Announcer: Last time on Total Pokemon Action, the contestants dealt with the party movie. Mason continued to try to make his team win. Skore's alliance was targeting Sola and Luna, two people on their team who hadn't been doing anything for the challenges. The challenges continued being party based, having the contestants steal and drink beer, sing, and finally trash a house. The Charizards won the last three challenges, while the Lucarios only won the first one. The Lucarios were sent to elimination, and thanks to Skore, Sola and Luna were sent packing. Will the Lucarios lose again? Will Mason keep being sneaky? Will Kevin do more fun stuff? Find out right now on Total…Pokemon…Action!

With the merge coming after this day was over, many of the contestants were doing everything they could to be safe. Many of them were trying to make alliances before the day was over. The people that already had alliances were discussing their moves for today.
"So…what are we gonna do now?" asked Striker.
"Well, we need to think about who we're gonna vote out because the merge is coming tomorrow", said Skore.
"Well, I say if we lose today, we get rid of Klavier", said Ded. "He hasn't been doing much of anything and he's weak against ice…and I'm pretty sure he voted out M.P.S."
"What?" asked Laxish.
000
Laxish: Klavier got my friend out? I hope he gets out next...and I want to get out too. I miss my buddy
000
"Yeah, well think about it", said Ded. "He's weak against ice, and M.P.S. was a Ground/Ice-type."
"Okay, you have a point, so he's going if we lose today", said Spiro. "What about when we reach the merge?"
"Well, I think that we should get out Ebony because he's getting really annoying with his grudge against Cano, after him I think we should get out Kai or Jet because they'll be huge threats, and then Kevin because he's crazy and he could win this if he sets his mind straight."
"Well that's good", said Ded.
"Yeah, so let's try to win this so we won't have to use this yet", said Skore.
000
"Okay Ebony, we need to think about our strategy", said Carman.
"What do you mean?" asked Ebony. "We're winning."
"No, the merge is tomorrow, so who should we get rid of when and if we make it", said Carman.
"Oh, well I'm ready for that, I want to get rid of that mangy mutt as soon as possible", said Ebony smiling.
"Other than him", said Carman.
"Well, I'd like to get rid of everyone he loves, just like when he killed my brother", said Ebony.
"Hmmm…that gives us a lot of people to work with", said Carman.
"I know, that's why we need to hurry up and win this challenge so we can get rid of him and the others", said Ebony.
"Yeah", said Carman.
000
"Great job Kevin, you won the challenge for us yesterday", said Mason.
"YAY!" he cheered.
"Ugh…do you ever stop doing that?" asked Mason.
"YEAH! WHEN I FEEL LIKE STOPPING!"
"Whatever", said Mason. "Now, when we get the merge, who do you think we should get rid of?"
"FRIED CHICKEN!"
"So…Kai", said Mason.
"YAY!"
"Wow, I guess you're getting a little bit smarter", said Mason.
"LOOK AT ME GO! I'M SPINNING!" said Kevin as he started spinning on the horn on his head.
"Or not", said Mason.
"CONTESTANTS! IT'S CHALLENGE TIME!"
000
"Hello contestants and welcome to the pre-merge challenge", said Mew. "This challenge will decide who will move on to the merge, and who doesn't."
"Yeah…we kinda figured that", said Spiro.
"Well okay then ammonite, the next movie is…the Pokemon movie!"
Everyone stared at him with the 'are-you-serious' face.
"Yeah, it's really simple", said Mew. "You have to battle a legendary Pokemon from 3 different generations…not including me and Victini."
"We'll die!" yelled Skore.
"No you won't, we'll do it one at a time", said Mew. "Oh, and did I mention that this was automatic elimination challenge?"
Everyone looked at him wide-eyed.
"That's right, whoever loses the most battles is automatically eliminated", said Mew smiling.
"Do we really have to battle a legendary from each generation?" asked Farra.
"Yeah, this is the pre-merge challenge. It'll prove who the strongest people are and who the weakest people are", said Victini.
"Oh no", said Striker sadly.
"Now, each of you will be battling the same legendary, but you will taking turns", said Mew. "Who ever wins the battle win get a point. After all of the battles are over, we will tally up the points and whichever two contestants have the least amount of points will be eliminated."
"How many legendaries are there again?" asked Mason.
"There are 48 of us, but you won't be battling me and Victini, so it's actually 46, but it doesn't matter because you're just battling one legendary from 3 generations", said Mew.
"Are you serious?" asked Sparky.
"Yeah", said Victini. "We just said that it'll prove who's strong and who's weak."
Everyone groaned.
"Okay, the first legendary you're battling is…Articuno!" announced Mew as a blue bird flew from the sky. She has three crests on her head, and she had large wings and a threatening glare.
"Hello Articuno", greeted Victini.
"Hey", she greeted back.
"Now, who wants to battle her first?" asked Mew.
Everyone stepped back, except Demenio.
"Demenio, thanks for volunteering", said Mew.
"Damn it!" he yelled.
"Now, get started", said Mew as he moved out of the way.
Articuno quickly used Ice Beam on Demenio and he moved out of the way. Demenio shot a Flamethrower towards her, but she flew out of the way. Articuno charged towards Demenio with her wings glowing. She hit him square in the chest, making him land on the ground. He quickly got up as she used Ice Beam again, freezing his legs to the ground. Demenio tried to get free
"Sheer Cold!" she yelled as her body was surrounded in a blue aura. She moved her head back and blasted a beam of chilling ice at Demenio.
Demenio kept trying to get free his legs free from the ice. He moved out of the way at the last second as the beam hit the ground, causing an explosion.
Demenio quickly used Sire Fang on Articuno, causing her a lot of damage. He followed it up by using Flamethrower on her, knocking her out.
"Demenio gets a point!" said Mew as Demenio went back to the group. "Now, Jesse you can go next."
Jesse groaned and went up to the battle field as Victini healed Articuno.
"Alright, you're next", said Articuno smiling.
"Begin!"
Articuno quickly picked Jesse up and flew him into the air before dropping him on the ground. Jesse landed on his feet, taking minimum damage. He fired an Aura Sphere at Articuno as she flew back down. She dodged it and shot an Ice Beam at him. Jesse dodged it and used Aura Sphere once again, which hit it's mark. Articuno fell from the sky and landed on the ground as Jesse used Bone Rush on her. He used the bone to knock her into the air. When she fell back down, she was unconscious.
"Jesse gets a point!"
"Sonan, you're next", said Mew.
Sonan came up to Articuno, who was fully healed by Victini.
"Wow, a Wynaut. This battle is gonna be easy", said Articuno. "Sheer Cold!"
A blue aura surrounded her body again as she shot a beam at Sonan. Sonan didn't move as a force field like covering surrounded his body, sending the move back to Articuno, knocking her out with one hit.
"Um…Sonan gets a point for that one hit K-O", said Mew. "Farra, you're next!"
Articuno got up and immediately froze Farra. Farra broke out of the ice and used Psybeam, hitting Articuno straight in the chest and rendering her confused. She jumped on top of her and used Stomp on her back, knocking her out with ease.
"Wow, Articuno, you're weak", said Mew. "Farra, you get a point. Carman, you're next."
Articuno quickly used Ice Beam on her, knocking her out with ease.
"Wow, that was fast", said Mew smiling. "No point for Carman."
"It's time to make this more fun…MONTAGE TIME!"
We now present a brief battling montage
As the battles continued on there started to be a pattern on wins and a few losses. Ded knocked out Articuno after using Hyper Beam. Cano easily knocked her out after using Heat Wave. Vixen got frozen in the ice from Articuno's Ice Beam, but soon freed herself and finished her off with Flamethrower. Sparky used Thunder on Articuno, successfully knocking her out. Ebony simply copied Sparky's strategy and got a point as well. Darren used Hydro Pump on Articuno, but it didn't do much damage. Articuno couldn't really do anything to Darren, because he was part Ice-type. It took Darren a long time to knock out Articuno, but he did, and earned a point. Kai used Flare Blitz on Articuno and knocked her out with one hit. It didn't take Jet that long to knock out Articuno, he used an extremely powerful Aqua Jet on her and knocked her out. Klavier flew towards Articuno and was immediately knocked out by her Ice Beam. Mason used Razor Wind and knocked out Articuno after his legs were frozen. Skore was at a huge disadvantage and was easily knocked out by Articuno's Fly attack. Spiro used Rock Slide and immediately knocked out Articuno because of the double type disadvantage. Kevin kept dancing as Articuno started attacking. Soon enough, Kevin used Tri Attack and knocked her out.
We hope you enjoyed this brief battling montage
"Alright, there are three more battles before we move onto the next legendary", said Mew. "Next up, Laxish."
Laxish walked up to the Articuno and was immediately taken into the air. Articuno dropped him down and used Ice Beam when he hit ground, knocking him.
"No point for Laxish. Spike's next", said Mew.
Spike was almost instantly knocked out by Articuno's Ice Beam, but he stayed strong and used Metronome, which send a rock flying in her direction, knocking her out.
"Man, she's weak", said Mew under his breath. "Spike gets a point. Time for the final battle…Striker!"
"Fuck my life", said Striker as he went up to battle field.
"Now…begin!" yelled Mew.
"This'll be easy!" said Articuno as she flew straight towards Striker.
Striker panicked and moved out of the way, making her crash into the ground. Articuno rubbed her head with her wing. She immediately used Steel Wing, but Striker closed his eyes and used Harden to protect himself. Articuno hit Striker, but she ended up flipping over because of her wing being clipped on Striker's body. Articuno charged at Striker again, but Striker hopped out of the way, making her smash into the ground again, knocking her out.
"…Wow, Striker won…and he didn't even touch her!" laughed Mew.
Articuno came behind him and smacked him with her wing, before flying off.
"Time for the second legendary…Celebi!" announced Victini as Mew looked shocked.
Celebi teleported to the lot, directly beside Mew.
"Hey baby", said Celebi seductively.
Mew smiled nervously as Celebi slid next to him.
"Uh…you have to battle these kids…for their challenge sweetie", said Mew nervously.
"Okay…but you owe me", said Celebi as she kissed him.
Mew laughed, "Okay, now who's first to battle her?"
"I'll go", said Spike.
"Okay, Spike you're first, but first, let's see the results of the first battle", said Mew.

"Not looking so good for Klavier and Laxish", said Mew. "Now, Spike, begin!"
Spike immediately used Air Slash and hit Celebi. She got back up after falling and used Psychic on him, sending him to the ground and knocking him out.
"Whoa…" said Klavier. "She's a tough chick."
"Yeah, I know, I'm a lucky guy…" said Mew nervously. "Spike doesn't get a point. Who's next?"
"I'll go", said Mason.
Mason went up to the battlefield, across from the Time Travel Pokemon. Celebi got started by using Confusion, but she forgot that it didn't affect Dark-types. Mason used Dark Pulse on Celebi, knocking her out with one hit.
"Wow, it takes one hit of a super-effective move to knock her out?" asked Vixen.
"Well…she does have 7 weaknesses", said Ded.
Celebi got back up and started floating again.
"I'll go next…just to get my loss over with", said Striker as hopped to the battlefield.
Celebi gathered some sunlight and shot the beam at Striker, but he hopped out of the way, making the beam hit the ground. Celebi used Psychic to lift Striker in the air. Striker fell back down as Celebi came towards him. He used Harden as she came towards him. Celebi hit head on his hard shell and Striker landed on her back.
"What have I got to lose?" asked Striker as he bit her neck, knocking her out.
"Well, Striker won", said Mew shocked. "He get's a point. Ded's next."
Ded went up to the battlefield as Celebi got up. Celebi was angry and used Psychic to pick Ded up and slam him down onto the ground repeatedly, eventually knocking him out.
"Oh, you guys unleashed Celebi's beast mode. Your all about to lose now", said Mew.
Kai rolled his eyes and went up to the battlefield. Celebi immediately used Confusion and threw Kai against the wall of a building, knocking him out.
"Whoa…K-Kai got knocked out?" asked Skore. "Now I know we're gonna lose."
"I guess it's time for a beat down montage", said Victini smiling.
*Sigh* We now present another battling montage.
Celebi used Psychic on Jesse, and because he was part Fighting-type, he was instantly knocked out. Cano tried to reverse everything by using his Psychic, but Celebi's was more powerful and he was knocked out. Demenio dodged Celebi's attack, because he was part Dark-type and easily defeated her. Vixen was able to avoid Celebi's attacks and used Flamethrower on her, knocking her out. Celebi got more angry and starting demolishing the other contestants. Sparky was immediately defeated by Celebi's SolarBeam. Darren was knocked out by Celebi's Leaf Storm, as was Jet. Carman was knocked out by Celebi's Confusion. Laxish was taken out by her Psychic. Spiro was easily taken out by SolarBeam. Farra couldn't take Celebi's Psychic power and was defeated. Ebony was immediately knocked out by Celebi's Leaf Storm. Kevin once again started dancing and knocked Celebi out after she got tired, ending her rampage.
We hope you enjoyed this brief battling montage…again!
"Okay, Sonan's next", said Mew as Sonan walked up to the battlefield.
Celebi immediately launched a Confusion attack, but Sonan immediately blocked it using Mirror Coat again and sent it back at Celebi with double the power, knocking her out.
"Okay, the game junkie gets another point", said Mew. "Skore's next."
Skore groaned and went up to the battlefield. Celebi used Confusion on him and knocked him out immediately.
"Okay, Klavier's next", said Mew.
"No way, I forfeit I don't wanna be brutally smashed", said Klavier.
"Wuss!" said Victini.
"I'd rather be called a wuss than die", said Klavier.
"Alright then, Celebi, you're done", said Mew. "You can leave."
"Oh no, I said that you owe me", said Celebi seductively. "And you owe me right now."
"Crap", said Mew as Celebi dragged him into his trailer. "SHOW THEM THEIR SCORES!" he yelled.

"THANK YOU!" yelled Mew as he clung to the door of his trailer before being yanked inside forcefully.
"O…kay, the final legendary you'll be fighting is…Groudon!" announced Victini.
"Oh come on!" yelled Skore. "We did a challenge with him two times already."
"That was the robot Groudon remember? This is the real one", said Victini as a Fissure appeared from the ground, revealing the huge legendary.
"Groudon, I said not to make that Fissure!" yelled Victini.
"SORRY! I JUST FELT LIKE DOING THAT!" yelled the colossal legendary, making the smaller legendary cover his ears.
"Why do you scream when you talk?!" yelled Victini.
"NO REASON!"
"Well whatever then, you have to battle those contestants down there and try to win", said Victini.
"I don't even need to try, I will win", said Groudon, lowering his voice.
"Okay, if you say so", said Victini as he floated back towards the contestants.
"Okay, whoever wants to go first can get started", said Victini.
"It'll take us hours to bet this guy! Can we work together?" asked Klavier.
"No way; that would mean that if you all defeat him, you all get a point", said Victini.
"And if someone gets knocked out before we take him down, they don't get a point", said Mason.
"Hmmm…"
"Come on Victini, let them work together. It'll probably make it easier, but it still won't work", said Groudon.
"Fine", said Victini.
"Great!" said Ded.
"Let's take him down", said Kai, shocking everyone.
"Okay, that was weird so…EARTHQUAKE!" yelled Groudon as he stomped on the ground.
Some of the contestants with quick reflexes jumped onto nearby building or flew into the air to avoid the attacks, while others immediately got knocked out by the move.
"Well, let's see…Vixen, Sparky, Demenio, Laxish, Spiro, Striker, Farra, Mason, and Ebony are all out of the running", said Victini.
"DAMN IT!" yelled Demenio as he and the others got up and went to the sidelines with Victini.
"Continue on, Groudon", said Victini.
"Right", said Groudon smiling.
The remaining contestants got from them places as rocks began falling from the sky. The Flying-types weren't able to dodge them that quickly and were knocked out instantly. Jet and Darren both used Hydro Pump on Groudon, making him yell.
"I HATE WATER!" he yelled.
"Do it again", said Jesse.
Jet and Darren started spraying different parts of Groudon's body. Darren started spraying his chest and moved up to his neck as Jet kept soaking his legs.
As Groudon got weaker, he decided to use one final move. "FISSURE!"
He punched the ground and a huge crack appeared in it. It opened and a few of the contestants either jumped out of the way or fell inside.
Skore, Ded, and Jet fell in, causing an OHKO on all three of them. Darren, seeing that he was now alone and that Groudon was getting weak, pushed himself harder as some of the remaining contestants helped him. Cano started blasting Groudon with Psychic, giving Darren more room to spray, Kai kept punching his leg, Sonan couldn't do anything because he wasn't being attacked at the moment, Jesse was hitting Groudon with Bone Rush, but didn't do much damage, Kevin just danced, and Carman used Grass Knot and made Groudon slam on the ground, causing a ton of damage and knocking him out.
"The other people win!" announced Victini. "Now let's see who's going home."

"It looks like Klavier and Laxish are eliminated!" announced Victini.
"Hey, what about Skore?" asked Klavier angrily. "He got 0 points too.
"Yeah, but he's higher ranked that you guys and he lasted longer in the final battle, so…bye!" said Victini.
"This game is so unfair!" yelled Klavier.
"Life's not fair. Deal with it buddy", said Victini as Klavier and Laxish left in the Lame-O-Sine.
"Congratulations, the 19 of you have made it to the merge!" announced Victini.
The remaining contestants cheered.
"But this means that the competition is gonna be harder. There are gonna be some changes in the rules that we will explain to you tomorrow, but right now, feel free to celebrate", said Victini as the contestants ran back to their trailers.
000
Victini teleported back to his and Mew's shared trailer and saw him watching TV with Celebi sleeping on his lap. He noticed that their fur was messy and Celebi had a small smile on her face. He floated up to them.
"What happened?" asked Victini.
Mew sighed. "It was just…great in here, let's just leave it at that."
"Um…okay", said Victini.
