Following [[JN034|his | Following [[JN034|his defeat]] at the hands of [[Bea]], {{Ash}} and his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are jogging as a part of their {{pkmn|training}} to win next time. Hearing this, [[Goh]] and his {{TP|Goh|Raboot}} decide to join them. Ash suddenly gets an alert on his [[Rotom Phone]], with his next [[World Coronation Series]] opponent standing only feet away. {{DL|Battle judge|Drone Rotom}} soars into to oversee the one-on-one match, with Ash calling on {{AP|Riolu}} against a male {{pkmn|Trainer}} and his {{p|Octillery}}. Ash notes that Octillery will probably move like Bea's {{p|Grapploct}} and warns Riolu to stay back as much as possible. Riolu makes the first attack. Octillery evades the flurry of {{m|Vacuum Wave}}s before striking back with {{m|Psybeam}}, which manages to {{status|confusion|confuse}} Riolu. In its daze, Riolu is unable to escape Octillery's {{m|Wrap}} attack and is struck out by a direct blast of {{m|Octazooka}}. Ash rushes to aid his Riolu, though the defeat causes his official ranking to drop from 930 to 975. | ||
Ash's disappointment quickly subsides when he receives another battle invitation, this time from a female Trainer with a {{p|Tentacruel}}. Ash again calls out his Riolu, warning it to keep its distance. Riolu starts off strong, evading an oncoming {{m|Bubble Beam}} while firing off several Vacuum Waves. However, Riolu gets too close to its opponent, and is battered away by a tentacle. Tentacruel follows on with a {{m|Bind}} before using {{m|Poison Sting}}, leaving Riolu unable to battle. Ash's official ranking again declines for the third consecutive time, now down to rank 1021, landing Ash back in the Normal Class. | Ash's disappointment quickly subsides when he receives another battle invitation, this time from a female Trainer with a {{p|Tentacruel}}.
