NARRATOR: As Ash's fourth Sinnoh Gym Battle

at the Pastoria City Gym draws nearer,

what better way to prepare

than with some extra-rigorous battle training?

On a road, far from home,

you don't have to feel alone.

Brave and strong,

together we will be.

It's our destiny!

We will be heroes,

We can change the world if we try!

I go where you go,

Forever friends, you and I!

We will be heroes!

Battle Dimension Pokémon!

PIPLUP, CHIMCHAR, STARAVIA: [VERY PLEASED]

GLIGAR: [OVERWHELMED]

ASH, DAWN, CHIMCHAR, BUIZEL, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [CONFUSED]

DAWN: Wow, Glilgar's at it again.

PIPLUP: [AGREEING]

BROCK: I think Gligar wants to be in on the action too!

ASH: Sorry, Gligar but you've gotta wait

a little longer to be in a Gym Battle!

GLIGAR: [CRYING]

ASH: First, we've got to get you some more experience battling

against lots of different Trainers!

GLIGAR: [AGREEING]

BUIZEL, PIKACHU: [BEWILDERED]

GLIGAR: [HAPPY] [CONFUSED]

ASH, BROCK, PIKACHU, BUIZEL, TURTWIG, CHIMCHAR: [CONCERNED]

DAWN: Ash are you okay? PIPLUP: [CONCERNED]

BROCK: I think Gligar's just showing off

that battling spirit!

So, Gligar what do you say to a little practice battle with us?

SUDOWOODO: [VOLUNTEERING] GLIGAR: [AGREEING]

ASH: Great! Okay, Gligar let's give it a try!

GLIGAR: [THRILLED]

DAWN: This's one serious practice battle!

PIPLUP: [AGREES]

CHIMCHAR: [CONCERNED]

JESSIE: Practice makes perfect, day in and day out.

JESSIE: Talk about a Twerp rut.

JAMES: Does that mean it's pluck Pikachu time?

MEOWTH: Those Twerps are so deep in battle mode right now

they're just turn us into a tureen

of Team Rocket soufflé with cheese!

WOBBUFFET: [AGREEING]

JAMES, JESSIE, MEOWTH, WOBBUFFET: [YELLING]

JAMES: I know they're full of hot air but this is ridiculous!

ASH: Okay Gligar, Steel Wing, Go!

GLIGAR: [STEEL WING MOVE]

GLIGAR: [WAILING]

ASH: Gligar!

ASH: Staravia, after Gligar!

STARAVIA: [EXERTING]

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH, WOBBUFFET: [SCARED]

JAMES: What's that?

GLIGAR: [HOWLING]

JESSIE: Hey! Those claws are sharp!

JAMES: Off the tarp!

MEOWTH: If Gligar lets go, we're gonna blow!

WOBBUFFET: [WORRIED]

GLIGAR: [SCARED]

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Oh no.

DRAPION: [PAINED]

GLIGAR: [YELLING] PAUL, ELECTABUZZ: [SURPRISED]

DRAPION: [GROWLING]

DRAPION: [BURROWING]

STARAVIA: [OBSERVING]

STARAVIA: [ALERTING]

ASH: Staravia! STARAVIA: [ALERTING]

ASH: All right! Staravia you found Gligar!

GLIGAR: [SHOCKED] [CRYING]

ASH: Are you all right? We were worried!

DAWN: Ash and Gligar!

CHIMCHAR: [WORRIED]

CHIMCHAR: [SCARED]

TURTWIG: [QUESTIONING]

PIKACHU: [GREETING]

ELECTABUZZ: [GREETING]

ASH: Did you have your Pastoria Gym battle challenge yet?

PAUL: I can't imagine why a losing Coordinator

like you would have any concern about Gym battles!

PIKACHU: [CONFUSED] DAWN: Paul what do you mean?

PAUL: I saw the Wallace Cup..

ASH: I entered the Wallace Cup because Wallace

the Contest Master asked me to!

He thought it would help Buizel's battle skills.

BUIZEL: [AGREEING]

ASH: What's so funny?

PAUL: Remember the reason I entered

the Tag Battle in Hearthome City?

ASH: Yeah.

PAUL: Well, you gave me a hard time

just because I did it to get my Pokémon

in better shape for a real battle!

PAUL: But that's exactly what you pulled at the Wallace Cup,

-get it? -ASH: What'd you say?

PIKACHU: [WORRIED]

DAWN: Brock, I smell a fight coming on.

ASH: When I was in that Tag Battle,

the only thing I was thinking about was trying to win it!

The only thing you were thinking about

was how you could power up your own Pokémon!

PAUL: Well the fact is I did win it!

But you weren't able to win the Wallace Cup now, were you?

Another perfect example of just how strong you aren't.

PIKACHU, TURTWIG, CHIMCHAR, BUIZEL, STARAVIA: [WORRIED]

JESSIE: My aching back.

MEOWTH: If that goofy Gligar hadn't blown out our balloon

we wouldn't of been flying around backwards like dopes.

JESSIE: Next time Gligar gets a knuckle sandwich!

WOBBUFFET: [WEAKLY AGREEING]

JAMES: Look! Twerps thru the trees!

JESSIE: With Chimchar's old sl*ve-driving trainer!

MEOWTH: Now you can give Gligar that sandwich!

JESSIE: That's just what I plan to do!

JAMES: Cool your jets!

JAMES: It appears all is not twinkly in Twerpland.

ASH: Look, both of us have the same goal

of winning the Sinnoh League someday, right?

And of course we also want to b*at

the Sinnoh League champion Cynthia too!

PAUL: Your point?

ASH: After you battled Cynthia

you told me to do whatever I want!

To battle my own way

and you told me that's what you were gonna do too!

PAUL: I guess I said that.

ASH: Yeah well ever since that time I've been thinking more

and more about what it really means to be strong.

That means believing in the strength of my friends!

And that's because I trust and love them!

PIKACHU, TURTWIG, CHIMCHAR, BUIZEL, STARAVIA: [CHEERING]

ASH: That's why I'm working so hard

to make my Pokémon as strong as they can be, the way I know how!

We both may have the same goals,

but the way we get them couldn't be more different!

PAUL: You sure can get worked up.

ASH: What?

BROCK: Easy Ash, calm down!

BROCK: Didn't any of the things Cynthia said

mean anything to you Paul?

CYNTHIA: I'm sure because of our meeting today

something powerful has been placed in each one of us...

Something important!

Something that will make us stronger in our own ways.

PAUL: That's not my thing!

CHIMCHAR: [WORRIED]

PAUL: We're wasting our time. Return now!

ASH: Not so fast, Paul! Let's have a battle!

I want to show you how strong we've gotten!

CHIMCHAR: [ANGRY]

ASH, DAWN, BROCK, PIKACHU, TURTWIG, STARAVIA: [SHOCKED]

CHIMCHAR: [CHALLENGING]

PAUL: Fine by me! How's three on three sound?

ASH: You got it!

Hey, thanks a lot Chimchar!

CHIMCHAR: [PLEASED]

ASH: Let's do it everyone!

PIKACHU, TURTWIG, GLIGAR, PIPLUP, STARAVIA: [CHEERING]

BROCK: Don't get careless!

DAWN: Take it easy and good luck!

ASH: Okay, don't worry! We can't lose!

PIKACHU: [CONFIDENT]

JAMES: Battle mode once again!

JESSIE: Gligar may end up with another knuckle sandwich

before mine!

MEOWTH: Although either sandwich would give Gligar a tummy ache.

DAWN: We'll have a coin toss to see who goes first!

All right choose it you guys. Is it gonna be heads or tails?

ASH: Okay Paul! You choose first!

PAUL: It's tails.

ASH: Ok, then I'm going to be heads!

DAWN: All right coin toss here we go!

DAWN: It's heads! So Ash goes first!

ASH: All right! Now, who should I start with?

GLIGAR: [EXCITED]

BROCK: Whoa, Gligar is psyched!

DAWN: Gligar wins first prize for enthusiasm!

ASH: Okay Gligar, I like your attitude!

This'll be your first battle!

GLIGAR: [EXCITED] PIKACHU: [ENCOURAGING]

GLIGAR: [CONFIDENT]

ASH: Gligar's gonna be my first choice!

PAUL: And foolish too.

PAUL: Now Gliscor! Standby for battle!

GLISCOR: [APPEARING]

GLIGAR: [FEARFUL]

GLISCOR: [THREATENING]

GLIGAR: [WORRIED]

DAWN: Paul chose Gligar's evolved form on purpose!

PIPLUP: [AGREEING]

BROCK: That's part of his strategy.

Paul's way of putting pressure on Gligar!

ASH: Hey, Gligar don't worry!

GLIGAR: [UNSURE]

ASH: You just do what I tell you to and stay calm!

GLIGAR: [RESOLUTE]

ASH: Gligar, X-Scissor let's Go!

GLIGAR: [X-SCISSOR MOVE]

PAUL: Gliscor! Knock Off!

GLISCOR: [KNOCK OFF MOVE]

GLIGAR: [PAINED]

ASH: No Gligar!

PIKACHU: [WORRIED]

BROCK: That one's got to hurt! PIPLUP: [AGREEING]

GLIGAR: [PAINED]

ASH: Come on Gligar, Sand att*ck!

GLIGAR: [SAND att*ck MOVE]

GLISCOR: [CONFUSED]

BROCK: I see! Ash's using Sand att*ck

to make it harder for Gliscor to land a direct hit!

DAWN: But look at Gliscor!

It's acting like it doesn't feel a thing!

PAUL: Use Guillotine!

GLISCOR: [GUILLOTINE MOVE]

GLIGAR: [WORRIED]

GLISCOR: [ATTACKING]

ASH: Quick counterattack with Steel Wing!

GLIGAR: [STEEL WING MOVE]

GLISCOR: [HITTING] GLIGAR: [YELLING]

GLISCOR: [PLEASED]

GLIGAR: [DAZED]

ASH: Oh man, Gligar!

DAWN: With just one hit!

PIPLUP: [CONCERNED]

BROCK: You see, Guillotine is a move

that will instantly knock out your opponent

if it manages to make contact. Paul's a tough one!

JAMES: That Gliscor glitters!

JESSIE: I'll keep my knuckle sandwich!

MEOWTH: After what Gliscor put Gligar through,why waste food?

WOBBUFFET: [AGREEING]

ASH: C'mon, you did your best!

GLIGAR: [SAD]

PIKACHU, CHIMCHAR, BUIZEL, STARAVIA, TURTWIG: [ENCOURAGING]

GLIGAR: [PLEASED]

PAUL: Now might be the perfect time

to let your Gligar know that a loss is the Trainer's fault!

BUIZEL, TURTWIG, STARAVIA: [ANGRY MUTTERING]

CHIMCHAR: [ANGRY]

ASH: Okay, you stay here and cheer for the rest of us!

GLIGAR: [AGREES]

PAUL: Now, Ursaring! Stand by for battle!

URSARING: [APPEARING]

ASH: Ursaring!

CHIMCHAR: [VOLUNTEERING]

ASH: You wanna go next?

CHIMCHAR: [CONFIDENT]

PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

CHIMCHAR: [CONFIDENT]

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

CHIMCHAR: [CHALLENGING]

URSARING: [CHALLENGING]

PAUL: This is interesting.

DAWN: Okay, Chimchar, go for it!

PIPLUP: [ENCOURAGING]

ASH: All right, Flamethrower now!

CHIMCHAR: [FLAMETHROWER MOVE]

URSARING: [BLOCKING]

DAWN: It didn't even dodge!

BROCK: I guess that's what confidence does.

ASH: Flamethrower's a bit more powerful now, you think?

PAUL: Focus Blast!

URSARING: [FOCUS BLAST MOVE]

CHIMCHAR: [STRUGGLING]

CHIMCHAR: [UNSURE] [SURPRISED]

ASH: Awesome the way you took that! Now use Dig!

CHIMCHAR: [DIG MOVE]

PAUL: Hammer Arm in the ground!

URSARING: [HAMMER ARM MOVE]

ASH, PIKACHU, BUIZEL, GLIGAR, STARAVIA, TURTWIG: [SHOUTING]

URSARING: [ATTACKING]

CHIMCHAR: [PAINED]

ASH: Chimchar, Flamethrower, go get them!

CHIMCHAR: [SCARED]

ASH: Hey Chimchar, what's wrong with you?

URSARING: [THREATENING]

CHIMCHAR: [TERRIFIED]

URSARING: [TERRIFYING]

CHIMCHAR: [YELLING]

DAWN: What could've gotten into Chimchar?

BROCK: Chimchar's flinching with fear!

As well as Secret Power being a normal att*ck,

its effects change depending on what your location is!

BROCK: In rocky terrain like this,

it makes opponents flinch with fear.

PAUL: Are you sure it's the Secret Power

that's got you so scared?

ASH: Come on Chimchar snap out of it!

CHIMCHAR: [UNSURE]

PIKACHU, GLIGAR, TURTWIG, STARAVIA, BUIZEL: [ENCOURAGING]

DAWN: You can do it, Chimchar!

PIPLUP: [ENCOURAGING]

ASH: Chimchar, you've got a chance to counterattack,

so don't blow it!

CHIMCHAR: [NERVOUS] JESSIE: Now that's spirit!

JAMES: Chimmy you take a licking and keep on ticking!

MEOWTH: And keeping its flame to the grindstone!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMING]

PAUL: Hammer Arm now!

CHIMCHAR: [NERVOUS] URSARING: [THREATENING]

CHIMCHAR: [FRIGHTENED] URSARING: [ATTACKING]

CHIMCHAR: [FAINTING]

ASH: Chimchar, no!

ASH: Ch.Ch- Chimchar?

PAUL: Guess that's that.

URSARING: [CONFUSED]

ASH: You're all right!

CHIMCHAR: [FURIOUS]

ASH: What the... What happened?

DAWN: Is that what I think that is?

BROCK: It's Chimchar's special ability, Blaze!

GLIGAR, TURTWIG, BUIZEL, PIKACHU, STARAVIA: [AMAZED]

JESSIE: Talk about digging deep!

JAMES: Those flames have a life of their own!

MEOWTH: Burn baby Burn!

CHIMCHAR: [THREATENING]

URSARING: [ANXIOUS]

ASH: Wait. that doesn't look like any Blaze I've seen.

PAUL: Chimchar's finally awake.

ASH: This must be what Paul was talking about!

GLIGAR: [NERVOUS]

DAWN: Paul couldn't get that to happen

after all of their special Training!

BROCK: But, Chimchar wasn't being cheered on by its friends!

BROCK: Chimchar wants Ash to win,

and Chimchar also wants to show Paul its strength!

And when you combine that with

all the support of Ash's Pokémon.

BROCK: .That would explain

where all that massive power comes from!

CHIMCHAR: [ENRAGED]

ASH: Looks like we've really gotten through to Chimchar!

Time to show Paul what Chimchar's really made of!

Full power Flamewheel Go!!

CHIMCHAR: [FLAMEWHEEL MOVE]

PAUL: Ursaring, Focus Blast!

URSARING: [FOCUS BLAST MOVE]

CHIMCHAR: [RAGING]

URSARING: [STRUGGLING]

CHIMCHAR: [HITTING]

CHIMCHAR: [WRATHFUL]

PAUL: That must be the most powerful Flame Wheel

that I've ever seen.

ASH: Hey Chimchar, you won it!

DAWN: The battle's over already! Please stop!

BROCK: I don't think Chimchar even hears you!

ASH: Chimchar! Stop it!

CHIMCHAR: [SURPRISED]

CHIMCHAR: [UNCONTROLLABLE]

ASH: Paul, look out!

CHIMCHAR: [FRENZIED]

JAMES, MEOWTH, JESSIE, WOBBUFFET: [SURPRISED]

CHIMCHAR: [FURY]

JAMES, MEOWTH, JESSIE, WOBBUFFET: [HOWLS]

JAMES, MEOWTH, JESSIE: We're blasting off again!

BROCK: Look! The fire!

DAWN: Quick, Piplup, Whirlpool!

PIPLUP: [WHIRLPOOL MOVE]

ASH: Now Buizel, Water g*n, go!

BUIZEL: [WATER g*n MOVE]

CHIMCHAR: [ENRAGED]

ASH: Chimchar stop!

CHIMCHAR: [FURIOUS] PIKACHU: [PLEADING]

CHIMCHAR: [RAGING] PIKACHU: [PANICKING]

CHIMCHAR: [BITING]

DAWN: Ash, look out!

-BROCK: Dawn, stay here! -DAWN: Brock! We've gotta help!

BROCK: Ash will handle it!

BUIZEL, PIPLUP, TURTWIG, STARAVIA: [CONCERNED]

PIKACHU: [ANXIOUS]

BUIZEL, PIPLUP, TURTWIG, STARAVIA: [AGREEING]

DAWN: Hold on,

Blaze is a special ability

that's supposed to power up a Pokémon's Fire-type moves

when they really need it!

But to totally lose control like that.

BROCK: Dawn, for all we know,

this could actually be Chimchar's true power.

CHIMCHAR: [RAGING]

ASH: Stop it, Chimchar! That's enough! You won already!

ASH: You won, Chimchar! It's over!

ASH: Chimchar stop!

CHIMCHAR: [RECOVERING]

CHIMCHAR: [CALMING]

ASH: Whoa, that was intense but you're okay now!

CHIMCHAR: [SCARED]

DAWN: Still frightened?

BROCK: After going through all of that? I'm not surprised.

ASH: Chimchar you were great!

ASH: I guess you just surprised us

with all of that power you've got!

CHIMCHAR: [NERVOUS]

PIKACHU, STARAVIA, TURTWIG, BUIZEL, PIPLUP: [AGREEING]

PAUL: You really think you'll be able to control that?

ASH: Who knows? I sure don't yet!

But if anyone can. Chimchar can, no doubt!

CHIMCHAR: [ANXIOUS]

PAUL: Spoken just like a fool!

PAUL: Once you two have figured out how to control that flame,

we'll battle again!

ASH: Okay, Paul it's a deal!

DAWN: Paul wasn't able to tap into Chimchar's true power,

but Ash was. That's gotta mean something.

I just know it!

BROCK: It shows no one knows a Pokémon's potential!

BROCK: .So Trainers have to trust their intuition

as best they can!

And the way Ash learns how to deal with Chimchar's power

is going to have a huge effect

on how his next battle with Paul turns out.

ASH: Hey! Let's you and I work hard

and we'll win the whole Sinnoh League okay?

CHIMCHAR: [HAPPY]

NARRATOR: Major events can happen in unexpected ways,

as this battle between Ash and Paul proves!

The question remains:

What will be the outcome of their next battle encounter?

You've got to stay tuned to find out!
