Battle Three with Bea! Ash and Goh arrive at the Stow-on-Side Stadium, where Ash intends to have a third World Coronation Series battle against Bea. Ash and Goh notice Bea training with her Pokémon. Bea's full team is revealed to be Machamp, Hawlucha, Grapploct, Hitmontop, Pangora, and Falinks. After eating some snacks that Korrina had brought, Ash starts to develop a strategy for the battle that night, while Goh wishes him good luck for the battle. Before the battle begins, Ash has his Mega Glove equipped to Mega evolve his Lucario, while Bea has her Dynamax band to Dynamax her Machamp. Ash starts off with Pikachu, while Bea brings out her Grapploct. After Pikachu's Electroweb fails to contain Grapploct, Ash swaps Pikachu for Lucario. Bea switches Grapploct for Hawlucha, and later Machamp. When Lucario struggles against Machamp's Bullet Punch, Ash attempts to trigger Lucario's mega evolution. However, Lucario refuses to do so, and manages to shake off Machamp by bashing it with its head. Leon arrives and proclaims the deep bond between Ash and Lucario, mentioning that Lucario will mega evolve at the appropriate time. Ash and Bea return their focus to the battle and declare themselves to be the ones to battle Leon.
