Previously on The Amazing Race Pokémon...
Twelve teams set out on a once in a lifetime journey in a race around worlds.
The teams were shown running to the area of the starting line task.
Trev & Mac guessed unluckily.
"You're starting the leg with the least amount of money," said Ryder.
At Lumiose, the housemaids risked a shortcut.
"Let's go to the shortcut," said Kelly to Lilly. "It will benefit us."
Lilly replied, "I don't think that's a good idea."
Putting them with the teams from the second flight.
Lilly & Kelly were shown running and got on the subway in the nick of time.
"That was close," said Lilly.
Along the leg, agreements were made.
Maverick said, "If we win the passes, and if you finish in the top three for the first two legs, we'll give you the pass on the third leg."
Natt said, "Deal, same applies to us."
"So in this alliance," started Lester. "Let's not yield or U-turn each other as much as possible."
At the roadblock, Iris finished first.
"I think I found it," said Iris.
But in an intense footrace, Mollie & Maverick managed to beat Iris & Napoleon.
Ryder said, "Mollie & Maverick, you are team number one. Iris & Napoleon, you are team number two. Congratulations."
The last few teams fought for survival.
Dranoel said in a British accent, "Run or we're done."
Scenes of the Lea & Glace, Nick & Lester, and Kaulthon & Dranoel running were shown.
And in the end, the gym leaders couldn't catch up.
Ryder said, "Kaulthon & Dranoel... you are the last team to arrive."
But were spared elimination in an unexpected twist.
Kaulthon said in a British accent, "Cousin, we aren't eliminated yet!"
Twelve teams remain, who will be eliminated... next?
-Lost Hotel-
6:30 PM
Kaulthon & Dranoel: Gym Leaders
The two arrived at the hotel. They saw a sheet of paper by the entrance with the times 8:00 AM, 8:45 AM, and 9:30 AM. Four teams' names were written below the 8:00 AM and 8:30 AM. Three were written below the last time slot.
(Remember for the whole race that these two speak with a British accent, so that I won't have to repeat it every single time they say something.)
"Tomorrow's a new day," said Dranoel.
"Kaulthon & Dranoel are getting some rest and will prepare to make a comeback," said Kaulthon.
Dranoel wrote their name on the last blank below the 9:30 AM time slot. Afterwards, the two left the area. The camera zoomed in to the time departure sheet. Here's what's written:
8:00 AM
1. Nap & Iris
2. Mollie & Maverick
3. Harv & Claire
4. Harl / Natt
8:45 AM
1. Lilly & Kelly
2. Carol & Giselle
3. Ma + Benjiboy
4. Cara & JC
9:30 AM
1. Mac / Trev
2. Lester / Nick
3. Glace / Lea
4. Kaulthon / Dranoel
Later that night...
Nick & Lester: Band Mates
Lea & Glace: Twin Athletes
Carol & Giselle: Comrades
Trev & Mac: Childhood Friends
Cara & Janelle: Best Friends
The alliance, Lester especially, has been looking for the gym leaders.
"Have you found them?" Lester asked Nick, who just came back after one round of looking for the gym leaders.
Nick shook his head and said, "Nope."
Carol said, "They probably left us already. Neither of them look like active allies."
Lester said, "Okay, let's just begin. So we all know that none of us got the express passes. Any idea on who we should U-turn?"
Lea said, "I think it's too early to tell."
"I agree," said Glace.
"We'll know too after some time," said Trev.
"None of us have made enemies yet," said Mac.
Giselle said, "I wanna to U-turn the pink puffs."
"Hey!" Cara said.
"Ouch!" reacted Janelle.
"I'm so sorry about Giselle," said Carol to Cara & Janelle. "I promise to stop her from putting your faces on any yield or U-turn board."
"It's all right," said Janelle. "I think she didn't mean to."
Carol & Giselle were about to leave so that Giselle wouldn't cause anymore trouble, but Lilly & Kelly suddenly came.
Lilly & Kelly: Housemaids
Kelly said, "Hi guys, good evening! We're inviting all of you to our hotel room. Tomorrow's Lilly's birthday and I hope everybody will be there to join us. You can come in by ten. See you there!"
The two were about to leave.
Lester asked them, "Have you seen the dragons?"
"They're already sleeping in their hotel room," said Kelly with a frown.
"Oh," said Glace.
Kelly said, "So... see you there!"
The two left the scene. The ten continued their talk.
"So like what we're saying earlier..." said Lester.
"We can get rid of..." said Giselle.
Carol covered Giselle's mouth.
Carol said, "Sorry about this, Lester. May we leave now?"
Lester nodded and Carol pulled Giselle out of the area.
"We can all talk about this later in the race," said Trev.
Lester said, "Nick, can you please... Has anybody seen Nick?"
Glace said, "Coincidentally, my sister has disappeared.
Glace rolled her eyes while Lester did a facepalm.
"So... that's it for now. See you all later," said Lester.
Trev & Mac and Cara & Janelle went to different directions. Glace was still talking to Lester.
"Let's search for them together," said Glace.
"I'll go this way, you go that way," said Lester.
Glace nodded and the two went to different directions to search for both of their teammates.
A few hours later...
Mollie & Maverick: Married Couple
Harl & Natt: Best Buddies
The two teams were shown chatting near the entrance of Lilly & Kelly's hotel room.
"Can we have it? Pretty pretty please?" Harl asked.
"But you guys finished fourth," said Mollie.
The two were shown getting inside the housemaids' hotel room.
Some moments after...
Iris & Napoleon: Engaged Literati
Harv & Clairene: Dating
Outside the housemaids' room, the two were shown chatting.
Napoleon ended in a gloomy tone, "... And that's how we lost both express passes."
Harv patted Napoleon at the back and said, "There there."
The two went inside the housemaids' room.
Some more moments later...
Carol & Giselle: Comrades
The two were approaching the housemaids' room.
"I'm so excited to party!" said Giselle.
The two were about to go inside the room. Carol saw Cara & Janelle coming.
Carol said, "I gotta get something inside our room."
"Okay," said Giselle. "I'll just be here."
Giselle went inside the room while Carol approached Cara & Janelle, who were both approaching Lilly & Kelly's room.
Cara & Janelle: Best Friends
Carol approached the two as she started to fake crying.
"I'm so sorry about Giselle a while ago," said Carol sincerely.
"It's okay," said Janelle.
"I'm pretty sure you'll stop her from doing that to us," added Cara.
"Yeah," said Carol. "But she probably ruined the part of me wanting to be friends with you."
"No she didn't," said Cara with a smile.
"We can still be friends!" said Janelle.
Cara added, "After all, we're all pink."
"Really? Thanks girls!" said Carol.
The two did a group hug before entering the housemaids' room.
Moments later...
Ben & Romana: Models
"No, Ma!" said Ben. "If you had waited for me patiently, then you wouldn't have wrinkles and still be young, like me, your son Benjiboy."
"Zip it shut, Benjiboy," said Romana.
The two went inside the housemaids' room.
More moments later...
Trev & Mac: Childhood Friends
The two were entering the housemaids' room.
Mac said to the camera, " We were looking for Nick & Lester, but we couldn't find them."
Trev added, "But I told Mac that those two will also come."
Moments after...
Lea and Lester met in front of the housemaids' room.
"I can't find them," said Glace.
"Don't worry," said Lester. "They'll show up soon."
The two went inside the housemaids' room.
-Route 16-
The night was very starry. Near a patch of grass, two Pokémons were lying down chatting and stargazing.
"Lea, I enjoy watching the stars with you," said Nick.
"Me too, Nick," said Lea.
"They can have their fun while we can have our time together."
"No Lester, no sister, just you and me, It's fun."
The cameramon was filming them without their knowledge, since they didn't know that a cameramon had followed them in the first place.
-Lost Hotel-
Back at the housemaids' hotel room, the twenty Pokémons continued celebrating Lilly's small birthday party.
"But we can't drink," said Harv.
"We bought zero alcohol for you guys," said Kelly. "I just don't know who has it."
"It's right here!" said Harl, raising the bottle.
Harl gave Kelly the drink and Kelly gave Harv & Clairene the drink.
Cara said happily, "Why are you both so cute?"
Cara pinched both of their cheeks.
"They're super cute!" said Janelle as she followed Cara pinching the other cheeks of those two.
Most of the party scene was edited out. The team members were only shown raising their glasses up and singing a happy birthday song to Lilly. Kelly bought her a birthday cake and candles, so that she can blow the candles.
-Route 16-
The two were sleeping on the grass. They had a little decimeter distance in between them. A few minutes later, Nick woke up.
"Lea, Lea," Nick called. "Wake up! We have to go back to our rooms. It's three-thirty right now and your sister could be looking for you."
Lea woke up soon after. Nick guided her to her room.
-Lost Hotel-
The two arrived at the twins' hotel room.
Lea said groggily, "Where's Glace?"
"I don't know," replied Nick. "Maybe she'll be back by tomorrow morning."
"Nick, it's already morning, and she was never out this late before dawn."
"Well, then we can search for her tomorrow."
"I'm worried about my sister right now. I can't just leave her alone early in the morning."
"We can do it later. You gotta get some sleep now."
"No, I want to find my sister and I want to get her back with me."
"Can we please just do it later? I'm tired too you know."
"No, I'm also very tired but I have to find my sister. She could be in trouble if I don't save her."
"Okay okay fine. Where should we look for her?"
"Let's ask the guards at the lobby."
The two got to the lobby.
Nick asked the Klefki at the counter, "Have you seen a Glaceon leave the hotel?"
The Klefki replied, "I've never seen one in real life before."
Lea told Nick, "How about Lilly & Kelly's room?"
The two left for that room. They knocked on Lilly & Kelly's door for several minutes.
"Plan B," said Nick.
The two went back to the lobby. They begged the Klefki to open that door for them. They lied that they got locked out of their room. After several minutes, the Klefki called a Carbink to stay guard at the lobby's counter. The Klefki followed them to the room's door. The Klefki unlocked the door and went back to the lobby. Lea and Nick saw sixteen Pokémons sleeping on the floor and on the beds.
"There's Glace!" whispered Lea.
Lea tried pulling Glace out by the tail, but Giselle was blocking the way.
"Uh... Nick, a little help here," said Lea softly.
Nick carried Glace on his back as he hopped over Giselle.
"Lemme get Lester out of here too," said Nick.
After Nick had gotten Lester out of the room, Lea and Nick both dragged their respective partners to their respective rooms. Nick was dragging Lester by the left leg while Lea dragged Glace by the tail. The two walked slowly and groggily while dragging their respective partners to their respective rooms. When the two were about to enter their respective rooms, they smiled at each other.
Nick said, "See you later, Sweetcake."
Lea replied, "Ciao for now, Pumpkin Pie."
The two resumed their rests after they have both entered their respective rooms with their respective partners.
