English Official Summary

As the Gym battle between Ash and Lenora is about to get under way, Ash observes that Lenora keeps a keen eye on all her potential challengers. She quickly judges Ash to be a no-nonsense Trainer, and they launch into a fierce two-on-two battle—it’s Lenora’s Watchog and Lillipup versus Ash’s Tepig and Oshawott. Right off the bat, Lenora’s Lillipup catches Ash off guard by using Roar, which forces him to switch Tepig out of the battle and send out Oshawott. Lenora decides to switch, too, bringing in her Watchog and immediately using Mean Look—which keeps Oshawott from switching out again! Watchog proves to be a fierce opponent, and Oshawott is quickly defeated. When Ash sends out Tepig, Lenora switches back to Lillipup, and its Take Down attack ends the battle quickly. Tepig is defeated, and Lenora wins! Upset by his defeat, Ash vows to train hard and challenge the Nacrene Gym again, and Nurse Joy recommends that Ash put in some time at the Pokémon Battle Club. Don George says he is happy to help out, and Ash prepares to do some serious special training to prepare for his rematch against Lenora!

Moustillon succède à Gruikui, puis Gruikui est à nouveau appelé après la défaite de Moustillon. Mais l’attaque Bélier de Ponchiot s’avère trop puissante pour Gruikui, et Aloé remporte la victoire.

German Official Summary

Der Kampf zwischen Ash und Aloe in der Arena von Septerna City steht unmittelbar bevor. Ash stellt fest, dass Aloe all ihre Herausforderer vom ersten Moment an unter die Lupe nimmt. Und mit Ash macht sie da keine Ausnahme. Sie hält unseren Helden für einen Trainer, der kein Blatt vor den Mund nimmt. Der Zwei-gegen-Zwei-Kampf beginnt. Aloe setzt Yorkleff und Kukmarda ein, Ash Floink und Ottaro. Aber schon gleich zu Beginn erwischt sie Ash vollkommen unvorbereitet mit der Attacke Brüller. Ash ist gezwungen, Ottaro gegen Floink einzutauschen. Doch dann setzt sie die Attacke Horrorblick ein, die Ottaro zwingt, im Kampf zu bleiben! Nach Ottaros Niederlage tritt Floink an. Aber Yorkleffs Bodycheck ist zu stark für Floink. Aloe gewinnt den Kampf. Ash fasst den Entschluss, hart zu trainieren und die Leiterin der Arena von Septerna City noch einmal herauszufordern. Schwester Joy empfiehlt ihm, den Pokémon-Kampfklub aufzusuchen und Don George um Hilfe zu bitten. Don George hilft gern. Und Ash bereitet sich auf ein hartes Spezialtraining vor, um dann noch einmal gegen Aloe anzutreten!

Nella Palestra di Zefiropoli, la lotta in Palestra tra Ash e Aloé sta per iniziare, e Ash scopre che Aloé tiene d'occhio tutti i suoi sfidanti fin dal primo istante, e lui non fa eccezione! Dopo aver stabilito che il nostro eroe è un Allenatore Diretto, che non si perde in chiacchiere, inizia una Lotta Due Contro Due, che vede il Watchog e il Lillipup di Aloé contro il Tepig e l'Oshawott di Ash. Aloé prende subito Ash alla sprovvista con Boato, costringendolo a cambiare Pokemon, per poi immediatamente usare Malosguardo per costringere l'Oshawott di Ash a rimanere in campo! Tepig, sostituito da Oshawott, torna in campo dopo la sconfitta di quest'ultimo. Il riduttore di Lillipup, però, si dimostra troppo potente per Tepig, e Aloé vince. Ash promette di allenarsi duramente per sfidare di nuovo la Palestra di Zefiropoli, e l'Infermiera Joy gli suggerisce di andare al Club di Lotta Pokemon e chiedere aiuto a Don George. Don accetta con piacere, perciò lasciamo i nostri eroi proprio mentre Ash si prepara a un allenamento speciale al Club di Lotta Pokemon, con l'obiettivo di avere presto la rivincita contro Aloé!

Finnish Official Summary

Kun Nacrenen saliottelu Ashin ja Lenoran välillä on alkamassa, Ash saa heti huomata, että Lenora tutkii tarkkaan kaikkia haastajiaan aivan alusta lähtien, eikä Ash ole poikkeus! Lenora arvioi Ashin olevan kouluttaja, joka on suoraviivainen ja tosissaan. Sitten he ryhtyvätkin kaksi-vastaan-kaksi-otteluun, jossa Lenoran Watchog ja Lillipup saavat vastaansa Ashin Tepigin ja Oshawottin. Mutta Lenora yllättää Ashin heti alkajaisiksi liikkeellä nimeltä Roar, joka pakottaa Ashin vaihtamaan Pokémoninsa keskenään, ja jatkaa vielä tekemällä Mean Lookin, joka pakottaa Ashin Oshawottin myös pysymään ottelussa! Oshawottin kaaduttua Tepig kutsutaan jälleen areenalle, mutta Lillipupin Take Down osoittautuu liian kovaksi Tepigille, ja niin Lenora voittaa. Kun Ash vannoo treenaavansa kovasti ja haastavansa Nacrenen salin uudestaan, hoitaja Joy suosittelee, että hän menisi Pokémon-ottelukerhoon pyytämään apua Don Georgelta. Don suostuu mieluusti auttamaan ja Ash alkaa valmistautua Pokémon-ottelukerhon rankkaan erikoiskoulutukseen ennen uusintaotteluaan Lenoraa vastaan!

Scene Cut

A line was skipping for Iris in the English dub that was originally in the Japanese original.

Iris: What's this place?
(アイリス): ここは?
03:23

Script Error

Ash in the English dub isn't certain what's down the staircase he just revealed. Satoshi on the other hand had a good idea and Aloe confirms his suspicions that the battlefield is in the basement.

Character English Translation Japanese
Ash Wh-What's down there? This is... これって。
Lenora Ash! It's the battlefield, of course! That's right, the battlefield is in this basement. そう この地下がバトルフィールドさ。

05:14

Paint Edit

In the Japanese original, Aloe puts on and adjusts her apron. In the English dub she doesn't put on her apron and her legs and hips look quite odd with the edited animation.
12:35

Script Error

Lenora's reaction is a bit out of character compared to Aloe in the Japanese original especially the way the English dub's voice actor angrily says the line.

Lenora: What's going on?!
Aloe: My!?
(アロエ): なんと!?
12:45

Script Error

Satoshi doesn't initially complement in the Japanese original like Ash does as the English dub removes Satoshi's observation that the attack strategy was effective.

Ash: Way to go!
Satoshi: It was effective.
(サトシ): 効いてるぞ。 
14:34

Script Error

Satoshi says he wanted to make his opponent flinch (hirumasete ひるませて) with Water Gun. In the video games, the move does not cause the opponent to flinch. This *could* be an error and they were actually referring to the status ailment Flinch (ひるませる), but it is also possible that its the more normal, mundane meaning of "hirumu" since its used quite frequently outside of the Pokémon franchise as well. It does make it a bit confusing for viewers nonetheless.

Ash: I was planning on surprising them by using Water Gun and then finishing it up with Razor Shell, but my close-range strategy didn't work!
Satoshi: I wanted to make it flinch with Water Gun and then finish it off with Shell Blade...
(サトシ): 水鉄砲でひるませてシェルブレードで一気に決めるはずだったのに。
17:24

Script Error

Ash in the English Dub doesn't mention the fact that his Pokémon look frustrated (悔しい).

Ash: That's not easy, I know!
Satoshi: You guys must be frustrated too.
(サトシ): お前たちも悔しいんだな!
19:39

Script Error

Similar to how Kidachi calls his wife Mama throughout the episode, Don George refers to Aloe as 'Mother Aloe'. The 'Mother' term refers to how Aloe is a figurehead in Shippo City, just like a mother is in a family. In the English dub, Don George just calls her Lenora.
Don George English dub: I understand. So you were roundly defeated by all of Lenora's tricks,
Don George Japanese Translation: I see. So you've been deceived by Mother Aloe.
(ドン・ジョージ): なるほど。 アロエのおっかあにしてやられたってわけだ。

This gym battle was one of my favorites. I loved how it focused on strategy instead of power, and how Ash lost but not in a ridiculous way like with Shootie. It seemed that Ash was really focused from the time he entered the library in the museum since he didn't really want to read the book he was asked to. I thought that a veteran battler like him would be more attentive.
I think it was good that Ash did not use Pikachu since it gives him a chance to make his newer Pokémon stronger. He seemed really motivated after his loss to do better. I think the Roar and Mean Look combination was especially potent since Ash only had two Pokémon. The animation of Mean Look looked really cool.

I think this episode has one of the most horribly edited scenes in the entire series. Lenora's hips and legs look terrible and they shouldn't have even bothered. The edit sticks out like a sore thumb.
