Creature Power Challenge


Melemele Island: Pokémon School

At the Pokémon School, the Kratt brothers told Ash and his friends about their Creature Powers.

"We have a lot and it's all thanks to the animal buddies that we meet on our Creature Adventures." Martin said.

"What is it like to use Creature Powers?" Sophocles asked.

"Well, it feels like you're an animal yourself, being able to use its awesome powers." Chris said.

"I wanna try using Creature Powers!" Ash said.

"Count me in!" Kiawe said.

"Me too!" Mallow said.

"I'm not missing out on this!" Sophocles said.

"Me neither!" Lana said.

"I want to try it too." Lillie said.

"Great! Let's get started!" Martin said.

"But wait, we only have four Creature Power Suits." Jimmy said.

"True, but with my improved Duplicator, we can make Creature Power Suit copies. They'll only last 30 minutes, but I think that's long enough" Aviva said.

Soon, the Duplicator was activated and six Creature Power Suit copies were created.

"Hey, bro. Ya thinkin' what I'm thinking?" Chris asked.

"Oh yeah, I think we're thinkin' the same thing." Martin said.

"We should have a Creature Power Challenge!" the Kratt Brothers said in unison.

"A Creature Power Challenge?" Lillie asked.

"It's a competition that pits the powers of creatures against each other." Chris said.

"For example, who's stronger: a rhino, or an elephant? Or, who's the better swimmer: a hippo, or a crocodile?" Martin said.

"That sounds fun!" Mallow said.

"Let's all do it." Ash said.

And so, the matchup was decided as: Birds of Prey- Ash vs. Kiawe, Runner- Mallow vs. Lillie, and Swimmer- Lana and Sophocles.

First Round: Birds of Prey

"The objective is to catch guinea fowl flappers." Koki said. "We'll send in seven of them and whoever gets the most wins."

"Now choose your bird." Chris said as he motioned to some bird of prey Creature Power Discs.

Ash picked Bald Eagle and Kiawe picked Peregrine Falcon.

"Activate Creature Powers!" Ash and Kiawe activated their Creature Power Suits using feathers of their respective birds.

Ash and Kiawe took off for the skies as the guinea fowl flappers were deployed.

Kiawe caught the first one then Ash caught two.

Kiawe caught two more and Ash caught his third, leaving only one more flapper left.

"Last one, who's gonna get it?" Aviva asked.

Ash flew after it while Kiawe flew up high into the air and came down for a stoop, snatching the flapper away before Ash could grab it.

"Kiawe wins!" Martin said.

"You won that one." Ash said, and he and Kiawe deactivated their Creature Power Suits.

Second Round: Runner

"The objective of this round is to run a lap around the School." Jimmy said.

"Which creature will it be?" Martin asked as he revealed some runner Creature Power Discs.

Mallow picked Cheetah and Lillie picked Pronghorn.

"Activate Creature Powers!" Mallow and Lillie activated their Creature Power Suits using a tuft of cheetah fur and a Pronghorn horn.

The girls got to the starting line and upon the start signal, started running.

Mallow had the upper hand due to the cheetah's faster speed.

"I'll see you at the finish line!" Mallow said as she ran ahead.

Meanwhile, the others watched the race through the Flycam.

"Mallow's in the lead." Lana said.

"Well, a cheetah is the fastest land animal… but a pronghorn has stamina." Aviva said.

At around three-fourths of the track, Mallow began losing speed.

"Whew, this race is longer than I thought." Mallow said with slight exhaustion.

"I'm almost on your tail, Mallow!" Lillie said as she began catching up.

Eventually, Lillie was practically running right beside Mallow.

At the finish line, the others waited in anticipation as Lillie and Mallow arrived at the finish line and leaped to cross it.

Jimmy checked the photo finish to show that the tip of Lillie's horns crossed the finish line first.

"And the winner is… Lillie! By the tip of the horns!" Jimmy said.

"Whew, so close." Mallow said as she and Lillie deactivated their Creature Power Suits.

Third Round: Swimmer

For this round, everyone moved to a nearby river.

"In this round, you have to swim up the river to where the finish line is." Martin said, and he and Chris began setting up the course while Lana and Sophocles chose their Creature Powers.

Lana picked Platypus and Sophocles picked Crocodile.

"Activate Creature Powers!" Lana and Sophocles activated their Creature Power Suits using a tuft of platypus fur and a crocodile tooth.

"Okay, the course is all set up." Chris said.

With the start call, Lana and Sophocles swam for the finish line.

"Let's go on ahead and wait at the finish line." Koki said and everyone headed for the finish line.

Lana and Sophocles swam at the same speed but suddenly, Lana rushed ahead.

Sophocles saw Lana swimming ahead and tried to catch up to her.

At the finish line, the others waited as Lana and Sophocles approached.

Lana increased her speed even more and crossed the finish line first.

"Lana wins!" Chris said.

"Man, trying to beat Lana at swimming is impossible for me." Sophocles said as he and Lana deactivated their Creature Power Suits.

"And that wraps up the Creature Power Challenge." Jimmy said.

And then, the kids' Creature Power Suits suddenly faded from existence.

"Our Creature Power Suits!" Mallow said.

"Oh, I guess the 30-minute timer ended." Koki said.

"Don't worry, when I perfect the Duplicator so that it can create permanent copies, then we'll make you kids Creature Power Suits again." Aviva said.

"Thanks. That would be awesome." Ash said.
