"Looks like the twerp's in danger, meow!"
"Indeed. We admit Pikachu is strong, but things don't look good for him now."
James nodded slightly as well, concern for Ash and Pikachu showing in his eyes.
"Enough nonsense!"
Seeing Ash at a disadvantage and seemingly about to lose the match, Jessie inexplicably became a little agitated.
"Twerp, hang in there!"
"Hang in there, meow!"
After Jessie shouted, Meowth and James came to their senses and joined her in loudly cheering for Ash.
Pikachu took the field against Snorlax.
Even Ash was feeling somewhat less confident now.
Could his Pikachu really defeat Snorlax?
Ash closed his eyes. If he wanted to defeat Xiao Ze, he could no longer fight the way he had before!

Ash abruptly opened his eyes and spoke to Pikachu, who had already entered the field.
"Pika!"

In the lounge, Iris, who had also traveled with Ash for a time, was equally surprised.
"Pikachu can actually use Nasty Plot?"
Iris's astonishment
