Looks like they only flip the "losers of the winners".
i.e., the team like VT in the regional that wins in the first round but loses in the second. The losers in the first round stay in their pod and play each other, with the winner getting the one crossover team from the other pod.

WCWS is essentially two 4-team regionals at the same site.

The losers of games 7 and 8 flip pods. Game 7 to 10, 8 to 9. **
