25x40 - Toying With Your Motions!

[bunniefuu]

[playful music]

[narrator] The stage of dreams where the strongest Trainer is determined!

The Pokémon World Coronation Series Masters Eight Tournament!

It's happening now!

The final round, with Ash versus Leon.

Early on, Leon's Inteleon was eliminated, as was Ash's Gengar.

Now, with only five Pokémon each, their battle is becoming red hot!

[Mr. Rime grumbling]

[suspenseful music]

The ground's covered in ice and Psychic Terrain.

So tell me, Ash.

Which Pokémon will you choose next?

[grunts]

Sirfetch'd, I choose you!

[epic music]

Fetch'd!

Pika, pika!

A Fighting type?

Against a psychic type like Mr Rime.

Sirfetch'd is at a disadvantage.

[both cheering]

Go, Ash! Go, Sirfetch'd! Get 'em now!

'Kay, Sirfetch'd, there's something only you can do!

Got it? Now's the time!

Sirfetch'd!

[theme music]

-[Ash] Toying… -[Leon] With Your Motions!

[crowd cheering]

Use Fury Cutter!

Sirfetch'd fetch'd!

[mumbling]

[both grunting]

[announcer] Sirfetch'd attacks fiercely,

but Mr. Rime's just too skillful with that cane!

-Go, go, Sirfetch'd, go! -Swing that leek

-like a saxophone! -For Gengar, dig?

[munching]

[grunts]

[grunts]

Sir… fetch'd!

[groans]

[announcer] It's a direct hit with Fury Cutter,

which is super effective against Psychic types!

Brutal Swing, let's go!

[grunting]

Stop them! In their tracks!

[grunts]

-[crowd cheering] -Sirfetch'd!

Expanding Force!

[Mr. Rime grunting]

[Sirfetch'd groans]

[screams]

-[gasps] -Pika?

This time, Sirfetch'd was hit with a super effective attack!

[groans]

[clangs]

[announcer] The combination of Psychic Terrain and Expanding Force

is exceptionally powerful!

[Ash] Sirfetch'd, you all right?

Sirfetch'd.

Hm.

Hm.

It took the hit well!

And that's because of Sirfetch'd's knightly spirit.

Use Triple Axel!

[chittering]

[mumbling]

Sirfetch'd!

[Sirfetch'd groaning]

[grunts]

Expanding Force!

[tense music]

Use Detect!

[both grunt]

[Sirfetch'd grunting]

Get your shield, go!

-[both gasp] -[announcer] It's flying!

[both] It's stunning!

[Pokémon chittering]

So, you're pole vaulting? Then, for our move…

Use Triple Axel!

[mumbles]

Fetch'd!

[Mr. Rime grunting]

You've got this! Use Fury Cutter!

Here it comes, Mr. Rime!

It's time to cut the field!

Sirfetch'd!

[grunting]

[field cracking]

[announcer] The energy of Psychic Terrain has been eliminated!!

That's the way, Sirfetch'd!

Sirfetch'd.

So that's the reason.

Since it's a Bug type move,

it's capable of destroying a Psychic type move?

I guess not all moves are meant to attack other Pokémon.

Yep! That's the way Ash rolls.

[Ash] Sirfetch'd, return!

You're wrapping this up!

[grumbles]

Be careful.

We have no idea what it is they're planning.

[Mr. Rime mutters]

Let's go, Lucario!

[grunts]

Our bond of friendship…

Mega Evolve!

[growls]

[epic music]

[announcer] After using Gigantamax,

Ash now brings out Mega Evolution!

[screams]

[groaning]

[Dan grunting]

-Aura? -Now that's lively!

Amazing!

Lucario's so determined!

[Piplup chirps]

[announcer] Lucario's Aura is overwhelming!

[screams]

Use b*llet Punch!

Use Triple Axel!

[grunts]

[mumbling]

[announcer] What an incredible dodge!

Even without the Psychic Terrain,

the ice gives Mr. Rime an incredible advantage!

[Lucario groans]

All three Triple Axel kicks landed!

-Lucario! -Pika-pika!

-[Lucario grunts] -All right, time for another Triple Axel!

[Mr. Rime grunts]

[Lucario groans]

[upbeat music]

So it endured that. That's Mega Evolution for you!

[Mr. Rime grunts]

[Ash] Lucario!

Let's use your Aura!

[growls softly]

Now feel its movements. Just like that!

[pensive music]

[gasps]

Build up more Aura!

[grunting]

I like it.

Let me see if you can sense Mr. Rime!

Use Triple Axel!

[mumbling]

[mumbling continues]

[Mr. Rime grunts]

'Kay, quick! Let 'er rip!

[grunts]

[Mr. Rime groans]

[announcer] Mega Lucario counterattacks!

It sensed Mr. Rime's movements!

[Dan] Mr. Rime is unable to battle!

You did it, Lucario!

Pikachu!

[panting]

[exclaims]

[announcer] It's the second of Leon's Pokémon to be eliminated!

[Leon] You really made a difference, Mr. Rime!

Return!

Ash and Lucario, that was impressive!

Thanks, Leon. I really believe in Lucario!

[Leon scoffs]

And this one is next!

Dragapult, now!

Dragapult.

Use Double Team, let's go!

[grunting]

[snorts]

Get in using b*llet Punch!

[tense music]

[Lucario grunting]

Use Flamethrower!

[Dragapult grunts]

[Lucario groaning]

[Ash] Lucario, return!

You're up this time, Dracovish!

Dracovish!

[announcer] Look at that!

It's become a showdown between Dragon types!

Use Dragon Rush!

Dracovish!

[ululating]

Use Dragon Darts!

[grunts]

[grunts]

Quick, stop it!

[Dragon Dart whimpers]

[announcer] That second Dragon Dart didn't land!

[Dracovish whimpering]

-What's wrong? -[Dracovish whimpering]

We'll take that back, thanks!

Once more, Dragon Darts!

[Dracovish shrieks]

[Dragon Darts wooshing]

[grumbling]

You all right, Dracovish?

Draco!

[Dracovish groaning]

[all gasp]

[announcer] What is happening to Dracovish?

[Dracovish] Draco!

[Dracovish screaming]

[whimsical music]

[gasps]

Pika?

Dracovish.

Dracovish.

Dracovish…

[announcer] Something is happening to Dracovish's body!

-What is going on? -[Leon] Ignore it!

We're going on offense!

[chitters]

The collision of Dragon type attacks…

It's awakened a power in Dracovish that may have been dormant

for quite a long time.

What's up next?

How can Ash utilize this transformation?

Use Thunderbolt!

Dragapult!

[Dracovish shrieks]

[Ash grunts]

I was hoping to show Dragapult off. So, let's wrap this up!

Dracovish!

Dracovish, go!

[Dracovish screams]

-What? -Pika!

-Well, all right! -Those spiky things!

-What just happened? -They got it!

-[Pokémon cheering] -[Chloe gasps]

'Kay, Dracovish! Fishious Rend!

[Dracovish screams]

[announcer] It's putting the bite on!

Dracovish is countering, and Dragapult can't run away!

[epic music]

[gasps] That's a lot of power.

[announcer] Now it's clamping down even harder!

Almost exactly like Grapploct's Octolock attack!

Careful, Ash.

You really shouldn't underestimate Dragapult.

Now use Dragon Tail!

[both gasp]

[announcer] Somehow Dragapult's tail has stretched super long!

Don't let go!

Use Ice Fang, now!

[grunts]

[Dracovish shrieks]

[gasps] Huh?

Wait, Dragonite?

[announcer] It's Dragon Tail!

The move that sends a Pokémon flying and then forces a different Pokémon

out onto the field!

Wait, is that even possible?

And right after Dracovish had its awakening!

-[grunts] -Lee, good going!

[Leon] Dragapult, you're still battling a Dragon type!

-[Dragapult grumbles] -Dragon Darts!

[grunts]

Fly up! Use Dragon Dance!

[grunts]

[thumping]

[announcer] Dragonite is gaining speed with Dragon Dance,

but those Dragon Darts are locked on to it!

[Dragonite grunting]

[grunts] Use Dragon Claw!

[grumbling]

[grunting]

[Dragon Darts chittering]

[all whimpering]

[tense music]

[both grunt]

Follow them, Dragonite!

Use Dragon Tail!

[Dragonite groans]

[whimsical music]

[Lucario gasps]

[announcer] It happened again with Dragon Tail!

This time it forced Mega Lucario onto the field!

It must be hard for Ash to work that way.

Ash may have more Pokémon remaining,

but Leon's the one controlling the pace.

Pikachu.

It's okay, buddy. Don't worry.

Pika.

Hm.

[deep breath]

[grunts]

Lucario, let's wrap this up!

[Lucario grunts]

Use b*llet Punch!

[grunting]

[announcer] And it's Lucario with the speed attack!

Use Thunderbolt!

[grunts]

Reversal, go!

[Lucario grunting]

[grunts]

Use b*llet Punch!

[gasps]

[groaning]

Lucario!

[announcer] And Mega Lucario has been paralyzed!

[Ash grunts]

Now, use Flamethrower!

Dragapult!

[grumbling]

[Lucario panting]

[groaning]

[Dan] Lucario is unable to battle!

[announcer] That's the second win of the match for Leon,

making it four against four!

Excellent work, Dragapult!

Lucario, return.

You gave it all that you had.

I already knew Leon's strong!

Even if I'm ahead, he catches up!

Leon looks like he's not even trying.

-Oh, Ash. -He'll be fine!

-No need to worry! -Dragapult's just too powerful.

This could be bad news for the Twerp…

Get it together!

We're up here cheering our little lungs out!

Wobbuffet!

[Leon] What now, Ash?

My Dragapult can still go the distance.

[Dragapult exclaims]

[announcer] So Leon issues Ash a challenge!

Now, how will he respond?

[suspenseful music]

Dragonite, I choose you!

[exclaims]

[announcer] And this time, Ash is going with Dragonite!

Use Hurricane, let's go!

[grunting]

[announcer] And those gale force winds are bombarding Dragapult!

Awesome! It's working!

[wind gusting]

Let loose a huge Thunderbolt!

[Dragapult screams]

[grumbling]

[crowd shrieking]

Did that Thunderbolt just neutralize the Hurricane?

[whimpers]

[shrieks]

Well, well. Is that the best you can do?

In that case… Fly high, Dragonite!

[growls]

Use Dragon Darts!

Draco Meteor, go!

[screams]

[epic music]

Now, Dragapult, dodge them all!

[Dragon Darts chittering]

[Dragon Darts groaning]

[announcer] They've been shot down!

But Dragapult is closing in on Dragonite!

Dragonite, quick, grab onto Dragapult!

[Dragonite grumbles]

Use Thunderbolt!

[Dragapult grunts]

[Dragapult shrieks]

-All right, use Dragonite Meteor! -Dragonite Meteor?

[both gasp]

Now Dragonite's the meteor?

-Go, go, go! -[Pokémon cheering]

[tense music]

[expl*si*n]

[pensive music]

[Dragonite grumbles]

[Dan] Dragapult is unable to battle!

[crowd cheering]

[announcer] Ash had a lot of trouble with that Dragon Tail move,

but he's now won his third Pokémon matchup!

I'm sure they're surprised!

Ending it with Dragonite Meteor, after all.

[sighs]

Hm.

Pika.

Thanks a lot, Dragonite.

[Dragonite exclaims]

[Leon] Now Dragapult, return!

You were amazing.

I thought so.

-Ash, you are the absolute best! -[gasps]

But wait. Have you noticed?

Take a look at your Pokémon…

[Leon] They already appear quite exhausted.

[suspenseful music]

Pika?

Rillaboom, let's go!

[roars]

[rhythmic drum beating]

[grumbles]

[narrator] This is truly a back and forth bout

as Ash, challenging the reigning Monarch,

faces a fearsome battle, as the journey continues!

[closing theme music]
