Pikachu and Jibanyan alone can be a perfect fight than having their tamers with them, but eventually, I think they should be in for few reasons...

For Pikachu's case...just like how Wiz and Boomstick explained in previous battles like Pikachu VS Blanka and Pokemon VS Digimon, Pikachu cannot fight without Ash's orders. However, Pikachu have many movesets from Electric types such as Thunderbolt and Volt Tackle, and other non-electric types such as Agility and Iron Tail. He may not be powerful physically, but can move fast.

For Jibanyan's case...he can fight on his own will, but mainly lazy and selfish as he can easily ignore Nate's favor. His only move in battle is his Soultimate Attack: Paws of Fury, but other than that, its only his claws. However, as being a Fire type Yo-kai, he can use Fire attacks, but if his status will be focused mainly on the anime side, then I guess this part will be ignored, which I doubt it. He can be powerful physically, but weak on durability and speed. Jibanyan may be a ghost, but that doesn't mean he's unkillable, which can possibly adjusted in Death Battle for some purposes.
