* StrongAsTheyNeedToBe: Paul brings Azumarill in to wash Roark's team away like any savvy player would; good thing Roark's Geodude has the writers behind it--it uses Hidden Power to both negate and attack ''through'' Azumarill's Hydro Pump, which knocks Azumarill down long enough for Geodude to get two free hits of Rollout in.

Same issues here as with the characters page: A Pokemon powering through a bad type matchup happens all the time in the anime, so even if it's breaking the games' rules, it's not breaking the anime's. Hand Wave and Strong As They Need To Be would only qualify if the show was being inconsistent with itself, which it isn't. One character ignoring Paul's rudeness doesn't make him a Karma Houdini, nor does it mean the writer agrees with his actions.

* {{Handwave}}: The battle between Paul's Azumarill and Roark's Geodude is decided entirely by the anime giving three free shots in a row to Geodude. Brock glosses over that with a theory that Roark's Geodude beat Paul's Azumarill because Roark trained it to beat Water-types.
* KarmaHoudini: Paul somehow gets away with badmouthing his own Pokemon in front of Roark. Roark doesn't react at all. In earlier episodes, Gym Leaders and other officials would scold Trainers who did this.
