Tierno calls out for a {{m|Hydro Pump}}, which Aegislash is unable to dodge. Sawyer correctly deduces that the rain has powered up both Ludicolo's speed, thanks to its {{a|Swift Swim}} Ability, as well as its {{type|Water}} attacks.

Ash worries that Sceptile is still the more powerful Pokémon, but when Tierno orders a {{m|Thunder}} attack, Clemont realizes that Blastoise's parting Rain Dance will ensure that Raichu's Thunder attack won't miss. Before Raichu can release her Thunder, however, Sawyer reveals his secret weapon and uses his [[Key Stone]] to Mega Evolve Sceptile. Refusing to be daunted, Tierno orders Raichu to complete her attack, but to Tierno's great surprise, Mega Sceptile comes through it completely unscathed. Sawyer reveals that, as a result of Mega Evolving, Mega Sceptile's Ability is now {{a|Lightning Rod}}, rendering Thunder useless. Mega Sceptile charges towards Raichu with {{m|Dragon Claw}}, and Raichu tries to counter with {{m|Focus Blast}}, but Mega Sceptile slashes through the attack and lands the blow on Raichu, knocking her unconscious and winning the battle for Sawyer, making him the fourth and final semifinalist. | ||
With the semifinalists decided, the announcer reveals the semifinal match-ups, which will pit Alain against Remo and Ash against Sawyer. As the sun sets, Ash exits the arena with his friends, who remind him that the semifinal battle will require a full team of six Pokémon, when he currently only has five. At this reminder, Ash panics about the time and runs off to a street outside where he comments that he's expecting someone. The others are confused, but a honking truck soon draws their attention. Turning towards the sound, they spot {{AP|Goodra}}, previously left at its home swamp, riding in the bed of a truck being driven by [[Keanan]]. In a flashback, it is revealed that during his latest visit to the wetlands, Ash had requested Goodra's assistance for the league's semifinals, and it agreed. With his team now complete, Ash summons them all before him to declare his confidence in them and vow to beat Sawyer with their help, and the whole team cheers in agreement. | With the semifinalists decided, the announcer reveals the semifinal match-ups, which will pit Alain against Remo and Ash against Sawyer.
