Yup, because he needs to win more than just gym battles. He should win more outside of them to show improvement. Throw Iris some loses or something. If he loses here, but rematches in the same episode ultimately winning then fine.

But just a loss, and the obligatory "I need to get stronger"? No thanks.

How will the battle turn out? Hopefully a victory.

Oh, Satoshi, I thought you were past this, you know Pikachu's electric attacks aren't going to work against a part ground type just because he's part water, too >___>

It'll be nice to see some (assuming?) higher leveled third evo's battling, especially Pendra :D

Waruvile though. Ugh. I was kind of glad he was gone...hopefully he'll be a formidable battler?

And here is our WaruBoy.

Seems like Ash seperates from Pikachu as predicted, but Ash will get Krokorok at this episode and I see Harley being mentioned this episode revealing that his Cacturne used to be a Cacnea according to a photo seen in Nick's house.

I can't read japanese, but Harley? Really?

Wat. Harley is not mentioned one single time in that summary. I call troll (or bad eyesight).

Other scans say that Nick is challenged to a battle by his friend even though he doesn't own any Pokémon yet. Since it's a double battle, he needs two Pokémon. So yeah, I guess Ash lends Pikachu to him.

Meh, I was kinda hoping Ash would battle this guy with the Seismitoad & Pendoora, not some other kid using his Pokemon to battle. Hopefully Ash takes over or something. I just hope this Nick kid is interesting enough for me to care using Ash's Pokemon. Meh, for now.

Satoshi lets someone borrow Pikachu? Ugh ~_~ I hope this Nick kid is interesting and comes up with some nice strategies because all the times Satoshi has lended people his Pokemon have just turned. out. so. well.

I'm getting tired of Pikachu's move set, Christ Eleki Ball is boring basically recolor of Energy Ball which was a recolor of Zap Cannon which was a recolor of Shadow Ball.

I hope Nick decides to steal Pikachu and run off.

Hopefully the battle between Pikachu and Krokorok is at the beginning of the episode

Well he'd certainly be living up to his name if he did!

But even though Ash is not battling here, it still does not explain why the Sunglasses Krokorok decides to battle alongside Pikachu. We should assume that the SG Krokorok has not been caught by any trainer yet as of this episode. Does the SG Krokorok volunteer to battle with Pikachu while hearing about Nick's situation?

This episode feels to be two separate plotlines that happen to be loosely connected with one another.

Yes apparently he appears sees that and wants to fight alongside Pikachu.
