However, smart little Lim had correctly predicted this move and hence, instead of wasting the Pokèmon’s energy, she focused her Tyranitar’s attacks on her opponent’s other Pokèmon. This lead to the easy knocking it out of the other Pokèmon. She then’, ultimately finished Miranda-Radbord’s Rhyperior on the subsequent round, and sealed her victory.
