Raichu: Last time on Total Drama Pokémon Regional Tour, we went to a vacation hotspot, Alola! Beautiful beaches turned into graves for some of our competitors! (Laughs) Anyway, we had a race style challenge through Hau'oil city and it was a good one! Highlights include Lycanroc evilling things up, seeing a shiny Corsola and lastly, Treecko and Bellossom's touching moment and dance which earned them invincibility! Also, an alliance between Piplup and Lycanroc formed but who knows what he's planning? Anyway, the loser was none other than the living pokedex himself, Turtwig. There's still a whopping eleven players left so plenty more epic episodes to come, like this one! Starting right now on Total Drama Pokémon Regional Tour!!!

(Theme song; In economy class)

Lycanroc: (in Midnight form still) So uncomfortable. (water drops on his head) Ugh! I hate economy class! Next time I get on the plane, I better be in first class.

Popplio: Cheer up Lycanroc! At least you have company!

Lycanroc: Bite me. (Lies down as Popplio sighs)

Fennekin: Don't let him get to you Popplio, I think he's just emotional.

Popplio: Don't really understand what your saying...

Fennekin: Maybe Lycanroc changing his forms is kinda like going through puberty. So he's a little emotional now.

Popplio: Eeww. But I guess maybe it makes sense.

Cyndaquil: (wakes up) Ouch my back. Good morning Fennekin. Hey, where is everyone else?

Fennekin: I think they went to get something to eat.

(In the common area)

Koffing: Breakfast is served! It's the one day of the year that you'll get an actual meal so you better enjoy it!

Togedemaru: (rolls eyes) Hahaha. Very funny.

Bulbasaur: So what is it!?

Koffing: NACHOS!!! I had some extra after I made them for Cinco de Mayo.

Squirtle: (jaw drops) Great because I'm starving!

Togedemaru: Why bother because they'll all be gone in three, two, one...

Psyduck: (comes in) I SMELL THE SWEET CHEESE OF NACHOS!!!! (Runs in and wolfs down the whole pile) Mmm.

Pachirisu: Ugh! I hate you Psyduck!

Togedemaru: Hate's a strong word.

Pachirisu: I dislike you for the time being (Togedemaru approves)

Squirtle: Have you ever heard of savoring your food?

Psyduck: (looking puzzled) Sorry I don't speak Italian. (Squirtle slaps himself on the forehead)

Piplup: (sighs) If I wasn't so upset about Turtwig I'd totally be screaming at you right now Psyduck.

Psyduck: (stomach rumbles) Uh oh... GOTTA GO AND BAD! (Dashes off)

(In confessional)
Togedemaru: Sure Psyduck's an oddball but he means well. Good friend.
(End)

Koffing: Well, there's still the sludge for y'all (everyone moans) UNGRATEFUL SCOUNDRELS!!! (Leaves)

Squirtle: (to Bulbasaur) So, what other stories can we tell?

Bulbasaur: We know so much about each other but I think there is one story.

Squirtle: Good cuz I'm so bored. Tell it!

Bulbasaur: Remember our nasty sixth grade health teacher Mrs. Purugly who said she was on a diet?

Squirtle: Yeah.

Bulbasuar: Well the one day I came in during lunch to turn something in and I saw her eating all sorts of sweets! She gave me twenty bucks to not tell anyone! (The two start laughing)

(In first class; Treecko and Bellossom are lying in reclining chairs next to each other)

Treecko: More freshly baked cookies? Yes please! (Takes one from Glaceon as she walks by) So good... But not as good as making up with you.

Bellossom: Aww. I always saw the real you from the beginning.

Treecko: So, can I hear about you if you don't mind me asking?

Bellossom: (blushes) Oh. Uh, sure. Well you know I am a professional dancer and all. I was even going to be on Dancing with the Pokestars but I injured my hip at the time.

Treecko: That's cool. I've always enjoyed just getting out for exercise. There's something about running and flipping that's so...

Bellossom: Blood rushing yet relaxing?

Treecko: Yeah. That's the phrase I was looking for.

(In confessional)
Treecko: Man, Bellossom is just so perfect! She's so nice and she understands both sides of me. It's like she's known me all my life.
(End)

(In economy class)

Popplio: So what did the reporter ask the movie star-

Raichu: (over the loudspeaker) No more jokes Popplio!

Popplio: How did he know that I was-

Raichu: (over the loudspeaker) Anyways we are about to land in Oreburgh City in the Sinnoh region so get hyped for the days challenge.

(In the center of Oreburgh City after the plane lands and everyone exits)

Raichu: Welcome to Oreburgh City!

Piplup: Isn't this the place with Roark the rock type gym leader?

Raichu: Yeah... How did you of all people know?

Piplup: (sighs) Turtwig.

Lycanroc: (softly to Piplup) Come on, nothing makes you feel better than revenge right? (Piplup sorta smiles)

(In confessional)
Lycanroc: Perfect. I've got an ally to help me with my problems and I can throw her under the bus if I ever get caught. This game is like taking candy from a very stupid Happiny.
(End)

Raichu: Okay, for today's first challenge you guys will be battling in a huge, eleven way battle royale!

Popplio: Those were introduced in Alola so why are we doing them here?

Cyndaquil: Because what Raichu says, goes.

Raichu: See!? Cyndaquil gets it! (Pauses) Now, the entire city is your playground so... GO!!! (Everyone takes off) And remember, it's just for an advantage in part two!!!

Togedemaru: We've got each other's backs, right?

Pachirisu: Yeah. (Starts to stare but shakes out of it) Just don't get in my way!

(In confessional)
Pachirisu: You see, I kinda like Togedemaru but I also kinda like winning! Maybe it's best if we're just good friends or allies.
(End)

(In confessional)
Togedemaru: I'm not really sure if Pachirisu considers us as friends but, whatever. As long as I have an alliance mate I'm good.
(End)

Pachirisu: Take this! (Sends an Electro Ball at Popplio)

Popplio: Huh. (Gets hit and faints)

Pachirisu: Bullseye!

Togedemaru: Woah. That's pretty impressive. You're fast, strong and pretty! (They laugh)

Pachirisu: Wait, what did you say?

Togedemaru: (sheepishly) Um, you're fast and pretty strong. (Suddenly they both get hit and knocked out by a Rock Slide and Bubble Beam combo)

Lycanroc: Sure showed them!

Piplup: Yeah we did!

(On the other side of town, Treecko and Bellossom run into Squirtle and Bulbasaur)

Bulbasaur: Uh oh. (Quickly uses Leech Seed to tie up Bellossom) Sweet.

Bellossom: Ow! Help!

Treecko: (angrily) That's it!!! (Uses Pound on Bulbasaur and has him pinned to the ground) This is what you get for hitting Bellossom.

Squirtle: Woah woah woah! Maybe a temporary truce? (Everyone looks at him when suddenly Cyndaquil and Fennekin come in)

Cyndaquil: Sorry for this, but it is a challenge! (Uses Flamethrower to knock out Bellossom)

Treecko: Oh no. Bellossom... (suddenly Squirtle uses Aqua Tail and hits him back) Ow.

Squirtle: You alright Bulbasaur?

Bulbasaur: (nods) I think I got a little more left in me.

Treecko: (fires a Bullet Seed at Cyndaquil) Come on and fight!

Cyndaquil: (uses Quick Attack) Just try and hit me! (Uses Double Team)

Treecko: Which one is the real him... (gets hit by a powerful Flamethrower and faints)

Cyndaquil: Yes!

Fennekin: Nice one Cyndaquil!

Cyndaquil: Thanks Fennekin! (Turns to see her, Squirtle and Bulbasaur suddenly get knocked out) Wha- What happened? (Lycanroc emerges from the shadows)

Lycanroc: You and me. Bring it. (Uses Accelrock to quickly hit Cyndaquil but he dodges with Quick Attack. Then Cyndaquil hits him with Flamethrower) GRRR.

Cyndaquil: Wow. Your really strong! But I need this advantage. (Uses Quick Attack while Lycanroc uses Night Slash. They collide both barely hanging on) I-I-I'm still okay.

Lycanroc: I'm not down y-y-yet. (They both faint at the same time)

Raichu: (to himself) Ooh. What am I supposed to do during a tie? Maybe they both-

Piplup: HELLO? RAICHU?

Raichu: What? Piplup?

Piplup: I'm still standing! (holds her chin high)

Raichu: Wow, I totally forgot. Guess you win the advantage. Congrats. (Piplup celebrates) Now, Chansey, if you'd be so kind to heal the wounded.

(Back in the town center after everyone's healed)

Raichu: So, the winner of our first challenge was Piplup!! (Piplup smiles)

Popplio: (sighs softly) Of course she won.

Cyndaquil: Congratulations Piplup. So Raichu, what's the next part?

Raichu: I was just getting to that Cyndaquil. You see, Oreburgh city is famous for their mines and fossil exhibits. It's a main thing here, so it's only be natural that the main challenge is going into the mining facility and find a fossil!

Cyndaquil: N-not g-good.

(In confessional)
Cyndaquil: I'm not good with tight spaces and mines are notably tight.
(End)

Squirtle: It's gonna be fine Cyndaquil. No one has ever died in a mine.

Raichu: Correction. I've heard that people have died.

Cyndaquil: WHAT!?!?

Fennekin: Settle down. He's just trying to psych you out.

(In confessional)
Fennekin: If I wanna win for Litten I'm gonna have to go all out for these challenges. Sorry Cyndaquil but I may have to leave you behind on this one.
(End)

Raichu: Piplup, you'll see your reward if we take a step inside. (Everyone walks into the mine and sees a rickety elevator) Yeah this thing probably won't come back up so Piplup you can ride it down. While everyone else takes the long way.

Piplup: Yes! I'll be done before any of you can make it down! (Gets in the elevator and it descends quickly) AHHHH!!!

(In confessional)
Piplup: (looking a bit traumatized) That was ten times worse than riding The Tower of Terror at Pokeland...
(End)

Raichu: Now the rest of you, find your way down! (Leaves)

Bulbasaur: Come on Squirtle! I think I see an opening this way! (They head off)

Treecko: Hmm. Maybe if I just... (pushes over a rock to reveal a tunnel) Excellent. Bellossom, follow me!

Lycanroc: Hmm. Time to make everyone suffer. (Uses Earthquake and the floor begins to shake)

Fennekin: What's happening?

Togedemaru: EARTHQUAKE!!!

Pachirisu: Seems I've got no choice now... (jumps onto the rope that held the elevator and slides down)

Lycanroc: Not a bad idea. (Follows Pachirisu)

Cyndaquil: I knew this was a bad idea! (The floor collapses and everyone falls)

Raichu: (to the camera) Uh oh...  Let's just hope they're alive...

(Inside the mine)

Piplup: Oh come on! Why can't a find a freaking fossil! (Stumbles upon a cliff) Woah. Close one. (Bulbasaur and Squirtle pass by) Great, guess my advantage was short lived...

Squirtle: Look some stepping stones to cross that gorge.

Bulbasaur: Those look kinda rickety.

Squirtle: We just gotta jump.

Piplup: Well I was here first! (Jumps onto a stepping stone) Woah. WOAH! (Balances herself and flips over the next few and across) Later!

Squirtle: No! Now Piplup's gonna win.

Bulbasaur: You do realize we didn't even know if there was a fossil over there right?

(Somewhere else)

Lycanroc: Nothing over here... (bumps into Popplio) Hey!

Popplio: Sorry. Oh. Hi Lycanroc!

Lycanroc: Wait, how'd you survive the fall after the floor collapsed without a single scratch?

Popplio: I used my water bubble to break my fall. Pretty neat huh?

Lycanroc: Whatever. Gotta go. (Runs off muttering) Moron.

(In confessional)
Popplio: Something's off with Lycanroc... How the heck did he know I fell!? Unless he had something to do with it...But he couldn't! Lycanroc was real nice before... This is so confusing.
(End)

Popplio: Guess I'll see you Drift-SOON! (Laughs)

(Somewhere else)

Togedemaru: (eyes open) Ouch, my head. (Sits up) Where am I?

Fennekin: Huh? Togedemaru?

Togedemaru: Yeah it's me. (Pauses) Man this day couldn't get any worse. (Suddenly a Diglett comes by)

Diglett: Hey! What are you doing in my reading spot! Daddy! Get these meanies! (A big Dugrio comes out and tries to attack them)

Fennekin: AHHH!!! (Runs off)

Togedemaru: I stand corrected, I guess things can always get worse. (Runs off)

Cyndaquil: (opens eyes) AHHHH! IM IN THE MINE! I GOTTA GET OUT!!! (Runs off)

Dugtrio: See ya you varmint!

(Somewhere else)

Treecko: Why is this mine so huge?

Bellossom: Wait, I've seen those stalactite before... (pauses) Ugh! We've been walking in circles!

Treecko: You gotta be kidding me. This is hopeless.

Bellossom: Don't be like that. This is just a minor setback. We can still win this thing!

Treecko: If you say so. (Smiles) So- (Suddenly hears a shriek of joy) Did you hear that?

Bellossom: That sounded like Piplup! And it came from that way! (They run to the next area and see Piplup with a fossil) Oh no! She's got a fossil!

Piplup: Hey! Find your own!

Treecko: Sorry but I'm not planning on letting you win! (Uses Bullet Seed but misses and rocks fall ontop of him) Ahh! I'm stuck!

Piplup: To bad. So sad. (Frees her fossil from the wall) Nows that's what I'm talking about!

Bellossom: Not so fast! (Uses Dazzling Gleam and hits Piplup)

Piplup: Ow! (To herself) Guess I will get some battling in this episode after all. TAKE THIS! (Shoot a Bubble Beam at Bellossom but she dodges. Bellossom uses Leaf Storm but Piplup dodges as well) Not bad.

Bellossom: You're not bad either.

Treecko: (mumbling) They better not be becoming friends. (Suddenly Pachirisu sneaks by and grabs the fossil)

Pachirisu: Thanks for the fossil you guys! (Piplup chases her off)

(In confessional)
Pachirisu: Taking their fossil isn't cheating! All is fair in love and war, and this is definitely war. I can taste the immunity.
(End)

Bellossom: Hang on Treecko. I'll help you out. (Begins breaking the rocks surrounding Treecko)

(Somewhere else)

Lycanroc: Let's see. A fossil or competitor, I'll take either...

(In confessional)
Lycanroc: My plan is pretty simple. I'll break the bonds connecting everyone here. No more alliances means a free ticket to the finale for me.
(End)

Lycanroc: (spots Bulbasaur and Squirtle) Hey Bulbasaur! Over here! (Bulbasaur comes over)

Bulbasaur: Oh, hey Lycanroc.

Lycanroc: You know, I heard that Squirtle said he's getting a bit fed up with you.

Bulbasaur: What? Excuse me but Squirtle's my best friend and he could never do that. (Narrows his eyes) Are you plotting to turn us against each other?

Lycanroc: (sheepishly laughs) What? No way. Um, I just thought that because that's what Togedemaru told me.

Bulbasaur: So he's the one trying to start something! He never seemed the nicest to me from the beginning (starts to think)

Squirtle: Bulbasaur! I think I found something! (Bulbasaur comes over) Look! (Holds up a fossil)

Bulbasaur: Sweet! A cover fossil!

Lycanroc: (peers from behind a rock) Oh I don't think so. (Uses Accelrock to quickly push Squirtle off the nearby ledge without being seen)

Squirtle: BULBASAUR HELP! IM SLIPPING!

Bulbasaur: I'm coming! Hang on Squirtle. (Looks to the side and sees the fossil wobbling on the edge and then looks back at Squirtle. Both the fossil and Squirtle fall but Bulbasaur uses Vine Whip to catch Squirtle) I got you bud. Phew.

Squirtle: Thanks. But the fossil- You didn't save it.

Bulbasaur: And let you fall? No way! (They hug)

(Somewhere else)

Lycanroc: Time to win this thing! (Looks at his hands) WHAT!? (Face palms himself) How could I forget to snag the fossil. UGH!!!!

(Somewhere else)

Popplio: I can't believe I've had zero luck on finding a fossil. You?

Togedemaru: Nope. But I've been having bad luck all my life so it's expected.

Fennekin: At this point we might as well work together.

Popplio: As a bear would say, That's a
GRRR-ate idea! (Laughs)

Togedemaru: (rolls eyes) I gotta go anywhere but here. (Leaves)

Fennekin: Togedemaru! Where are you going! (Follows him off) What is it? Popplio?

Togedemaru: Duh. How can anyone put up with him all day?

Fennekin: Everyone's a little different, that's all. Besides, you and Pachirisu are totally different and you like each other. Just a matter of getting used to someone. Forgive me if I'm prying too much here, but I've noticed you and Pachirisu are friends but there's something holding you back. Like you like her but you don't.

Togedemaru: She's competitive. She cares more about things than I do. We aren't alike at all.

Fennekin: That didn't stop me and Litten.

Togedemaru: (thinks for a moment) Ugh okay. Let's go back. (Goes back and looks around) Um, where did Popplio go?

(Somewhere else)

Popplio: (rambling when he looks around) Where'd they go? Oops. Must of been too focused on my jokes. (Gets hit in the head by a fossil) Ow. Hey! It's a fossil but where did this come from?

Cyndaquil: (digging nearby) I WILL FIND A WAY OUT!!!! I'M NOT GONNA DIE!!!

Popplio: (gets Cyndaquil's attention) Cyndaquil you found a fossil!

Cyndaquil: Who cares about that when I'm gonna die!?

(In confessional)
Popplio: I know what your thinking. Popplio, why are you being a doofus? Just take the fossil and win! (Shakes his head) I may usually be all laughs and jokes but when it comes to fairness, there's no laughing matter.
(End)

Popplio: Cyndaquil you can win! All you have to do is find a way out! (Cyndaquil continues spazzing out) FINE THEN! (Grabs Cyndaquil and pulls him along)

(Somewhere else)

Pachirisu: Phew. I think I lost her.

Piplup: Sorry, but that's where your wrong.

Pachirisu: Don't hate me for this. (Uses Electro Ball and Piplup falls down) Later! (Runs off)

Piplup: (struggling to get up) Well played but I'll come out on top next time. (Starts to trudge by when she spots a fossil) Could it be? Another one? (Uses Peck to carve out the fossil) Yes! I still have a chance!

(At the the top of the mine)

Koffing: No twos. Go fish Psyduck.

Psyduck: But I don't have a Good Rod.

Raichu: (to the camera) It's gonna be a close one! With the way they came in destroyed it's a matter of who can find another way out.

Popplio: (pushes a rock forward and comes out a secret exit) Woo whooo! I found it!

Cyndaquil: Yes! Fresh air! Thanks Popplio.

Popplio: Now go and win!

Cyndaquil: What? No way! You saved me, you deserve to win.

Rsichu: Tick tock! Tick tock! (Suddenly Piplup comes out of another secret exit and gives her fossil to Raichu) And Piplup wins immunity!!!

Piplup: Yes!

Popplio: Aw man, we were so clo-SENTRET!
(Laughs)

Raichu: Yeah, not your best material Popplio.

Pachirisu: (arrives) What!? Did Piplup win!? But how?

Piplup: You can watch this episode and find out when you go home.

Raichu: Okay, enough is enough. Koffing, round up the rest of these idiots and bring em on the plane.

Koffing: Yeah, yeah. Hold your Mudbrays.

Psyduck: YES! BINGO!

(Koffing rounds everyone up and they all board the plane and it takes off; In the common area)

Lycanroc: Congrats on the win Piplup.

Piplup: Thanks. Turtwig would be proud.

Lycanroc: Speaking of which, (lying) I know who was the one who got him eliminated and it wasn't Treecko. (Starts whispering)

(In confessional)
Lycanroc: Now hopefully I can convince or trick others into voting them out. Face it, they know too much now that I think of it. They were way too close to the one Pokémon that knew something was up with me. Ba-bye.
(End)

(In the elimination room a little bit later)

Raichu: Well let me start by saying that was the fastest voting process to date. (Looks at Treecko) What happened to you?

Treecko: After Bellossom got the rocks away from me I found out I broke my arm.

Squirtle: Yikes. That had to hurt.

Pachirisu: Good thing Pokémon heal quickly.

Raichu: So obviously, the first pokepuff goes to Piplup!

Piplup: Score! (Catches her treat)

Raichu: Also remaining in the competition are... Squirtle, Bulbasaur, Lycanroc, Bellossom, Pachirisu, Cyndaquil and Treecko! (Throws them their pokepuff) Enjoy! Anyways, that leaves us with Popplio, Fennekin and Togedemaru. Now this actually surprises me. I have no clue why you guys are on the chopping block.

Piplup: Well Popplio's annoying, but I didn't vote for him.

Popplio: Seriously? (Raichu throws him a pokepuff) AWESOME! I'm safe!

Raichu: Fennekin. Togedemaru. I've got one pokepuff left. And it goes to...

(Fennekin and Togedemaru look nervous and begin to sweat a bit)

Raichu: ...Togedemaru!

Togedemaru: Yes! I'm safe!

Pachirisu: (softly) Yes! He's safe.

Fennekin: B-but. Why? Why me?

Lycanroc: Oh no! You poor thing! (Goes over to her and whispers) I know Litten told you about me. You were stupid enough to not tell anyone else. To tell them what my plans are.

Fennekin: What are you talking about? And what plans!?

Lycanroc: Um. (Gives her a parachute and shoves her off) BYE!!!

Fennekin: AHHHHH!!! (Lycanroc comes back and no one heard what he had said)

Raichu: Oh, I forgot something. Piplup, you can take someone up to first class with you. Who's it gonna be?

Piplup: Hmm... I'm gonna pick Lycanroc.

Raichu: Alright, you heard her. Now go enjoy the rest of your flight. (Clears throat; to the camera) We are down to ten but with ten times the drama! Will anyone find out what's really up with Lycanroc? Will Popplio stop telling jokes? And will Psyduck get paid? The answers are most likely no but you can never me sure unless you come back next time for more Total Drama Pokémon Regional Tour!!!
