Dragonite reenters the battlefield, full of confidence. Lance wastes no time in using his [[Dynamax Band]] to Dynamax Dragonite, increasing its [[HP|stamina]] in the process. Backstage, Alain notes that, unlike Mega Evolution, Dynamax has a time limit, which could end up being a decisive factor. Gardevoir's Moonblast powers through Dragonite's {{m|Max Hailstorm}} and scores a hit, which the Dragon Pokémon successfully endures. Max Hailstorm's secondary effect results in {{weather|hail}} starting to fall over the battlefield, slowly chipping away at the stamina of both Pokémon. Confident that Dragonite can handle it, Lance orders a {{m|Max Strike}}, which engulfs Gardevoir, but even while being pummeled by the [[Max Move]], Gardevoir is still able to use Shadow Ball. Dragonite counters with {{m|Max Wyrmwind}}, which, while useless against a {{t|Fairy}} type like Gardevoir, is still able to completely stop and dissipate the Shadow Ball before it can make contact. Both Diantha and Ash surmise that Lance is trying to keep Dragonite standing so he can attack as soon as its Dynamax state ends. This is proven true moments later as Dragonite returns to normal size and fires a Hyper Beam. Diantha is unconcerned and has Gardevoir attack with Moonblast, evading the Hyper Beam and dealing the finishing blow on its immobilized opponent. Dan declares Diantha the winner of the match, meaning that she'll be advancing to the semifinals to be {{an|Leon}}'s next opponent, although Hop is confident that his brother is going to win. In Diantha's post-battle interview with Team Rocket, Diantha thanks her fans in [[Kalos]], while Jessie gets up in her face and insists that she use Gourgeist as her final Pokémon in the next battle, much to Diantha's confusion.

Backstage, Ash meets with Lance, who seems positive, despite his defeat, and tells Ash to hang in there before leaving. Ash is approached by a very excited {{an|Iris}}, who is eager to let loose after witnessing two heated battles. Ash wishes her good luck against Cynthia, and she eagerly rushes to the battlefield. Once both competitors are in place, Dan gives the signal to send out the first Pokémon. Iris's lead is her trusted [[starter Pokémon]], {{TP|Iris|Excadrill}}, which Ash is excited to see again. On the opposite side of the field, Cynthia sends out {{p|Gastrodon}} as her first Pokémon, marking the start of the battle between the [[Sinnoh]] and [[Unova]] Champions.
