Monkeyman

**Season 2, Episode 22**

This is the twenty-second episode of Total Pokémon Action. One hero and one damsel is picked for each team by Jellicent. The goal is to take down the monster holding your team's damsel. It seemed to be an easy win, but it wasn't that simple and the challenge ends in a shocking way. This lead to a couple breaking up. In the end, a castmate gets what was coming to them for a few episodes.

The movie of the day is Spiderman and the challenge was basically the damsel in distress concept again. The hero picked by Jellicent for each team had to take down the monster and save their team's designated damsel. For Team Ribombee, the hero was Ambipom and the damsel was Azumarill. For Team Toucannon, the hero was Unown and the damsel was Jynx. This caused Ambipom to worry for his girlfriend Jynx. On the other hand, Unown was nervous about being in the spotlight for once but was feeling confident. Gallade asked Ambipom if he thinks he can do it to which Ambipom said yes since he likes to climb. Then, Mismagius reassured him to move fast since Unown can fly and Ambipom took off. Meanwhile, Azumarill made the most of her time held captive by asking the Grimmsnarl about himself. Unown was swiftly making his way up the tower as Ambipom decided to ditch the tower Azumarill was on. He expressed that he wanted to just win it for his team since he can't pretend he didn't throw and he thought Team Toucannon could always just vote Unown out. However, his worry for Jynx became too great. Team Ribombee thought Ambipom was so far up that they couldn't see him, but slowly they realized he left. Unown arrived to save Jynx, then Ambipom flew in to knock Grimmsnarl out and carry Jynx away leaving Unown super confused. On the ground, Ambipom expressed his worry to Jynx who was furious that he was back to throwing challenges for her. Jellicent went to them to say that since Ambipom saved the wrong girl, he gave immunity to Team Toucannon. So, Team Ribombee would see Jellicent at the awards ceremony. Also, Azumarill came to the realization that Ambipom wasn't coming to get her.

Most of Team Toucannon was in the cabin celebrating their four wins in a row. Arbok took the opportunity to reiterate the fact that Gothitelle was their curse since their winning streak started after she was eliminated. Glaceon fills in Leafeon and his friends: Shaymin, Parasect, Banette, Unown, and Castform on Espeon and Umbreon's plan to get Glaceon in the game. So, Leafeon is convinced to tell Team Toucannon the truth about his family so that they don't find out for themselves. With a heavy heart, Jynx begun to break up with Ambipom as he begged her not to. He also came clean about just how many challenges he's thrown for her which didn't help him. Overhearing all of it, Persian patted himself on the back for a job well done because he successfully sealed Ambipom's fate. And, he did just that. Persian confronted Ambipom in front of the whole team to tell them he's being throwing challenge. So, the team walked away as Ambipom realized Persian played him. At the awards ceremony, it comes down to Ambipom and Persian, but unsurprisingly Ambipom gets the boot. Jynx, feeling guilty, ran to see Ambipom off and he shot her down because he was upset over the break up.
