Are you serious?

Go play a game of Pokemon Stadium, get a lv 100 Pikachu and then let a lv 50 Garados use Hydro Pump or Surf on it, then see is it still standing afterward.

There was no lv 50 gyrados in this episode. My only point is Ash has had this thing for a long time, for it to be beat by amateur pokemon is just a forced plot point. Can't say that this is a bad idea though. 

there are theories that Ash's Pikachu gets weaker every time they reach a new region. Wouldn't be surprised by that.
