(Negi appears in the field)
(Asuna prepares for the battle)
(Negi, thinking): I just don't know what to do… It's not right fighting against Asuna…
(Asuna, thinking): This is payback, for all those moments in class…
(Motsu): Battle begin!
(Asuna): GO! PIGNITE!
(Asuna brings out Pignite)
(Negi brings out Furret)
(Asuna): Go, Pignite! Use Flamethrower!
(Pignite does Flamethrower)
(Negi): DODGE IT!
(Furret dodges the Flamethrower)
(Negi): NOW! Do Iron Tail!
(Furret does Iron Tail on Pignite)
(Pignite goes down, as Furret stands back in place)
(Asuna): Hang it out, Pignite! Now! Use Brick Break!
(Pignite does Brick Break)
(Furret gets heavily hit)
(Negi): NO!
(Setsuna): Poor Negi. He's losing.
(Ayaka): BEAT HER, PROFESSOR NEGI!
(Negi): We're not licked yet!
(Yue): I'm afraid it's over…
(Furret gets back up)
(Negi): Furret! Good going! Now let's hang in there!
(Motsu): Continue!
(Furret runs toward Pignite, as Pignite charges up)
(Asuna): Let's end this! Flamethrower!
(Negi): You too, Furret!
(Both Pokémon does a Flamethrower)
(Both attacks collided)
(Furret dashes towards Pignite)
(Negi): NOW! FINISH IT WITH HYPER VOICE!
(Furret does Hyper Voice)
(Pignite goes down)
(Asuna): Pignite!
(Negi): Now, Iron Tail!
WHAM!
(Furret lands an Iron Tail on Pignite)
(Pignite falls to the ground, with swirls for eyes)
(Motsu): Pignite is unable to battle! Furret wins!
(Asuna returns Pignite)
(Asuna): Not bad, Pignite. You need rest.
(Asuna, to Negi): Okay, Negi! I'm going all-out!
(Asuna): GO, DARMANITAN!
(Darmanitan appears from the Poké Ball)
(Negi): Are you good to go?
(Furret, nodding to Negi): "Yes!"
(Motsu): Battle begin!
(Negi): Use Iron Tail!
(Furret uses Iron Tail)
(Asuna): Dodge it and use Hammer Arm!
(Darmanitan dodges Iron Tail and pummels Furret down with Hammer Arm)
(Negi): OH, NO!
(Furret lands on the ground, with swirls for eyes)
(Motsu): Furret is unable to battle, Darmanitan wins!
(Asuna): Well executed, Darmanitan!
(Darmanitan, raises its arms high): Manitan!
(Ayaka): Aw, come on!
(Nodoka, shocked): Whoa! Darmanitan took Furret out with just one attack!
(Yue): Now I'm scared of what Negi will do…
(Negi returns Furret)
(Negi): You deserve a good rest, Furret.
(Asuna): Hey, Negi! Less talking, more fighting! I'm one win away from being one step closer to victory!
(Negi): Okay. But I'm pulling out all the stops! Let us see if you can handle this Pokémon!
(Negi throws a Poké Ball)
(Gallade appears)
(Nodoka): It's Gallade!
(Asuna): Great! Let's see how it fends against my Darmanitan!
(Motsu): Battle Begin!
(Asuna): Flamethrower!
(Darmanitan uses Flamethrower)
(Negi): Dodge it and use Leaf Blade!
(Gallade dodges the Flamethrower)
(Gallade strikes with Leaf Blade, but showing little effect)
(Asuna): HAH!
(Yue): Even Asuna knows that Grass-type attacks have very little effect on Fire-Types. Fire always beats Grass.
(A few girls stare at Zazie)
(Zazie): What? I got one, but it's too inappropriate.
(Mana): She's not stupid.
(Zazie): Unlike the red one…
(Mana): 2 points.
(Darmanitan grabs Gallade by the head)
(Darmanitan does a Fire Punch on him)
(Gallade goes down)
(Darmanitan charges at Gallade)
(Negi): Gallade, get up!
(Asuna): Say good night, Negi! Slam him!
(Darmanitan does a belly flop on Gallade)
(Smoke produces; the smoke cleared and Gallade was on the other side)
(Asuna): WHAT THE?
(Nodoka): That wasn't an attack!
(Haruna): She's using instinct!
(Ayaka): Instinct, nothing! She almost crushed Professor Negi's Gallade!
(Gallade gets up)
(Negi): Now, use X-Scissor!
(Gallade does X-Scissor)
(Darmanitan goes down)
(Asuna): NO!
(Darmanitan gets up, still hurt)
(Asuna): Good! Now, use Fire Blast, and end this!
(Darmanitan does Fire Blast)
(Yue): That's the move that Asuna beat Ayaka with!
(Ayaka): Don't remind me…
(Konoka): You can do it, Darmanitan!
(Negi, thinking): I can't counter that! What will I do?
(Negi had an idea)
(Negi): I got it! Maybe I can cut through her Fire Wall! Gallade! Use Psycho Cut!
(Gallade does a Psycho Cut, slicing through the Fire Blast)
(Asuna): WHAT?
(Fire Blast disappears, as Gallade charges at Darmanitan)
(Negi): CLOSE COMBAT!
(Gallade does Close Combat on Darmanitan)
(Asuna): GET HIM OFF! DARN IT, NEGI!
(Darmanitan shoves Gallade off)
(Asuna): THAT'S IT! You broke through my Fire Blast, you almost became a pancake, you leave me no choice!
(Asuna is angry)
(Asuna, to Darmanitan): DARMANITAN! Fire Punch! FULL POWER!
(Darmanitan glows red, as he prepares a Fire Punch)
(Negi): I see… Well, then I guess we'll play with power, too. Gallade! Full power Close Combat!
(Darmanitan launches a huge Fire Punch)
(Gallade charges forward and does Close Combat)
(Both Pokémon collided attacks)
(The girls scream, as the explosion occurred)
(The smoke clears)
(Gallade is standing, in pain)
(Ayaka): Gallade's up!
(Setsuna): But where's Darmanitan?
(Darmanitan is out cold, with swirls for eyes)
(Asuna): OH, NO! Darmanitan!
(Motsu): Darmanitan is unable to battle, Gallade wins! Which means the victory goes to Negi!
(Gallade celebrates, as Negi cheers)
(Negi): Way to go! Good work, Gallade!
(Gallade hugs Negi)
(Nodoka, thinking): I'm proud of you, Gallade…
(Asuna returns Darmanitan)
(Asuna, to her Poké Ball): I guess it was fun. Darmanitan, you did a great job, back there. Sorry we didn't win.
(Asuna left, as she was upset)
(Ayaka): Hey, Bells… Great job against Negi. But don't think that our battle was nothing.
(Asuna): I'm not in the mood, Ayaka. I just need to think. After all… I'm happy Negi got his Pokémon, including the others.
(Ayaka, laughing): Yeah, but still… Our match is more than that, compared to your match with Negi! It's too bad that you lost! HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA!
(Asuna): Oh, please. If you'd defeated me, Negi would've beaten you with Furret and Gallade. Even with that pathetic Roserade.
(Ayaka, angrily): What was that?
(Asuna, to Ayaka, very crossed): You heard me! You're still a loser, any way! Negi would've beaten your Pokémon, on way or another, in a breeze! You lost to me, so don't-!
(Ayaka): Oh, here we go! You can't even control a Fire-Type Pokémon!
(Asuna): Shut up! That's the reason why you lost! Fire burns Grass, especially the blonde type Pokémon!
(Ayaka): HOW DARE YOU!
(Ayaka and Asuna start fighting, as the girls cheered on)
(Negi): Stop it! Please, girls! Can't we have a nice battle? Oh, bugger…
(Nodoka is worried, but grew angry)
(Nodoka): Asuna… Ayaka…
(Nodoka, shouting): HEY!
(Asuna and Ayaka stopped fighting)
(Nodoka, angrily): LOOK! I've had enough of you two! Apparently, you two need to get along, after a loss like that! Ayaka, you need to stop teasing Asuna, out of your loss to her, and you, Asuna, you need to behave yourself! The last thing we want is to have our Pokémon upset, over two trainers bickering at each other!
(Motsu): Next battle!
(Nodoka, calmly to Motsu): Hold on, Motsu!
(Nodoka, scolds to Asuna & Ayaka): And another thing… Why can't you get along with each other, just for Professor Negi's sake?
(Nodoka starts to sob)
(Asuna, upset for Nodoka): Hey, Nodoka… I'm sorry… I know we don't get along, but…
(Ayaka): It's fine. Stop worrying. We'll be fine.
(Ayaka, to Asuna): So, Asuna… What do you say? Should we stop fighting?
(Asuna): Sure.
(Asuna and Ayaka shake hands)
(Nodoka smiles, as the girls cheered)
(Asuna and Ayaka hug Nodoka)
(Negi): Whoa… I've never seen Nodoka this angry, before.
(Chamo): Maybe she couldn't stand seeing these two fight, again and again.
(Yue, thinking): You did right, Nodoka…
(Konoka, to Yue): Hey, Yue. Good luck, today!
(Yue): Oh, right.
WHO'S THAT POKEMON: SLOWAT
(Yue and Konoka enter the field)
(Yue): Alright! Now to show what I got…
(Motsu): The next match is Konoka Konoe vs. Yue Ayase.
(Yue): GO! NOCTOWL!
(Konoka pulls out her Poké Ball)
(Konoka): Go, Unfezant!
(Unfezant appears, also Noctowl appears)
(Motsu): It's time to play! Birds battle together, fight forever!
(Nocotwl, scolding Motsu): "Minus 2 points"
(Unfezant and Noctowl glare at Motsu)
(Unfezant, scolding Motsu): "More like minus 5 points"
(Motsu): AAAH! WAIT! You're supposed to fight each other! Not me, as a platter for frog legs! Battle begin! NOW! FIGHT! ANYBODY?
(Yue): Noctowl, use Sky Attack!
(Noctowl does Sky Attack)
(Konoka): Unfezant, use Sky Attack!
(Both birds collide at each other, with their Sky Attacks)
(Yue): Evenly matched.
(Setsuna): You can do this! Miss Konoka!
(Both birds continue to fight, in the air)
(Yue): Okay, Red Konoe! Time you get shot down! Noctowl, use Psychic!
(Noctowl hits Unfezant with a Psychic attack)
(Unfezant flies up)
(Konoka): Hang in there, Unfezant! Now, use Air Slash!
(Unfezant uses Air Slash)
(Yue): Quick! Double Team!
(Noctowl does Double Team, becoming multiple images)
(Konoka): NO WAY!
(Nodoka): She's doing this! Double Team is useful to avoid getting hit!
(Zazie): It's a modern day flying circus.
(Asuna): I can tell. Konoka was called the Red Konoe. Doesn't she mean Red Baron?
(Zazie): Fight, until she turns blue.
(Nodoka): 9 points.
(Zazie): Without landing.
(Yue): Okay, Noctowl, be ready!
(Konoka): Quick, Unfezant! I'm hoping you'd win! Use Giga Impact!
(Unfezant does Giga Impact)
(Noctowl dodges out of the way)
(Konoka): What?
(Yue): Sky Attack!
(Noctowl lands a Sky Attack on Unfezant)
(Unfezant falls to the ground)
(Konoka): Unfezant, no!
(Unfezant swoops back up)
(Asuna): How did she do that?
(Unfezant glows red)
(Yue): Finish it off with Psychic!
(Noctowl uses Psychic)
(Konoka): Dodge it and use Sky Attack!
(Unfezant does Sky Attack)
WHAM!
(Noctowl gets hit)
(Konoka): Now, finish it off! Use Heat Wave!
(Yue, shocked): WHAT?
(Unfezant does Heat Wave)
(Noctowl gets hit with Heat Wave)
(Asuna): AWESOME!
(Nodoka, shocked and impressed): I had no idea that Konoka's Unfezant was able to learn Heat Wave!
(Yue, impressed and shocked): How could it learn Heat Wave?
(Unfezant finishes off Noctowl with Air Slash)
(Konoka): Consider yourself grounded!
(Zazie): 28 points.
(Nodoka): And NO TV for Noctowl!
(Noctowl lands in the ground, severely)
(Noctowl is out cold)
(Motsu): Noctowl is unable to battle! Unfezant wins!
(Konoka, laughing): YEAH! WE DID IT!
(Unfezant flies to Konoka)
(Konoka and Unfezant hug each other)
(Konoka): You did well, Unfezant!
(Unfezant cuddles at her face)
(Yue returns Noctowl)
(Yue, to her Poké Ball): You did great, Noctowl…
(Yue holds up another Poké Ball)
(Yue): Now… Go, Gulpin!
(Gulpin appears)
(Gulpin): Gulpin.
(Konoka): Get ready, Unfezant! Use Sky Attack!
(Unfezant flies towards Gulpin)
(Yue): NOW!
(Gulpin opens its mouth)
(Gulpin): GULLLLLL!
(Gulpin swallows Unfezant)
(Konoka): NO! UNFEZANT!
(Asuna): What move is that?
(Nodoka): I don't know! It looks like Swallow! But I always thought it was used, after Stockpile, to recover health. Yue caught a Gulpin, and it suddenly learned that trick. Pokémon would never eat other Pokémon. But Gulpin's poison body may be disastrous.
(Yue): Spit Unfezant out!
(Gulpin spits Unfezant out)
(Yue): NOW! Use Toxic!
(Gulpin shoots Toxic at Unfezant)
(Unfezant falls to the ground)
(Unfezant flies back up, nearly injured)
(Setsuna): Konoka! Call back! Hurry!
(Konoka): No! I have to beat that thing! Unfezant! Use Air Slash!
(Unfezant uses Air Slash)
(Gulpin gets hit, directly)
(Konoka): Now, use Heat Wave!
(Unfezant hits Gulpin with Heat Wave)
(Gulpin is hurt)
(Yue): Come on, Gulpin! Get up!
(Gulpin let out a scream)
(Gulpin): GULLLLLL!
(Gulpin glows in a light blue shine)
(Nodoka): Gulpin's evolving!
(Yue): No way…
(Gulpin evolves into Swalot)
(Nodoka): It's a Swalot!
(Yue, shocked): Oh, wow… It's amazing!
(Setsuna): It took a huge beating, and it survived long enough to evolve!
(Konoka): NOW! Use Sky Attack!
(Unfezant uses Sky Attack)
(Yue): Use Gunk Shot!
(Swalot hits Unfezant with Gunk Shot)
(Unfezant is badly struck)
(Konoka): NO! Unfezant!
(Yue): Now, ground the bird with Ice Beam!
(Swalot fires an Ice Beam at Unfezant)
(Unfezant falls to the ground, completely dizzy)
(Konoka holds up her Poké Ball)
(Konoka): Unfezant, return!
(Unfezant returns to her Poké Ball)
(Konoka): Hang in there, Unfezant… I cannot afford to lose you.
(Chamo): Konoka played it safe! She returned her bird friend!
(Konoka): GO, AUDINO!
(Konoka's Audino appears)
(Asuna): Well, look at that!
(Konoka): Okay, Audino! Use Flamethrower!
(Audino uses Flamethrower)
(Swalot dodges it)
(Yue): Give it a Gunk Shot!
(Swalot uses Gunk Shot)
(Audino is hit)
(Audino is staggering)
(Yue): Now use Hyper Beam!
(Swalot uses Hyper Beam)
(Konoka): LOOK OUT!
(Audino uses Ice Beam)
(Ice Beam blocks Hyper Beam, but to no avail)
(Hyper Beam goes through Ice Beam)
(Audino is struck severely)
(Audino is down)
(Konoka): NO! Get up, Audino!
(Yue): Now, while she's down, Earthquake!
(Swalot uses Earthquake)
(The ground shakes, as Audino is groaning in pain)
(Audino jumped up, as Swalot roars)
(Konoka): Good going, Audino! Now! Attack!
(Yue): Not this time! Swalot, use Ice Beam!
(Konoka): Psychic!
(Swalot fires an Ice Beam)
(Audino uses Psychic to counter the Ice Beam)
(Swalot): SWA?!
(Ice Beam heads back to Swalot)
(Swalot gets struck, and is frozen)
(Yue): OH, NO!
(Setsuna): What a counter!
(Asuna): With that kind of body, Swalot can freeze itself. I never knew Konoka had a strategy!
(Konoka): NOW! Finish it with Flamethrower!
(Audino fires at Swalot with Flamethrower)
(Swalot goes down, with swirls for eyes)
(Yue collapses in disappointment)
(Yue): Swalot!
(Motsu): Swalot is unable to battle, Audino wins! That means the victory goes to Konoka Konoe!
(Konoka): We did it!
(Audino celebrates)
(Setsuna): She did it! Miss Konoka!
(Setsuna hugs Konoka)
(Konoka): Oh, stop. Setsuna, I'm fine.
(Yue, on her knees, returns Swalot)
(Yue coughs, as she was acting)
(Yue): I'm proud of you, Swalot… But you almost beat Konoka…
(Nodoka runs to Yue)
(Nodoka): NO! YUE! Are you okay?
(Nodoka cradles Yue)
(Yue, weakly): Despite the fact that I lost… I haven't lost my confidence. Nodoka… It's all up to you now.
(Nodoka, in tears): Yue…
(Yue): I'm sorry. But I'll train harder and win… for the Library Club… and then… I'll be a great trainer… for you, Haruna, and Gardevoir… You… don't worry about… me…
(Yue, whispering): Avenge… my loss… Nodo… ka…
(Yue falls dead, playing dead)
(Nodoka is crying)
(Nodoka): YUUUUUUUUUUUUEEEEEEEEEE!
(Asuna and Negi are confused)
(Asuna): Okay… What the hell was that about?
(Negi): Is it just me, or are Nodoka and Yue trying out for the Drama Club.
(Asuna): Heck if I know. I mean, Konoka won, and you won… I mean, geez… It should've been me, against Bookworm or Konoka.
(Chamo): You lost, fair and square, Asuna! Don't beat yourself up over this act! Besides, there's one more match left, before we take a break!
(Asuna): Oh, right. Lingshen vs. Kaede.
(Negi, thinking): No matter who I face, I have had such experience with all four girls. If Kaede wins, it'll be like back in my first days, all over again. But Lingshen Chao, I don't know.
(Motsu): Okay! The final match is about to begin!
(Chamo): Hey, when you finish, let ME be the referee in the next round.
(Motsu): Not on your life.
(Chamo turns white and is crushed)
(Chamo): CRUSHED!
WHO'S THAT POKEMON?: IT'S SWALOT
So Negi and Konoka won their battles and move on to the semifinals, Nodoka stepping in to scold Ayaka & Asuna to stop fighting was really surprising, usually Nodoka's really shy and timid to even step in,but since she had Gardevoir, she was able to pluck the courage to step in, what a friend
