(Back with the Ketchum's. Mohn with Zoroark's help was going to try and Stop "The Ultimate Weapon" once, and for all. He had two cable wires in his hands and was watching as they both Sparked with electricity in them).

Mohn: Okay One is negative and, one is positive. (Then he realized he had a problem). But which is which? Darn it Mohn! Do not blow up your own town. (Mohn Plugs the two wires into the power orb of "The Ultimate Weapon". Upon doing so, he felt a bit of the energy surge. Seeing this Zoroark wraps his around Mohn, holding on tightly to him, to pull him away, but to let him take a bit of the pressure off him as a means of helping him).

Zoroark: You are not doing this Alone Mohn! (From where they were hiding, Iris, Axew, and Pikachu saw and got worried for them).

Pikachu: No Mohn!

Axew: Zoroark!

Iris: Grandpa! (Then they turn and see Ash (Giovanni) lying on the ground, recovering from the Zap he got from Mohn. Iris calls out to him). Ash! Ash Ketchum, you stupid idiot, Grandpa and Zoroark in trouble! (Ash (Giovanni) is regaining consciousness when Iris goes and then grabs a Regular Wrench to use as a means of protecting herself, Axew, and Pikachu. She takes it and whacks Ash (Giovanni) in the back, knocking him to the ground with a growl in his voice. He recovers quickly and glares at the three of them, making them fearful of what he could do them), I bet I got your attention, huh? (Ash (Giovanni) goes and then towers over them again, intending to harm them. Despite her fear, Iris tries to bravely stand up to him). But I Am not afraid of you! Did you hear me? (Ash (Giovanni) goes and then charges up an Orb in his hand intending to use it on them as Iris continues). And I am not afraid because I know that you are still my cousin. (He throws at them but misses. But it still makes Iris, Axew, and Pikachu scream in fear as Ash (Giovanni) walks after them). The same cousin that is lame at sports. Who cried when I pinned when we were five. (Ash (Giovanni) Still walking after Iris, Axew, and Pikachu with an evil smirk on his face). And you will not wear colorful socks because he thinks they are going to color his feet. (Ash (Giovanni) conjures up another Orb in his hand to fire but ends up firing said orb at the floor in between them, resulting in another scream from Iris, Axew, and Pikachu). And he even though a couple times I am afraid that People find out we are related they will think I inherited your stupid gene. But you are still my favorite-faced Hammerhead cousin. And I love you Ash Ketchum because you are a Hero! And you have never given up on anything in your life. (Ash (Giovanni) reaches over and grabs the wrench she was wielding as a means of Defense, taking it away from her before discarding it to the ground. Then Ash (Giovanni) tells them still having his Evil smirk, making Iris and the Pokémon feel that her speech failed in reaching him).

Ash Ketchum (As Giovanni): Lovely speech! (He Puts a hand to Iris' Shoulder, filling her, Axew, and Pikachu with Fear as to what he is about to do them). Shame it will be your last. This is the end for you Iris Ketchum!

Pikachu: You cannot do this Ash!

Axew: Stop it please! (He winds up to attack them, but then they hear the voice of Mr. Honcho say).

Mr. Honcho: No. But it is a Permanent Detention for you! (They see that he and the other Ultra Rangers that Giovanni captured before having arrived).

Ash Ketchum (As Giovanni): One against tons. It hardly seems fair. (Mr. Honcho and Clara exchange glances at this. Then Ash (Giovanni) signals to his henchmen to take care of them. They leap from their hiding places and take the Ultra Rangers weapons from them leaving them defenseless. Before Ash (Giovanni) turns his attention back to Iris, Axew, and Pikachu, as she tries again to reach Ash deep inside Giovanni's evil body).

Iris: Ash, please do not! Because I know what you are in there! (Ash (Giovanni)'s body begins to twitch as if Iris' words affected him somehow), I need you! Grandpa Mohn and Zoroark need you! The World needs you! (Ash (Giovanni) Growls and Screams pulling away from her, Axew, and Pikachu making them gasp in shock at seeing this). Oh my god, is it Working!? I do not believe it. (Ash (Giovanni) keeps growling and roaring as he collapses to the ground as Iris tells him). Keep fighting Ash. (After a moment, Ash (Giovanni) gets back up and charges an Orb in his hand. She, Axew, and Pikachu scream bracing themselves for their end... until he turns and fires a total of Four orbs that get rid of his henchmen, saving the Ultra Rangers from them. Iris, Axew, and Pikachu feel relieved at seeing that from him. They watch as Ash (Giovanni) stands up again and Iris asks a little afraid and hesitant to know the answer to the question she asks). Is it really you? (He turns to them and answers sounding less threatening and hostile).

Ash Ketchum (As Giovanni): For the record, I never cried when you pinned me, I had something in my eyes. (Now Iris, Axew, and Pikachu feel relieved knowing that their Ash is in there and is back and in control now).

Pikachu: Thank Goodness.

Axew: You said it.

Iris: Fine, I am only glad you are you. (She then realizes that during her speech to try and save Ash she let something slip). If you ever tell anyone I said that... You know, the word "L" word... (He smiles, knowing what she was referring to).

Ash Ketchum (As Giovanni): Do not worry. Your secret is safe. Step back! (She does so, as Giovanni moving a part of his Orange Suit to the Side, revealing the Pokétrix Logo. Ash (Giovanni) goes and then presses it. Starting the De-transformation sequence to turn back into Ash Ketchum. His Body convulses with Pain as he lets out small but painful growls of pain as he collapses onto his hands and knees. Everyone watches on in fear and worry for his wellbeing, from the Ultra Rangers to Iris, Axew, and Pikachu. Screams of Pain and Agony erupt from Ash/Giovanni until finally the body of Ash's Giovanni Form disappears and is now in place of it is the body of Ash Ketchum. He gets back on his feet and walks over to Iris, Pikachu, and Axew feeling a little winded from it but tells them with a small smile on his face).

Ash: I am okay! (Their Ash Ketchum was back but they still had to stop "The Ultimate Weapon" once, and for all).
