"Iron Defense!"
With Gary's order, a burst of white light flashed across Shiny Metagross. With the enhancement of the Iron Defense move, Shiny Metagross's defense was greatly improved.
"Next is Gyro Ball!"
Gary took advantage of Ash's daze to continue commanding Shiny Metagross to attack.
After receiving Gary's order, Shiny Metagross quickly turned into a gyro ball and rushed towards Pikachu.
"No, Pikachu, use Quick Attack to avoid it!"
Ash also heard Gary's attack order, so he was a little caught off guard and shouted to Pikachu in panic.
The protagonist's luck was still a little exaggerated. Ash asked Pikachu to use his signature move to avoid it, and Pikachu also used Quick Attack at the critical moment to avoid the attack.
"Too despicable, Ash, you actually took advantage of someone's misfortune!"
After seeing Pikachu dodge, Ash first breathed a sigh of relief, and then glared at Gary on the opposite side, expressing his dissatisfaction.
"Who told you to be distracted during the battle? This is just a lesson for you."
Facing Ash's glare, Gary didn't take it to heart, but spread his hands, looking indifferent.
"Damn guy!"
Looking at Gary with an expressionless face, Ash also gritted his teeth secretly.
"Pikachu, we must teach Gary a lesson."
After being mocked by Gary, Ash immediately became angry, so he commanded Pikachu to attack.
"Pikachu, use Quick Attack, rush over!"
Under Ash's command, Pikachu immediately supported himself on all fours, then took small steps quickly and ran, like a white arc of electricity, rushing towards Gary's Shiny Metagross.
"Metagross, Iron Defense again!"
Shiny Metagross, before Ash's Pikachu attacked, once again used the Iron Defense move to strengthen its defense.
"Good opportunity, Pikachu, use Iron Tail!"
After Ash saw that Pikachu had approached Shiny Metagross, he did not stand there in a daze, but took the opportunity to shout directly at it.
After receiving Ash's order, Pikachu immediately jumped up, then turned 360 degrees in the air, used the tail that shone with metallic luster, and whipped in the direction of Shiny Metagross.
"Block it!"
Faced with this attack, Gary did not make any defensive or evasive moves, but silently uttered these three words.
"What!"
Although Ash did not understand what Gary meant at first, the next scene surprised Ash.
After being hit by Pikachu's Iron Tail, Gary's Shiny Metagross just took a step back slightly, and it did not suffer any loss.
"How is this possible?"
Ash looked at the scene in disbelief.
"Don't you know? The Iron Defense move can increase the defense of the Pokémon. My Metagross has been blessed by Iron Defense twice, and its defense has been improved by more than one level!"
Gary saw Ash's surprised expression, and as a friend and a part-time rival, he also explained it kindly.
"So that's how it is!"
After listening to Gary's explanation, Ash showed an expression of "I see," but it's unclear if he really understood it.
Anyway, Gary didn't want to care about this, after all, his next wave of offensive had also begun.
"Metagross, Meteor Mash!"
One of the arms of Shiny Metagross immediately wrapped around some milky white energy, and then turned into a fist, hitting Pikachu heavily.
Pikachu, who was unable to dodge for a while, was immediately smashed away.
"Okay, let's seize the opportunity and use Flash Cannon!"
With Gary's big hand wave, a burst of energy suddenly gathered on the body of Shiny Metagross, and then the energy turned into a beam of light and rushed to the place where Pikachu was.
"No, Pikachu, get out of the way!"
Although Ash was shouting, Pikachu, who had not yet stood up, could not dodge in time.
The final result was not unexpected. After being hit by Shiny Metagross's Flash Cannon, Pikachu completely fainted on the ground and lost his ability to fight.
"Pikachu lost his ability to fight, Metagross won!"
After seeing this scene, Tracey immediately announced.
"Pikachu, come back and rest!"
Although Ash was very worried about Pikachu, the battle had to continue, so after handing it over to Professor Oak who was watching the battle, he continued to return to the battlefield.
"It's up to you next, Snorlax!"
Faced with the situation of losing a Pokémon first, Ash thought for a while, then took out another Poké Ball and threw it out. Soon, a sturdy Snorlax appeared opposite Metagross.
"Snorlax, we have to avenge Pikachu!"
As soon as Snorlax appeared, Ash began to cheer him up.
"Snorlax!"
Snorlax also shouted deeply after hearing it, indicating that he would take care of it.

"Snorlax?"
After reading the information about Ash's Snorlax, Gary also secretly increased his attention. After all, he knew the strength of Ash's Snorlax, and he would not allow himself to make any more mistakes.
"Snorlax, use Hammer Arm!"
In the second round, Ash still took the initiative to attack.
As soon as Ash finished speaking, Snorlax ran towards Shiny Metagross while waving his fist wrapped in white light.
Gary looked at the ground shaking because of Snorlax's running, and also understood the strength of its attack this time, so he was not prepared to resist it head-on, so he gave an order.
"Metagross, use Agility!"
Shiny Metagross, which used Agility, quickly left the original place before Snorlax's attack arrived and avoided its Hammer Arm.
After Snorlax's attack missed, Shiny Metagross also appeared behind Snorlax.
"Bullet Punch!"
At the moment when Shiny Metagross appeared, Gary's next order also came.
Shiny Metagross, who used Bullet Punch, increased the speed of his punches several times, and his fists, as fast as bullets, kept hitting Snorlax.
The fists, as fast as the wind and as fast as thunder, kept hitting Snorlax, making it difficult for it to resist for a while.
"Next is Hammer Arm!"
In the last punch, Shiny Metagross also obeyed Gary's instructions and used Hammer Arm with the greatest power, forcing Snorlax back several steps.
"Snorlax!"
Seeing this, Ash could only shout out with concern.
