Rhydon: Last time, on the Rhydonculous Race. The game heated up as the teams travelled to India, one of the hottest places I've ever been. Teams had to make it through a very tricky and improbable maze, complete with obstacles. It was a family feud as Jolteon couldn't resist making sure his siblings were okay, much to the anger of Glaceon. Another noteworthy event was that swinging axes plus fashion designers, performers and dancers make for great T.V. So after the maze, peppers were scorched down. But in the end, the winners were the Lifelong Friends, Bulbasaur and Squirtle! You should have seen the smiles on their faces. On the opposite end, Litten struggled to deal with his good pal Smeargle wondering off but they were relieved when they made it to the chill zone just before the Huggers. So, the Huggers, Smoochum and Bewear, were the first to be eliminated from the race. Now that's enough about yesterday. It's time for today! Find out what happens right now on this episode of... the Rhydonculous Race! (Heavily smiles and winks)

(Theme song)

Rhydon: I'm here at yesterday's chill zone and the winners, Lifelong Friends Squirtle and Bulbasaur are about to take today's first tip.

Squirtle: You do the honors bud.

Bulbasaur: Thanks best friend. (Hits the Rhydon Box and gets a tip) We're going to France! Awesome!

(Somewhere else)

Rhydon: France. Home to berets, baguettes and many famous bike races. Shout outs to you Darumaka25 . (Clears throat) Anyways, teams will be heading here. (A picture of the Effiel Tower is shown) Such a beautiful piece of architecture isn't it?

(Back by the Chill zone)

Squirtle: Alright! To the airport!

Bulbasaur: Right on! (They run off)

Rhydon: Next team may get their tip. (The Eeveelution Siblings get their tip, followed by the twins)

Sylveon: Oh yay! It's always been my dream to go to France! It's so beautiful there.

Leafeon: Well dream on Sylveon because we're racing, not sight seeing.

Glaceon: Exactly what he said. Later!

(In confessional)
Sylveon: I love my brothers and sisters, I really do but sometimes they can just be a BIG THORN IN MY SIDE! (Takes a deep breath) Happy thoughts Sylveon. Happy thoughts.
(End)

Rhydon: As everyone eventually gets their tip- (many hands are shown hitting the Rhydon Box) they make it all the way to the airport, where they'll get on the latest flight to France.

(In the airport)

Weavile: (to a Quagsire) Two seats on the next flight for Paris, France. And you better make them good seats. I'd say first class is about right.

Machoke: But Weavile, we don't have money to upgrade to- (she elbows him) Ow.

Quagsire: No can do. Sorry.

Weavile: (angrily) You better be! (Makes a fist before leaving)

Quagsire: Oh boy. Some Pokémon are really scary. I just need a few breathers and- (looks to see a huge line of the other competitors) Dangit.

Rhydon: (to the camera) So, it turns out there are only twenty seats on flight one, so the teams that placed first through tenth land spots on the first flight. The rest are stuck in flight number two. (The screen shows two planes) And now with the power of editing, hours have passed and flight one has just landed. (Pauses) Man, I wish real life worked like that. Could skip work hours in seconds. But it's only a fantasy.

(Outside France's airport)

Squirtle: Here taxi, taxi, taxi!

Delcatty: Cab!

Pachirisu: (getting in a cab) To the Eiffel Tower please.

Roserade: (to her cab driver) And please do your best to hurry. We're in a race. (The group of taxis drive off)

Sylveon: (looking around) Hey what gives!? I don't see anymore taxis! What's with that?

Glaceon: Yeah, all the other teams took them.

Jolteon: (looking at a map) The Eiffel Tower is only eight blocks away. I say we just run. Come on Sylveon!

Sylveon: Right behind you! (They run off)

Glaceon: Hey, you're not beating us today! Hurry up Lefeaon! (The two run off)

(Inside a taxi)

Chespin: (to the driver) So just keep going straight. We'll tell you when to stop.

Chikorita: This is just so awesome Chespin. The two of us being together in the city of love!

Chespin: I know. It's gonna be so beautiful. But not as beautiful as you. (Kisses her on the cheek)

Chikorita: (blushes) Chespin, you always know just what to say.

Chespin: But let's not get distracted. We still have to focus. (Looks out the window) STOP! This is it! (They rush outta the taxi)

Chikorita: The Eiffel Tower! It's so big!

Chespin: Okay, let's find that Rhydon Box!

Machoke: You snooze you lose! (Grabs a tip) Oh yeah! First!

Chespin: So? It doesn't really matter. (Takes a tip followed by the Lifelong Friends and Gardeners) It's a Botch or Watch.

Roserade: Whoever didn't eat the peppers in India...

Squirtle: Must hit a target atop the Effiel Tower.

Bulbasaur: Sounds, um... challenging.

Rhydon: (to the camera) Why, of course it is! It is called a challenge, isn't it? So anyways, one of the two team members must use any Pokémon move and hit the target on the tippy top of the Effiel Tower. However, if a Pokémon doesn't know any longer range moves, or if they are bad at using them, they can use a handy dandy archery kit.

Squirtle: Well buddy, you're up.

Weavile: Show everyone how it is done Machoke. (The New Friends, Love Birds, Ice Skaters and Contest Stars all grab tips and begin the challenge)

Flaaffy: Come on Buneary, this is easy stuff. Just pretend you're in the Hearthome City Contest again.

(Team Confessional)
Flaaffy: It was one of the biggest contest events of the season. Buneary was so nervous.

Buneary: Um, of course I was! A contest of that caliber can be intense. One mistake and you're done.

Flaaffy: So yeah, then-

Buneary: Flaaffy! It's my story so can't I tell it!? (Flaaffy rolls her eyes and then nods) So, I used my Ice Beam to make big snowflakes all along the perimeter of the building. It was super far away, but I barely did it! It really impressed the judges.
(End)

Buneary: And here it comes! ICE BEAM!!! (Uses an Ice Beam and it hits the target, making a ding) Woo hoo!

Piplup: (impressed) Woah.

Pachirisu: That sure is some Ice Beam

Weavile: More like a lucky shot to me. Machoke, show them how's it's done.

Machoke: HAAA! (Hits the target with his Focus Blast) Boom! (Flexes) Oh, yeah. Welcome to the gun show. (Weavile smacks him) Ow.

Weavile: Focus. We aren't gonna win this race with your carefree mind. Now, let's hurry and beat those two girly girls to the next Rhydon Box. (They run off)

Rhydon: (to the camera) Well looks like the Eeveelution Twins and Siblings finally arrived. (The screen shows them grabbing tips) So, while they take a crack at the archery challenge, the nine teams on flight two are still on board their plane, waiting for the doors to open.

(Onboard flight two)

Quagsire: (over intercom) Alright folks, we have landed in Paris, France. The doors will be opening soon. So sit tight until then.

Vulpix: (squealing gleefully) Ooh, I just cannot believe we are gonna be in Paris! It's the fashion capital of the world!

Sandshrew: (squealing too) I know. I cannot wait to look at all the clothing stores.

Vulpix: I know right! We could use some of them as inspirations for our own designs!

Sandshrew: Ahh... I just cannot wait for the doors to open. (Litten peers over his seat to look at them) Huh?

Litten: You guys do realize it's a race, right? You don't have time to shop.

Vulpix: Don't be such a worry wart Litten. We know what we're doing.

(Team Confessional)
Vulpix: I have no idea how to go about this, but we are going to making this work!

Sandshrew: Tons of beautiful stores here we come! (He and Vulpix cheer while holding their hands by their chests and shaking them)
(End)

Bellossom: (sighs, staring out the window) Do you think Treecko could be looking at the sky right now?

Oricorio: (in her Spanish accent) Um, he could be. But remember, he'd want you to win.

Bellossom: Yeah, I know. It's just being in Paris and all...

Quagsire: (over intercom) The doors are now open.

Buizel: Let's move Oshawott!

Oricorio: Move it lesser Pokémon!

Shinx: Who are you calling lesser Pokémon?

Meowstic: No time for that Shinx! Let's run.

Rhydon: (to the camera) With flight two now officially landed, the teams rush to taxis. But while they still have to wait to get to challenge one, the ones already there are having some trouble completing it!

Chikorita: Ugh! Another Razor Leaf miss. This is so hard.

Bulbasaur: Yeah. The target it WAY too far away!

Chespin: Come on you guys. You got this.

(In Confessional)
Chespin: Bulbasaur was a super good friend to me in season one of Total Drama Pokémon in case you didn't know. So yeah, he is a friend to me, of course I'm gonna cheer him on too!
(End)

Chikorita: Hey, what if we combine our Razor Leafs?

Bulbasaur: That might actually work! (Excited) Let's do it! (They both take a step back. The camera zooms in on their serious faces. They both unleash Razor Leafs, twice as strong and they hit the target) Right on the nose!

Chikorita: (jumps up) We did it!

Squirtle: Well done. (The four of them leave)

Piplup: Grrr. There go two teams! (Delcatty hits the target and then she and Surskit run off) GAH! NOW THATS ANOTHER! Turtwig what are you doing?

Turtwig: Hang on... I'm trying to calculate the perfect trajectory.

Piplup: We don't have time for that... JUST DO IT!

Turtwig: WAH! (Unleashes a Razor Leaf toward Togedemaru) Oops.

Pachirisu: Look out! (Togedemaru uses Spiky Shield and reflects the shot which hits the target) Wait a second, Togedemaru you did it!

Togedemaru: I did? I mean, yeah, I did. (He and Pachirisu run off)

Pachirisu: Bye bye Piplup! (Piplup looks angry)

Piplup: WHAT!? But that was Turtwig's Razor Leaf.

Turtwig: (looking at the tip) I'm sorry Piplup but it does look like defensive moves that can reflect other's moves do indeed count for the Pokémon using said reflective move. Says it right here on the fine print. (Piplup growls and crosses her arms)

(In the streets of Paris)

Buneary: So, where exactly is this second Rhydon Box?

Flaaffy: It said to follow this street. (Looks around) Hey there it is! Down that alleyway. (Weavile and Machoke run by them)

Buneary: (surprised) Where did they come from!?

Machoke: From your darkest nightmare.

(In confessional)
Machoke: Yeah, some may see it as being rude but I'm just being my super tough self. No one comes near to matching my muscle physically and in attitude.
(End)

Weavile: It says it's an all in. And we must successfully walk down this ally way as team... (eyes widen) Which is actually a minefield!

Buneary: (gasps) Uh oh. This could get ugly pretty fast...

Surskit: (from in the distance) OVER THERE!!! (The Ice Skaters arrive) Yes! Made it! Better hurry, there are two teams right behind us.

Weavile: Ugh! You guys!? Why can't you just accept that you won't beat us?

Delcatty: (a bit sassy) I'm sorry but we did last time didn't we? (The two get up in each other's faces)

(Back by the Effiel Tower)

Turtwig: Now if I adjust my shot by precisely twenty five degrees. (shoots a Razor Lead attack which bounces off several objects before hitting the target) Oh math, you never fail me.

Piplup: Not a minute too soon! The other teams are coming! (They leave as the Dancers, Cousins, Jokesters, Gamers and Fortune Tellers arrive)

Froslass: So, only three teams from the first flight are left. (Motions to the Eeveelution Siblings, Eeveelution Twins and Gardeners)

Banette: Guess so. (Grabs the tip and shows it to Froslass) Let's ask the Ice Ball what to do?

(Team Confessional)
Banette: The magic Ice Ball knows all.

Froslass: It always correctly predicts the future or in other words, someone's fortune.
(End)

Froslass: The ball says. (In a spooky voice) Do archery.

Buizel: (to Oshawott) They take orders from a snowball? Weird.

Oshawott: I guess... So do I really have to do this challenge? I'll just goof up.

Buizel; Just toughen up and believe in yourself. You're more skilled then you think.

Glaceon: (overhearing) Oh cute. That's how family should be. (Loudley) YOU HEAR ME JOLTEON!? TAKE NOTES!! (That screen suddenly shows an arrow hitting the target with a swish)

Banette: Hmm. First try. (He and Froslass leave)

Popplio: Wow. Maybe they have a POINT, about this archery stuff. (Laughs)

Rhydon: (to the camera) Well, Popplio seems to be enjoying bad jokes, but everyone at the alleyway isn't enjoying squat.

(In the alley way)

Surskit: Easy does it Delcatty. (They tiptoe past a lump) Okay. We're past that one.

Delcatty: But we're moving way to slow! Just look at Weavile!

Weavile: (yelling back) Giving up Ice Morons?! (She and Machoke run on a mine) AHHH!!! (They get blown up to the start) Ugh... I think I'm dead...

Surskit; See what did I tell you?

Delcatty: (smiles) You know, I'm glad to have a skater friend like you. You keep my speedy urges in check.

Surskit: Thanks. (Looks confused) I think.

Chespin: (starting the minefield) Stay close to
me Chikroita. (She holds on to Chespin tight while smiling) There you go. I'll keep you safe.

Chikorita: Oh Chespin...

Squirtle: Let's do this! YEAH!! (Starts running through the minefield)

Bulbasaur: Squirtle wait! You're gonna- (an explosion is heard and Squirtle lands right in front of Bulbasuar) -step on a mine.

Togedemaru: Yeah, a little too late for that advice. (Bulbasaur frowns at the comment)

(At the Effiel Tower)

Rhydon: (to the camera) As many more teams jump for joy after hitting the bullseye... (Cherrim, Sylveon, and Leafeon are shown hitting the target with attacks and Popplio and Bellossom are shown hitting the target with an arrow) ...one team has FINALLY arrived. A full half hour after the rest of flight two.

Vulpix: Hurry Sandshrew!

Sandshrew: (carrying loads of shopping bags) I'm coming. I'm coming.

Litten: It's about time you guys showed up.

Vulpix: Whatever. We're not gonna go home, if that's what your thinking. (Gets a tip) Okay, target practice? I got this.

(A few feet away)

Primeape: Come on you idiot! All you have to do is hit the target!

Tepig: I'm trying my best here! (Shoots but completely misses)

(In confessional)
Tepig: Yeah. I'm still hurting all over from yesterday. Primeape beat the stuffing outta me and- Hey, you know, I could go for some stuffing now. Sounds yummy.
(End)

Primeape: I'm giving you five minutes before I clobber you.

Tepig: (gulps) Oh boy.

Meowstic: You can do this Shinx! Just pretend your Pit, using your bow and-

Shinx: Meowstic, I'm not using the bow remember? (Uses Thunderbolt and hits the target) Yippee I did it!

Meowstic: GG man! (They high five and leave. Oshawott hits a target with Water gun)

Buizel: Well done cous.

Smeargle: (hits the target) Done Litten. (Litten smiles and they leave. Vulpix sighs)

Sandshrew: (sorting shopping bags) It's okay Vulpix, you got this.

(At the alleyway)

Chespin: Okay now... JUMP! (He and Chikorita jump) Yeah baby, we did it!

Chikorita: You know Chespin, there's nothing I'd rather be doing.

Chespin: (confused) You like being in a minefield?

Chikorita: No silly! There's nothing I'd rather be doing, than being with you. (They both smile at each other and lean in when...)

Froslass: Emotions are pointless you know. (Chespin and Chikorita scream, startled by Froslass) Whoops.

Banette: Hehehehe. Good scare Froslass.

Froslass: Um, whatever.

Flaaffy: Oh yeah! First to the other side! (Does a little dance) Come on Buneary! (looks to see her close to the end)

Buneary: I-I can't. I don't think I'll make it past this part.

Flaaffy: You can do it! Time to jump higher than ever before!

Buneary: (nods) You're right. I can do this! (Jumps twice and then makes a huge leap and lands by Flaaffy) Yes! Perfect landing too!

Flaaffy: I'm proud of you Buneary. (The Ice Skaters and Athletes make it through) Yikes. Better hurry and grab that tip.

Buneary: (gets a tip) Hey, it's a riddle. (Surskit and Weavile grab tips)

Surskit: It says, go to this place with drawings, such as one of a face. Hurry here or you'll be outta the race!

Machoke: Huh? What could that mean?

Weavile: What ever! Let's just run around nearby places and see if we can find the Chill Zone.

Machoke: Good plan.

(Team Confessional)
Surskit: In Ice Skating, its important to know your competition.

Delcatty: Just look at us! (Motions to herself and Surskit) We're competition.

Surskit: And yeah, unfortunelty Machoke and Weavile are our biggest competition. So we are gonna have to follow them to guarantee they don't beat us today.

Delcatty: Yeah.
(End)

Rhydon: (to the camera) The first three teams begin to look for the Chill Zone, while the last three teams are still at the Eiffel Tower. The Acquaintances, Pichu Twins and Fashion Designers better kick it into overdrive.

(At the Effiel Tower yet again)

Pichuette: PIII-CHU! (Shoots a Thunder Shock but misses) Aw. Missed again.

Pichu: Um, just keep trying. You'll get it eventually.

Pichuette: What's the point? I'm not strong enough.

Pichu: Then switch to a bow and arrow! Remember that paintball party we had two years ago?

Pichuette: When I sniped Uncle Raichu from 50 feet away? (Grabs an arrow and bow. Shoots once and misses) Ug. Come on. (Hits the target) Bullseye! (Pichu hugs his sister) Bye everyone else. We're younger and still beating you.

Primeape: WELL YOU TWO TWERPS SUCK!!!

Tepig: Primeape, that wasn't very nice.

Primeape: You know what else isn't very nice? (Tepig shakes his head no) YOU SUCKING!!!

Vulpix: Time for another Ember! (Hits the target) Alright! I did it!

Sandshrew: Way to go girl! We are still in this thing, even when we take time to shop.

Vulpix: Totally. We are such the admirable team right now! (Sees Sandshrew struggling) Hang on. I'll take a few bags.

Sandshrew: Thanks. Here's the the ones with your scarves and bows and leggings- (they head off)

Tepig: (misses another Ember) Ugh. My head is still hurting.

Primeape: Well it's about to hurt even more. (Picks up Tepig)

Tepig: Wha-what are you doing!?!?

Primeape: Just shut up and suck it up. (Throws Tepig super hard and Tepig crashes into the target) There. You hit the target. Now let's go.

(At the alleyway)

Popplio: (arrives with Totodile) This is gonna be scary: But not as scary as Midnight Lycanroc. (Up ahead, Piplup and Turtwig blow up and land in front of Popplio) Are you guys okay?

Totodile: They don't look so good. Just look at Piplup's weirdly shaped beak.

Piplup: (a bit hurt) I-I always look that way you dolt! And you, (points at Popplio) I'll be okay as long as you don't tell a j-

Popplio: Well that's a GOOD-RA thing! (Laughs)

Piplup: AHHHHH!!!!

Buizel: (moving across the minefield) Oshawott, what are you waiting for?

Oshawott: Nothing. Just give me one second.

Buizel: One.

Oshawott: (nervously) Wait! Give me a few more!

Buizel: Hang on tight. (Picks him up) And, we're off.

Meowstic: And so are we Shinx.

Shinx: This'll be a cakewalk.

(Team Confessional)
Shinx: I admire Meowstic for many things, like this for example.

Meowstic: With my psychic powers I can locate where the mines are. We can make sure we avoid them with this strat. (High fives Shinx)
(End)

(At the end of the minefield)

Squirtle: (rolls into the Rhydon Box) Ouch. (Comes out of his shell) Sweet, looks like I made it. (Bulbasuar makes it through panting) You did good buddy! (They race off as the Fortune Tellers finish)

Banette: That was surprisingly simple.

Froslass: Indeed it was. (They grab at tip and leave)

Chikorita: Okay Chespin jump.

Chespin: I'm not too sure...

Chikorita: Just trust me. One, two three. Jump! (They jump and barely avoid the explosion) Phew. What a close call.

Chespin: No it wasn't. I knew I could trust you. (Gets a tip and reads it) Wait a second, art? Is that...

Chikorita: The Louvre!

Chespin: I bet that's where the Chill Zone is! Let's go! Team Boyfriend and Girlfriend for the win! (Pumps his fist in the air)

(In Confessuonal)
Chikorita: (blushing) Oh man, I just love how courageous and sweet Chespin is. He is just way too... perfect. (Looks at the camera) Oh, hehehe. (Nervously) I'm blushing really hard aren't I? (Fans herself with her leaf) Is it hot in here?
(End)

Rhydon: (to the camera) As Chespin and Chikorita make a beeline for the Louvre, it looks like the Athletes, Ice Skaters, and Contest Stars all realize they have to go there too. (The screen shows Buneary pointing at the Louvre) But, they better hurry because more and more teams are finishing the challenge... (The New Friends, Dancers, Eeveelution Siblings, Eeveelution Twins, Gamers and Cousins finish) Vulpix, Sandshrew, Primeape and Tepig have finally arrived at the alleyway.

Vulpix: A minefield? Are they crazy!? I'd say Raichu heavily influenced this show.

Primeape: Well sucks to be you guys.

Tepig: But we're in last too.

Primeape: Not for long. (Picks up Tepig and throws him across)

Tepig: AHHHH!

(In confessional)
Primeape: You know, Tepig isn't that bad a partner. That's because I enjoy hearing him scream.
(End)

Turtwig: Okay Piplup, take two steps to the right. WAIT, actually just one.

Piplup: Ugh! Turtwig you are literally gonna cost us the game! You take too long.

Turtwig: B-but-

Piplup: I'm just going it alone. (steps on a mine and gets blown up) WHAAA!!

Turtwig: PIPLUP NOOO!!! (Runs backwards towards her)

Cherrim: Oh no, those poor saps.

Roserade: Okay let's try this side.

Cherrim: Don't have to tell me twice. YIPPEE LES GO!!! (Takes off at full speed)

Roserade: Cherrim, not so fast! (They make it past) You know, you are way faster than you look.

Primeape: Thanks for clearing a path for me losers.

Tepig: Oh good you made it Primeape. (Gets a tip) Okay, let's find that chill zone!

(In front of the Louvre)

Chespin: Well, we're at the Louvre.

Chikorita: (looks around) I SEE IT! The chill zone. Is right there.

Chespin: Alright! (Machoke shoves past him) Ow. Hey!

Machoke: Morons. Way to be to dumb. (Runs into a lamppost) Oof.

Chespin: Ha! Look who's talking now! Run Chikorita! (They run and step on the chill zone) WOO WHOO!!!

Chikorita: (gasps) We did it! We're first!

Rhydon: That's right! Boyfriend and Girlfriend you are first, showing that true love conquers all in the city of love. You can enjoy oh so tasty croissants with the rest of the staff over there too. (The Athletes walk onto the carpet) Well, you guys are second today. Very good.

Weavile: It is an improvement but I'm not too happy about it. I WILL be first next time. (Walks off glaring at team Boyfriend and Girlfriend)

(Team Confessional)
Weavile: So close to winning and those stupid losers, Chespin and Chikorita take it away.

Machoke: Sorry about that Weavile. It was my fault.

Weavile: It's fine. But let me tell you this... I WILL ELIMINATE THOSE STUPID GRASS STARTERS IF ITS THE LAST THING I DO! (Machoke looks slightly scared)
(End)

Rhydon: Contest Stars you guys are in third place!

Buneary & Flaaffy: ALRIGHT!!! (They high five)

Rhydon: Ice Skaters take fourth again. (A picture of the Ice Skaters looking upset is shown) Fifth place to the Fortune Tellers (Their photo is shown) Sixth goes to the Lifelong Friends. (Their photo is shown) And the Dancers place seventh. (Their photo is shown)

(Back at the alleyway, Piplup and Turtwig are shown getting blown up several times. The Pichu Twins wince at it)

Pichuette: Sucks to be them right now.

Pichu: Well it also sucks to be us right now! We are in the bottom few teams! AGAIN!

Pichuette: Okay then what are we waiting for? (They dash past the Fashion Designers and Jokesters who are moving slowly)

Vulpix: Woah... Woah!

Sandshrew: That's right Vulpix, get your balance back.

Popplio; Wow, you two sure took lots of time to shop. You could say you shopped, until you dropped outta the race. (Laughs with Totodile)

Vulpix: So not funny Popplio. We are trying to make up for that and stay in the race.

Popplio: Oh, yeah, sorry.

Pichu: (yelling) Well you are gonna have to hurry! (Gets a tip) Hmm. Weird riddle. (Pichuette shrugs and they head off)

Litten: Yeah! Finally made it Smeargle.

Smeargle: Woo.

Litten: Could of done without those explosions though. (Smeargle blinks as Litten grabs a tip) Got to this place with drawings, such as one of a face. Hurry here or you'll be outta the race! (Happily gasps) THE LOUVRE!!! OH MY GOD IVE ALWAYS WANTED TO GO THERE!!

(Team Confessional)
Litten: The Louvre is home to hundreds of priceless paintings. It's like art heaven! (Slaps himself) Calm down Litten. Don't get overexcited... Oh who am I kidding! IM GONNA SEE SO MANY PIECES OF MAGNIFCENT ART!!!
(End)

(At the Chikl Zone)

Rhydon: Eighth (The Cousins team photo is shown) Ninth (the New Friends picture is shown) Tenth (the Gamers picture is shown) And wait a second, look who made it here extremely quickly.

Litten: Yes! Yes! We are here!

Rhydon: Yeah. You guys are in eleventh place today.

Litten: Yeah I don't really care. Come on Smeargle, let's go admire the paintings in the Louvre! (They run off)

Rhydon: (shrugs) And here come the Eeveelution Siblings in twelfth. With their younger siblings right behind them.

Jolteon: Aw man. How'd we drop from second to twelfth? That sucks.

Glaceon: Well we'll get you next leg Jolteon. Hmph.

Leafeon: Yeah! (The Acquaintances arrive)

Primeape: YES WE'RE SAFE!

Rhydon: Yeah, you're safe as long as everyone else doesn't make it in the next half hour. Thirty minute penalty.

Tepig: What!? Why?

Rhydon: Tepig, you never hit the target with a move or an arrow. Primeape threw you, which was against the rules.

Primeape: (extremely angering) ARE YOU (Censored) KIDDING ME!? THIS IS UNFAIR AND IF WE GO HOME ILL MURDER YOUR WHOLE FAMILY.

Rhydon: Yeah, yeah. Calm down and stand over there.

(Twenty minutes later)

Rhydon: (to the camera) As Tepig and Primeape wait it out... more teams reach the chill zone and are safe for another episode! (The Gardeners, Jokesters, Pichu Twins and Fashion Designers are shown finishing in that order) And with ten minutes left on their penalty, Tepig and Primeape are beginning to look nervous because there is only one team left other than them.

(At the alleyway)

Piplup: (hurt) Turtwig, this is all your fault! You are making us lose!

Turtwig: My fault!? Piplup, you're not listening to me.

Piplup: Just shut up! Maybe our friendship should be over!

Turtwig: (looking ticked off) YOU SHUT UP!!! (Covers his mouth) Op-oops. Look, Piplup you are gonna have to listen to me you know. We are an awesome team like two gears on a clock. But we aren't working in harmony. You have to follow me in order to turn the same way. You understand? (Piplup just stands there speechless) Ugh. Come on. (Gabs her) If we hurry we might still be able to make it.

(In Confessional)
Piplup: I-I-I don't really know what to say about Turtwig. (Takes a deep breath) Well, here it goes. I am extremely proud of Turtwig for standing up to me. I always knew he had it in him. Ahhh... (shakes her head) Nope. That didn't happen. No swooning here. UGH! JUST END THIS CONFESSIONAL!
(End)

(The screen shows the Acquaintance's penalty timer hitting four minutes as the Love Birds make it through the alleyway and get a tip)

Rhydon: It's gonna be close. It all depends on if the Love Birds know where to head.

Primeape: Grrr. We better not lose.

Tepig: (looks at the timer) Only fifteen seconds left!

Rhydon: Ooh, but here they come! (The timer ticks down as the Love Birds run) Penalty expires in five, four, three, two... (Piplup and Turtwig cross the finish line) one! It's too late, Love Birds take eighteenth!

Piplup: Yes! We did it! It's all thanks to you Turtwig. (Hugs him and he blushes)

Rhydon: Well, Primeape and Tepig. Guess you guys are out. Serves you right for cheating.

Primeape: YOU KNOW WHAT? JUST SCREW THIS SHOW!!!

(Acquaintances Elimination Monatage begins)

Tepig: Well, we got to go to two really cool places.

Primeape: And Tepig sucked it up big time.

Tepig: Hey! You were the one being a jerk the whole race.

Primeape: I don't care. But, yeah, this race was a waste of time.

Tepig: Hey, I'm getting hungry. (Primeape punches him) Ow! Hey!

(End Montage)

Rhydon: We're down another team. Find out what happens next time on, the Rhydonculous Race!!!

Well, that's a new record for length. So, this is where you need to be honest with me...

IMPORTANT- Yes, this series is a good amount longer than Total Drama Pokémon. (Seriously, TDP's longest chapter was like 3,900 words. This one is 4,700...) My question is, should I shorten the chapters or keep them long to give each team some screen time as well as development. It also may take an extra day or two for these to come out as well but they may shorten as teams are cut down. It is really important that I adhere to what my readers wanna see. SO PLEASE LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS
