This is the seventh episode of Total Pokémon Island. The campers find out that, along with a round robin pokémon battle challenge, a fourth team will be formed between one from Team Articuno, three from Team Moltres, and five from Team Zapdos. This team was called Team Celebi. The two teams that come last in the challenge would both go to separate bonfire ceremonies and vote somebody out.

The new Team Celebi consisted of Corphish from Team Articuno, Buizel, Delcatty, Growlithe, Porygon2, and Pachirisu from Team Zapdos, and Gligar, Luxio, and Ponyta from Team Moltres.

Team Zapdos went first and it was Starmie's turn. She chose to eliminate Gligar, who then evolved into Gliscor, because Mightyena felt betrayed by him. Team Moltres went second and Doduo eliminated Ekans, finding him sneaky. Team Articuno went third and Smoochum, who later evolved into Jynx, eliminated Smeargle. Finally, Team Celebi went and Corphish, who then evolved into Crawdaunt, eliminated Vanillish. Glameow, evolving into Purugly, eliminated Shuppet for voting her out. Houndour, evolving into Houndoom, eliminated Mawile. Tyrogue, evolving into Hitmonchan, eliminated Masquerain. Delcatty eliminated Hitmonchan for eliminating her girlfriend. Woobat, evolving into Swoobat, eliminated Doduo. Purrloin, evolving into Liepard, eliminated Purugly because of their known rivalry. Flaaffy eliminated Blitzle. Pachirisu eliminated Liepard. Minccino eliminated Duosion. Cherrim eliminated Luxio. Vulpix, evolving into Ninetales, eliminated Mightyena. Buizel eliminated Jynx. Combee, evolving into Vespiquen, eliminated Growlithe. Misdreavus, evolving into Mismagius, eliminated Crawdaunt. Aipom eliminated Starmie. Porygon2 eliminated Houndoom. Dewgong eliminated Mismagius. Cherrim eliminated Vespiquen. Chansey eliminated Swoobat. Ponyta eliminated Eevee. Minccino eliminated a pissed off Cherrim placing Team Moltres in last place. Skipping Team Moltres's turn, Flaaffy eliminated Delcatty. Pachirisu eliminated Flaaffy. Dewgong eliminated Ponyta. Ninetales eliminated Minccino. Buizel eliminated Aipom. Dewgong eliminated Ninetales because he did not want to go for his friends on Team Celebi. Chansey, the last one standing for Team Articuno, eliminated Dewgong and Team Zapdos so that her own team wouldn't lose. In the end, Team Zapdos and Team Moltres lost and were facing the bonfire ceremony. On Team Moltres, Liepard told Vanillish she was safe if she voted Mightyena, but then went around and told the team to vote for her because she kept getting out first in challenges. On Team Zapdos, a majority existed between Dewgong, Ekans, Minccino, Swoobat, and Vespiquen. They looked at their remaining teammates: Masquerain, Purugly, Smeargle, and Starmie to see who they could afford to lose. Purugly unsuccessfully tried to rally the majority on Minccino. Ekans knew their plan and highly considered both options. At the bonfire ceremony, it came down to Mightyena and Vanillish for Team Moltres as well as Masquerain and Minccino for Team Zapdos. But, Vanillish and Masquerain got the boot.
