As Jīkyō informs the crowd that Meltan is a newly discovered {{OBP|Pokémon|species|species}} of Pokémon, Faba flashes back to the previous night, when he secretly spied upon Ash's [[party|team]] to determine which one of its members was the weakest. Settling on Meltan, he resolved to bring it out, wanting to make sure he would get to battle {{an|Professor Kukui|the Masked Royal}}. {{ashcl|Ash's classmates}}, thinking Ash chose Meltan on purpose, are wondering if he has a plan for it. Jīkyō explains that the first round consists of one-on-one {{pkmn|battle|Single Battles}} before Hala officially starts the match. Meltan attacks with {{m|Flash Cannon}}, but Hypno avoids it. Meltan tries again with {{m|Headbutt}}, which is blocked by Hypno's {{m|Reflect}}. Unaware of Meltan noticing Hypno's pendulum, Faba assumes he is already on his way to an easy victory and has Hypno use {{m|Hypnosis}}. Ash tells Meltan not to look, but instead, it leaps forward and happily latches onto Hypno's pendulum. Hypno stops attacking and furiously tries to shake Meltan off, but by the time that happens, Meltan has already melted a part of the pendulum away, much to the shock of both Faba and Ash. Recovering from his momentary shock, Ash has Meltan attack with Flash Cannon, which hits the dismayed Hypno head on, taking it out of the fight and giving Ash the victory. Faba tries to protest, but Hala says Meltan simply made use of its natural abilities, making the move perfectly legal, much to Faba's dismay. Upon exiting the battlefield, Ash encounters [[Ilima]], who congratulates him on his victory before heading out for his own battle.

The second pair of Trainers, Ilima and [[Guzma]], have entered the battlefield. Jīkyō makes sure to notice Ilima's fangirls cheering for Ilima and point out the fact that he has competed in the [[Kalos League]], making him a favorite to win the tournament. The announcer also introduces Guzma, who, while unknown compared to Ilima, managed to clear the preliminary round without taking a single hit. In the crowd, [[Tupp]] is annoyed at Ilima and leads his fellow {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s into a cheering song for Guzma.

Ilima sends out a {{p|Kangaskhan}}, while Guzma sends out his {{p|Scizor}}. Hala tells both Trainers to battle fairly before starting the match. Kangaskhan begins the face-off with a {{m|Power-Up Punch}}, avoiding Scizor's {{m|Bullet Punch}} to deal the first hit. An orange glow surrounds Kangaskhan to signify her {{stat|Attack}} power rising, and {{Rotom}} points out that Power-Up Punch gets stronger with each hit. Kangaskhan uses Power-Up Punch again, but Guzma has Scizor avoid the attack with {{m|Agility}}. Ilima compliments Guzma's skills, but then reveals a [[Key Stone]], [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]] Kangaskhan into Mega Kangaskhan. With the child Kangaskhan now temporarily grown up thanks to Mega Evolution, the mother and child attack Scizor {{a|Parental Bond|together}} with Power-Up Punch, before following up with {{m|Rock Slide}}. Although Scizor dodges the mother's rocks with Agility and smacks the child's rocks aside, it is then struck by a simultaneous {{m|Low Kick}} from both of them.
