With his third round battle against Conway coming up, Ash does some last minute training with Brock, which helps Infernape learn a new move. The following day Ash and Conway arrive in the stadium for their battle. The battle begins and Ash quickly takes Conway by surprise by using different Pokémon than Conway thought he would use and by using some neat tricks. However, things take a turn for the worse when Conway calls out his Dusknoir and has it use Trick Room, causing Conway's Pokémon to be faster than Ash's. Will Ash be able to defeat Conway and progress in the tournament?
