This week, the match between Roark and Paul continues!

The major change here was re-orienting the battle so it is seen from the group's perspective. This is why you don't see what is going on in the battle itself unless one of the group sees it, or it is important you see what Roark or Paul sees.

I did speed up the battle by not having Paul welcome back Surge at the end. Instead, Crystal, Roark's Cranidos faints from exhaustion.

I couldn't resist Ash making a DBZ joke when Goku's Blaze kicked in, in honor of his namesake. Roark's Pokemon have jewel and metal themed names.

This upcoming battle is one of the few times we see what the evil team is doing during the match--what Mars and Jupiter are doing is setup for later in the arc.

Next time, Ash's first attempt against Roark doesn't go so well!
