The [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] quarterfinals [[Full Battle]] between {{Ash}} and [[Paul]] continues from where it left off, with {{AP|Buizel}} trapped in the grip of {{p|Drapion}}'s tail. When Buizel tries to use {{m|Sonic Boom}} with his free tail, Drapion just grabs it with its pincer, shutting the attack down. Ash instructs Buizel to inflate and instantly release the floatation sack on his neck, which allows him to escape and hit Drapion with {{m|Water Gun}}, propelling himself into the air in the process. However, Paul expected this outcome and has Drapion use {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, which litters the field with them and {{status|poison}}s Buizel when he lands. Drapion then uses {{m|Pin Missile}} to finish Buizel off, finally bringing Ash down one Pokémon | The [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] quarterfinals [[Full Battle]] between {{Ash}} and [[Paul]] continues from where it left off, with {{AP|Buizel}} trapped in the grip of {{p|Drapion}}'s tail.

Ash recalls Buizel and sends out {{AP|Staraptor}}, who, as a {{type|Flying}}, is immune to the effects of Toxic Spikes. Drapion uses another Pin Missile, which Staraptor manages to dodge, despite all the damage he had taken from {{DL|Paul|Gastrodon}}. He then goes in for an {{m|Aerial Ace}}, but Paul has Drapion deke by entering an interception position, then instead dodging at the last second, before capturing Staraptor with its pincer tail. Drapion then turns around and hits the trapped Staraptor with {{m|Cross Poison}}, before slamming the Predator Pokémon onto the ground, poisoning him with the remnants of Toxic Spikes and knocking him out. | Ash recalls Buizel and sends out {{AP|Staraptor}}, who, as a {{type|Flying}}, is immune to the effects of Toxic Spikes.

Ash recalls Staraptor, and, now aware of Drapion's battling style of luring opponents in and trapping them with its tail, sends out the much bigger {{AP|Torterra}} (only for Paul to scoff and [[Reggie]] to remark that it was foolish for Ash to do this), who instantaneously gets poisoned by the Toxic Spikes. | Ash recalls Staraptor, and, now aware of Drapion's battling style of luring opponents in and trapping them with its tail, sends out the much bigger {{AP|Torterra}} (only for Paul to scoff and [[Reggie]] to remark that it was foolish for Ash to do this), who instantaneously gets poisoned by the Toxic Spikes. Drapion goes in for a Cross Poison, but Torterra overpowers it with a quick {{m|Energy Ball}}. Ash has Torterra immediately follow that up with {{m|Leaf Storm}}, hitting Drapion again, before it pulls itself together and shuts the attack off with Pin Missile, resulting in a huge explosion. Ash, thinking Torterra is too big for Drapion to entrap, then has him go in for a {{m|Rock Climb}}. However, it turns out that Ash has underestimated Drapion; it manages to stop Torterra's attack cold with its pincers, vindicating Paul and Reggie's earlier statements about it being a bad move for Ash to send Torterra out against it. Drapion then uses {{m|Poison Fang}} to send Torterra plummeting back down to the battlefield, causing him major damage. He then uses {{m|Synthesis}} to regain some energy, but despite this, he ends up getting taken out after Drapion uses another Pin Missile. | ||
Ash recalls Torterra, and Paul asks Ash if his {{AP|Gliscor}} will be his sixth Pokémon, to which Ash responds that Paul is correct. Paul then [[recall]]s Drapion as he tells Ash that he was able to figure out his strategy and Pokémon team by purposely letting him defeat {{DL|Paul|Aggron}} and Gastrodon, and also that, ever since he sent out Drapion, he had been able to predict every one of Ash's moves. However, Ash shows no signs of worry, and tells Paul that there is no one like him, which is why he is going to win this battle, before Paul replies that ''he'' is the one who will win. | Ash recalls Torterra, and Paul asks Ash if his {{AP|Gliscor}} will be his sixth Pokémon, to which Ash responds that Paul is correct.
