with Ashes eight gym badge and entry into the Sina League on the line.
Ash now challenges Volker once again,
but will he be victorious and win the coveted beacon badge 
asked for me at the Grand festival,
it's time to return the favor and cheer for him as hard as I can.
Welcome back.
Today's a great day for a battle,
so let's give it all we've got.
Agreed.
I'm really looking forward,
Teoh and the challenge 
begins.
It will be a three on three 
way.
Word's getting around Voelker's back and challengers Air lining up to battle.
But voter promised his first opponent was going to be Ash.
There's no doubt Volker's really fired up,
especially after his last battle against Ash was called off.
After all that craziness went town.
Can't wait.
I'm gonna get my aides badge no matter what.
I hope you're ready,
Ash,
because here's my first Pokemon 
elective fire.
All right.
Ground type Pokemon,
like Tortora,
has a definite advantage against elected fire.
Who's an electric tight?
You're right,
but voters not going to be that easy to be right.
Fire 
with fire!
Whoa!
Now that's gym leader strategy.
Both were skilfully using an attack move is a defense move.
Yeah,
and he's just getting started.
Imagine having a strategy in place.
The battle against the pope.
A mom that has a type advantage over 
man.
Both good.
I'm impressed.
All right then.
Elected by fire.
Well,
well,
they're going for it.
One move.
All right.
Electric fire.
Use ice.
Wow.
I'll bet Wagner had elective Ireland ice punches.
A counter strategy against ground type Pokemon,
you know?
Well,
he's the gym leader after all.
Winning against Volker is no walk in the park,
for sure,
and just watching this battle has got me completely pumped.
Toe ash.
The transition you made from Leaf Storm to energy ball was really well done.
It's like I can feel your spark.
Wow,
I'm thoroughly enjoying our battle 
towards era.
You deserve a really good rest.
Peek a choo ready to go.
I think 
I didn't do a thing.
Now use.
Do you know what's going on?
Of course,
that selective IRS ability.
Ability?
Wow,
that's motor drive,
isn't it?
It neutralizes its opponents electric type move.
That's why it's not taking any damage.
Okay,
it'll be all right type moves,
and they have no effects But if we can get close enough to use fire sale 
man,
that's fast.
Not only just motor drive,
neutralize any electric type moves.
It also increases elected buyer speed as well Elected buyer used fire punch,
fire and ice punches air a double threat.
Yeah,
And as long as Volt owner uses those moves,
ash can't get close.
Not only that,
thunderbolt has no effect.
Elective iron use ice punch once more 
that static pictures ability.
All right,
let's go 
static and sometimes paralyze.
You're attacking opponent when it makes contact.
This is ashes.
Big chance.
What do you know?
Lucky is part of the battle to come on.
Elect a buyer.
Get up!
Use ice.
Good elected Beyer.
Speed is way down.
All right.
Nice work.
Elective fire.
Return the shore is fun.
This is how battling ought to be.
Had me a little worried for a bit,
but he and Piggott you were great,
Ashton.
A great job and now it's all even for now.
But Wagner hasn't shown his true power yet.
Uh,
we haven't seen nothing yet,
but you certainly don't disappoint.
Battling you was well worth the Wait.
Now get ready for 
Well,
I may have 11 but that both nurse something else.
There's no way I'm losing this battle no matter what.
Quick,
the on thunderbolt 
strong.
I told folders just getting warmed up.
OK?
All right,
Settle ball 
way.
Shut up.
All right,
All right.
Way great in Fernie.
Weight ago.
Wow.
Ashes.
Really good.
So who would have ever thought I'd be on my third poking mom by now?
Luxury.
Let's go.
Think so?
Thanks in for Nate.
Now return.
Ready again.
Peek a choo.
I see using pickets.
You again.
Maybe that battle with elected fire gave ash confidence boost.
Right 
way.
What's going on with that shock wave?
Shockwaves not supposed to be very effective against Peek a choo.
Not here.
It's in a league of its own.
Overpowering doubt.
Things will keep going.
That's 
smooth.
All right,
a quick way.
Big.
You okay?
Thank you.
Peek at you.
You were awesome.
Now they both have one.
Put him on left.
You dio Well,
this is it.
Whether I win or lose Ash,
it's sad to think this will be our last battle.
I hear you and I'm giving it my all And I would expect nothing less 
ashes battled really well,
especially against an expert like Volcker.
For sure,
there may be more powerful than Ash,
but right now ashes determination is astounding beyond belief.
At the rate he's going,
Ash just might surprise us all 
way.
I used thunder back.
So for next,
Flamethrowers countered by luxury Shockwave.
Then it for names,
mock punches made ineffective by looks,
raised double team.
And on top of that luxury was able to attack in for Nate with Thunder Fang at close range.
That's Wagner.
When he means business.
You weigh 
thunder.
Use thunder again,
more fattening.
Firday will last.
You make it quick.
All right,
look strange.
Use iron tail.
It's amazing how time flies when you're having fun.
The why regret doing this.
Now use thunder Fang,
and let's wrap this up.
Come on,
you've got to get up in Fern.
If you've got it,
please,
you could do it.
Get up.
Oh,
what do you want to do?
Keep on going no matter what.
All right now looks Ray.
Use thunder Fang jokes.
That's got to be blaze in for names ability that activates when it's taken major damage,
and almost all of its strength is gone.
If inferno gets hit with one more move,
it's over.
But on the other hand,
all of its fire type moves will be supercharged.
This is going to be a do or die battle for the both of them.
If it burn,
it doesn't freak out.
Freak out.
You see,
it happens whenever blaze gets activated.
It completely stops listeningto ash.
That sounds awful.
It waas and it could happen again.
But if it dies,
what we do 
knowing Bernie,
please don't 
wait.
We're cool,
right?
Yeah.
You know,
I believe in you.
Way to go in for Nate in burning.
Heard everything.
Ash said 
Ready.
Okay,
let's get going 
with.
But I'm not losing this.
Alright?
Luxury used thunder 
it burning,
did it?
It's listening to everything ashes telling it to do 
tail.
Let's go 
play wheels 
phrase and nothing 
from 
Here's your beacon badge.
Congratulations,
Ash.
Thank you very much.
You guys put on one amazing battle.
I got a big batch and it's bad number
