Lavana vs Oleana
Voting ended onApr 12, 2025
In a tournament where the men outnumber the women over 3-to-1, this ends up being our last battle this Round where 2 women go head to head!
A vision in pink, Lavana is the final member of the Sinis Trio to show up in this tournament! Fittingly for her name, she's first encountered near a volcano! And things keep heating up- as she throws her Fire Types at the player. Ultimately, she's defeated of course, and flees after claiming the heat is ruining her makeup, but that's not the last you see of her! She may control the least amount of Pokémon out of the Sinis Trio, but she doesn't need that many to keep up with them in terms of threat. Can she win this match though, or will the heat be too much for her?
Oleana is the one bringing that heat! She's the Secretary of Chairman Rose, who was knocked out last Round, so she's the only contestant left to represent Macro Cosmos. But amongst her colleagues, she stands out- being the only Macro Cosmos user to not specialise in Steel Types, instead preferring a team made up of traditionally feminine Pokémon... And Gabodor, of course! Don't let her Secretary role fool you either though, she's a former researcher too, and even invented the Dynamax Band! This makes Oleana the whole reason Dynamax and Gigantamax can be used by the trainers of Galar, and that's pretty incredible, even if she does go astray by aiding Rose's misguided schemes!
