(Japanese: 決着ライバルバトル!サトシ対シンジ!! Conclusion of Rival Battle! Satoshi vs Shinji!!) is the 188th episode of the Diamond & Pearl series, and the 654th episode of the Pokémon anime. It aired in Japan on August 19, 2010.
Synopsis
The episode begins right where it left off, with Gliscor diving towards Drapion with an X-Scissor attack. It is subsequently blocked by Drapion's Pin Missile at the last moment, sending Gliscor flying back and landing on the ground. When Paul instructs Drapion to use Cross Poison, Ash calls out to Gliscor to use Fire Fang, and Gliscor is all ready to go, and jumps up to avoid the Cross Poison attack. Gliscor lands the Fire Fang attack, which envelops Drapion in fire for a moment. Drapion then subsequently fainted, thus leaving Paul with one final Pokémon.
Paul sends out Electivire and Ash decided to leave Gliscor in Battle. Electivire uses Brick Break with its tail, sending chunks of the ground up into the air and they fall onto Gliscor. Ash tells Gliscor to use Giga Impact and Electivire blocks the attack with its hands and catches Gliscor with its tail. Ash tries to call out a command, but Gliscor is unable to make an attack, but Electivire lands a clear Brick Break on Gliscor, thus causing it to faint, leaving Ash with two Pokémon, Pikachu and Infernape.
Ash then sends out Pikachu to attack, and Electivire begins the battle once again with Brick Break. Pikachu uses Quick Attack to dodge the falling rocks, even using some of them for momentum, and lands the attack head on with Electivire. Electivire grabs Pikachu with its tail and when Pikachu tries to use Iron Tail, Electivire jolts Pikachu around so that he can't land the attack, but is able to escape the pseudo-Constrict by Electivire's tail. Paul tells Electivire to use ThunderPunch, and Pikachu tries to circumvent the attack from happening with Quick Attack, but Electivire lands the attack dead-on. Ash tells Pikachu to use Volt Tackle sending Reggie watching from a television in Veilstone City and Barry to stand up, symbolizing that this was a bad move on Ash's part. Electivire has the ability Motor Drive which increases Electivire's speed when hit by an Electric-type attack, such as Pikachu's Volt Tackle. Pikachu feels the damage from the attack and Electivire gains the speed and quickly circles around Pikachu with a readying ThunderPunch. Ash tells Pikachu to use Iron Tail at the last moment and the two attacks collide together, and Paul recounts on a similar situation when Pikachu was battling Electivire when it was just a Elekid, and it was able to punch away Pikachu with the other hand. Electivire uses the same type of attack to send Pikachu flying, and Pikachu tries to get up after landing from the fall, but it is too weak to battle. Pikachu faints from exhaustion, leaving Ash with Infernape.
Electivire and Infernape have a long standing rivalry, even from the Chimchar-Elekid days. Jessie, James and Meowth are busy stuffing their faces, watching this intense battle, when they should be selling the food. Electivire starts things out with a ThunderPunch and Infernape counters with Mach Punch, and the to attacks collide and neutralize each other. Infernape uses Flamethrower which is blocked by Electivire's Protect attack. Electivire uses Thunder to try and hit Infernape, but he uses Dig to avoid the attack. Infernape lands a Super-Effective Dig attack on Electivire, but Electivire is still ready for battle. After yet another blocked Flamethrower, Infernape and Electivire start attacking with Mach Punch and ThunderPunch, respectively. They both each land an attack before another Flamethrower by Infernape is blocked by another Protect on Electivire's part. Ash instructs Infernape to use Mach Punch, but this Electivire is able to prevent the attack by wrapping its tail around Infernape's arm and uses Thunder while Infernape is connected to it, causing more damage then a normal Thunder attack. Infernape looks exhausted, and looks like it fainted, but Infernape activates Blaze. After some Blaze Effects begin to settle in, Infernape uses Flare Blitz to counter Electivire's ThunderPunch, and the two attacks collide. They both end up standing, not facing each other, and a flame envelops over Electivire, with Electivire still having enough energy to battle. The scene cuts to a white, showing the field with Ash, Paul, Electivire and Infernape, and all could be heard is a heart beat. The scene stays the same white, but now with Infernape and Electivire standing across from each other, with a referee in the middle. Electivire falls, leaving Infernape standing, thus making Ash the winner, leaving Paul with a sigh. Brock, Dawn, Piplup and Barry scream out in elation for Ash's victorious win over Paul. Team Rocket is elated Ash won, leaving Jessie happy and James in tears. Paul walks away relieved and the pairing results for the next battle come up, pairing Ash with the mysterious Takuto and his Darkrai. Reggie delivers the news to Paul's other Pokémon, who seem elated. Brock and Dawn are walking outside and run into Barry, who are subsequently run into by Cynthia. They are all looking for Ash, who is trying to find Paul walking away alone. Ash and Paul leave on good terms, and Ash gazes into the setting sun, looking forward to his battle with Takuto and his Darkrai.
