Prior to the events of the episode Maylene had been challenged by [[Paul]], who brought Pokémon to the Gym that had type-advantages over hers. Worse than that, Maylene felt out of sync with her Pokémon and as a result she suffered an embarrassing defeat, not even managing to knock out a single one of Paul's Pokémon. Afterwards, when she gave him the {{Badge|Cobble}}, he noted how weak she was. As a result Maylene had lost confidence in herself as a Gym Leader, a position she's only held for six months. This, combined with how badly the previous battle went, caused her {{TP|Maylene|Lucario}} and the majority of her Gym assistants to lose faith in her. When {{Ash}} challenged her, she declined, much to the annoyance of Lucario. | Prior to the events of the episode Maylene had been challenged by [[Paul]], who brought Pokémon to the Gym that had type-advantages over hers.

She was challenged by Ash next in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', an even harder-fought battle which resulted in a tie. With the decision now hers, Maylene considered Ash to have battled well enough that she awarded him the {{Badge|Cobble}}. | She was challenged by Ash next in ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'', an even harder-fought battle which resulted in a tie.
