AG129: Difference between revisions

However, not everyone is battling, as Team Rocket are enjoying green tea and rice with their new boss. Happy at their work, he tells them that he'll be passing down his business to them, and they, including {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, celebrate.

Now outside of the center, Ash calls out to Morrison , who does not respond. Ash wonders where he could have gone and continues looking. Elsewhere, Morrison is training Metang, telling it they have to train to be able to overcome Ash's Pokémon. He orders Metang to use Take Down on a nearby tree, but quickly tells it to stop when he imagines Ash's face in it. Metang turns around, confused at Morrison 's actions. However, Morrison isn't sure himself and falls to the ground, puzzled and depressed. Ash then appears, greeting Morrison happily. However, Morrison is still shocked and depressed at the battle match-up, and runs off with Metang not even turning around to face him. Just as Morrison leaves, Brock, May and Max appear. Ash is confused as to why Morrison is acting like that, and Brock explains that Morrison is just starting out and being paired up in a battle against a friend is tough for him.

Ash starts the battle off by sending out Corphish. Morrison responds, halfheartedly sending out {{DL|Morrison|Girafarig}}. The referee declares the battle started, and Ash orders Corphish to use {{m|ViceGrip}}. Morrison, with his confidence shaken, tells Girafarig to use {{m|Light Screen}}; an attack that won't work because Light Screen only defends against Special attacks. Corphish smashes straight through the Light Screen and clamps onto Girafarig's head with its Vice Grip attack. Girafarig manages to shake Corphish off, sending Corphish sliding back and Morrison weakly orders it to use {{m|Tackle}}. Corphish slides straight into a curved upright icicle, allowing it to slide away from the attack. Girafarig, unable to stop in time, tackles straight into the upright icicle, causing damage to itself. Ash orders Corphish to attack again, but Girafarig, unable to maintain its balance, falls down causing Corphish to miss. Ash then quickly orders Corphish to clamp onto one of the smaller icicles, allowing it to loop around and attack Girafarig one again. Morrison desperately orders Girafarig to use Iron Tail, which Ash tells Corphish to dodge before ordering the lobster to attack with Crabhammer, knocking Girafarig out. Morrison gasps at his fallen Pokémon, before silently calling it back. Instead of sending out his next Pokémon, Morrison just stands there depressed, looking at the ground. The referee urges Morrison to send out his next Pokémon, but Morrison isn't even focusing on the battle anymore. As the announcer remarks that unless Morrison sends out a Pokémon soon, it will count as a forfeit and Ash will win the battle.
