Daisy: Charmeleon use Dragon Dance. Pikachu use Thunderbolt.
Gary: Wartortle Protect. Kadabra Teleport to Charmeleon.

Gary: Wartortle Dragon Pulse.
Daisy: Pikachu Electric Terrain.
Pikachu at that time, was enveloped by many intertwined electric currents. Then all this electricity was realised on the ground, creating a field full of static electricity. Wartortle on the other hand launched a Dragon Pulse towards Pikachu. Pikachu jumped like a top level goalkeeper, towards its left side dodging the Dragon Pulse.
Daisy: Pikachu Quick Attack on Wartortle.
Daisy snapped her finger while giving her order to Pikachu.
Gary: Kadabra Teleport then Confusion. Wartortle Protect.
Pikachu dashed towards Wartortle. Then it was diflected upwards because of the green protective dome enveloping Wartortle. Kadabra then appeared at the left side of Pikachu and prepared to launch its Confusion Move on it.
Gary: What!!!!!!!!!!
Gary was shocked to see a huge ball of electricity on Pikachu's tail. The electricity covering the field at that time, also started to rise. Then the Electro Ball grew bigger. Pikachu then spined midair and launched its Electro Ball Move scoring a direct hit on Wartortle. Kadabra's Confusion hit Pikachu and knocked it on the ground in response.
Gary: Wartortle Aqua Jet.
Wartortle immediately after hearing Gary's order was enveloped in water. The water enveloping Wartortle this time was by 50% bigger than before because of its Torrent Ability. Then Wartortle like a torpedo smashed itself into Pikachu.
Wartortle: Warttt!!!!!
Wartortle was suddenly enveloped in some electric arcs thanks to the Static Ability of Pikachu. On the other hand Pikachu couldn't take any more damage and fainted.

The Commentator screamed the result of the match, at the top of his lungs. The crowd started to chear even louder than before, hyped up by the spirit of the commentator.
Leaf immediately disappeared from the stands, moving towards the waiting room to meet Daisy. After such a 2 to 0 defeat, she wanted to console her best friend.
" I see. Gary won after all. Luckily thanks to the sunden comeback of Pikachu, Gary was forced to reveal even more of his battling style."
On the opposite stands, Wes moved towards his waiting room since he was on the next match. He also started to read about the Pokemon used by his opponent to determine which two of his team members he would use next.
On the waiting room of Daisy. Daisy and Leaf could be seen together.
Leaf: Its ok Daisy you had fought with everything you could. You almost pulled a comeback with Pikachu.
Daisy: Don't worry Leaf. I'm fine. That result only means that i need to train even harder to reach my brothers level. Also from what i have seen, he has a very high chance to win this whole thing.
Daisy calmed down Leaf. Of course she was upset at her defeat, but she was ready to train harder, than ever before to reach her brothers level.
Leaf: That's true. Though there is that Aster kid from Vermilion City. He has a very impressive Persian and Fearow. Though i believe Gary can beat him.
Daisy: Don't forget Wes. I believe that freak is holding back some of his strength. He didn't use even one time his first Pokemon. Of course theres also you.
Leaf: You are right.
