JF009

==Synopsis==
Yazmyne is among the Top 16 competitors remaining in the Kanto Grand Festival. She chooses Ivysaur and Corphish to compete together to win her opening round. Their teamwork proves strong even though their moves are incompatible.
As Yazmyne advances to the quarterfinals, she faces Jason and chooses Corphish and Hawlucha against his team of Sceptile and Ludicolo. Hawlucha is thrilled by the challenge as he sees Sceptile as definitive competition. Yazmyne wins the battle by points with Hawlucha's dancing Detect being perfect against Jason's music strategy. Despite Yazmyne's success, Corphish truly hates contests and doesn't wish to compete anymore, and Yazmyne understands.
The day before the semifinals, Yazmyne meets Jasmine when the girl's training session causes her Corsola to fire a Mirror Coat wayward and in Yazmyne's direction. As they talk, Jasmine says that a trainer years ago inspired her to compete in Contests because she was so shy and alone in her gym. She wanted to break out and be on stage. That trainer is Justin but she doesn't address him by name.
During the semifinals, Yazmyne chooses Ivysaur and Sandshrew, and the latter's Fissure proves devastating, living up to its OHKO status to advance Yazmyne to the finals. Jasmine advances to the finals as well.
