Pretty Cure Super Stars! (2018) Timeline Explained – Every Event in Order

Usobakka is actually Clover, a boy Hana knew as a child. He became consumed by darkness after she failed to keep her promise to meet him again, and he was manipulated by Dark Onibi. The monster's attacks on the Cures stem from Clover's emotional pain and the dark influence controlling him, not from any inherent malice toward the teams.

Usobakka possesses a strange power that can petrify objects, specifically targeting the Pretty Cure transformation devices.
