"Dragonite counter with Thunder punch and Haxorus knock Feraligatr back with Iron tail!" Commanded Iris. Dragonite's fist strated crackling with electricity as he punched at Hawlucha's on coming X-Scissor attack.

The X-Scissor was destroyed and Hawlucha was knocked back by the force of the attack. The flying type landed on the ground with a groan. Meanwhile, Haxorus spun around just as Feraligatr was about to hit him, then with his tail turned into iron. The tail slammed into Feraligatr's chest knocking the alligator backwards causing him to land next to Hawlucha. Both of Ash's pokemon weakly got back to their feet.

"Hawlucha use Flying press on Haxorus and Feraligatr blast Dragonite with your strongest Hydro cannon!" Instructed Ash. Hawlucha flew up then after going into the air did a glowing downward assault towards Haxorus. Meanwhile Feraligatr fired of the incerddibly powerful water type move at Dragonite with all of the might the water type had left. The water roared across the field as it went towards Dragonite.

"Haxorus fight back with Shadow claw and Dragonite use Dragon rush to beat Feraligatr!" Shouted Iris. Haxorus created a giant shadow claw on his right hand and had it ready to swing at Hawlucha. Dragonite surrounded himself in a glowing blue energy and charged straight at the oncoming Hydro cannon. It looked like Hydro cannon would collide with Dragon rush, but then something else happenned.

Dragonite and his Dragon rush along with the Hydro cannon disappeared into the shadow area in the center of the field. Nothing happened for a moment then The Hydro cannon broke through the other side and had missed Dragonite, meanwhile Dragonite was charging at Feraligatr at max speed. To tired from using Hydro cannon Feraligatr could only stand there as he watched Dragonite charge at him.

Dragonite collided with Feraligatr sending the water type flying through the air, then he hit the ground with a loud thud, slowly Feraligatr got to his feet to face Dragonite. Then with a groan he fell over and fainted.

"Feraligatr is unable to battle." Announced the referee. During this, Hawlucha was getting close to Haxorus, thinking he knew when Hawlucha was going to hit him Haxorus swung a massive claw at the fighting type.

Unfortunatly for him, his timing was off, Hawlucha did one of his trademark spins which caused his descent to slow down and because of that Haxorus missed and was hit by the Flying press. Hawlucha moved backwards and was standing near Ash again. After recalling Feraligatr, Ash reached for the final pokeball on his waist knowing that he had the perfect Pokémon to face Haxorus.

"Scrafty I choose you!" Said Ash sending out his dark and fighting type lizard pokemon. Scrafty and Haxorus stared at one and another in shock.

"Axew?" Asked Scrafty.

"Scraggy?" Asked Haxorus both pokemon refering to each other by the forms they were in when they last saw each other. Ash and Iris smiled looking at their Pokémon. Scrafty and Haxorus had been best friends and rivals for two years now.

The two Pokémon rushed up to each other embracing one and another in a comforting hug. Hawlucha and Dragonite grinned, looking at their younger companions. After their reunion hug, the two Pokémon returned to their trainers sides and with similar grins on their faces got into fighting stances. Dragonite and Hawlucha followed in suit getting into fighting stances of their own, ready to fight.

"Hawlucha use High jump kick on Haxorus and Scrafty use Headbutt on Dragonite!" Instructed Ash. Hawlucha lept at Haxorus with a glowing leg while Scrafty ran at Dragonite with his head down ready to headbutt Dragonite.

"Haxorus counter with Slash and Dragonite use Flamethrower!" Commanded Iris. Haxorus's face blades started to glow as he charged at Hawlucha.

Meanwhile, Dragonite fired a burst of flames at the incoming Scrafty. Scrafty was able to move quickly enough, so that not only was he able to avoid the fire, he was still able to headbutt Dragonite with his Headbutt. Dragonite rocked back from the impact of the fighting type's normal type move. Meanwhile, learning from Excadrill's mistake's, Haxorus side steps the high jump kick then slashes Hawlucha into the air. While Hawlucha was still in the air, Ash decided on his next course of action.

"Hawlucha use Flying press on Dragonite and Scrafty use your Focus blast on Haxorus!" Shouted Ash. Hawlucha went down towards Dragonite using his signature move while Scrafty fired the blue fighting typed move at Haxorus.

"Haxorus counter with Draco meteor and Dragonite fight back using Dragon rush!" Ordered Iris.

Haxorus fired the powerful dragon type move at the incoming Focus blast, the two moves collided creating an explosion. Meanwhile, Dragonite surrounded himelf in a glowing blue energy as he charged at the incoming Hawlucha at a blinding speed. Scrafty and Haxorus watched the two pokemon on their collision course, then they faced eachother waiting for their next orders for the battle.

Hawlucha and Dragonite collided with one and another creating a large explosion. When the dust subsided they saw the two Pokémon falling away from each other. Hawlucha looked at Scrafty seeing the determination in the eyes of the young fighting type.

Hawlucha smiled. "Scrafty."He said. Scrafty looked up at his fellow fighting type. "I'll leave this battle in your hands." Said Hawlucha, then he hit the ground and fainted.

Meanwhile Dragonite was also falling through the air, he turned to look at Haxorus. He saw the determination in the eyes of the young dragon Pokémon. Haxorus smirked.

"Haxorus." Said the flying type. Haxorus looked up at his draconic partner. "It's all up to you now kid." Said Dragonite, then he slammed into the ground, fainting.

"Hawlucha and Dragonite are unable to battle." Declared the referee waving his flags. Ash and Iris recalled their Pokémon then looked at the single Pokémon each of them had remaining on the field.

"Scrafty use Foul play!" Shouted Ash. Scrafty used his dark type move and went Haxorus.

"Haxorus use Slash to fight back!" Ordered Iris. The two Pokémon ran at each other with their attacks prepared to strike.

First Scrafty's Foul play hit Haxorus. Haxorus was knocked of balance for a second, but quickly regained his composure. He swung hit head at Scrafty knocking the fighting type backwards on impact. Scrafty crossed his arms over his face to reduce the damage and after getting hit he skidded across the ground on his feet, but didn't fall over. He looked up to face Haxorus.

"Scrafty use Focus blast!" Commanded Ash. Scrafty fired the fighting type sphere at his opponent.

"Haxorus destroy it with Shadow claw!" Instructed Iris. Haxorus created two large claws of shadows on his hands and slashed at the incoming fighting type move destroying it creating a large explosion. When the dust cleared, Haxorus stood unfazed by his rival's attack.

"Haxorus fire the Draco meteor!" Shouted Iris. Haxorus looked up then fired off the dragon type move it went into the air then while in the sky exploded sending a rain of Draco meteors straight at Scrafty.

"Scrafty go straight forward and use Headbutt on Haxorus!" Ordered Ash. Scrafty ran forward avoiding any and all of the down coming meteors. When he got close enough, he slammed his head into Haxorus, knocking him back. Ash and Iris decided it was time for the final move.

"Scrafty finish this up with High jump kick!" Instructed Ash.

"Haxorus finish this up with Irons tail!" Commanded Iris. Scrafty charged at Haxorus with his right leg glowing. Haxorus turned his tail into steel waiting for his opponent to strike. Scrafty lept forwards at Haxorus at an incredible speed. Haxorus spun around swinging his tail.

"Use the tail to get behind him!" Shouted Ash.
Scrafty stuck his non-glowing foot out as it met the Iron tail. Scrafty lept off the tail so that he was above Haxorus. The dragon type was only able to partially turn his head in time. Scrafty swung his glowing leg into the side of Haxorus's head knocking the dragon to the ground with a loud thud. Haxorus fainted before he hit the floor.
