During breakfast the following morning, Michael and those that were still in the Victory Road challenge commented on the current situation.

Michael - "Well guys. There's only seven of us left in me, Kiara, Calli, Irys, Mikey, John, and Ina."

Mikey - "Yeah. And you and Kiara are the only ones of us fighting each other in this round. with Calli facing the winner if she wins too."

Kiara held out her hand.

Kiara - "May the better trainer win Michael."

Michael grabbed her hand and shook it.

Michael - "Same to you my dear."

Soon everyone had breakfast. Then they made their way to the stadium since Michael and Kiara's battle was the first of the day.

Tim - "This will be a 6-on-6 Knockout Stage battle between Kiara Takanashi of Hoenn's Lavaridge Town and Michael Masi of Pokémon Island. The battle will continue all Pokémon on one side are unable to continue. Are both trainers ready?"

Both trainers activated their battle disk.
