Unfortunately, Magmar melts the ice from around him. Team Rocket then fires the freeze blasts all over the place, covering the walls with ice. Ash, Misty, Brock, and Blaine rush down the stairs to see what's going on. Blaine tells Ash and his friends that all this ice on the hot rock could set off a chain reaction, causing the volcano to erupt. The whole room starts to crack apart, and Blaine explains that lava will flow through the rocks and the surge will cause an eruption.
Holes appear in the wall, and the chains supporting the platform snap.
Team Rocket is blasted through a hole by a jet of steam, and lava starts to burst through. Blaine tells Magmar to pile rocks into the crater to stop the flow, and Pikachu is about to help, but Blaine tells him that only Fire type Pok mon can withstand the heat of the lava. Ash sends out Charizard and tells him to help Magmar. Needless to say, he doesn't listen and falls asleep on a rock. Magmar continues to throw rocks into the lava, but it doesn't seem to be working.
