- TV-Y7
Ash and his friends stumble upon a restaurant along their journey where they are asked to participate in a Full Course Tag Battle. The rules of the battle are unique and the participants must choose a partner to team up with for a 6 vs 6 Pokemon battle. However, the twist here is that every pair of trainers must come up with a specific strategy and dish to represent each battle.
The teams are divided as follows: Ash and Paul, Brock and Holly, Dawn and Lyra, and finally Kenny and Barry. Each team is then given a specific course to represent, ranging from appetizers to desserts. Ash and Paul, who have a rocky relationship, start off as defensive rather than offensively. However, they soon learn to put their differences aside and work as a team to win the first course.
As the battles continue, the teams showcase their unique strategies and dishes. Brock and Holly use a dish called "Super Saiyan Soup" and use a combination of psychic and electric moves, while Dawn and Lyra make a fruity dessert with their Pokemon using water and ice-type moves. Kenny and Barry also impress with a spicy and fiery dish that also incorporates fire-type moves.
As the final course battle commences, Ash and Paul must face off against Dawn and Lyra while also representing the dessert dish. Ash and Paul decide to go all out with their Pokemon, determined to work together and win. In a heated and intense battle, the two ultimately emerge victorious, showcasing their newfound teamwork and proving that even rivals can be great partners.
The episode concludes with the characters expressing their appreciation for each other's unique battle strategies and dishes. The restaurant owner thanks them for participating and everyone parts ways, heading towards their next adventure.
Overall, "A Full Course Tag Battle" is a fun and thrilling episode that highlights the unique strategies and partnership dynamics between the characters. With its food-themed battles and team-focused battles, it's a great addition to the Pokemon series and will leave fans craving for more.
