Cheren's Unfezant uses Feather Dance to cover Leo's Deino in feathers, lowering its Attack. Despite this, Leo has Deino use Bite on Unfezant, but the attack fails to do significant damage due to Feather Dance's effect. Unfezant immediately flies into the air and crashes down on Deino beak-first with a Sky Attack. The announcer proclaims Cheren as the winner and states he will advance on to the next round.
