Breaking the Ice

Season 1, Episode 5This is the fifth episode of Total Pokémon Island. A boy and a girl from each team are placed on an iceberg for an endurance challenge. Be the last one or ones standing to win for your team. Both the second place and third place teams would be attending a bonfire ceremony.
The players competing are Cubone and Mawile for Team Articuno, Purrloin and Seel for Team Moltres, and Ekans and Glameow for Team Zapdos. In the meantime, Skitty and Surskit enjoy their date and end up evolving into Delcatty and Masquerain together respectively. The date of Growlithe, Luvdisc, and Smeargle didn't go as well. Luvdisc admitted her feelings for Smeargle, but he turns her down and comes out as gay. He reveals Growlithe is who he really likes. After a disappointed Luvdisc leaves them alone, Growlithe admits he likes Smeargle back.
Back to the challenge, after an elapsed time of 37 minutes, Seel slips off the iceberg and evolves into Dewgong in the freezing water. After 1 hour and 12 minutes pass, rain falls on the iceberg making it even more slippery and Ekans and Mawile both fall into the water. 3 hours and 29 minutes into the challenge, Glameow proposes a deal to Cubone that if he pushes Purrloin off, she'll jump off too. Cubone does just that, and Glameow holds up her end of the bargain meaning Cubone, who evolves into Marowak, won for Team Articuno. At the Team Moltres bonfire ceremony, only Blitzle, Cherrim, Dewgong, Luxio, Mightyena, and Vanillish were elligible to vote. It comes down to Blitzle, and Dewgong, but the slippery seel racks up the most votes for falling first in the challenge and because Purrloin didn't trust him. Onto the Team Zapdos bonfire ceremony, it comes down to the couple that wasn't meant to be: Luvdisc and Smeargle. Luvdisc ends up getting the shaft because the team just didn't see how useful she'd be in challenges. Jellicent reveals that she will keep whoever got less votes between Dewgong and Luvdisc. Dewgong had less votes, so he ends up staying gaining immunity until the team swap. Unfortunately, the sweet and heartbroken Luvdisc does end up getting the boot.
