Raichu: Last time on Total Drama Pokemon All Stars, the fifty percent of our cast that remained found out what is was like to be a basketball. Well... sort of. They had to slide down some crazy slides and shoot out into the basketball net set up below to score points for their team. (Laughs) What a crazy challenge idea. Certainly very unique-

Psyduck: (runs up) Raichu, Raichu! I've got bad news.

Raichu: I don't care if you made a mess of the staff room again Psyduck.

Psyduck: No it's not that. (Puases) You're being sued by that other reality show for stealing their idea-

Raichu: WHAT!? I would never! How dare they! Well... crap we'll deal with that later. (Shoos Psyduck away) Anyways, where was I? Oh yeah. Recap time! Buizel proved to be a slam dunk at the challenge, scoring lots of points for his team, but too bad it was offset by him and Buneary accidentally pushing Cubchoo down a slide. Whoops. On the Surreal Suicunes, Sawk started to get fed up with delays from Alcremie and Meowstic. That's certainly a new side to him. And lastly, the Enraged Enteis, assisted by Fuecoco, fought hard to win a challenge. And they actually did! Sadly it came at the cost of Grookey's competition life, as he scored the winning basket but ended up getting mauled by sharks and had to leave the competition. With one already gone, I gave the Enteis the choice of which team to send to elimination. They ended up choosing the Reckless Raikous after Snivy announced to everyone that Chikorita found an immunity idol and she'd be a threat if she brought it along to merge. But surprise surprise! Well, not to me it wasn't. Turns out the idol was a fake made by Snivy and with no idol to save her, Chikorita was inadvertently eliminated by her team! (Laughs) Man. Sucks to be her. Guess the Snivy-Chespin alliance is officially terminated. Let's see if he can get his revenge, today on Total Drama Pokemon All Stars!

(Theme song; In the spa hotel)

Mudkip: Oh. Thanks for the wonderful breakfast Furfrow! I really appreciate it.

Furfrow: Of course master Mudkip. Enjoy the toast of France.

Mudkip: Actually I don't think it's... You know what never mind. (Sits down next to Sprigatito) Hey Sprigatito, has Furfrou been treating you nicely?

Sprigatito: (sadly) Huh? Oh I dunno, I haven't asked him for anything.

Mudkip: Wait what!? Why?

Sprigatito: (sighs) Because I didn't deserve it. Grookey is the one who deserved it but he's not here anymore to get the reward.

Mudkip: Aww, I'm really sorry Sprigatito. I know you must miss him and are worried but I truly think he'll be okay. He's a fighter!

Sprigatito: I know... (pauses) Don't worry about me though. I'll bounce back. Well... assuming I'm here long enough to.

Mudkip: What do you mean by that?

Sprigatito: I'm the only non original cast member on this team! If we don't merge, I'm totally toast.

Mudkip: Hey well Charmander hates me so I'm in that boat too. But yeah this really sucks. We can only hope for the best here. (Sprigatito nods and stands up and walks into the next room where she runs into Litten)

Sprigatito: Oh? Hey Litten.

Litten: Sup. To quote a poster, hope you're hanging in there. Y'know, one cat to another heh.

Sprigatito: Oh thanks. And also, thank you for jumping in to to help save Grookey yesterday. I know you hate water so it must've been tough for-

Litten: What!? Oh I mean... yeah I was already wet anyways so eh, not a big deal. (Walks off)

(In confessional)
Litten: Ugh great, just what I needed. I don't want expectations of being some goody-goody. She should still be thinking of me as a monster who ruined things with Fennekin! (Sulks) Not that I want to be THAT bad... but it's less pressure that way.
(End)

(In the mess hall)

Alcremie: Wait really? That's so cool!

Meowstic: Yeah I was student council president three years in a row.

(In confessional)
Meowstic: No I wasn't. It was Machamp, the stupid popular jock. Can you believe that he didn't show up for any meetings? What a joke. An eggplant would've made a better president then him!
(End)

Alcremie: Oh wow, that's really impressive. I would never be able to find the courage to run for something like that.

Meowstic: Really? I'm sure you'd be good.

Alcremie: Eh maybe. Not worth the risk of screwing up, losing, and being a laughing stock. You are pretty brave to take a leading role like that. I guess you and I are just different in that regard.

Meowstic: What? Oh... (sheepishly laughs; nervously) Yeah different maybe, but I think we are still similar. I can teach you my ways and you can better yourself and not silently waste away your life- (covers his mouth) Oops I didn't-

Alcremie: Waste away my life? Look I'm fine living my life as it is okay... (suddenly stands up and heads off)

Meowstic: No wait! (Sighs) Ugh, dammit. (Gets up and walks over to Pachirisu) Why am I such an idiot?

Pachirisu: (sarcastically) Do you want the short version or the long version?

Meowstic: (frowns) Really?

Pachirisu: Sorry. What's wrong?

Meowstic: Why do I keep acting like a moron when talking to Alcremie? I used to just enjoy talking to her but now I keep being stupid trying to make myself look more impressive so she'll like me.

Pachirisu: Ugh, this again? Meowstic just be yourself! I'm sure she likes you as is, and she's the type of girl who finds popularity intimidating.

Meowstic: I know... you're right.

(In confessional)
Pachirisu: At first I was happy to help Meowstic out with his crush questions but now, day after day of the same stuff... (narrows her eyes) Yeah it's getting a little old.
(End)

(Out front of the cabins)

Bellossom: I still feel so awful about yesterday. Damn Snivy and his tricks!

Sobble: Poor Chikorita...

Cubchoo: We probably should have just voted normally...

(In confessional)
Fennekin: I feel bad for her too but... I mean it spared me of pissing off either Buizel or Bellossom, so honestly works out a bit for me. (Pauses) Agh. Did that sound selfish of me? Sorry.
(End)

Buneary: Yeah, I guess nothing can be done now though.

Bellossom: (stands up) No wait a second! There IS something we can do. What if once we reach merge we all bind together and vote off Snivy!

Cubchoo: Oh now that's a great idea!

Buizel: Eh, I mean maybe... No offense but that doesn't seem the smartest.

Buneary: Buizel what are you saying?

Buizel: What? I mean I don't care for Snivy but there are other threats to get rid of. Maybe we could all promise not to vote each other?

Bellossom: (rolls eyes) Oh please. Not falling for that again Buizel.

Buizel: Well then why are you suggesting to team up to boot Snivy?

Bellossom: Because I thought maybe we could put aside our differences for Chikorita's sake! Guess not.

(In confessional)
Sobble: Eep. Ever since Treecko was booted Bellossom has been a bit different when she has to deal with Buizel and Buneary. Thankfully she's still friendly as can be to me.
(End)

(Elsewhere; Snivy is asleep on a bed. He wakes up and yawns and goes to roll out of bed when he is shown splashing into the oceans)

Snivy: (surfaces, spitting out water) PFFT. What the hell? What's going on? (Pauses) UGH! CHESPIN!

(On the dock)

Spheal: (laughing) We got him pretty good!

Chespin: Ahh, yeah. But this is only just a taste of what he has coming his way.

(In confessional)
Chespin: Snivy had a scheme to get me or Chikorita out and it annoyingly worked. (Sighs) It should have been me to go first this time, not her. (Pauses) Chikorita, if you're watching this, I miss you so so much already. But don't worry. I'm gonna take out Snivy if it's the last thing I do!
(End)

Spheal: I'm proud of you for staying strong Chespin!

Chespin: Thanks man. I'm glad to have you here. (Thinks) Hmm, now then... how should we throw the next challenge so we can vote off Snivy?

Spheal: (laughs) You know what? I think the team might just be on board for that one.

(In the spa hotel)

Charmander: Hey Cyndaquil my man, what's going through your mind? You look troubled.

Cyndaquil: Seriously Charmander? You know what's wrong and you're most of it.

Charmander: Woah! What did I do?

Cyndaquil: You've been hard on Mudkip and then pushed him down a slide yesterday for starters...

Charmander: Uhh... I mean, so? (Pauses) Look I just try to be honest. That's all.

Cyndaquil: Well whatever. (Frowns) If you really cared you'd help me out here. Otherwise... (gives a serious look) Count me out of the alliance! Maybe that will make Mudkip forgive me!

Charmander: What? (Sternly) Oh please, with Mudkip mad at you, I'm your only true ally here! I know you're not that dumb to turn me away. (Cyndaquil gives a worried expression)

(In confessional)
Cyndaquil: (sighs) He's right... He's being a total jerk, but he's right. (Folds his arms) I REALLY don't like this side of you Charmander.
(End)

Raichu: (over the speakers) Rise and shine campers! Hope you are all ready for another fabulous day! Let's meet at the amphitheater pronto!

(At the amphitheater)

Buneary: Ugh, please just let today be something normal like a talent show.

Fennekin: With this current Raichu? Yeah, no way is that possible.

Raichu: Alright campers, settle down and take your seats. Now then, Psyduck and Fuecoco, come on up. I believe you have something to say?

Psyduck: We do? (Fuecoco hits him with a folded up banner) Oww. Oh! We do!

Sawk: What are you two doing?

Fuecoco: We go walk up onstage. Then we show.

Raichu: Today's special announcement is... (Psyduck and Fuecoco turn around to reveal the banner they made that says "M-A-R-G-E") MERGEEEEEE!!!

Psyduck & Fuecoco: HAPPY MERGE DAY!!!

Raichu: That's right campers! The time has come for you to finally- (notices the banner) Wait, I'm sorry, does that say MARGE?

Fuecoco: Huh? (Looks at it) Oh. Me thinks it's a pirate's way of saying merge! (In a pirate voice) MARGGHE!!

Psyduck: WHAT!? Wait I thought it was Marge day. Aww...

Bellossom: Marge day? As in-

Psyduck: Dammit I got my super tall blue wig for nothing. (Puts it on) Oh well. I'm gonna wear it anyways.

Raichu: (raises an eyebrow) Okay... Whelp glad Vulpix and Sandshrew aren't here to eviscerate you for that ugly thing.

Psyduck: Oh please! Y'all just jealous of my style! (Snaps his fingers and then walks off with Fuecoco)

Raichu: (laughs) Alright then. But yeah, campers you are now officially merged! From here on out you compete for individual immunities and all will be at risk of elimination. Get excited!

(In confessional)
Sawk: Finally, the merge! I've been waiting for this for so long! If I were to be a pre-merge boot again I would never let myself hear the end of it.
(End)

(In confessional)
Snivy: The merge coming now seems about right. It's a good thing too because my team had it out for me. Now as long as I win immunity, they can't touch me!
(End)

Spheal: Wow. A merge with eighteen contestants is wild!

Alcremie: For reals. Hard to imagine how one measly immunity will make a difference.

Raichu: Oh don't worry, we're keeping things interesting. Since there are so many of you still here, it only makes sense that several of you win immunity. At least for the first few merge challenges that is.

Chespin: Are you kidding me? You just want to give villains more room to be safe! No fair!

Raichu: Oh it's completely fair Chespin! Get with the program. And this makes things more interesting. With the two campers that have the most votes going home each day, earning immunity is especially a big deal!

Pachirisu: So challenges matter more than ever now huh? Sweet!

(In confessional)
Pachirisu: I have more merge challenge wins than any other contestant in TDP history! And now I don't even have to be the sole winner to get invincibility? I've so got this!
(End)

Raichu: Moving onwards, it's time for the first merge challenge! Follow me to the beach ladies and gentlemen! (They all start to walk off)

Chespin: Cyndaquil! Mudkip! Awesome you two are still here!

Cyndaquil: Oh thanks Chespin. Same to you!

Chespin: What's say we get some season one nostalgia going on? You feel me?

Mudkip: Oh? You mean the three of us teaming up to take down Snivy again? (Chepsin nods) Oh, um, sure. (Softly) You know eventually... (walks off ahead)

Cyndaquil: Sorry. Mudkip isn't very happy with me at the moment.

Chespin: What really? Oh dude, that sucks I'm sorry. I'm sure you can sort things out though. Let me know if you need anything.

Cyndaquil: Thanks Chespin.

(At the beach)

Litten: If he tells us it's another water challenge again today I'm legit gonna throw a tantrum.

Fennekin: Ha! Not surprising. You ARE an immature baby after all.

Litten: Fennekin-

Fennekin: What did you do that one time at the movies? Oh yeah. You lost a fight with a six year old as he kicked your seat and you tried to dump popcorn on him, but you slipped and dumped it on yourself? (Litten looks angry and growls)

Sobble: EEP! Okay Fennekin let's stand over here... (softly) I know you're mad at him but didn't you say you were gonna just try to ignore him from now on?

(In confessional)
Fennekin: Okay, yes I did say that. And I've also been thinking about what Sobble said to me on looking at things from someone else's perspective. I think I'm willing to give that advice a shot... but then I see Litten's face and UGH! All that anger and sadness comes rushing back and I can't help but put him in his place!
(End)

Raichu: Okay everyone, listen up! Today's challenge will be a classic. Dueling stick fights!

Sobble: Agh. That sounds scary!

Buizel: And it'll probably be even worse too...

Raichu: Eh. The scariness will depend on just how hard your opponent wants to hit ya. (Laughs) Anyways, Koffing, bring in the junk!

Cubchoo: The junk? What are you-

Koffing: (from above in a plane) LOOK OUT BELOW!!! (The plane's cargo opens up and he dumps huge mounds of random stuff on everyone)

Mudkip: AGHH! EVERYBODY RUN FOR IT!!! (They avoid the falling junk which piles up next to the beach)

Sawk: Holy-

Sprigatito: Okay now that definitely has to be a felony! Just how much litter do you have?

Raichu: Relax! We'll clean it up afterwards! But here's the deal. Amidst this trash heap of random objects will be various weapons for dueling, such as dueling sticks! At the start of each round I will call out a weapon type. The eight campers that locate that weapon move on to the second phase of the challenge, which will be a bracket style dueling tournament! You'll be ontop of the platforms over the water, and first to fall off loses the round. In the end, the winner of that tournament gets invincibility! Then we'll rinse and repeat this format until we have FIVE, YES FIVE, winners!

Bellossom: Woah! Five? That's a lot.

Cubchoo: I know right. We'll be here all day.

Raichu: Well good. We'll have a lot of footage then. Now then... ready? The first round is classic dueling sticks. NOW GO!!! (Everyone rushes off).

(Amongst the junk pile)

Sobble: Agh! This is a lot of stuff!

Fennekin: At least it doesn't appear to be actually gross garbage. Just random junk.

Sobble: Yeah like a bad closet you shove everything into and the door holds on for dear life. (Laughs)

Buizel: Outta the way! Coming through! (Shoves past them and begins searching) Alright dueling sticks are long so this shouldn't be too hard.

Buneary: Be careful Buizel. You don't want to get crushed by this random junk.

Snivy: (smirks) So it'd be a shame if someone knocked this pile of stuff over then huh? (Smacks it with his tail) Whoops!

Buizel: AGHH! SHIT! (The junk pile falls on him and Buneary)

Snivy: Hehe. Suckers. (Buizel and Buneary pop up)

Buneary: Oh wow. Two dueling sticks! (Holds hers up) Thanks Snivy!

Buizel: Yeah thanks. (Laughs) And what are you even thinking? Didn't have enough enemies already, so you wanted to make more? (Snivy looks angry)

(Elsewhere at the junk pile)

Bellossom: Aha! Found one! (Heads off)

Pachirisu: Dangit! There goes another one!

Meowstic: Hey Pachirisu! Any luck finding a dueling stick?

Pachirisu: (sighs) No. If I had one I wouldn't still be here searching.

Meowstic: Bummer. Anyways, I was thinking of telling Alcremie that I'm working on designing a baking video game.

Pachirisu: (raises an eyebrow) Are you?

Meowstic: Well no but-

Pachirisu: THEN WHY WOULD YOU!?!? Absolutely don't do that! Now can I get back to searching? (Meowstic just backs away)

(Elsewhere at the junk pile)

Alcremie: What the heck is this? A toaster oven?

Spheal: Oh sweet does it work? (Gets his flipper caught in it) AGH! OH NO PLEASE DONT WORK!

Alcremie: Spheal hang on- (Spheal rolls off freaking out when Alcremie uncovers a dueling stick) Aha! Alright! (Suddenly Sawk comes by pushing past her and grabs the stick) Hey!

Sawk: Sorry, but you didn't claim it yet.

Alcremie: That's still really rude!

Sawk: Apologies, but it's everyone for themselves now. And I really want to win this one. (Alcremie folds her arms when she notices another stick and grabs it and smiles)

Alcremie: Alright!

(Elsewhere)

Raichu: (Announcing) Mudkip and Meowstic find the sixth and seventh dueling sticks! That means there's only one left for this round!

Cyndaquil: Only one left already? That sure was fast.

Litten: Yeah people seem too eager to do this challenge (laughs). Anyways, you know if you were to face Mudkip here that could be just what you need.

Cyndaquil: What?

Litten: Yeah like if you let him win, it'd show him you think he has a better shot of winning than you do. Right?

Cyndaquil: I didn't think of that, but yeah! That might work. But I'd need to get lucky and find a dueling stick of course...

Litten: Well then, today's your lucky day. (Holds up a dueling stick and hands it out)

Cyndaquil: Wait what? You serious?

Litten: Yeah of course dude. Happy to help you out. (Pauses) And I'd rather avoid potentially being hit into the water heh.

Raichu: (announcing) THE LAST STICK HAS BEEN FOUND! NOW IT'S TIME TO RANDOMIZE THE MATCHES AND PUT YA ON YOUR PLATFORMS!!!

(The eight campers competing stand atop their platforms)

Raichu: (announcing) So it looks like we've got ourselves the following matchups. Sawk vs Alcremie, Meowstic vs Buneary, Bellossom vs Buizel, and finally Cyndaquil vs Mudkip. NOW BEGIN!!!

Buizel: I'm up against Bellossom? Nice.

Bellossom: Oh really? What's so nice about it?

Buizel: Well nothing, just that- (lunges at her) HA! (Bellossom clashes with him with her stick to hold him off) Huh?

Bellossom: You really need to stop underestimating your opponents, you know that?
(Buizel takes swings at her and she dodges and pushes him back) Take that!

Buizel: Grrr. Okay let's see you dodge THIS! (Takes a big swing and Bellossom barely ducks backwards under it. She then twirls her stick and smacks Buizel off the platform) AGHH!!

Bellossom: Yes, yes, yes!

(In confessional)
Bellossom: That one was for you Treecko!
(End)

(In confessional)
Buizel: (spits out water) Ugh, you've got to be kidding me. Never living that one down, that's for sure...
(End)

Raichu: (announcing) Bellossom knocks off Buizel! I wonder who else will advance to the second round here?

Sawk: Look Alcremie... you do realize this is a battle of strength right?

Alcremie: (nervously) I mean yeah but... I'm- I'm not gonna give up!

Sawk: So that's a challenge then?

(In confessional)
Alcremie: Sawk is definitely physically the strongest player here, so I have no idea how I can beat him. He's no Riolu, but still...
(End)

Alcremie: I mean I guess-

Sawk: Get ready to be destroyed!

Alcremie: W-wait! Maybe just don't go too hard on me?

Sawk: Sorry, but I only know how to give one hundred percent! (Knocks Alcremie off in one strong blow)

Raichu: (announcing) OOOH! Alcremie is OUT! That one is gonna bruise.

Meowstic: (turns from his platform) What the? Alcremie!

Buneary: Hey! I'm over here you know. (Meowstic turns looking angry and the two clash but eventually Meowstic hits her off) AGHH!

(In confessional)
Meowstic: (angry) Okay now that does it! Sawk is going DOWN for hurting Alcremie like that!
(End)

Raichu: (announcing) And that just leaves one last match for this first round... but it seems to not be going anywhere...

Mudkip: Ugh, just stop avoiding my swings Cyndaquil!

Cyndaquil: (dodging) I just want to talk okay? In fact, Mudkip I want you to win this one.

Mudkip: (stops swinging) Huh? What!?

Cyndaquil: Yeah I just want to say that I believe in you and know you can win this. So go ahead I'll let you hit me off.

Mudkip: Wait... what? Are you saying... (angry) Are you saying the only way I could possibly beat you is if you let me!?

Cyndaquil: What? No, no I-

Mudkip: UGH, fat chance of that! (Jumps off the platform into the water)

Raichu: (announcing) CYNDAQUIL WINS!!! (Cyndaquil sighs)

(In confessional)
Cyndaquil: Ugh. Never imagined that would go as poorly as it just did...
(End)

(The next matches begin and Cyndaquil duels Bellossom and Meowstic duels Sawk)

Meowstic: Hey Sawk, get ready because I'm gonna wipe that smug grin off your face!

Sawk: My smug face? Ha!

Meowstic: What's so funny?

Sawk: Well if we're being honest, the fact you think I'd be threatened by you is comical. You've never been good at physical challenges.

Meowstic: (angry) Oh yeah? Well at least I don't go all out trying to fight someone and hurt them badly!

Raichu: (announcing) Looks like Bellossom took down Cyndaquil! And ooh seems over here Meowstic is getting maaaadddd.

Sawk: You mean me clobbering Alcremie? She fell in the water, she's fine! It's a challenge! (Rolls eyes) You know you are being really immature here.

Meowstic: No I'm not! (Charges at him) This is for you doubting us yesterday and today! GRAH! (Swings and Sawk easily deflects it and kicks Meowstic off the platform and into the water)

Sawk: Heh. Easy.

Raichu: (announcing) SAWK WINS! TIME FOR THE FINAL MATCHUP!

(Sawk and Bellossom circle each other)

Cubchoo: (yelling) Go Bellossom! You can do it!

Pachirisu: (yelling) You've got this Sawk! (The two start dueling)

Bellossom: (ducks under a swing) Woah close one.

Sawk: Impressive dodging, but you won't be beat me with that.

Bellossom: I'm so close, no way am I giving up now!

Sawk: Same here! (The two collide with more attacks but Sawk is able to overpower her and knock her off) Aha! Yes!

Raichu: (announcing) AND SAWK IS OUR FIRST INVINCIBILITY WINNER!!!

(In confessional)
Sawk: YES! First invincibility winner of the All Stars season! How's that for an achievement?
(End)

Bellossom: (on the beach) Ugh so close.

Fennekin: You did good Bellossom. Sawk's just impossible...

Sawk: Aww thank you for the compliment! (Fennekin rolls her eyes)

Raichu: (announcing) Alright everyone except for Sawk, get back to searching! This time you are looking for swords!

Buneary: (shocked) What!? Swords!? Are you serious?

Cubchoo: He can't be! Someone could most certainly die from something that sharp!

Raichu: Relaxxxx! The swords are made of wood!

Chepsin: (pulls out a sword) What do you know? He was telling the truth there.

Snivy: (finds a sword) Hmm interesting. (Chespin glares at him)

Chespin: Raichu, I'll give you ten bucks if you match me up with Snivy! (Snivy rolls his eyes)

Raichu: Ha! Tempting! I'll think about it.

(Elsewhere by the junk pile)

Charmander: Ugh, come on stupid sword. Where are you at? (Reaches and grabs something) Huh? What's this? (Pulls out a crab pinching his hand) OWW! OH COME ON! GET OFF ME! (Flails his hand around and runs off)

Cubchoo: Eesh. Looks painful.

Mudkip: Yeah well he deserves it so... (goes back to searching)

(Elsewhere by the junk pile)

Pachirisu: (frantically searching) Come on, come on. Get yourself in the game Pachirisu! (Gets tapped on the shoulder) AGH! (Turns around and smacks Meowstic with a piece of junk in her hand and then covers her mouth in shock) Agh! Meowstic!

Meowstic: (stands up holding his face) Oww... my face... (pauses) It's fine, it's fine.

Pachirisu: You shouldn't sneak up on people like that. Now then I need to get back to-

Meowstic: Can you believe how rough Sawk was towards Alcremie!? What a jerk!

Pachirisu: (rolls her eyes) Yeah what a monster.

Meowstic: I'd never do something like that! Especially to someone who's so kind and cute and- ACK! I... um... I didn't just say that. Is Alcremie nearby? I hope she isn't because I'd die if she heard that heh. (Pachirisu slaps him) Ow! Again? You knew I was here that time, so what was that for!?

Pachirisu: Pull yourself together Meowstic! Look this whole first crush thing was cute at first, but now it's getting old.

Meowstic: Um, excuse me?

Pachirisu: You need to just tell her how you feel already! Stop dragging this out! (Pauses) So are you gonna tell her or not? (There is a long moment of silence)

Meowstic: I mean... after some of the embarrassing stuff I've said and done... I wish I could but I just can't-

Pachirisu: Okay that does it then. (Grabs Meowstic and drags him to where Alcremie is)

Alcremie: Huh? Oh hey what's-

Pachirisu: Meowstic has a crush on you. Just wanted to let you know that. He like-likes you and all that. I'm pretty sure you feel the same but both of you are too anxious to ask out the other, so I'm doing it for you two. Good? Good. (Runs off and Meowstic and Alcremie's faces both turn red and they stand there silently)

(In confessional)
Pachirisu: I HAD to do this. For both their own goods, and my own here. If I would've had to get distracted from the challenge again I was gonna flipping lose it!
(End)

Alcremie: (blushing) Well I... um... yeah I didn't expect that to happen...

Meowstic: Well I guess that cat is officially out of the bag then... (pauses) It's cool if you don't feel the same way and all but-

Alcremie: Meowstic. (Grabs his hands) I think you are really sweet and funny. I like you too! I just was afraid you only wanted to be friends.

Meowstic: Oh wow, I had the same thoughts. (Scratches head) Guess we are pretty similar. But you should know that I-

Alcremie: Exaggerated some stuff like being student council president? (Meowtsic embarrassingly nods) I kinda figured heh. Don't feel like you need to be more than you already are because I like you as is you know? (Blushes) Oops that probably sounded cheesy.

Meowstic: No, that was perfectly sweet. Just like you always are. (The two lean in to kiss when suddenly an airhorn sounds and they stop)

Raichu: (announcing) ALL EIGHT SWORDS HAVE BEEN FOUND! TIME FOR OUR NEXT DUELING TOURNEY TO BEGIN!!!

(In confessional)
Alcremie: (panicking) Agh I hope I didn't look desperate. Did I act stupid? Was I sweating? Do you think he's upset I said- (takes a deep breath) Nope! Don't let your anxiety ruin this moment for you! (Smiles) Meowstic likes me! He actually really likes me!
(End)

Raichu: (announcing) Let's get this thing going again! GO!

(The camera shows the matches begin with campers clashing swords in the following matches: Buizel vs Cubchoo, Fennekin vs Snivy, Chespin vs Sprigatito, and Charmander vs Buneary)

Buizel: Aha! En Garde!

Fennekin: Oh I'm so taking you down Snivy!

Sprigatito: Come at me!

Charmander: Oh yeah, now this is fun!

(On the beach spectating)

Sobble: Go go Cubchoo! You can do it! (To Bellossom) You think he can do it?

Bellossom: (shrugs) It'd be really awesome if he could hehe.

Pachirisu: Ugh, another WASTED round for me. (Sighs)

Sawk: Don't worry, you'll get 'em next time now that Meowstic won't distract you.

Spheal: Come on Chespin! (Cyndaquil taps him) Huh? Oh hey Cyndaquil!

Cyndaquil: Hey Spheal. Could I ask you something real quick?

Spheal: Yeah what's up- Oh wait! Is it about Mudkip? (Cyndaquil nods) I completely forgot to tell you before, but he spoke to me during that Volcarona Virus challenge.

(In confessional)
Spheal: Am I breaking Mudkip's trust here? (Pauses) I don't think so. I'm helping him and Cyndaquil patch their friendship up after all, and that's what a good friend would do here!
(End)

Spheal: He was saying that he heard you say he was useless and stuff.

Cyndaquil: But I didn't! I wouldn't! (Sighs) I mean I did get him to train with me in the mornings to help him hone his skills but I never said anything to him because that's not how I feel! You gotta believe me here Spheal.

Spheal: I believe you, I believe you! But I doubt Mudkip is imagining what he heard... (thinks for a moment) Oh wait! He mentioned you were talking with Charmander when you said it! During the Splatoon challenge I think.

Cyndaquil: Talking to Charmander? (Thinks) Hmm the only conversation I can think of is- (has a flashback to Cyndaquil telling off Charmander during that challenge)

(Flashback)

Charmander: Sheesh sorry. I really didn't do anything. How is it my fault you feel this way?

Cyndaquil: Because you are the one that tries to make me believe that- (Mudkip approaches and can hear the conversation but they don't see him) -Mudkip is utterly useless when it comes to anything physical! I have to carry him through every challenge and even though he's my best friend, he's objectively a sandbag to our team. (Mudkip tears up and runs off) Well Charmander, that couldn't be any farther from the truth!! Maybe if you believed in your friends more, you'd see that Mudkip has more worth than you give him credit for.

(End Flashback)

Cyndaquil: (terrified) Oh my god... that must've been what he heard! I technically DID say that stuff, he just misheard! But how can I prove that?

Spheal: That explains it. And hey, this show has cameras everywhere! I'm sure it captured the whole scene.

Cyndaquil: I doubt Raichu will give me the footage if I ask him though.

Spheal: True. How about you just don't ask then? (Laughs a little) There's a control room in Raichu's corridors. I bet Psyduck could take you there!

Psyduck: (pops up) Yipee! I heard somebody say my time! TIME FOR AN ADVENTURE!!! (Grabs Cyndaquil and runs off as Spheal waves bye)

Raichu: (announcing) AND WITH THAT THE FIRST ROUND IS OVER! ONTO ROUND TWO! (The semi final matches begin and it is Chespin vs Snivy and Charmander vs Buizel)

Chespin: (readies his sword) Finally! I've been waiting for this!

Snivy: Ha! Your smug face is just going to make your loss even more humiliating. (The two clash swords)

Chespin: GRRR. HA! This is for Chikorita! (Hits Snivy back)

Snivy: Hmph. Well this is for Roserade (hits Chespin back).

Chespin: Woah, for Roserade? I didn't know-

Snivy: Oh shut up! I meant because she gave me a second chance here!

Chespin: Yeah a second chance you didn't deserve. (The two duel a bit until Snivy knocks Chespin's sword out of his hand) Agh! Crap!

Snivy: (points his sword) Ahahaha! Any last words before you disappoint your stupid girlfriend?

Chespin: (enraged) OH DONT YOU INSULT CHIKORITA LIKE THAT!!! GRAHHH!!! (Lunges himself at Snivy, tackles him off the platform and they both splash into the water)

Raichu: (announcing) WOAH! Snivy and Chespin take a dive, so I guess they are both out!

(In confessional)
Chespin: That felt SO GOOD! I wish we landed on the hard ground though. That way I maybe coulda slapped the shit out of him and maybe even knock out a tooth or two (laughs)
(End)

Raichu: (announcing) So I guess that means Buizel and Charmander, your match has been upgraded from semifinal to final! Aka this is for the immunity win?

Charmander: Seriously? (Grins) Oh yeah!

Buizel: Man Chespin sure can be crazy. (Charmander slashes at him and Buizel dodges) Woah!

Charmander: Dammit!

Buizel: Sorry Charmander, but I've got god like reflexes!

Charmander: Oh really? Well where were they when Bellossom knocked you down heh? (The two collide with more slashes)

Buizel: Alright, enough messing around! I'm ending this! (Lands a hit on Charmander and then pushes Charmander off) YES!!

Raichu: (announcing) AND BUIZEL WINS!!!

Buizel: Booyah! That's right! Champion duelist right here!

Buneary: (clapping) Woo hoo! Great job Buizel!

(In confessional)
Buneary: I'm very happy Buizel won immunity since Bellossom was probably gonna target him... but now I just hope I win too or else...
(End)

(On the beach)

Sawk: (high fives Buizel) Welcome to the winners club. Congrats.

Buizel: Ha, thanks man!

Sawk: Pachirisu are you gonna join us here next then?

Pachirisu: Ugh, yeah! You bet your ass I will be! I don't care what weapon it is, I'm finding it FIRST this time!

Raichu: (announcing) I hate to break it to you Pachirisu... but this next round doesn't have the finding weapons portion!

Mudkip: Huh? Wait what?

Raichu; That's right! But that's because with sixteen of your left, you ALL will get to compete! It will still be a bracket of eight though because you will all be competing in pairs! And if just one of you falls off, the other team wins and you both lose! The two members of the winning duo will get immunity.

(In confessional)
Pachirisu: Are you kidding me!? So now I have to rely on my partner not screwing things up for me. Dammit this is supposed to be merge! My merit and my merit only should decide my fate!
(End)

Sobble: I call working with Cubchoo!

Cubchoo: Are you sure? (Sobble nods) Ah okay, let's do it then!

Raichu: Choose? No, no, no, I never said you got to choose. Everyone please draw a colored ball from Fuecoco to decide your pairs.

Fuecoco: (shakes the box) Right over here everyone! (Everyone draws their color)

Cubchoo: Guess we should've seen that coming... Oh well...

Fennekin: Please don't stick me with Litten.

Chespin: And dont stick me with Snivy... (pulls a green ball and sees Snivy has one too) OH COME ON!!!

Snivy: Jeez, calm down. Can't you just put our differences aside so we can win immunity?

Chespin: (smirks) On second thought, this is the perfect pairing. Snivy you are so screwed!

(In confessional)
Snivy: Ugh! He's just gonna tank the challenge on purpose! That asshole!
(End)

Alcremie: Aww, Meowstic we are together! It's like we're meant to be hehe!

Fennekin: Hey Cubchoo, looks like we're partners. Sobble who'd you get?

Sobble: Um I'm not sure... who has orange? (Looks around) Uh oh...

Fennekin: What do you mean uh oh- (sees Litten with an orange ball) Oh dammit!

Litten: (walks up to Sobble) Hey, guess we're partners.

Sobble: EEP! DONT HURT ME!

Litten: Don't hurt you? Oh please I'm not gonna- I mean, just don't fall off and it'll all be fine. I'm not about to get wet here.

(In confessional)
Litten: Of course Raichu finds a way to make me participate here! UGH! Whatever. I'm NOT falling off this platform, no matter what!
(End)

Raichu: Okay, now that we are all partnered up we can finally-

Buneary: Um Raichu. I don't have a partner!

Raichu: What!? How is that possible? Sure you do.

Buneary: Yeah no, nobody else has pink here.

Fuecoco: (shakes the box and here's a noise) Huh? (Picks out the ball) Oh lookie we have one left!

Raichu: Okay who didn't take a ball?

Spheal: Oh, um, it was Cyndaquil. He's not here.

Raichu: WHAT!? Well I'm not about to wait around for him. Buneary you can take Fuecoco as a partner.

Fuecoco: Yay another challenge for Fuecoco!

Buneary: What!? Hey wait, can't I have Buizel go again with me this time?

Buizel: Yeah I'll go again!

Raichu: Nope. What I say goes. Now everyone take your marks!

(In Raichu's headquarters)

Cyndaquil: Psyduck are you sure you know where you're going?

Psyduck: Positive! Just unlike the last three times I said I was positive. This is the real positive one I can feel it! (They enter a room where the Pichu Twins are watching something on the screens)

Pichu's: (singing) SIXTEEN! STARTING TO FIND MY WAY! GOTTA NEW J- (they notice Psyduck) AGHHH!!!

Psyduck: AGHHH!!! (Pauses) Hi-lo! Whatcha doing in here?

Pichuette: Um... nothing?

Pichu: Don't worry sis, it's just Psyduck, not Uncle Raichu.

Psyduck: Wait a minute! Didn't Raichu say no watching this show until you're older!

Pichu: What? Pfft, no, that was um... a different show.

Psyduck: Ohhhh. Okay my bad.

Pichuette: If anyone asks, we were never here! Oh and we never taped over show footage either! (The Pichu Twins scurry off)

Psyduck: Whoops. Sorry about that. Now what are we doing here again?

Cyndaquil: You were gonna help me find the footage of what really happened during that conversation between me and Charmander.

Psyduck: Oh right! Raichu likes to print a hard copy of each episode for himself. Let me see if I can find it.

Cyndaquil: Really? That'd be great Psyduck! Thank you!

Psyduck: Yup! Now you just find a video camera to play it on or something.

Cyndaquil: Um... from where?

Psyduck: (rips a camera out from the wall) Here let's just use this one!

(Back at the challenge; the results of the first round of duels are shown. Chespin tackles Snivy off, giving Fennekin and Cubchoo a quick win. Pachirisu and Charmander beat out Buneary and Fuecoco. Bellossom and Spheal beat Mudkip and Sprigatito. And finally Litten and Sobble beat Alcremie and Meowstic)

Raichu: Impressive stuff from everyone! Well, except Chepsin and Snivy. Onto the second round!

(In confessional)
Charmander: Thank god I got paired up with Pachirisu. We are totally dominating here!
(End)

Pachirisu: Follow my lead Charmander!

Cubchoo: (dodging swings) Woah! Agh!

Fennekin: Stay strong Cubchoo. HIYAAA!!! (Charges at Pachirisu)

Pachirisu: Wow Fennekin, you've got a lot of fight huh? Too bad you're only as strong as your weakest link. Go Charmander!

Charmander: And... BAM!!! (Smacks Cubchoo off)

Cubchoo: AGHHH!!! (Falls in the water)

(On the other platform)

Litten: Sobble listen to me. Drop the stick and go invisible!

Sobble: Agh! B-But what if Raichu penalizes me for cheating?

Litten: It's not cheating, and if it was, it's only cheating if you get caught.

Raichu: (announcing) It's not cheating. Do as you please Sobble! (Litten gets hit back by Spheal and Bellossom)

Spheal: Ha-ha! Take that!

Bellossom: Now let's finish him off!

Litten: (gets up) Oh hell no. I'm NOT going down into the water! (Crazily charges at them and knocks them both off)

(In confessional)
Spheal: Woah. Litten sure is a beast whenever falling in water is at play. (Laughs)
(End)

Sobble: Huh? We won?

Raichu: YES YOU DID! TIME FOR THE FINAL MATCH NOW!!!

(On the platforms)

Pachirisu: Alright, you know the plan, just go for Sobble.

Charmander: Got it. Duh.

Sobble: AGHH! They're coming for me!

Litten: Go invisible!

Sobble: But then they'll just come at you! Do you wanna get hit off?

Litten: No, but I also wanna win this thing! Now do it! (Sobble goes invisible and drops her stick)

Pachirisu: Ugh! Seriously? Where'd she go.

Charmander: (shrugs) Whelp. Sorry Litten. Gotta take you down.

Litten: Charmander, buddy, let me have this win and- (Charmander hits him back and Litten hangs from the edge) OWW! WHAT THE HECK!!

Charmander: Dude it's a challenge. You know that. (Starts to pry Litten's grip off)

Litten: Grrr... I am NOT falling here! (Swings himself up and goes to hit Charmander off but Pachirisu blocks) Dammit!

Pachirisu: Nice try! (Litten retreats) Get him!

Charmander: Time for my POWER SWING!!! (Suddenly trips over "nothing" and just falls off the platform) AGHH!!!

Pachirisu: What the heck!? Are you serious?

Litten: Nice one Sobble!

Sobble: (appears) Th-thanks!

Raichu: (announcing) LITTEN AND SOBBLE BOTH WIN IMMUNITY!!!

(On the beach)

Cubchoo: Way to go Sobble!

Fennekin: (upset a bit) Yeah but because of you Litten is safe...

Sobble: Oh I'm sorry-

Fennekin: No don't be. It's fine. I shouldn't have said that.

Raichu: Okay everyone gather round! Here's the dealeo. This last round will only have two participants.

Buneary: What!? Seriously? Changing the rules as you go?

Sprigatito: You say that like he doesn't do this all the time...

Raichu: Yeah, what she said. Anyways, there are two Sirfetch'd leak spears in the assortment of random goods. The two to find those will have a joust duel and the winner gets the last immunity! NOW GOOO!!!

Mudkip: Agh! Hurry, hurry!

(In confessional)
Snivy: My chances of winning immunity are awfully slim now... ugh. I've got to start thinking of a plan because I'll be at risk for elimination for sure now!
(End)

Snivy: (walks over to the four winners) Hey there-

Sawk: Ugh, what do you want Snivy?

Snivy: Nothing. Just came to make a mere suggestion.

Buizel: What? For us to not vote you?

Snivy: Well... yeah. Think about it. You can vote me whenever you want, but this may be your only chance to eliminate some real threats before it's too late, you know?

(In confessional)
Sawk: (thinking) I do dislike Snivy... but he makes a really good point here. Hmm...
(End)

(In Raichu's headquarters)

Psyduck: Here you go Cyndaquil! All finished! (Holds up a CD and gives it to him)

Cyndaquil: And you're sure this has the footage I need?

Psyduck: Yup-de-do! Is a Pikachu blue? (Shows the footage to him)

Cyndaquil: Um... Pikachu aren't- nevermind. Thanks again! (Runs off)

(In confessional)
Cyndaquil: This is just what I need to get Mudkip to forgive me! Truthfully I'm so relieved to know this was all a big misunderstanding.
(End)

(At the junk pile)

Alcremie: Nope, nothing over here- WOAH (stuff collapses on her)

Meowstic: Agh! Alcremie! (Goes to help her)

Sprigatito: Come out leak, wherever you are...

Mudkip: Okay where the heck is this Sitfetch'd leak! It should be big and easy to spot!

Fennekin: EEEEE YESSS!!! Found it!

Raichu: And Fennekin finds the first leak lance! Keep searching the rest of you.

Charmander: Ugh come on, I really need this win. (Pauses) Does anyone hear yelling?

Cyndaquil: (running from in the distance) MUDKIP!!! MUDKIP IVE GOT PROOF!!!

Mudkip: What the heck is he- (yelling) I HEARD ENOUGH FROM YOU ALREADY! PLEASE JUST- (Spheal taps him)

Spheal: Mudkip wait! Just listen to him here.

Cyndaquil: (yelling) I have proof of what really happened! On what you really heard me saying!

Charmander: Wait what?

(In confessional)
Charmander: This could be bad. I need Mudkip to stay mad at Cyndaquil so he doesn't target me and I keep Cyndaquil as an ally. Showing him that footage could ruin EVERYTHING!!! (Sighs) Sorry Cyndaquil, but a lizard's gotta do what a lizard's gotta do.
(End)

Cyndaquil: (running up) Just watch what I have on this CD and it'll clear everything- (runs by Charmander who sticks his leg out to trip Cyndaquil. He falls in slow motion and the CD hits big rocks on the beach and shatters) NOOOO!!!

Charmander: (poorly acting) Whoops. My bad.

Cyndaquil: Agh! (Angry) Charmander you did that on purpose, didn't you!? (Charmander shrugs) I hope you are happy looking in the mirror and seeing how awful you are now!

Charmander: Oh whatever. Excuse me I've got a challenge to complete. (Walks off as Mudkip approaches Cyndaquil)

Mudkip: Woah...

Cyndaquil: Mudkip... I'm so sorry. Ugh, I had footage of what really happened. You heard me parroting what Charmander was saying to make him realize how mean he sounded. I swear that's what happened please believe- (Mudkip hugs him) Huh?

Mudkip: Thank you Cyndaquil. I believe you. I'm sorry for doubting your friendship.

Cyndaquil: What? Wh-why? You believe me now?

Mudkip: I mean that is kinda a ridiculous story... but I KNOW you are telling the truth. If that CD didn't prove anything, Charmander wouldn't have made you break it. (To Charmander) You hear that!? Your actions still got you caught red handed!

Cyndaquil: Y-yeah! Right! And Mudkip... I'm sorry for trying to train you in the mornings. I just wanted to get Charmander to see you as I see you.

Mudkip: Hey it's okay. You were looking out for me and I appreciate that. You're a great friend! (They hug again)

Spheal: AWWWW!!! (They look at him) Dammit another moment ruined by me... whoops-

Buneary: I FOUND IT! (Holds up a leak lance)

Raichu: ABOUT TIME! Looks like we've got ourselves a duel between Fennekin and Buneary for immunity!

(On the platforms)

Buneary: Whelp, guess only one of us can win here. No hard feelings right?

Fennekin: Oh of course not! But I'm not losing this, I hope you know that. (The two begin fencing with the lances) Agh! This is tricky.

Buneary: Tell me about it. These are impossible to hold!

Buizel: (yelling) BUNEARYYYY!!! YOU GOTTA JOUST IT! HOLD IT LONGWAYS LIKE A BATTERING RAM!!!

Buneary: Huh? Like this? (Holds it differently and Fennekin does the same)

Fennekin: AGHHH!!! (The two charge at each other and both hit each other. Fennekin falls on the edge of the platform while Buneary falls off and into the water)

Raichu: (announcing) FENNEKIN WINS!!!

Fennekin: Oh yes, yes, yes!!! TAKE THAT LITTEN!!!

(In confessional)
Fennekin: I bet Litten and Charmander thought I'd be easily voted off tonight but NOPE! Not today! (Smiles) This win feels extra good!
(End)

Raichu: (announcing) And with that the challenge is over and we'll head to elimination! See you guys there in fifteen minutes, alright!?

Charmander: (approaches Cyndaquil and Mudkip) Hey guys, look I wanted to say I'm sorry. Can we still vote together?

Mudkip: Are you kidding me? Absolutely NOT!

Cyndaquil: Yeah. I think I've worked with you long enough Charmander. (Walks off)

Charmander: Crap...

(In confessional)
Charmander: Whelp I'm gonna have to vote for people who actually have a chance at going home. I did hear some people talking stuff over about voting off threats so... yeah I think I've got a good idea on who I should vote tonight.
(End)

(Elsewhere)

Buizel: Aw you almost had that! Good effort though.

Buneary: (sighs) Thanks, but now with you immune, Bellossom is totally gonna get people to vote for me!

Bellossom: (walks up) Um excuse me? Yeah no, I'm not doing that. Not that I owe you an explanation here.

Buneary: Wait really?

Bellossom: I told you I was voting for Snivy before, and that's what I'm sticking to. (Walks off)

Buizel: Ugh, does she really expect us to believe her? She could easily be lying!

Buneary: I mean even if she was... isn't that what we did before? (They both frown at each other).

(At the elimination ceremony)

Raichu: Welcome one and all to our biggest merge elimination ceremony EVER! Who's excited? (There is silence) Really? Nobody? Eesh.

Koffing: (walks up) Here are the damn pokepuffs Raichu. (Hands him a tray with pokepuffs cut)

Raichu: Erm, are these cut in half?

Koffing: Yup. I'm not wasting my time making a double batch. (Floats off)

Raichu: Damn, these will be a lot harder to throw... (turns to the group) Anyways, congrats to our immunity winners! Sawk, Buizel, Litten, Sobble and Fennekin! You five are safe and moving on to the top sixteen! But sadly two of the rest of you are about to become the first two merge boots. Time to vote to decide who that is!

Spheal: Hey wait a second! Don't you wanna go over there rules for voting here again?

Raichu: No not really. The two campers with the most votes get eliminated, blah, blah, blah. Just go vote!

(In voting confessional)
Mudkip: I think it's obvious who I'm voting. (Votes Charmander) This is for causing both Cyndaquil and I to doubt our friendship with each other! I should've known you were the problem all along!
(End)

(In voting confessional)
Pachirisu: Hmm, I've got to play this smart. (Makes her vote) Sorry but you are the biggest threat here.
(End)

(In voting confessional)
Buizel: If Bellossom is targeting Buneary, we need to make sure we target someone who others are voting for today!
(End)

(In voting confessional)
Chespin: Snivy, it's time for you to get outta here! (Votes him) You weaseled your way this far and your elimination is way overdue!
(End)

Raichu: (looking over the votes) Wow. Interesting! Who'd a thought!

Meowstic: Ugh, just reveal them already!

Alcremie: Yeah stop playing games with us! We're nervous enough already!

Sawk: Heh, well not all of us are. (They glare at him) Eesh, sorry.

Fennekin: (to Sobble) At least we have nothing to worry about, right? (Sobble doesn't respond) Sobble?

Sobble: (shaking nervously) Agh please let Cubchoo be safe! (Fennekin just smiles)

Raichu: Okay, winners here are your pokepuffs, or rather your half of a pokepuff. (Throws pokepuffs to Sawk, Buizel, Litten, Sobble and Fennekin) Now then... the next player who is safe is...

(The camera dramatically pans over the remaining contestants)

Raichu: Spheal!

Spheal: Woo hoo! Alright! (Catches his pokepuff)

Raichu: (throws pokepuffs as he calls their names) Chespin, Cubchoo, Mudkip, Sprigatito, Meowstic and Alcremie! Also safe are Bellossom and Buneary!

Buneary: Phew.

Raichu: That leaves us with four campers left. Snivy, Charmander, Cyndaquil and Pachirisu!

Snivy: (rolls eyes) Ugh.

Pachirisu: I figured as much. (Cyndaquil and Charmander look at each other uneasily)

Raichu: The next Pokémon who is safe is... (takes a dramatic pause) Charmander!

Charmander: Oh yeah! (Catches his pokepuff)

Raichu: And the final pokepuff goes to...

(The camera zooms in on the bottom three who all look a little worried)

Raichu: ...Snivy. (Raichu throws him the pokepuff and he smiles)

Chespin: OH HELL NO! ARE YOU SHITTING ME!? (Snivy's grin gets larger)

(In confessional)
Buizel: Snivy is a shady dude, but when it comes to being a threat on this show, nobody has Cyndaquil beat. Sorry dude, but you always make it far. Can't risk you going all the way again. (Pauses) Not that nobody should go all the way twice. Hint hint, me! I should be allowed to, this is a different show after all heh.
(End)

(In confessional)
Spheal: I've got to play smart if I want to win. I knew I had to vote Pachirisu tonight. She's just so good at challenges! In fact she has the best track record at merge challenges that if we didn't vote her today we may not ever have gotten another chance.
(End)

Sawk: Pachirisu... damn this really sucks. I'm sorry.

Pachirisu: (sighs) It's alright. I low key felt it coming. Best of luck to you Sawk, you got this! (Fist bumps him)

Meowstic: Hey Pachirisu... look I'm sor-

Pachirisu: UP-UP! Nope! None of that. We're all good. Just be yourself and make sure you treat Alcremie right! (Alcremie blushes as she grabs Meowstic's hand)

Alcremie: (embarrassed) Th-Thank you. I'm sure he will heh.

Mudkip: (runs up to Cyndaquil) NOOOO!!! Cyndaquil!

Cyndaquil: I know, I know. (Sighs) This stinks.

Mudkip: We just made up! What are the chances?

Raichu: (butting in) On this show? I'd say pretty good. (Chuckles)

Mudkip: Just what am I supposed to do now? There's no way I can do this without you...

Cyndaquil: Hey, don't say that Mudkip. You are talented, smart, and so incredibly resourceful. If I were a betting man, I'd bet on you going all the way! And I'd say that even if you weren't my best friend!

Mudkip: Aww really?

Cyndaquil: Of course. Besides, you've been doing well on your own these past few days anyways, so I know you can do it!

Litten: (walks up) Sorry to see you go Cyndaquil. We'll miss you dude.

Cyndaquil: Good luck. (Walks over to Charmander) Whelp, Charmander I've got two things to say to you.

Charmander: Go on.

Cyndaquil: First, I hope you get everything karma owes you, and second... Watch out for Mudkip. Because he's gonna put up a fight better than even I could! (Charmander rolls his eyes and Mudkip smiles)

Mudkip: You bet I will!

Raichu: Alright, Pachirisu, Cyndaquil, I believe you two have a date with a big old toilet! (Everyone waves goodbye to them)

(By the toilet)

Raichu: Guess you two were the biggest threats when it comes to challenges... so makes sense. Any regrets?

Pachirisu: Nope! I'm not one to go back and wish I played differently anyways!

Cyndaquil: Good answer! Though I guess I'd say- (Raichu presses the flush button) WOAH! AGHHHH!!! (He and Pachirisu get flushed)

Raichu: Whoops! Sorry, don't care! (To the camera) And with that, season one's winner and season two's runner-up have been eliminated! How will Mudkip fare without Cyndaquil, and can he stand up to Charmander? Will Sawk's new conflict with the newly formed couple of Meowstic and Alcremie cause issues for him? And finally, will Litten and Fennekin ever have a talk with each other? I mean, they are both in the spa hotel tonight so maybe, just maybe, something will happen. Stay tuned to find out! Next time, on Total Drama Pokemon All Stars!
