The Battle of the Champions

Pikachu tries to reason with Mewtwo, letting the super-Pokémon know that Ash is its friend, not master. Mewtwo, with a devilish smile, hurls Pikachu across the room into Ash’s open arms. Ash challenges Mewtwo to a Pokémon battle. Mewtwo accepts with a smile. Team Rocket watches as clones of a Charizard, Blastoise and Venusaur climb out of their holding tubes and make their way up to their master’s side.
