The gym battle begins, set for a three-on-three battle. Ash praises {{AP|Pikachu}} for standing down on this one. Gardenia summons {{p|Cherubi}} as Ash sends out {{AP|Turtwig}}. Ash goes first with {{m|Tackle}}, but Cherubi dodges easily. Turtwig follows up with {{m|Razor Leaf}}, but Cherubi dodges effortlessly and gets behind Turtwig. {{an|Brock}} notices the {{DL|Weather conditions|Intense sunlight}} enabling Cherubi’s [[ability]] {{a|Chlorophyll}} to double Cherubi’s {{stat|speed}}. Cherubi fires an instant {{m|SolarBeam}} [[Move|attack]] but Turtwig jumps up to dodge. Thinking it will take time to fire another, Ash commands Turtwig to use Razor Leaf, but Cherubi fires another quick SolarBeam, negating the Razor Leaf and hitting Turtwig. Cherubi uses {{m|Magical Leaf}}, but Ash quickly recalls Turtwig, Gardenia praising his decision to substitute. Underneath, Team Rocket continues digging as they emerge into a lit [[The Underground|underground]] tunnel. A [[Underground Man|miner]] approaches and Team Rocket recites their {{TP|Team Rocket|motto}}. The miner reveals that there are treasures underneath, [[shard]]s and [[sphere]]s among them. He recruits Team Rocket to help find the treasure and split the profit.

Meanwhile, Ash sends out {{AP|Staravia}}. Cherubi launches SolarBeam, but Staravia dodges and uses {{m|Wing Attack}}, but Cherubi dodges and fires SolarBeam. The quick charge fails as clouds now obscure the sun. Cherubi switches to Magical Leaf as Staravia bolts straight up, eventually getting out of range. Staravia turns around and descends slowly with Wing Attack, stunning everyone. Staravia lines up with the sunlight, which returns intensely and blinds Cherubi, rendering it vulnerable to the attack. Staravia follows up with {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Aerial Ace}} to [[Unable to battle|knock out]] Cherubi.

Gardenia calls Cherubi back, praising Ash's tactics before sending out her {{TP|Gardenia|Turtwig}}. Ash notices Staravia's slight anger at [[DP031|losing to Turtwig before]], wanting redemption. Staravia uses Wing Attack as Turtwig dodges quickly. Ash orders multiple Wing Attacks as Turtwig dodges them all. The tactic grows old and irritates Gardenia, but she realizes too late that Turtwig fell into a trap, backpedaling until it got wedged into a tree. Staravia hits the immobilized Pokémon with Aerial Ace, sending it flying back but not knocking it out. Staravia quickly follows with Wing Attack, but Turtwig’s {{m|Leech Seed}} connects and saps Staravia’s {{stat|Hit Points|energy}}, exposing it to Turtwig’s Tackle and knocking it out. Ash recalls Staravia, praising the Pokémon as he brings his Turtwig back out for a rematch.

Roserade grabs Aipom with vines from its bouquets and throws it down before using {{m|Flash}} to blind the Pokémon. Aipom uses Focus Punch, but being blind, it simply thrashes about while Roserade steps aside, hitting with Magical Leaf. Aipom gets back up, still blind and thrashing about. Ash tells Aipom to calm down and use its ears instead. Roserade uses another fiery Weather Ball, but Aipom's hearing allows it to use Focus Punch to send the attack right back at Roserade. Roserade uses Magical Leaf, but Aipom regains its sight and uses {{m|Swift}} to block the attack before creating a Swift ring around Roserade. Aipom uses Focus Punch to catalyze the attack to converge, hammering Roserade relentlessly as a Contest combination. Aipom quickly follows up with Focus Punch, tossing Roserade into a tree, breaking it down as it eventually crashes into a wall, knocking it out and giving Ash the win. Ash hugs Aipom at triumphing on the opponent's home field. At sunset, Gardenia gives Ash the {{badge|Forest}}.  Ash holds the [[badge]] high as he celebrates with {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|his Pokémon}}.
