Previously on The Amazing Race Pokémon...

Seven teams raced from the Unova Region to the New Super Mario Brothers U Worlds.

Teams had problems with their flights.

"We're in a race, we have to get to Meringue Clouds as soon as we can," said Ralph.

"The people in that flight, the pilot, the whole crew, everyone there left us!" said Nadine.

Bill & Charles went to a computer station, and found one of the best flights available.

Charles said, "A direct flight to Meringue Clouds," Charles said.

Bill said, "Okay, book it."

Giving them their first first-place win.

"You are team number... team number ONE!" Ryder said.

The four teams that were almost half a day ahead of the last three teams... fell behind due to unlucky flight situations and decisions.

"This one has three connections," said the Amaura.

The Xatu said, "Just find your connections there, I think any of them would do."

At the junction, Ralph disagreed with Raffy's opinion to take the fast forward.

Raffy said, "It could be something that can help us."

Ralph said, "We won't be promised a second chance if we fail the fast forward."

At the roadblock, Jenna's performance made her and Vic fall behind.

"I'm gonna cry," Jenna said.

"Just a little more effort honey," Vic said.

But in a neck-and-neck fight for last place, the two teams with the highest averages fight it out.

"We can not screw up along the way," reminded Vic.

And the twins... were sent home.

Ryder continued, "And I'm sorry to tell you... that you have been eliminated from the race."

Six teams remain, who will be eliminated... next?

This is Acorn Academy. Situated on top of the famous tree in Acorn Plains, it is an academy populated with Waddlewings. Built less than fifty years ago, this academy is the eighth pit stop... in a race around worlds. Teams arrived here at the end of the last leg for a mandatory rest period. Can Bill & Charles maintain their good leading momentum? And as half of the alliance went home, will Diana & Cindy make it to the final three without their friends? Bill & Charles, who arrived first at 11:16 AM, will depart... at 11:16 PM.

Bill & Charles; 1st to depart – 11:16 PM

Bill ripped open the envelope and read the clue.

Bill read, "Fly to the racing capital of the Mushroom Kingdom, Kart Kapital."

"Teams must now fly to the racing capital of the Mushroom Kingdom... known as Kart Kapital. Once there, they must make their way to Toad's Tires. Using one of the karts provided, teams must deliver a dozen tires to a new course known as Wii U Mario Circuit. Once they have delivered the tires in perfect condition, they will receive their next clue."

"You have two hundred and fifty coins for this leg of the race," read Bill.

Charles showed their pouch of coins to the camera.

Charles said, "We finally get to visit Mario Kart Land."

The two got in a cab and are now on their way to Meringue Clouds's airport.

Annie & Baron; 2nd to depart – 1:23 AM

Annie ripped open the envelope and read the clue.

Annie read, "Fly to the racing capital of the Mushroom Kingdom."

"Oh good," said Baron.

Henry & Maria; 3rd to depart – 1:40 AM

Henry read, "You have two hundred and fifty coins for this leg of the race."

"So the currency of the Mushroom Kingdom is simply called coins?" said Maria.

"It has to be so," Henry said.

Annie & Baron: Teachers

Henry & Maria: Dating

"If we're the first three teams, then who was eliminated last leg?" wondered Baron.

"Isn't it ironic that the bottom three teams are the first ones here now?" said Maria.

The counter opened. The three teams got on the same flight.

Bill & Charles; 1st on Paratroopa Air 093

Annie & Baron; 2nd on Paratroopa Air 093

Henry & Maria; 3rd on Paratroopa Air 093

"Hey guys," greeted Cindy.

"Hey!" replied Baron. "Who was eliminated yesterday?"

Annie said, "It was not yesterday, we had a thirty-six hour pit stop, right?"

"We still don't know," said Diana.

"I just hope it's not the twins," said Cindy.

Diana said, "I feel pretty sorry for ditching them last leg. We were fighting for last."

Nadine & Archer: Dating

Nadine & Archer; 5th on Paratroopa Air 093

After claiming their tickets, Nadine & Archer went to see the other teams.

"Who was eliminated?" asked Henry.

"It's Vic & Jenna or the twins," replied Archer.

Baron's and Cindy's faces turned sour. Few minutes later, the last team showed up.

Vic & Jenna: Married

Vic & Jenna; 6th on Paratroopa Air 093

"Hey y'all!" greeted Vic.

"Nooooooooooooooo!" cried Cindy.

"Was it non-elimination last leg?" asked Diana.

"Nope, it was tough last night," replied Vic.

"Guess we're on our own now," Diana whispered to Cindy.

Cindy said softly, "So bummed the twins went home last leg."

That night, all the teams boarded the flight.

"All teams are now making their way to Kart Kapital."

The flight landed. Since it was early morning, each team looked for a place where they can sleep.

-Toad's Tires-

8:15 AM

The store opened. The toad watched the teams load the tires to their karts.

Vic & Jenna: Married

"Three, four, five..." counted Vic.

Nadine & Archer: Dating

"That orange kart's ours," said Archer.

Annie & Baron: Teachers

"We're claiming the gray one," announced Baron.

Bill & Charles: Gym Buddies

"We're not wasting our time choosing a color," said Bill.

Charles is carrying four tires each arm. Bill has two on his head and one each on his arms.

"Just throw it in that one," said Bill.

Charles, "We have to arrange it first."

"Shut up! Ignore your OCD."

"But... but..."

"We're just wasting time. C'mon!"

The two left the store in a pink kart.

"Why did you choose this color?" asked Charles.

"Because it's the nearest one," replied Bill.

"But it's pink! Diana & Cindy might've wanted it."

"Never mind. We got first last time, we can get another this time, especially without a fast forward."

Henry & Maria: Dating

"Bill & Charles drove off in a pink kart!?" said Henry.

"We're using this black one, because the cats took our color," said Maria.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"Purple! What a lovely color," said Cindy.

"Now let's put all the tires in here," said Diana.

Vic & Jenna: Married

"It's time to roll," said Vic, with his shades on.

"We're rolling in the green," said Jenna, also with her shades on, as she pats their green kart.

Nadine & Archer: Dating

Nadine said, "That's just ten."

Annie & Baron: Teachers

Annie said, "I guess we're ready."

The teachers left for Wii U Mario Circuit.

Henry & Maria: Dating

"These tires aren't light," said Henry.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"They should've been with us," said Cindy.

"I wish they were here with us... right now," said Diana.

"We're no good when it comes to physical tasks," said Cindy.

Nadine & Archer: Dating

"Now it's twelve," Archer said.

"Let's go!" Nadine said in an excited tone.

Henry & Maria: Dating

"We're halfway through," said Henry.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

Diana said, "Two down, ten more to go."

Henry & Maria: Dating

"You know what?" said Henry.

"What?" replied Maria.

"I'd rather be a big dude driving a pink car rather than falling to the back of the pack again."

There was an awkward silence. Then Maria spoke up.

Maria replied, "You know what?"

"What?" said Henry.

"You have a point."

"I know."

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"We heard them," Diana said.

"And we agree with them, a hundred per cent," Cindy said.

Minutes later...

Henry & Maria: Dating

"Let's do what we're used to doing," said Maria.

"Catching up," said both ghosts in unison.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"We're so screwed right now," Cindy said.

"Cindy, just a few more," Diana said.

Few minutes later, they finished too.

-Wii U Mario Circuit-

The gym buddies delivered the tires and received their next clue from a Shy Guy.

Bill & Charles; Currently in 1st

Bill ripped open the envelope.

Bill read the clue, "Roadblock, who wants to defy the laws of gravity?"

"The race courses in Kart Kapital are for beginners to practice their driving skills. In Wii U Mario Circuit, beginners practice their driving skills... in anti-gravity! In this roadblock, one team member must drive ten laps around this circuit in order to receive their next clue."

"Ho my goodness! The circuit is right beside us and I know what I'm doing," said Bill.

"Hey, it's what I'M doing," said Charles.

"Who says you're doing it?"

"And who says YOU'RE doing it?"

"Rock-paper-scissors."

Charles got paper, while Bill got scissors.

"This roadblock's mine," said Bill.

"You cheated!" said Charles.

"You opened your palm a millisecond after I opened mine. And you call me a cheater?"

"Y... Y..."

"Let's stop wasting time."

Bill went off to change to a racing suit.

Annie & Baron; Currently in 2nd

Vic & Jenna; Currently in 3rd

"I guess it's my turn," said Baron.

"I don't feel good about last leg's roadblock," said Jenna.

"Okay honey, I'm doing this," Vic said.

Bill – on roadblock

"I am ready to race!" said Bill with motivation.

"I should've been doing this," Charles told the camera quietly.

Nadine & Archer; Currently in 4th

"Roadblock, my turn," said Nadine.

"Wait... are you sure you wanna drive?" asked Archer.

"What do you mean?"

"Look behind you. It's not just any task."

"Holy p**s!"

"So you're doing this?"

"No! You do it for now."

Bill – on roadblock

Bill is all ready to go. He is just waiting for Lakitu's signal.

3... 2... 1...

"Go!" shouted Bill in excitement.

Bill dashed through the race course.

Baron – on roadblock

Vic – on roadblock

Moments after, the Lakitu also signaled them to go.

"Woah! This is fun!" said Vic.

"I'm lovin this!" shouted Baron.

Archer – on roadblock

"I'm missing the fun," Archer said.

Once the Lakitu signaled Archer to go, Archer drove the kart with an extreme speed.

Bill – on roadblock (1/10 laps completed)

"How come I never encountered this on TV?" said Bill.

Baron – on roadblock (1/10 laps completed)

Vic – on roadblock (1/10 laps completed)

"Dude it's like a roller coaster!" said Baron.

"Except you're the one controlling it!" said Vic.

They somehow hit each other and spinned around.

"Woah!" said Baron.

'Keep it cool, man!" said Vic.

Archer – on roadblock (1/10 laps completed)

"I finally get to hold an item block!" said Archer.

Henry & Maria; Currently in 5th

"Oh my Arceus! That's scary," Maria reacted as she saw the four team members racing around Mario Circuit.

"So that means I'm doing this, right?" said Henry.

"Go ahead."

"Yes!"

Bill – on roadblock (2/10 laps completed)

"This is like a roller coaster, and it's one of a kind!" said Bill.

Baron – on roadblock (2/10 laps completed)

Vic – on roadblock (2/10 laps completed)

"Lightning, coming up!" announced Archer.

The other three team members never heard him; nevertheless, Archer zapped all three of them.

"Victory!" Archer shouted.

One lap later...

Henry – on roadblock

"It's time to start, before it's too late," Henry said.

Diana & Cindy; Currently in Last

"There's still a detour for us to catch up," said Diana.

Diana ripped open the envelope.

Diana read, "Roadblock, who wants to defy the laws of gravity?"

"I wanna!" Cindy said. "But you need to do this, or else you have to do all the remaining roadblocks."

"That sucks, but I don't wanna do this."

"You sure?"

"Yeah."

"Okay, I'm doing this roadblock."

Archer – on roadblock (4/10 laps completed)

"This is more fun than I have first imagined!" said Archer.

"A lucky seven!" announced Bill.

Bill threw the Bob-omb at them.

"That's nasty!" said Baron.

Archer – on roadblock (5/10 laps completed)

"This is just... cool," said Archer.

At the waiting area, the team members who sat out made a bet.

Nadine said, "My Archer's gonna win the first place."

Jenna said, "Nuh-ah-uh, my Victor honey will catch up to your ugly Archer."

"He's not ugly! He's hot!"

"Technically, he's ugly because he's too hot! Too much of a good thing becomes bad."

"OH YEAH!?"

"I'm placing my bet on Baron," said Annie.

"I think Bill will win," said Maria.

"That's the spirit!" said Charles. "He will win!"

"I think Baron will win, but that's just my random guess," said Diana. "I'm wagering my ten coins on Baron."

"Yeeha!" said Annie, as she lays down her ten coins.

All the other team members who sat out also placed their ten coins out already.

Henry – on roadblock (3/10 laps completed)

"This is actually making me dizzy," said Henry.

"Just a little more," said Archer.

Henry – on roadblock (3/10 laps completed)

"May I propose an idea?" said Bill.

"Let's get Archer together, he's a lap ahead of us now," said Bill.

"I agree," said Vic.

The three drove side by side to get Archer.

Archer – on roadblock (7/10 laps completed)

"Why are there so many bananas?" complained Archer.

Cindy – on roadblock (0/10 laps completed)

"How come I get so many useless bananas?" complained Cindy.

Henry – on roadblock (4/10 laps completed)

"Before I continue, I must take a pit stop," said Henry.

Henry stopped the engine and rested for a while.

Waiting area...

"What the hell?" said Maria. "We're already three laps behind."

Annie said, "Calm down, Maria. I think he's gonna throw up."

"What!? Now how could I calm down after telling me that?"

"Oh wait..."

"Wha..."

"He threw up!"

"You don't have to tell me. I can see it!"

"Why is the vomit glowing with blue aura?"

"He experimented on something with his breakfast this morning."

"Yuck!"

"I know right?"

Baron – on roadblock (7/10 laps completed)

Vic – on roadblock (7/10 laps completed)

"Throw it after we see the blue light," said Vic.

"Not bad," said Bill.

Archer – on roadblock (8/10 laps completed)

Archer got hit by a blue shell after crossing the finish line.

"Are you kidding me?" complained Archer.

Archer's kart spinned after driving through the puddle of vomit.

"This is ridiculous!" said Archer.

Archer saw another blue shell on his side-view mirror.

"Not again," said Archer.

"You've got to be kidding me!" said Archer unhappily.

Waiting area...

"I'm putting five coins on Vic," said Diana.

"Well, you're making a big mistake," said Nadine. "I'm putting ten more coins on Archer."

"I don't have enough money," said Jenna.

"I'm not raising it," said Charles.

"I'm not putting in more money," said Annie.

"I just want my teammate to finish this task quickly," said Maria.

"Yeah right!" said Jenna. "We should be hoping that our teammates finish soon."

"But I'm adding more money for fun, cuz' I believe in my Archer," said Nadine.

Baron – on roadblock (9/10 laps completed)

Archer – on roadblock (9/10 laps completed)

"Holy cr*p, my thirty-five coins," said Nadine.

"I think it's you and your team's," corrected Jenna.

"Grrr..." said Nadine.

Archer – on roadblock (10/10 laps completed)

"It's just Mario Kart rivalry," said Archer. "This can't go personally."

Cindy – on roadblock (3/10 laps completed)

"Neat!" said Cindy, as she got a bullet bill.

Bill – on roadblock (10/10 laps completed)

"At least I got to drive in anti-gravity," said Bill.

Henry – on roadblock (7/10 laps completed)

"This can't get any worse," said Henry, feeling queasy again.

Cindy – on roadblock (4/10 laps completed)

"I lost thirty-five coins."

"How!?"

"I gambled it."

"Oh come on, we can't just blame them for our own loss!"

"For winning first place, I got ourselves sixteen more coins," said Annie to Baron.

"Look at Cheese Land's artwork," said Baron.

"Amazing!"

"Shy Guy Bazaar..."

"I thought we're looking for our clue?"

"Yeah, wait."

"Never mind, I found it."

Annie went towards a nearby cluebox and took a clue. She ripped open the envelope and read it.

Annie & Baron; Currently in 1st

Annie read, "Drive yourselves to Kart Academy, where you will find your next clue."

Baron read the description, "A haunted mansion course with an underwater chamber and a dark garden."

"We don't have time for that."

"Twisted Mansion! That sounds interesting."

Nadine & Archer: Dating

"Baron's over there," said Archer.

"And so is the cluebox," said Nadine.

Nadine & Archer; Currently in 2nd

Nadine read, "Drive yourselves to Kart Academy, where you will find your next clue."

Bill & Charles: Gym Buddies

"Sweet Sweet Canyon, it reminds me of Sugar Rush!" said Bill.

"You're right! I miss playing in the arcade back home," reminisced Charles.

"I can see our cluebox."

"Where?"

"Behind you."

The two walked towards the cluebox. Bill took a clue and ripped open its envelope.

Bill & Charles; Currently in 3rd

Bill read, "Drive yourselves to Kart Academy, where you will find your next clue."

Vic & Jenna: Married

"This museum is amazing!" said Vic.

"Look at the artwork on Shy Guy Falls!" said the amazed Jenna.

"How beautiful!"

"Mario Circuit, the one a while ago."

"Hmm... very interesting. Sunset Wilds's artwork is breathtaking!"

"Oh my Gardevoir! Look at Rainbow Road number seven!"

"Amazing! Have you seen the Bowser Castle compilation?"

"Yeah, amazing details!"

Post-leg interview:

"We went in the museum supposedly looking for a clue, but we ended up looking at the amazing artworks of other Mario Kart courses," said Jenna.

"We took our time looking around the museum," said Vic. "After all, we came to The Amazing Race Pokémon to tour around many beautiful places, besides winning a million dollars."

Back to the race...

"We won't get first anyway today," said Jenna.

"The gold lightning cup trophy!" said Vic.

"It's incredibly shiny!"

"I know!"

"There's our cluebox."

"We have lots of time still."

"I'll just get one clue for now, let's continue looking around."

"The Rainbow Road compilation."

"The first one is colorful."

"I know."

The couple looked around for several more minutes. As they exited the museum, they saw two teams coming.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"Oh my goodness! We caught up," said Cindy.

Henry & Maria: Dating

"Thank heavens it's Vic & Jenna!" said Maria.

Vic & Jenna: Married

"How long have we been there?" questioned Jenna.

"I don't know," replied Vic. "It felt like a minute or two."

Vic & Jenna drove off, while the other two teams parked their vehicles.

Henry & Maria: Dating

"It ain't hard finding the cluebox," said Maria.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"Cluebox," pointed Cindy.

"Piece o' cake," said Diana.

-Kart Kapital-

Nadine & Archer: Dating

"Do you know where Kart Academy is?" Archer asked a pedestrian.

The pedestrian Toad just shook his head.

Bill & Charles: Gym Buddies

"We followed the wrong team," said Bill.

-Kart Academy-

Annie & Baron; Currently in 1st

"Detour," read Annie. "Descriptive name or guessing game?"

"After visiting the museum, teams must now identify or describe some of the Mario Kart race courses that have existed. Their choice: descriptive name... or guessing game. In descriptive name, teams will have to pick eight cards, each containing a photo of a Mario Kart race course. They must describe each race course in the best way that they can. Once Iggy Koopa approves of the description, he will hand them their next clue. Teams that can describe well... could finish fast. In guessing game, teams will be led to a classroom with a Koopa Troopa, where they will have to guess the name of the Mario Kart race course to be drawn by the Koopa Troopa using chalk. Teams are allowed to make three guesses per race course. Once they have named eight race courses, they will receive their next clue. Teams who paid attention at the museum... could finish fast."

Annie read, "You will receive a fifteen-minute penalty, to be served at the detour area, if you choose to switch detours."

"So we can't switch?" Baron said.

"Fifteen-minute penalty," replied Annie. "Let's do guessing game."

"Okay," replied Baron.

-Kart Kapital-

Vic & Jenna: Married

"Hi," said Vic to the Parakoopa passer-by. "Can you give us directions to Kart Academy?"

Vic gave the Parakoopa a sheet of paper to draw the map. The Parakoopa took about two minutes to draw the map.

"Thank you very much," said Vic.

The Parakoopa smiled back.

Nadine & Archer: Dating

"They finally left us for good," said Nadine.

Bill & Charles: Gym Buddies

"We don't have a map, or directions," said Charles.

"That's fine, we'll get there randomly," replied Bill.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"Do you know a shortcut to Kart Kapital?" asked Diana to a shy guy.

The shy guy pointed at a direction.

"That should do," said Cindy.

"Thank you," said Diana.

Henry & Maria: Dating

"Diana & Cindy aren't behind us anymore," said Maria.

"So if we make a wrong turn, we're done," said Henry.

-Kart Academy-

Annie & Baron – on guessing game

"What a colorful classroom!" said the amazed Baron.

The Koopa Troopa used an orange chalk and a brown one to draw trees.

"I saw this a while ago," said Baron. "That's Maple Treeway."

The Koopa clapped his hands. He erased the contents of the chalkboard to draw another Mario Kart race course. This time the Koopa Troopa is drawing pipes with green chalk. He also drew the blue sky and the details of a mountain. Then he drew (red-shelled) Lakitu driving a cloud kart with a hangglider.

"I didn't see this," said Baron. "Did you?"

"Nope," said Annie.

"I think it's Mario Mountain," answered Baron.

The Koopa shook his head.

"Mt. Mario?" said Baron.

The Koopa shook his head again.

"It has a lot of rocky details," said Annie.

"Rock Rock Mountain? Jeez, that sounded awkward," said Baron.

The Koopa gave him a thumbs up.

"Woah!" said Baron.

"Nice guess!" said Annie.

Diana & Cindy; Currently in 2nd

"Detour," read Diana. "Descriptive name or guessing game?"

"Let's do the describing thing," said Cindy.

Post-leg interview:

"Some detour choices... are tricky," said Cindy. "The one with the better-sounding name is sometimes the harder detour option."

Back to the race...

"Are you sure?" said Diana. "Guessing sounds easier."

"We can't switch, let's try doing the harder-sounding one," said Cindy.

"Harder-sounding?"

"Yeah, harder-sounding."

"Okay, better not regret this decision."

"I won't, Mom."

Annie & Baron – on guessing game (3 out of 8 named)

"That's Twisted Mansion, I'm very sure," said Baron.

The Koopa gave him two thumbs up.

"Four down, four to go," said Annie.

Annie & Baron – on guessing game (4 out of 8 named)

"Thwomp Caverns?" said Baron.

After that third try, the koopa shook his head and wrote the answer on the board.

"Oh," said Annie.

"Thwomp Ruins, sure was close," said Baron.

Diana & Cindy – on descriptive name

"A savannah race course raced during sunset," said Cindy. "What do you think of the Sunset Wilds description?"

"They're okay, better than mine," replied Cindy.

"I know, we have to fix yours," said Diana.

Annie & Baron – on guessing game (6 out of 8 named)

"Mushroom Gorge," said Baron.

The Koopa gave him a thumbs up.

"This is not a joke," said Charles.

"I think that's it," said Cindy.

Diana gave all eight cards with post-its back to Iggy Koopa. He checked them one by one, and shook his head on Mushroom Bridges description.

"I told you it wouldn't work," said Diana.

"I guess we still have a fighting chance," said Cindy.

"But there's no one here."

"But maybe they're all at the other detour."

"Guess we'll never know, since we can't afford to switch."

Annie & Baron – on guessing game (7 out of 8 named)

"Rainbow Road," said Baron. "A hundred and one percent sure!"

"Piece of cake!" said Vic.

"After all, the answers are in the museum," Jenna said.

Annie & Baron; Currently in 1st

The Koopa gave them a postcard of a circuit course located by the shore with orange skies. At the very center of the picture is a lighthouse.

"I don't know where this is," said Baron.

"Let's go ask someone," said Annie.

Baron flipped the postcard and read what's written at the back.

"Drive yourselves here. The last team to check in may be eliminated," read Baron.

Vic & Jenna; Currently in 2nd

Vic & Jenna also received the same postcard.

"There's got to be another surprise u-turn somewhere here," Jenna said. "I wanna get rid of Nadine and his hot but ugly boyfriend."

"That doesn't matter right now, we got this," said Vic holding the postcard. "This is... Daisy Circuit!"

The Koopa clapped his hands while smiling.

Vic read the back portion, "The last team to check in may be eliminated."

Henry & Maria – on guessing game (1 out of 8 named)

"Let's just keep guessing and never give up," said Maria.

"I wholeheartedly agree with you," said Henry.

Nadine & Archer – on guessing game (1 out of 8 named)

"We're taking forever to get another one right," said Nadine.

"I think we should switch, while it isn't that late yet," said Archer.

"But we got one."

"But we don't know anything else besides that one."

"Are you sure you wanna switch?"

"If it's okay with you. It isn't that late yet."

After an awkward silence, the couple decided to switch.

Henry & Maria – on guessing game (1 out of 8 named)

The couple saw the fire types leaving.

"I think they're switching detours," said Maria.

"How can you tell?" said Henry.

Suddenly from outside, Nadine yelled, "Fifteen minutes ain't a lot I guess."

"We're switching," said Henry & Maria in unison.

Diana & Cindy – on descriptive name

"I think this is better," said Diana.

Diana submitted the Mushroom Bridge card. Iggy approved it and gave Diana & Cindy their next clue, a postcard of Daisy Circuit.

"I think we can guess," said Bill.

"Then let's just guess," said Charles.

"That's Daisy Circuit," said a Goomba pedestrian to Baron.

"Do you know where it is?" asked Baron.

"Left, straight, straight, right, straight, straight, straight, left, right, straight, straight, left," said the Wiggler.

"I've taken it down," said Jenna.

"Thank you," said Vic.

"Do you know where this is?" asked Diana.

"Can you come with us and tell us where to go?" asked Diana.

"Sure," said the Spiny.

-Kart Academy-

Bill & Charles – on guessing game (1 out of 8 named)

"We saw it on the TV shop," said Bill.

"Dolphin Shoals! It was on the brochure we saw last night at the airport," said Charles.

Henry & Maria – on fifteen-minute penalty

Nadine & Archer – on fifteen-minute penalty

"I just remember those moments at the sudoku detour, how we messed up the whole first leg," said Maria.

"They sure were memorable," said Henry.

"I think it's a fight for last place," said Nadine.

"Good luck to y'all," said Archer.

-Kart Kapital-

Vic & Jenna: Married

"So many annoying stoplights," said Jenna.

"I can see Baron & Annie from here," said Vic.

"Where?"

"There."

Annie & Baron: Teachers

"That's Vic & Jenna, right?" said Baron.

"Oh shoot, I thought we were the only ones leading," said Annie.

"We're stuck in the same stoplight with Annie & Baron," said Cindy.

"I can see Vic & Jenna too," said Diana.

"Where?"

"Not far from us, Cindy."

-Kart Academy-

Bill & Charles – on guessing game (4 out of 8 named)

"These are all in the brochures, televisions, billboards," said Charles.

"That's Sunshine Airport," said Bill. "I saw a poster at the hotel's lobby."

"We'll get outta here in no time," said Charles.

Henry & Maria – on fifteen-minute penalty

Nadine & Archer – on fifteen-minute penalty

"It's almost done," said Archer.

"We have a little head start over the ghosts," said Nadine to the camera.

"We have a slight handicap, since they quitted the guessing detour ahead of us," said Henry.

Bill & Charles – on guessing game (5 out of 8 named)

"That's where we arrived when we got lost today," said Charles.

"Mario Circuit," answered Bill. "Of GBA."

Nadine & Archer – on descriptive name

"Let's finish with extremespeed," said Archer.

"As if that's possible," said Nadine.

"Are you telling me that you don't trust your boyfriend?"

"No! No."

"Bill," said Charles, "That was the Sweet Sweet Canyon we saw at the museum."

"You're right! Hahaha!"

"Priceless laugh, Bill."

-Daisy Circuit-

The three teams saw each other and went to separate directions. Diana & Cindy paid and thanked the Spiny that followed them to Daisy Circuit.

Annie & Baron: Teachers

"Let's go look for Ryder," said Annie.

Vic & Jenna: Married

"It's about..." said Vic.

"Isn't that the lighthouse on the postcard?" said Jenna.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"Mom," said Cindy. "The lighthouse."

Annie & Baron: Teachers

"I see the lighthouse, but no Ryder," said Annie.

"He's probably on top," said Baron.

Vic & Jenna: Married

"Lemme park this first," said Vic.

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

"Get our stuff, I'll just park our kart," said Diana.

Annie & Baron: Teachers

"Once I'm done parking our vehicle," said Baron.

-Daisy Circuit Lighthouse-

Vic & Jenna: Married

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

Annie & Baron: Teachers

"An elevator!" said Cindy, pressing the elevator button

"Sweet, we're the first ones in line," said Diana.

The two waited for the elevator to come down. Vic & Jenna arrived.

"Diana & Cindy got ahead of us," said Jenna.

"We can take the stairs," said Vic.

"But I'm getting tired already," said Jenna.

Annie & Baron arrived.

"But we have a chance to get ahead of them rather than waiting," said Vic.

"An elevator!? And a queue!?" complained Annie.

"Let's press all the buttons and take the stairs," whispered Baron.

"Great idea," said Annie.

Annie & Baron went up the stairs. The elevator doors opened. Diana & Cindy went in.

"Sorry, no room," said Cindy.

"That's fine," said Jenna.

Vic felt frustrated and pressed the up button outside the elevator.

"How come the doors won't close?" questioned Cindy.

While Annie & Baron were going to the top level, they realized that the elevator doesn't stop on any levels besides the top level and the bottom level.

"We have no buttons to press," said Annie.

"I forgot, this is a lighthouse," Baron replied.

Back on the ground floor, after thirty seconds, Vic finally chose to let go of the elevator button. The doors started closing.

"Finally!" said Cindy.

"There's probably a problem with the elevator," said Diana. "I think it's best if we get out of here."

"You're right," said Cindy. "I don't wanna be eliminated because my team got trapped in an elevator."

The doors shut close before Cindy was able to press the open button.

"Shoot," said Cindy.

"Let's just pray that we won't get stuck... and eliminated," said Diana.

"We can take second place, I'm too tired," said Jenna.

"I'm sure we aren't last, but we'll probably be third," said Vic. "Baron & Annie took the stairs."

In the elevator...

"Here we go," said Diana.

At the edge of the staircase...

"Ryder ol' buddy!" shouted Baron.

Before the elevator doors opened, Diana & Cindy heard Baron's voice.

"We got company," said Diana.

The elevator doors opened.

"Diana & Cindy just came out of the lift," said Annie.

"Hurry up!" said Baron.

The two teams dashed to the pit stop mat.

Vic & Jenna: Married

"I'm sure the losers are behind us anyway," said Jenna.

"But we could've had another leg on our belts," said Vic.

Back on top level...

Diana & Cindy: Mother & Daughter

Annie & Baron: Teachers

"Welcome," greeted Baby Peach in a cute voice.

"... to Daisy Circuit, Kart Kapital!" greeted Baby Daisy with energy in a cute voice.

"We appreciate it," said Cindy.


Commercial 4:

A team member was seen playing billiards.

"Nine!"

"Way to go Harl! My turn."

"Don't mess this up."

"Where's pokéball number ten?"

"That one beside eleven. Be careful!"

"I got this."

The team member was shown hitting both pokéball numbers ten and eleven.

"I think it's..."

"I don't wanna start over."

Pokéball number eleven was seen rolling towards a corner pocket.

"Don't please don't."

"Don't go in, don't go in!"

"Diana & Cindy," started Ryder. "You are team number..."

"One?" said Diana.

"Team number one!" said Ryder.

"Yehey!" shouted Cindy.

"Hiphip," said Diana.

"HOORAY!" shouted Cindy.

Baron & Annie have disappointed faces.

"Annie & Baron," continued Ryder. "You are..."

"What did we miss?" interrupted Vic.

"Come over here guys," said Ryder.

"We know we're second anyway," said Baron.

Annie & Baron did a fistbump with each other.

"Diana & Cindy, as the winners of this leg of the race," continued Ryder. "You have won a customizable racing kart... each!"

"Woohoo!" shouted Cindy.

"And you can enjoy them after the race," continued Ryder. "Now as I was saying, Annie & Baron, Vic & Jenna, you are the second and third team to arrive."

"I'll take it," said Jenna in a somewhat tired voice.

"Wai-wai-wait," said Baron. "Second and third team... to arrive?"

"Yes," said Ryder. "However..."

Diana & Cindy both have creeped out faces, Baron looked scared, Annie looked worried, Vic raised an eyebrow, and Jenna wore a poker face. Ryder showed them something.

"Oh my Gardevoir!" reacted Jenna.

"What the heck," said Baron.

After that, Annie & Baron rushed down the stairs, Diana & Cindy calmly went down the stairs, and Vic & Jenna quickly went inside the elevator.

"How do I get there?"

"By kart! Duh?"

"Yeah but... where do I go?"

"I dunno you?"

"What do you mean you don't know? I need to get to this lighthouse as soon as possible."

"You need to go to the lighthouse. Duh?"

"Okay never mind."

Archer drove off and looked for another local.

"We have to overtake them first," said Archer.

At the penthouse...

"They aren't here yet, right?" said Maria.

"Ryder, wait for us!" shouted Archer.

"And us, especially us!" shouted Bill & Charles.

Henry & Maria didn't see the two teams coming up fast and panickedly hopped to the pit stop mat, along with the two teams.

"S**t!" said a he.

"That was an awful turtle run," said Bill. "But I work out!"

"Yeah!" said Charles. "We work out!"

"Welcome to Kart Kapital," greeted Baby Peach in a cute voice.

Next week on The Amazing Race Pokémon...

Teams spend a night in the rural Mario Kart World, as the race gets tougher.

"This is not my kind of thing."

"There's an element of luck too you know."

As teams blast off.

"WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"The race gets harder, but the experience gets better."

While Diana faces a major problem.

"I told you to do the last one, Mom."

"I can't even perform a stunt!"

"Mom... we aren't left with any other choices."

And with a new type of u-turn in play...

"So long, suckers."

Teams use it personally and strategically.

"Surprises, and... surprises."

"Wow! Haha."

AN:

1.) Here's how I divided the Mario Kart World:

a.) Kart Kapital: All the circuits are here. Halls of Fame, museums, etc. are also here.

b.) Region 1: Super Mario Kart; Region 2: MK64; Region 3: Super Circuit;... ; Region 8: MK8 (No circuits and rainbow roads in these regions.)

c.) Rainbow Region: All the rainbow roads on outer space (above the Mario Kart World).

2.) I'm almost done with this season. I'll be updating weekly, every Wednesday, but this is for my time zone, so you might want to check during Tuesday nights or Thursday mornings.

3.) The first 2 teams and last 3 teams to check-in this leg were determined in random order. I did the same method for the next leg's first 2 teams and last 2 teams.

4.) I'll be starting season 2 after I finish this season. I won't promise, but I will say that it's better than this season, especially in terms of intro and first few legs. I was barely prepared for the 1st season's intro and first 3 legs. I'm glad that I came up with a good cast, but the tasks on the first few legs weren't so... exciting, especially when I found out that the 1st leg tasks were quite similar to the 2nd leg tasks. So for the 2nd season, I have already prepared the cast (which in my opinion is awesome), the locations for the first 5 legs (I love them!), and all the pre-determined non-elimination legs.

Reminder: Avoid spoilers on the reviews. Have a nice day! =)
