On the sidelines, Brock tells May and Max what kind of attack strategy their father is using. He knew from watching Ash before that he favored using Pikachu as an opener, using its powerful speed attacks to knock the enemy off balance and gain control of the battle. By using a slow Pokémon like Slakoth who could dodge Pikachu's attacks, Norman was forcing Ash to fight at his pace, giving him control over the match. | On the sidelines, Brock tells May and Max what kind of attack strategy their father is using.

He decides to try {{t|Electric}} [[Move|attacks]] and orders Pikachu to attack with {{m|Thunder}}. However, Slakoth dodges this attack as well, and responds with {{m|Blizzard}}. The incredible cold keeps Pikachu from attacking back, so Ash recalls it and calls out {{AP|Torkoal}} instead. Torkoal uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, which easily blasts through Slakoth's Blizzard and scores a direct hit, [[fainting|knocking Slakoth out]]. With Slakoth out of commission, Norman calls out his next Pokémon, {{p|Vigoroth}}. Dodging Torkoal's {{m|Overheat}}, Vigoroth knocks Torkoal out with {{m|Scratch}}. With Torkoal down, Ash sends Pikachu back into the arena. Brock explains that by using the hyperactive Vigoroth right after the slow laid back Slakoth Norman is able to disorient his opponents and knock them off balance, as the skills necessary to defeat Vigoroth are completely different from those used against Slakoth. Meanwhile, Team Rocket continues construction on their new hideout. Yelling through a megaphone, Meowth orders [[Jessie]] and [[James]] to work harder. They respond by dropping a box on him and telling him to help out too. | ||
In the arena, Vigoroth dodges a Thunderbolt from Pikachu and attacks with Scratch. Pikachu blocks the attack with Iron Tail, but is hit with a surprise attack when Vigoroth uses Flamethrower. Max says that it's amazing that Vigoroth can use an attack like Flamethrower, causing Caroline to tell him that Norman is fighting Ash more seriously then he fights normal {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. May says that Ash should substitute Pikachu, but Brock tells her that if he does that, his only reserve Pokémon will be the already injured Pikachu. He has no choice but to use Pikachu as long as possible. Sizing up Vigoroth, Ash suddenly comes up with a plan. He orders Pikachu to use Quick Attack, dodging a Flamethrower from Vigoroth. As Pikachu closes the distance, Norman orders Vigoroth to use Scratch, but is surprised when Ash tells Pikachu to take the hit. Vigoroth's Scratch attack hits home, but the powerful Pokémon is suddenly paralyzed by Pikachu's innate {{a|Static}} [[Ability]]. Seizing the opportunity, Pikachu attacks with Iron Tail, knocking Vigoroth out. However the effort is too much for Pikachu and it passes out as well, resulting in a double KO. | In the arena, Vigoroth dodges a Thunderbolt from Pikachu and attacks with Scratch.
