All right! We've gotten back into the fighting! Rara kisses Hibiscus, which does less damage thanks to the impact being softened by the Bewear's fluffy coat. Then, she flings Hibiscus off to the side with a burst of mind power! Hibiscus, who has been taking these attacks and storing the energy, retaliates by using the power right back on her attacker, singling out the real target from the three clones and nearly knocking her out, though she faints with the effort! And that's GT's first loss of the match!

I should have remembered Bide. That’s a strategy that’s gaining popularity lately. Oh well.

Shino pelts Balsam with seeds once again! This looks familiar. Balsam hangs on with barely any HP before sealing off the move like last time and then rushing at Shino with a blisteringly fast strike! Balsam faints of exhaustion, but it's not looking good for Shino, who'll likely have to face down a ghost next round without Bullet Seed to help him. We may be approaching the end of this match, folks!

After Sequoia strikes Shino while she's underground, confusing her. Fair enough. I'd be confused too. After watching her hurt herself, and then hitting her again, Sequoia finally takes Shino down. And that means...
