At the [[Mossdeep Gym]], {{Ash}} is preparing to face [[Tate and Liza]], the twin [[Gym Leader]]s. {{an|Rachel}} explains the rules of the [[Double Battle]] and gives a detailed explanation of the special field they're using. The field has mock-ups of all the planets orbiting the sun, creating obstacles that wouldn't be there ordinarily. Tate and Liza start by choosing {{TP|Tate|Solrock}} and {{TP|Liza|Lunatone}}, respectively. {{Ash}} instantly chooses {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Swellow}} for its aerial abilities. Outside, {{TRT}} plots to steal Lunatone and Solrock. After {{MTR}}’s [[boss fantasy]] concludes, he and [[Jessie]] happily rush off to the Gym to begin, but [[James]] stops them because he is concerned that {{t|Psychic}} types will be difficult to capture. Meowth assures him that he bought the perfect mecha for the heist from an online auction.

Back in the Gym, the battle begins. Solrock uses {{m|Tackle}} on Pikachu, hitting the Mouse Pokémon. Lunatone uses Tackle as well, striking Swellow. Ash then orders Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}} on Solrock and tells Swellow to use {{m|Peck}} on Lunatone. As Pikachu charges into his attack, Solrock floats out of the way, causing Pikachu to crash into one of the floating planets. The same thing happens with Swellow after Lunatone moves aside. Pikachu falls down, and soon after Swellow lands on him. Things aren't looking too good for Ash at this point.

Tate and Liza are now ready for their next attacks. Solrock uses {{m|Solar Beam}} while Lunatone is told to use {{m|Ice Beam}}, however, the two attacks collide and cancel each other out. The failed attacks spark an argument between the twins, stopping them from battling. Ash sees this as his chance, so he orders Swellow to use {{m|Aerial Ace}} on Lunatone, and it hits. Pikachu is also ordered to attack, and he lashes Solrock with an {{m|Iron Tail}}. Tate and Liza notice that their Pokémon are getting beaten while they quarrel, so they both rejoin the match and order their Pokémon to use Tackle attacks on Pikachu. Pikachu is about to be sandwiched by the two Psychic Pokémon, but Swellow swoops in and rescues. Consequently, Lunatone and Solrock crash into each other, which causes Tate and Liza to begin arguing again.

As the twin Gym Leaders blame each other for their constant blunders, the ground starts to rumble as Team Rocket makes an unannounced appearance. The Gym’s roof caves in even more as a [[Team Rocket's mechas|giant robot]] appears, piloted by Meowth. Liza complains about the battlefield being ruined, so Tate and Liza order their Pokémon to attack. The Team Rocket mecha fires two round cages that capture Lunatone and Solrock. The two Pokémon try to free themselves using {{m|Psychic}}, but Meowth laughs as he reveals the cages are made of {{wp|unobtainium}} and reflect the attacks. Team Rocket reels in their catches and rush off to their waiting Meowth balloon while Ash and the others give chase. Ash orders Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but his attack fails to make the distance. So, Ash has Pikachu jump on Swellow and has them pursue Team Rocket in the air. Jessie and James look worried, but Meowth tells them not to worry as he presses a button, causing the robot to fire yellow globs at the two Pokémon. Swellow presses through as Pikachu uses Thunderbolt on the mecha, causing it to release the two stolen Pokémon. Meowth apologizes to his teammates for only getting the economy package as Solrock and Lunatone crushes the mecha with Psychic. The mecha then explodes on Team Rocket to blast them off for good.

Liza admits that Ash’s match cannot go on because the Gym field was destroyed. Though Rachel suggests that they just have the battle outside, on the cliff that Team Rocket took off from, and everyone agrees that this is a good idea. So Rachel announces the continuation of the Gym battle. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt on Solrock, but Lunatone slides in front and guards it with {{m|Light Screen}}. The Thunderbolt gets reflected back at Pikachu, smashing him into a rocky cliff. Swellow tries to attack Lunatone with Aerial Ace, but Solrock uses {{m|Sandstorm}} to stop it. {{an|Brock}} admits that the twins are working in sync since that battle with Team Rocket. Ash also realizes this and orders his own combination, so Pikachu leaps onto Swellow's back. The now-airborne Pikachu uses Thunderbolt on Solrock, but Lunatone again intervenes and reflects the attack right back at him. However, this time both Pikachu and Swellow are hit. Tate and Liza are surprised to see that Swellow doesn't seem to be affected, considering that it's a {{type|Flying}}.

Swellow is then ordered to use {{m|Double Team}}, creating copies that surround Solrock and Lunatone. The two Psychic-type Pokémon fly back to back as Tate and Liza gauge the situation and order a Solar and Ice Beam combination to sweep through the duplicates. Soon they're all disposed of, though the twins are left confused about the whereabouts of the real Swellow and Pikachu. Suddenly, they see the two Pokémon flying from above, ready to strike. Solrock and Lunatone are ordered to quickly whip up another Solar Beam and Ice Beam combination, hitting Ash's Pokémon. The Pokémon start plummeting toward the ground, but Swellow is able to recover quickly enough and swoops upwards in the nick of time.

Ash weighs up his options, and after noticing the clouds forming overhead, he suddenly has an idea. He tells Pikachu to use {{m|Thunder}} on the clouds, confusing the Gym Leaders. Soon, the clouds spit back a streak of lightning, directly hitting Pikachu and Swellow. Ash’s duo emerges from the lightning strike supercharged and coated in golden armor. The now super-powered Swellow uses Quick Attack, so Solrock fires a Solar Beam attack on it. Swellow and Pikachu are hit, but they just ignore it and power on through. Lunatone tries to use Light Screen, but its attack is just as futile. Pikachu strikes Solrock down with an Iron Tail while Swellow uses Aerial Ace on Lunatone. Both super-powered attacks hit, and as the Pokémon’s golden power-ups fade, Rachel announces that Pikachu and Swellow have won the battle. Ash is thrilled, though receives an electric shock as hug his two Pokémon. Tate and Liza hand Ash the {{Badge|Mind}}, admitting they still have to work on their combinations.
