{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrive at the [[Eterna Gym]] for Ash's second [[Sinnoh]] [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}. [[Gardenia]] arrives shortly after and they prepare for their official battle. Outside the [[Gym]], {{TRT}} plans to tunnel underneath to steal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, though it is something they have done before and [[James]] is left completely unenthusiastic about it.


The three-on-three Gym battle begins as Gardenia summons {{p|Cherubi}} as Ash sends out {{AP|Turtwig}}. Turtwig makes the first move with {{m|Tackle}}, but Cherubi dodges effortlessly. Turtwig follows up with {{m|Razor Leaf}}, but Cherubi dodges that as well. {{an|Brock}} notices that this amazing speed is coming from the [[harsh sunlight]] enabling Cherubi's [[Ability]], {{a|Chlorophyll}}. Cherubi fires an instant {{m|Solar Beam}} [[Move|attack]], which Turtwig jumps up to dodge. Thinking it will take time to fire another, Ash commands Turtwig to use Razor Leaf, but to their surprise, the harsh sunlight allows Cherubi to fire another instant Solar Beam, negating the Razor Leaf and hitting Turtwig. Cherubi uses {{m|Magical Leaf}}, but Ash recalls Turtwig before the move can land, causing Gardenia to commend Ash on the smart decision. Underneath, Team Rocket continues digging as they emerge into a lit [[The Underground|underground]] tunnel. A [[Underground Man|miner]] approaches and Team Rocket recites its {{motto}}. The miner reveals that there are treasures underneath, [[Shard]]s and [[Sphere]]s among them. He recruits Team Rocket to help find the treasure and split the profit.

Meanwhile, Ash sends out {{AP|Staravia}}. Cherubi launches another Solar Beam, but Staravia dodges and uses {{m|Wing Attack}}. Cherubi dodges and readies another Solar Beam, but is unable to do an instant-fire due to the sun now being concealed by clouds. Cherubi switches to Magical Leaf, and Staravia flies straight up, eventually getting out of Magical Leaf's range. Ash has Staravia descend slowly, which confuses everyone, before having him use a nosediving Wing Attack. Gardenia commands Cherubi to dodge, but the harsh sunlight returns and blinds Cherubi, rendering it vulnerable to Staravia's Wing Attack, which explains why Ash waited to counterstrike. Staravia follows up with {{m|Quick Attack}}, followed by an {{m|Aerial Ace}} that [[fainting|knocks out]] Cherubi.

===Dub edits===
* In the original Japanese version, when Team Rocket digs a hole and end up in the [[The Underground|Sinnoh Underground]], they wonder if they dug to too far and ended up in {{wp|Hell}}. They also reference Hell in their motto. In the English dub, they say it doesn't look like a {{type|Grass}} Gym since it doesn't have grass. They also don't mention Hell in their motto, likely because of the religious connotations.
