firsthand and now it’s Ash’s turn to
face this very type trainer in a gym
battle Ash’s six Kalos gym badges on the
line what will his strategy be
[Music]
yes it’s finally today
hey Sawyer have you ever watched a gym
battle before no it’s my first time my
heart’s pounding like you wouldn’t even
believe but Ash is battling not you I
hope you’ll be out there cheering
of course have you figured out how to
deal with Valerie’s fairy types judging
from her challenge yesterday it’s clear
there’s a lot we don’t know about her
battling techniques I haven’t not yet
hey Ash will be fine Ash and his Pokemon
have always worked together which is the
key to winning Gym badges that’s why
he’ll be able to beat Valerie yeah
you’ve got that right
[Music]
[Applause]
Pokemon
[Music]
fairy type trickery
we welcome you to the levere gym I’m
here for a gym battle
[Music]
[Music]
oh yeah
[Music]
we’re Spectators today okay I know that
if we watched their battle closely we’ll
learn a lot I’ll be sure to make lots of
notes on this experience
and we will too right all right
learning’s fun
hold on where’s Valerie no need to rush
these things the gym leader will be here
shortly
[Music]
like a designer’s gym should look
it’s her
it’s Valerie
foreign
the time has finally come Valerie the
Lavere gym leader is now making her
entrance
I welcome you all to my gym
I believe your name is Ash right how
many gym badges do you have I have five
of them right now and after this I’ll
have six Gym badges
such Spirit you’re certainly confident
aren’t you
but I won’t let you win that easily the
stronger the opponents we Face the more
we get totally fired up and psyched
We’re not gonna lose this battle no way
all right then shall we
the levere gym battle between Valerie
the gym leader and Ash from Pallet Town
the Challenger will now get underway
each trainer will have the use of two
Pokemon and the battle will be over when
either trainer’s Pokemon are unable to
continue furthermore only the Challenger
will be permitted to substitute Pokemon
that’s all too huh
I’ll choose first Sylveon
[Music]
appears
[Music]
it’s Sylveon Sylvie so Sophie yeah the
answer
it’s just like Serena said Valerie talks
with Pokemon
[Music]
honestly I’ve always wanted to be a
Pokemon so I managed to learn how to
speak with them awesome it’s true I
can’t communicate with every Pokemon but
I can’t understand most of what my
Pokemon are telling me she learned how
to talk to Pokemon because she wants to
be a Pokemon I use fairy type pokemon in
my gym I happen to be quite strong so
watch your step
here’s my first Pokemon questioner I
Choose You
[Music]
good well then make your move okay here
we go
[Music]
begin
let’s do this Fletchinder now you still
win
that was perfect and it was super
effective got it that just showed us
Steel type moves are really effective
against fairy type pokemon
oh are you all right
[Music]
hey all right we can’t underestimate
them can we but this time it’s our turn
disarming voice
pack let’s go
quick touch it
what a weird way to battle a Pokemon
battle isn’t just about an exchange of
moves some trainers know everything
about their Pokemon skills and will use
them to their full potential Valerie is
exceptionally good at that
you can do it Sylveon go all the way we
are not done just yet Sylveon fairy wind
s incredible Powers
legendary be strong
need to untie those ribbons
so what do you think gosh sylveon’s
ribbons can do more than just flutter
beautifully you see while fairy types
are graceful they also possess dangerous
hidden fangs
what’s Ash going to do
Valerie when it comes to Hidden fangs
Fletchinder has them too huh heat up
Fletchinder and use plane charge
I’m impressed Giga Impact
We Won’t Back Down you steal away
[Applause]
Sylveon
[Music]
Cali make the call ah right Sylveon is
unable to battle what Cinder wins yes
that’s one down
so that proves Steel type moves are
super effective on fairy type pokemon
just like it’s supposed to be
Sylveon return please
you battled wonderfully take a nice rest
Fletchinder hung in there and beat her
first Pokemon but I wonder what her next
one is she’s a gym leader Ash still
can’t let his guard down there’s still a
very tough battle ahead
be warned it won’t be the same this time
[Music]
there’s that spritzy
spritzy
bigger we saw spritzy’s dazzling gleam
yesterday but we still don’t know about
its other moves
[Music]
you ready Ash it’s your move again you
heard her question her let’s go
legender you steel wing
now use trick room
whoa
who’s that Pokemon
[Music]
it’s Mr mine mine
[Music]
what oh calm down you’ve got to stay
cool okay
surprised you didn’t we Valerie’s using
trick room and if so that could only
mean one thing battery’s totally serious
about this battle I’ve never seen it
before so this is what they call trick
room huh is this a Fairy Type move it’s
a psychic type move and it’s quite a
Troublesome one at that
okay Fletchinder speed it up now use
Flame Charge
Ash knows
hey what’s going on it’s not going any
faster normally flame charges a move
that will increase its user speed but
the challenge is when trick room is
being used the faster a Pokemon goes the
slower it actually is
so Ash called it not knowing that
it’s dodging everything trick room
creates a mysterious space so even
though spritzee’s normally slower than
Fletchinder does it turn into the faster
Pokemon in trick room that’s right
one more time use Flame Charge
[Music]
Fletchinder no oh well well finished
already use Flame Charge again
[Music]
hero ball
we’re not done yet Flame Charge
[Applause]
ah what in the world could Ash be
thinking I’ll bet you that he’s got a
strategy
I know you can do it hang in there do
your best and keep using Flame Charge go
I wonder what trick he’s got up his
sleeve you’ve definitely
it’s like fletchinder’s getting slower
on purpose
hang in there Fletchinder we’ll get our
chance
[Music]
catch dear we’re out of time
legendary you steal away
of course now I understand what Ash is
up to he kept on using Flame Charge so
Fletchinder could attack at a high speed
as soon as trick room disappeared Ash
planted all right
so fast
and blast
foreign
ER is unable to battle the winner is
spritzy yay
thank you but I must say your multiple
flame charges were a good idea it’s been
a while since I’ve been surprised like
that
that Moon blast that was another
dangerous hidden thing Ash took much too
long and he paid a heavy price for doing
that
to return
get lots of rest so how is Ash going to
win this huh
[Music]
Lucha I Choose You
[Music]
My My quite an amusing Pokemon okay
halooch is a fighting and flying type
but fighting type moves aren’t very
effective on spritzy Ash chose Hawlucha
anyway let’s see what strategy Ash has
in mind
stop
I’m counting on you okay now use karate
chop
room
[Music]
they’re using it again
hallucia just relax this is the ring for
today
looks like somebody’s having fun we want
you to enjoy yourselves use moonlight
what power
[Music]
yep it’s strong my
you can talk to your Pokemon too right
not really talking it’s more like I can
sense what they mean I just kinda know
you have much promise
you use x scissors
what did he do that for of course bug
type moves are not very effective
against Spritzee
[Music]
there he goes I can tell Ash is up to
something again Hawlucha taking your
opponent’s moves head on is your
battling Style watch spritzy closely and
stay on its tail
uh he’s such an interesting boy so let’s
see what he’s planning use gyro ball
[Music]
s
all right hollusha use that speed
wow haluch is using the spin from the
gyro ball talk about thinking on your
feet very nice spin halucha use that
scissor
don’t underestimate us dazzling gleam
cut right through that dazzling clean
foreign
never seen that before what an awesome X
scissor they broke through trick room
yeah you did it Hawlucha ah unbelievable
even if a bug type move like x-scissor
is ineffective against a fairy type it
is effective against trick room which is
a psychic type move and that’s the
chance Ash took
hash is amazing that’s his battling
style all right we never know what Ash
is gonna come up with next
I wonder if I can do that too
I wanted to destroy that trick room with
X scissor and that’s just what I did
you’re great at communicating with your
Pokemon you and Hawlucha are a perfect
match
see let’s
luck with this okay now use Minecraft
don’t let it get too close Moon blast
[Music]
Dodge it quick
now high jump kick
let’s see
[Music]
[Music]
is unable to battle Hawlucha is the
winner so the Victor is Ash of Pallet
Town
Hall Lucha that was great
I just can’t believe Valerie long I
haven’t seen that in so long
[Music]
you gave it your best effort I’m so very
proud of you and Sylveon as well
that was truly well done I haven’t been
that inspired in a while
what an amazing battle now be sure to
make a note of this experience
[Music]
Ash you know how a trainer’s heart
becomes one with their Pokemon when
they’re backed into a corner during a
battle
I’m wondering why is that huh
I’m not really sure
but I do know what you mean
here’s proof that you wanted the levere
gym I present you with the fairy badge
congratulations thank you very much
[Music]
we did it we got the fairy badge
[Music]
that’s wonderful Ash Fletchinder and
Hawlucha battled really really hard and
you also learned a brand new battling
strategy the trick room breaker wow Ash
you were so cool I really want to be
able to battle just like you I’ve got to
know how you can battle like that you’ve
gotta teach me uh not sure how to
explain that what are you thinking about
when you’re battling does Pikachu give
you some kind of advice or something
it’ll be easier to explain with a battle
Yeah
and so Ash successfully overcame
spritzee’s trick room defeating Valerie
at the Laver City gym and winning the
ferry badge now there are only two more
badges to win before our hero gets to
enter the Kalos league as the journey
continues
