    Spoiler:


    Edit:
    Never mind. This is because some multihit moves animate differently for each hit (for example: bonemerang flies towards the opponent on the first hit and back towards the user on the second hit). Multihit moves that seem to repeat the same animation actually have multiple copies of the same animation, each corresponding to one hit.
