"Return, Zoro," Luffy called Zoro back into his PokeBall.

"Looks like Luffy is down to his last two Pokemon!" The announcer pointed out.

Luffy took out a PokeBall and tossed it into the air. "Come back out, Sanji!"

Sanji, Luffy's Hitmontop, was back and ready to battle!

"All right, Torkoal, use Flamethrower!"

"Quick Guard!"

A blue dome surrounded Sanji and protected him from Torkoal's attack.

"Use Body Slam!"

"Jump and use Triple Kick!"

Sanji kicked Torkoal under the chin three times and the two landed some feet away from the other…

"Rolling Kick!"

"Counter with a full powered Overheat!"

Torkoal blasted his attack, exploding upon contact with Sanji, and sending the fighting Pokemon to Luffy's feet.

"Sanji, are you okay!?"

Luffy and the referee saw the swirls in Sanji's eyes and the ref declared him knocked out.

The announcer questioned what Luffy's last Pokemon was going to be.

"All right, let's do this, Ace!" Luffy released an Infernape!

"Awesome, an Infernape," Ash said to himself. "What do you say, Torkoal? Are you ready for a third battle?"

"Tor!" Torkoal exclaimed, blowing smoke out of his nose.

Ash chuckled. "All right, we're ready."

"The match between Infernape and Torkoal starts now!" Declared the referee.

Luffy yelled, "Open up with Scratch!"

"Fer!" Ace dashed to Torkoal.

"Iron Defense!" Ash shouted and Torkoal hid into his shell.

"Switch to Close Combat, Ace."

Ace began to bombard Torkoal's shell with strikes.

"Don't quit. His Torkoal has got to come out at some point."

"Torkoal, use Flamethrower on the ground!"

Torkoal popped out his head and used the move to launch himself into the sky.

"Now, use Body Slam!"

"Jump and use Scratch!"

Ace jumped and scratched Torkoal's stomach, dodging the Body Slam.

The two Pokemon landed, both facing the opposing trainer.

"Close Combat again!"

"Heat Wave!"

The two Pokemon turned to each other and Ace was pushed back from the Heat Wave, not doing much damage.

"Now, return, Torkoal."

"Smart," Clemont said.

Ash thought to himself, 'Torkoal wouldn't have been able to beat his Infernape, but at least that Heat Wave did some damage for my next Pokemon.'

After the announcer questioned what Ash's next Pokemon was, Ash called out Totodile!
