Question: Control Switch right after Trainer Battle?!

[Marina]

Hello, I was trying to do a Gym, but for the puzzle I tried to make Control Switches after a Trainer Battle, like before the Control Self Switch A is activated, I put a Control Switch to a Trainer battle. Then I made a Conditional Branch on the Gym Leader to check if all Trainer's were defeated! But when I playtest the game...
The Trainer wants to Battle me even though I didn't defeat the other Trainer yet... and the Gym leader don't let me battle her because it seems the control switches at the Trainers' battles aren't working as supposed.

So the question is: If you want to put a Control Switch right after a Trainer Battle ends, where would you put it in?
Thanks in advance :)

Instead of a control switch, why not control a variable? You can make it so that, everytime a trainer is defeated, you add +1 to the variable. Once the variable reach the number of trainers, the gym leader'll be able to battle the player.

@chikorita I've never done that before so I'll do that right now, then I tell you how it went :) thanks for the tip!
edit: it isn't working, Idk why, I put the control variable before "control selfswitch A's on" and on the second page of the trainer battle.
one question; where do I put the control variable in the Trainer battle?
