After a rocky start, Fai's able to figure out type advantages and turn the tide before Mari's team decimates his. Between saving her stronger Pokemon towards the end and Fai's strategy of weakening her Pokemon and making them unable to attack, it's a very close match! The spectators were on the edge of their seat the entire time and when Fai finally defeats Mari's last Steelix, the entire stadium bursts into cheers.
It's a little hard to tell with the way she keeps her head ducked, but Mari doesn't seem so upset about losing this battle. After congratulating him, she hands Fai his well earned gym badge and the TR for Iron Tail.
