berated it on having made Scizor lose. | |||
The battle continued in [[SM137]], during which Guzma finally started to realize his own cowardice through defeating only weak opponents and running away from battles against strong ones. Despite the strength of Ash's Pikachu, Golisopod still wanted to continue battling, but the battle ultimately led to Guzma's loss. The audience applauded for the great battle and Kukui hoped to see Guzma participating next year as well, but Guzma considered his reputation ruined and was ready to disband Team Skull. However, Plumeria and the Team Skull Grunts were so fired up by the battle that they wanted stay by his side and learn to battle as well as he did. Cheered up by the support of his team, he smiled and bounded out of the stadium with them. | |||

In [[SM136]], Golisopod was sent out against [[Ash's Torracat]] in the semifinals. Despite having a type advantage, the two were evenly matched, with Golisopod taking several hard hits. Golisopod proved to be a cowardly Pokémon, as it used Emergency Exit once faced with a {{m|Fire Blast}}, forcing its teammate Scizor to come out and take the attack despite having a double type-disadvantage to it. This led to Scizor being knocked out, infuriating Guzma, who had a different strategy in mind that was now ruined. Following this, Golisopod was sent back out.
