Go To

With everyone rested and Twilight's ankle healed, the group begins another day in Ghastly Gorge, but they run into a pack of Scrapow, only for their leader, Scar, to challenge Springer to a best of three contest.


  • A Day in the Limelight: Springer is the focus on this chapter, being the participant in Scar's challenge and learning the move Drain Punch.
  • Double Knockout: The final battle between Springer and Scar ends in a draw with both of them collapsing at the same time.
  • Graceful Loser: The Scrapow usually fight spars with each other and the one who loses to Scar gracefully accepts his defeat before the two drink water together.
  • Meaningful Name: The Scrapow's leader, Scar, has a scar over his left eye.
  • New Powers as the Plot Demands: In the middle of his final fight with Scar, Springer suddenly learns the move Drain Punch, shifting the tide of the battle.
  • Worthy Opponent: When the contest ends in a draw between Springer and Scar fist bump each other, signifying mutual respect between them.
