Good riddance to Trip and Iris. Trip took Bianca too lightly, forgetting the first rule of combat: Never underestimate your opponent. He got his clock cleaned, and good, despite having the upperhand in the start. Taking away the concrete pillars then using them against him was brilliant, especially for Bianca's airheadedness. As for Iris, this may sound cruel, but seeing Excadrill get clobbered by Throh was, how to put this, wonderful. I would LOVE to see Excadrill become disloyal to her again because of such a brutal loss. It was her fault, going in for close-quarter combat against a close-quarter combat specialist Pokemon was dumb to the extreme. I mean, it happened in the past, so why shouldn't it happen again? Poor Cilan, getting interrupted during his "tasting time" statement, then getting clocked by his own Pokemon was both funny and a little sad.
Still, I agree with everyone else, the battles were too short. A little more time for each would've been nice. I mean, Bianca took down Georgia in less than a minute (I know, massive type advantage there, but still). Come one, writers! If you're going to do a tournament like this, at least add some more time and in-depth battles. Make the effort, since it does count!
Other than that, not a bad episode. Glad to see Bianca becoming a bit more powerful, since I adore her. And as I said before, good riddance to Trip. We don't need him wasting oxygen. Serves him right for being so judgmental.
