As Ichigo's time in the Unova League continues, he faces off against Uryu in a full six-on-six battle. Ichigo was able to defeat Uryu's Froslass, but Uryu's tactics and intelligent mind gave him an advantage and he's already lost Tauros and Palpitoad. Can Ichigo defeat Uryu or is Uryu too strong?

Ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Walking down this endless highway
With nothing but my friends beside me
We'll never give in, we'll never rest
Advanced Battle is the ultimate test
From the earth, the land
The sea and sky
They can never win, but they sure can try
Ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Pokémon
(Advanced Battle!)
Oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm undefeatable
From the stars and the ancient past
They come to play, but they'll never last
Ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm unbeatable
Pokémon
(Advanced Battle!)
Ohh oh-oh-oh oh-oh
I'm undefeatable
Oh oh oh
(Advanced Battle!)
I'm unbeatable
Pokémon

(Ichigo's voice) Even by Uncertainty

"Crobat, I choose you!" Ichigo said as he unleashed his next choice.

"Crobat!"

"Ichigo's next choice is his Crobat. Crobat will have to outmaneuver Pidgeot if Ichigo is going to stay in this battle."

"Crobat use Wing Attack." Ichigo said.

"Pidgeot use Steel Wing." Uryu said. Both pokemon used their attacks and were flying right at each other, but Pidgeot maneuvered better and was able to land a hit against Crobat.

"Ouch! Crobat failed to land a hit, but Pidgeot didn't."

"Poor Crobat. That Pidgeot is just so fast." Orihime said.

"Ichigo has to find a way to slow that Pidgeot down." Renji said. "If he can't figure out how to do that, I don't see how he can win."

"Crobat use Air Cutter." Ichigo said. Crobat used the attack, but Pidgeot flew around and was avoiding each of Crobat's attacks. "Stay still."

"Only a fool would stay and take an attack. Pidgeot use Feather Dance." Uryu said. Pidgeot flew over Crobat with some feathers falling off.

"Crobat, get out of the way! We can't let your attack power go down." Ichigo said. Crobat did it's best to fly away from the feathers.

"Look at Crobat go. It's desperately trying to keep those feathers from weakening its power."

"You can run, but you can't hide. Pidgeot use Steel Wing." Uryu said.

"Pidgeo!" Pidgeot flew straight down and slammed its wings against Crobat and was pushing Crobat down.

"Crobat, you've got to use Supersonic." Ichigo said. Crobat was able to fight through Pidgeot's force and unleashed the sonic attack. Pidgeot got caught in it and flew away from Crobat just before hitting the ground. Pidgeot was flying around for no reason from the confusion.

"Pidgeot, you need to snap out of it!" Uryu said, but Pidgeot couldn't hear.

"Pidgeot is so confused from the Supersonic that it doesn't hear Uryu."

"Now use Air Cutter." Ichigo said. Crobat unleashed the attack and blasted Pidgeot out of the sky. "Nice work. Now use your Cross Poison." Crobat used the attack as Pidgeot was falling and blasted Pidgeot again with Pidgeot crashing into the ground.

"That has got to hurt."

"Pidgeot?" Uryu said as he wondered if Pidgeot was still confused. Pidgeot flew up and was still confused. "I've got to switch." Uryu was about to swith pokemon, but he saw Pidgeot act out. Pidgeot started generating its Hurricane attack.

"It looks like Pidgeot is still using its attacks."

"No fair. It can do that." Yuzu said.

"I don't think Pidgeot even knows what its doing." Karin said.

"Crobat, aim for that attack. Counter it with Air Cutter." Ichigo said. Crobat used its attack and it created an opening through the attack. "Now fly in through that opening and use Wing Attack."

"Crobat!" Crobat flew through and was able to land the attack against Pidgeot. Pidgeot dropped down and this time it was taken out.

"Pidgeot is unable to battle. Crobat is the winner." The referee said.

"Ichigo has even the score again."

"Yes. He's still in this." Orihime said.

"Pidgeot was pretty fast. I wonder what else Uryu has up his sleeve." Chad said. This battle was far from over.

"Pidgeot, return. You did good." Uryu said and brought up his next choice. "Clawlitzer, it's your turn."

"Clawlitzer!"

"That's the same Clawlitzer he used to try and take on Yamamoto." Ichigo said. "I better keep my distance. I remember how strong it is. Crobat use Air Cutter."

"Clawlitzer use Aqua Jet." Uryu said. Clawlitzer had water form around it and flew up to Crobat. Clawlitzer avoided the attack and slammed right against Crobat. "Now use Ice Beam."

"Dodge it." Ichigo said. Clawlitzer unleashed the cold beam, but Crobat flew around and was able to stay out of Clawlitzer's reach. "Now use your Cross Poison." Crobat shot the attack and Clawlitzer got hit.

"You'll have to do better than that. Clawlitzer use Surf." Uryu said. Clawlitzer formed the wave and was riding up to Crobat's level. Clawlitzer grabbed Crobat and dragged it down as the wave crashed.

"Looks like Crobat is getting all washed up."

"Crobat!" Ichigo called out. Crobat was able to withstand the attack, but was able to get back up.

"Looks like Crobat is still kicking, but for how much longer?"

"We're not going down without a fight. Crobat use Wing Attack." Ichigo said. Crobat flew right at Clawlitzer and tackled it with its wings.

"We can battle back. Clawlitzer use Aqua Jet." Uryu said. Clawlitzer used the attack and slammed right against Crobat.

"Crobat, give them a Wing Attack they won't forget." Ichigo said.

"Give them another Aqua Jet." Uryu said. Both of their pokemon charged at each other with their attacks again. They crashed into each other and caused a little explosion. When the dust cleared away, both of their pokemon were defeated.

"Crobat and Clawlitzer are both unable. This match ends in a draw."

"Now they both only have three pokemon left." Orihime said.

"And one of those pokemon of Uryu's is that Lucario who can mega evolve." Tatsuki said.

"This is bad. Uryu will save Lucario for last." Rukia said. "Gallade is the only pokemon Ichigo has now that stands a chance against that Lucario. Knowing Ichigo, he's going to be using Gallade very soon and that's a major problem for him. It will put him at a disadvantage."

"Maybe he thought ahead." Chad said.

"This is Ichigo we're talking about." Rukia said.

"Gallade, you're up next!" Ichigo said.

"Gallade!"

"I told you so." Rukia said.

"Leavanny, I choose you." Uryu said.

"Leavanny!"

"So your Kirlia has evolved. That still won't save you." Uryu said. "Leavanny won't be affected much by Gallade's fighting-type moves and Gallade also knows Leaf Blade. Another attack that will have little effect. So how are you going to get out of this one?"

"How about we show him. Gallade use Leaf Blade." Ichigo said. Gallade gathered energy around its blades and went on the attack.

"Leavanny use Sunny Day and dodge it." Uryu said. Leavanny shot rays of light into the air and the sunlight intensified. Gallade tried to attack, but Leavanny moved out of the way with great speed.

"There it is. Leavanny's ability chlorophyll is increasing its speed from that sunny weather."

"Uryu's tactics are brilliant while Ichigo is unpredictable. That's what's giving him the edge." Joseph said. "Who knows which one of them will make it to the second round?"

"Leavanny use X-Scissor." Uryu said.

"Gallade use Leaf Blade again." Ichigo said. Both of them had their attacks collide and tried to push the other back. "Now use Close Combat." Gallade was able to moved Leavanny's arms away and beat Leavanny around.

"Levanny, back away. Use that speed of yours to keep them guessing." Uryu said. Leavanny moved away from Gallade and was running all over the place with its incredible speed.

"Leavanny is running circles around Gallade and Gallade doesn't know where to strike."

"Leavanny use Shadow Claw." Uryu said. Leavanny had a dark claw form around its arm and slashed against Gallade. Leavanny continued to run around Gallade to keep them on their toes.

"I have just the idea. Gallade use Psychic." Ichigo said.

"Levanny is moving too fast for Gallade to use that attack." Uryu said.

"Who said I'm using it on Leavanny? Gallade, spread that attack through the field." Ichigo said.

"Gallade!" Gallade sent out psychic energy through the field and it caused rupture through it. Levanny got caught and was sent flying into the air.

"Look at that! Leavanny has been shot into the air. What else is Ichigo going to do?" Gallade got under Leavanny and was ready to attack.

"Now use Vacuum Wave" Ichigo said. Gallade formed the twister that Leavanny got caught in. Gallade shot the shockwave straight up and Leavanny got blasted.

"Wow! What an unforeseen way to use Vacum Wave." Uryu wasn't expecting any of that at all and he was starting to get irritated. Leavanny fell to the ground and showed that it lost the battle.

"Leavanny is unable to battle. Gallade is the winner." The referee said.

"Uryu has lost four of his pokemon now. Ichigo has finally taken the lead over him. Will Uryu be able to make a comeback?"

"You did great, Gallade. I think you should return now and get some rest." Ichigo said. He brought Gallade back in its pokeball.

"It looks like Ichigo is switching out his pokemon. Who will these two trainers be using next?"

"Weavile, I choose you." Ichigo said.

"Weavile!"

"Weavile is the only pokemon Uryu hasn't really gotten the chance to see what it can do." Ichigo said. "If we're nearing the end, Weavile just might keep my advantage."

"Bronzong, you're up now." Uryu said.

"Bronzong!"

"It's Bronzong vs. Weavile now. Psychic-types are weak against dark-types, but ice-types are weak against steel-types? Just how is this battle going to work?"

The end of this battle draws closer and closer. Both sides are giving it their all. Who will win and who will move to the semi-finals? We'll have the answers soon enough.
