"Hawlucha I choose you!" Said Ash throwing the pokeball sending out the fighting and flying type Pokémon. Hawlucha struck a pose as usual for the flying type pokemon. Then he faced his two opponents alongside Feraligatr.

Ash called out the first move. "Hawlucha use Steel wing on Dragonite and Feraligatr use Brick break on Excadrill." Commanded Ash and his Pokémon followed his commands. Hawlucha flew at Dragonite with his right wing glowing while Feraligatr ran at Excadrill with his hand glowing ready to chop the enemy steel type.

"Dragonite counter Hawlucha with Hurricane and Excadrill fight back with Crush claw!" Ordered Iris. Her Pokémon followed their orders. Excadrill uppercutted at Feraligatr locking the two into another stalemate while Dragonite unleashed a Hurricane at Hawlucha. The fighting type had to pull away to avoid taking major damage but that caused his attack to fail as well. Just then, Feraligatr managed to over power Excadrill knocking the stell type into the ground with a brutal chop. Ash decided to switch targets.

"Hawlucha finish Excadrill of with a High jump kick and Feraligatr use Rock slide!" Shouted Ash. Hawlucha went flying at Excadrill with a glowing leg. Meanwhile Feralgatr unleashed rocks above his opponents dropping them causing the pokemon to have to worry about an attack from above. Iris knew Dragonite had to deal with the rocks.

"Dragonite destroy the rocks with Flamethrower to destroy the rocks and Excadrill counter Hawlucha's attack with Focus blast!" Instructed the Opelucid gym leader. Dragonite shot fire from his mouth destroying the rocks above their heads while Excadrill fired the blue fighting typed energy ball at the incoming Hawlucha.

"Use the spin dodge!" Said Ash. Hawlucha spun in the air and managed to avoid the attack suddenly Hawlucha was above and behind Excadrill. Hawlucha slammed his foot into the back of Excadrill's head causing the ground type to hit the floor face first. Excadrill groaned in pain as his eyes were replaced by spirals signifying that he had fainted.

"Excadrill is unable to battle!" Announced the referee waving his flags. With a sigh Iris recalled the steel and ground typed drill moole back to it's pokeball. Then she reached for the the final red and white sphere on her waist.

"Haxorus I choose you!" Said Iris as she sent out the large dragon typed Pokémon. Suddenly the field started to change. Ash then remembered that with Excadrill's fainting that meant three pokemon were out of the battle so it was time for the field to change. When the field came up at first it looked normal then some sort of reverse light came from the center of the field. Inside the reverse light everything just seemed to disappear into the black. Thankfully, Ash could still see his opponents.

Ash looked at the Pokémon. He had to admit that he was impressed by how much Haxorus had grown. When he first met Haxorus he was just a little Axew who could only use scratch and a dragon rage that never worked. He was standing proud and tall facing Ash alongside Dragonite. Suddenly, it looked as though Haxorus became stronger right in front of him.

"What the?" Asked Ash in confusion.

"Haxorus's ability is rivalry as long as he faces pokemon of the same gender his attacks get a boost." Explained Iris. Ash nodded understanding what she meant.

"Hawlucha use X-Scissor on Dragonite and Feraligatr use Dragon claw on Haxorus!" Ordered Ash. Hawlucha crossed his arms over his face making an X and his arms started glowing a bright yellowish-green. Hawlucha ran forward towards Dragonite ready to attack his opponent. Meanwhile Feraligatr went after Haxorus with bright glowing claws. Iris was ready to retaliate.
