"Use toxic spikes " says Paul

"Toxic spikes" says Paul as Drapion opens its mouth and a dark purple orb forms inside it. It then fires the ball into the air, which spirals and releases four small streams of purple smoke from the top of the ball.

"Gliscor use venoshield and destroy the toxic spikes," says Ash as Gliscor starts spinning and releases venoshock that destroyed toxic spikes.

"Froslass use shadow ball" says Paul

"Absorb it and use infernal blast burn" says Ash as Typhlosion stood still and shadow ball absorbed in the body after which Typhlosion raised its arms and then a massive orb of ghostly flames formed.

"What's that " thought Paul as the massive orb of flames floats in the air and then it splits like draco meteor but instead of falling it charged at Froslass. Froslass tried to evade but the flames followed Froslass and eventually knocked her out.

"Froslass is unable to battle," declared referee

"Typhlosion return, will give you a treat later on" says Ash as Typhlosion ppinned Ash to the ground before it starts licking Ash

"Not now Typhlosion, " says Ash with laughter as he recalled his pokemon back

Standing back on his feet Ash faced Paul.


On referee's order Paul sends his Electivire, final pokemon.

"Now it's time for revenge" says Ash as he sends his Infernape

"Infernape, battle at fifty percent power and when I signal you, use your full power to finish the battle." says Ash

"You want me to make Electivire and Paul believe that they are equal in terms of power" says Infernape with a smirk on his face.

With referee signalled to start the battle, Infernape and Electivire charged at each other with wild charge and flame charge. As they both connected in the middle of the battlefield, causing explosion and dust particle rises in the air blocking the view of camera,Ash and Paul.

When dust particle settled, down Infernape can be seen under the grip of Electivire's tentacles. This made Paul smiled for a while until Infernape disappeared with smoke leaving Paul and Electivire confused. All of sudden Infernape came out with fire punch and landed a powerful sky uppercut near Electivire's jaw sending it crashed near Paul

"Now tell me who is strong," said Infernape as he started to taunt Electivire which made him angry.

"Electivire use thunder full power, " said Paul which made Ash smirk

"Infernape take the attack," said Ash

"He is asking Infernape to take the attack. I think he is planning to loose," says Paul to himself.

As Infernape took the attack, he started to glow yellow.

"Infernape use close combat," said Ash as Infernape disappeared and appeared beside Electivire and landed the powerful punch in Electivire's abdomen making it spit some blood. With that Electivire engulfed in flames.

"Electivire use thunder on yourself, " said Paul but Ash and Infernape started to giggle.

Electivire used thunder on itself but nothing happend.

"What" said Paul in shock

"Infernape already switched the abilities with Electivire when they clashed earlier. " says Ash as Electivire get pummeled by Infernape's combat techniques. Infernape jumped and grapped Electivire by legs and then threw it in the air. Electivire balanced itself and landed powerful earthquake which unbalanced Infernape a little bit.

Electivire charged at Infernape with karate chop. Electivire raised its arms and its tried to land it on Infernape but he stopped it with the iron tail and used overheat on close range engulfing Electivire in flames.

"Well it seems Paul is the one who is at disadvantage, " said Dawn as Piplup is cheering for Infernape.

Electivire then used focus blast which infernape deflected with blaze kick sending focus blast back at Electivire. Electivire used thunderbolt to destroy it and used quick attack. Infernape also used quick attack and both of them engaged in battle of pure strength.

Infernape used all of his strength and grabbed Electivire by his arms and threw him off. Electivire used his body weight to balance itself and Electivire hits both of its tails into the ground and uses thunder, sending large pieces of rock flying at the Infernape. Infernape used close combat to defelect every piece of rock away from him. Taking the advantage distraction Electivire used psychic, his newly learned move. Infernape is now under the grip of the Electivire.

"It seems Electivire played its trump move, " said announcer

"What you have to say Ketchum," asked Paul

"You really underestimated me Paul, " said Ash as Infernape glowed dark and released himself from psychic grip.

"How, " asked Paul

"Infernape trained with my psychic type to break the attack. Now Infernape, use fire pledge, " said Ash as columns flames erupts and surrounded Electivire and then columns merged into one dealing good damage on Electivire.

"Now Infernape use overheat, " said Ash as Infernape's head flame becomes brighter and then launched powerful stream of flames.

"Protect" said Paul as Electivire created dome of energy around him. Infernape then used double team which Electivire countered with his own version of counter shield which destroyed all copies. All of sudden sunlight got brighter, causing the rise in termperature and Infernape launched solar beam. Electivire countered it with charge beam, causing explosion.

Electivire and Infernape then charged at each other with wild charge and flare blitz, giving each other equal competition. Post that battle between the two continued for next twenty minutes which not only engaged the audience but it improved the rating of the league battle.

Infernape then appeared behind Electivire and then explosion happened. Electivire and Infernape can be seen standing opposite to each other. Electivire is surrounded in red static electricity.

"Elect " said Electivire as he taunted Infernape

"What, Electivire can battle, " asked Dawn in shock

"Electivire is Paul's ace pokemon and he won't be going down that easily " said Brock

Electivire then released thunder and Infernape used dig which was the biggest mistake. As Infernape came out, Electivire grabbed him by neck and started to squeeze it. Infernape can't breathe now, Electivire then used hammer arm on Infernape's skull and focus blast before throwing him in the air and fired hyper beam that knocked Infernape on the battlefield.

Electivire walked towards Infernape and started to crush his head with its leg.

"What you say huh. Look who is weak now. Your problem is that you consider yourself as powerful but in reality you are weak." said Electivire
