* CrazyPrepared: Despite likely never having actually battled a Pikachu before, Burgh already has a way to counter Pikachu's speed. Knowing that a Pokémon with Pikachu's body type relies on its tail for balance, Burgh has Leavanny use String Shot to get its tail stuck to its body, throwing it off. Fortunately, Ash figures out a way to get Pikachu to break free.
