Ash then sends out {{AP|Donphan}}. Shuckle uses {{m|Sludge Bomb}} but Donphan counters with {{m|Rollout}}, rendering Sludge Bomb useless. Conway then tells Shuckle to use Gyro Ball again. Gyro Ball hits and causes Donphan to lose control and crash. As a result, Ash recalls Donphan. Brock notes that Donphan's attack is only half as effective if it ever gets deflected and wonders if Ash switched Donphan because of a strategy change. | Ash then sends out {{AP|Donphan}}.

For | For his third Pokémon, Ash sends out {{AP|Gible}}. Conway notes that Gible had not yet mastered {{m|Draco Meteor}}. Conway has Shuckle use Gyro Ball. Ash uses Gible's habit of biting things to his advantage, and it manages to catch Shuckle in its mouth. To counter, Conway tells Shuckle to use Sludge Bomb in Gible's mouth. Gible is hardly happy about this. With no other choice, Ash tells Gible to spit Shuckle out but Gible has other things in mind as it prepares a Draco Meteor. Shuckle is heaved into the air with a now-mastered Draco Meteor. Shuckle crashes to the ground and is rendered unconscious. Conway recalls Shuckle and thanks it because he now knows which three Pokémon Ash will be using for this battle. | ||
For his second Pokémon, Conway sends out {{p|Lickilicky}}. Ash tells Gible to use {{m|Dragon Pulse}} but Lickilicky uses {{m|Lick}} before Dragon Pulse has the chance to be fired. Gible is treated to a thorough licking while the audience shivers at this disturbing sight. Ash tells Gible to escape by using {{m|Dig}}. Lickilicky counters with {{m|Power Whip}}, which reverberates across the battlefield and throws Gible into the air. Before Conway can call any more attacks, Ash recalls Gible and sends out Noctowl once more. Conway orders Lickilicky to use Power Whip once more but its tongue proves to be too short to reach Noctowl’s altitude. Noctowl then uses Air Slash, which hits Lickilicky right in the face. Lickilicky then uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} but Noctowl quickly dodges the otherwise super-effective attack. Noctowl uses {{m|Extrasensory}} to lift Lickilicky into the air and then throws it down to render it unable to battle. | For his second Pokémon, Conway sends out {{p|Lickilicky}}.

With only one Pokémon left, Conway sends out his {{p|Dusknoir}} and orders {{m|Trick Room}}. Ash tells Noctowl to use Extrasensory but Dusknoir suddenly appears behind it and throws a {{m|Thunder Punch}}. The attack hits and Noctowl is rendered unable to battle. Ash is confused as to what happened and Conway explains that Trick Rooms allows the slower Pokémon to go first. Because Ash's Noctowl, Donphan, and Gible are all faster than Dusknoir, the latter will always be the first one to attack. Brock notes that although Ash seemed to be having the advantage, it was actually all happening according to Conway's plan. Next, Ash sends out Donphan once more. Ash tells Donphan to use Rollout but Dusknoir strikes first with a powerful {{m|Shadow Punch}}. This leaves Donphan unable to get back up. Ash tries to switch Donphan out but Dusknoir uses {{m|Mean Look}} to trap Donphan on the battlefield. Dusknoir uses Shadow Punch again and knocks Donphan out. | With only one Pokémon left, Conway sends out his {{p|Dusknoir}} and orders {{m|Trick Room}}.

With two down, Ash has no choice but to send out Gible again. Trick Room, however, is still in effect. Conway is aware of Gible mastering Draco Meteor now, but claims it won't work this time. Ash tells Gible to use Dig but Dusknoir's Shadow Punch is able to hit before Gible can escape. As a result, Gible is hurdled into the ground. Gible then aligns itself under Dusknoir while in the ground and shoots straight up. Dusknoir is ordered to use Shadow Punch once more and reappears behind Gible. Ash then tells Gible to turn around and bite the Shadow Punch. Gible bites Dusknoir's hand and, as Conway remarks in absolute surprise and shock, eats Shadow Punch. Dusknoir tries to shake Gible off but Gible uses Draco Meteor to shoot Dusknoir into the sky. Dusknoir lands but is still able to battle. Ash tells Gible to use Dragon Pulse but Dusknoir's Shadow Punch strikes first again. Gible, however, hangs strong and releases its Dragon Pulse, which hits Dusknoir straight in the face and knocks Dusknoir out. With all three of his Pokémon unable to battle, Conway loses the battle and Ash is now able to advance to the next round. While Ash and his friends cheer, Conway notes that this was the least calculated battle he ever had but at least he gained a new method of battling. | With two down, Ash has no choice but to send out Gible again.
