But has he seen Pikachu use Electro Ball though? I know he's seen, and battled, Pikachu in action several times...but I only recall Ash using every other move but Electro Ball in Shota's presence.I'm pretty sure Sawyer told Clawitzer to use one of its moves directly after it grabbed Pikachu's tail, Ash was simply faster.
Though Sawyer still made a mistake, he should have realized that grabbing the tail was a bad idea in the first place since Pikachu generates Electro Ball from his tail.
Given his expression, it doesn't seem likely. And this is the guy who has supposedly studied Ash's Kalos team closely. Either way, if it wasn't Electro Ball then Ash could have just directed a Thunderbolt. But like you said, Shota was going to follow-up...Ash just beat him to it.
