The chapter opens with {{adv|Platinum}} beginning her face-off with {{FB|Arcade Star|Dahlia}}, where she has to switch her Pokémon with Dahlia's as per the Swap icon on the roulette. [[Looker]] is worried about her, afraid that she won't be able to fight her own Pokémon, but Platinum insists that she'll be fine and asks Looker to go to Stark Mountain to see what Team Galactic is up to while she challenges Dahlia. Looker blasts off with his jetpack and tells Platinum to continue challenging the facilities if he doesn't come back in time.

She then uses {{p|Empoleon}}'s Drill Peck against {{p|Ludicolo}}, scoring a critical hit in the process. The announcer explains the disadvantage that Platinum is at in this situation, and then reminds her that she can quit if she'd like and start over, due to her skill at the roulette. She agrees that she could, but wants to know as much as possible very soon, so she would rather just win now, so she can save "those two".

When he found it, he attempted to take it with him, and caused the first earthquake by moving it. He realized after moving the rock that it was a seal that released Heatran for Team Galactic. The story ends with an image of Charon with control over Heatran.

Platinum begins her battle with Dahlia, where she has to switch her Pokémon with Dahlia's as per the Swap icon on the roulette. Looker is worried about her, afraid that she won't be able to fight her own Pokémon, but Platinum insists that she'll be fine and asks Looker to go to Stark Mountain to see what Team Galactic is up to while she challenges Dahlia. Looker blasts off with his jetpack and tells Platinum to continue challenging the facilities if he doesn't come back in time. The match begins, with Platinum sending out Togekiss and Dahlia sending out Lopunny. Platinum, about to order Aura Sphere on Lopunny, sees her Pokémon afraid and hesitates to hurt it. During the moment of hesitation Dahlia uses Focus Blast, knocking out Togekiss. Dahlia comments on how both Platinum is nervous to attack her Pokémon, and her Pokémon are nervous to attack her. She then uses Empoleon's Drill Peck against Ludicolo, scoring a critical hit in the process. The announcer explains the disadvantage that Platinum is at in this situation, and then reminds her that she can quit if she'd like and start over, due to her skill at the roulette. She agrees that she could, but wants to know as much as possible very soon, so she would rather just win now so she can save "those two".
