Satoshi travels to the Sinnoh region to challenge Denji in the World Coronation Series. The battle begins with Satoshi’s Lucario against Denji’s Rentorar, which uses Electric Terrain. Satoshi switches to Gangar, who is paralyzed by Fan Rotom’s Thunder Wave and defeated by Hex. Pikachu enters but struggles against Elekible due to its Motor Drive ability. After Lucario is also paralyzed, it defeats Fan Rotom with Reversal. A clash between Lucario and Rentorar results in both fainting. Satoshi ultimately sends Pikachu back to defeat Elekible using 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt. Following the victory, Satoshi’s rank increases to 64. Denji compliments Satoshi and reveals that Shirona has reached the Master Class.
