JN046: Difference between revisions

Scaling the steep cliffs around Cero Island, the boys rush up to a steep ledge to admire the expansive wilderness. Goh then pulls out his special sensor device, however a scan of the area yields no search results for the mysterious source of the psychic energy. Ash suggests they just head off in whatever direction. Ash makes the first move by leaping down the cliffs into the jungle below, while Goh tries to keep up with Ash's enthusiasm. They stop at a large tree full of Pokémon, where Goh {{pkmn2|caught|catches}} an aggressive {{p|Mankey}}. The other Mankey then go on the attack, chasing the boys through the jungle and into a bog. Goh manages to rush to hard ground and calls out his {{p|Heracross}} to save Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} form sinking further. Goh, with the help of his {{p|Caterpie}}'s {{m|String Shot}}, then makes a zip line to cross the boggy river. While swinging their way over to the other side, Goh is attacked by a {{p|Kingler}} and {{p|Krabby}}. Ash helps pull Goh away from Kingler's claws, while Goh catches the Krabby with ease. Next obstacle, Ash and Goh arrive at a fast-moving river. Ash leads the way across some stepping stones, but his river crossing is interrupted by a passing {{p|Gyarados}}. Goh tries to throw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at the Atrocious Pokémon, but it quickly breaks free. Ash orders Pikachu to attack with an {{m|Electroweb}}, which subdues the Gyarados enough for Goh to reach Ash's side. The Gyarados manages to break free and attacks the boys with a torrent of water, propelling them into the river. Goh calls on his {{p|Dewgong}}'s assistance, but its efforts fail to stop everyone from going over a waterfall.

Mewtwo considers its next course of action before accepting Ash and Goh's challenges, before confidently ordering them to put their dreams on the line. With a glint in their eyes, Ash and Goh call out Pikachu and {{TP|Goh|Cinderace}}, respectively. Pikachu leaps forward with an {{m|Iron Tail}} while Cinderace tries a {{m|Blaze Kick}}, but Mewtwo easily holds off both attacks and tosses both Pokémon back at their Trainers. The boys remain defiant, with Ash ordering Pikachu to attack with {{m|Quick Attack}}. Mewtwo blocks Pikachu's advance, which allows Cinderace to land a Blaze Kick on it. Pikachu then uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}, only for Mewtwo to hold his attempts off with a counter {{m|Shadow Ball}}. Pikachu is thrown against a stone ledge. Ash manages to break his fall, and switches Pikachu out for {{AP|Lucario}}. Mewtwo quickly knocks Cinderace and Lucario back with a pair of Shadow Balls, however the Pokémon are determined to fight on. Ash orders Lucario use {{m|Double Team}} followed by {{m|Force Palm}} while Cinderace rushes forward with Quick Attack, however Mewtwo holds them both off. Cinderace launches another Blaze Kick and Lucario tries a {{m|Reversal}} attack. Mewtwo remains unfazed and grabs both Pokémon before tossing them away. However, Lucario and Cinderace insist on battling on. An explosive {{m|Pyro Ball}} and {{m|Aura Sphere}} combination is held off by Mewtwo's {{m|Barrier}} defence, and it emerges unscathed. Mewtwo makes the final stand, launching a ginormous Shadow Ball to defeat its opponents.
