Tsubasa boasts his power, while Io focuses on his speed. The Bottleman of the two collide fiercely! While watching the match, Cota could not sit still, and began training with Kaori to achieve even greater strength. Bubble up to launch toward even greater heights!

### Plot

Because of Cota's mistake of standing on an unstable precipice before, he misfires Colamaru DX and costs his team's victory.

Later on one of the cable cars leading away from the battlefield, Ponta tries encouraging the dismayed Cota on how he has done well on confronting Tsubasa, who is one of the Three Champions, heads-on. But even with Ponta giving Cota a rice ball, Cota has no appetite and believes that his loss must've disappointed both Seimei and Ryo. Both boys then notice the breaking news of Tsubasa challenging Io, who is the former Bottle King, in an exhibition match.

The exhibition match between Io and Tsubasa is about them battling through Push Bottle. Mitsuya is thrilled about the match and wishes Cota would have come to watch it, but Iroha is aware that Cota is in a bad mood and hopes he would be fine, to which Mitsuya believes that Ponta can handle Cota for them. As for Ryo, he begrudgingly hopes his father can surprise him.

During the match, Tsubasa goes first with his powerful strikes via Raidbrave DX to push the bottle target. But unlike Io, who harnesses his red Aquasports DX, Tsubasa lacks the overall experiences compared to Io's skilled rapid-firing. While Ryo is disgruntled that his father still hasn't gotten rusty, Cota, who is watching the match with Ponta on one of the big screens, is surprised that Aquasports DX isn't exclusive to Ryo but instead used by his family. As explained by Ponta and later Iroha, the red Aquasports was originally made specifically for Io, before the blue Aquasports was custom-made for Ryo.

Tsubasa, seeing that one of his shots is cancelled out by Io's red Aquasports, decides to go for even more full power, but Io knows exactly how to turn the tide against Tsubasa. With his experienced rapid-firing, Tsubasa's last shot is done for by the successive caps from Io, who declares that he hasn't been feeling passionate for Bottle Battling in a long time. While Ryo is frustrated with his father's victory, Tsubasa accepts his defeat with honor. Io thanks Tsubasa for the battle, and Tsubasa feels he has become more motivated than before on pursuing his goal on becoming the next Bottle King. However, behind the scenes, Io clutches his shoulders, remembering that he has already past his prime.

After watching the exhibition match, Cota regains his mojo for Bottle Battling, and leaves the scene after eating Ponta's rice ball and notifying Ponta of such. In a dark chamber, however, Leo Kinjishi has been observing the match the whole time, and comments on how he could've easily devoured Io if he were there in place of his fellow champion Tsubasa.

The next day, Mitsuya is chatting with Iroha on how he didn't eat and just did EZ Plays after watching the exhibition match, which Iroha agrees with how he couldn't sleep due to being too excited. They then notice Cota practicing shooting caps with Colamaru, and Cota tells them that he has established his goal of defeating Tsubasa and later Io. His two friends soon break the reality to him, on how he should be raising his ranks first, so he can rise from bronze to higher ranks, and they proceed debriefing him with how ranks work. To their surprise, Cota has become more pumped up on his road to Bottle Battling.

Just as the three boys are laughing it out, Kaori arrives to be Cota's sparring partner. This makes the three boys sweat over having to tolerate with their female friend's over-zealousness again.

Meanwhile, Machiko expresses suspicions on Ryo growing fond of Bottle Battling again. Ryo denies and says he will still destroy Bottle Battling.

Kaori and Cota proceed having a battle of Strikeout. Unable to contain her excitement, Kaori instantly vaunts her newly made Bottleman partner Docpepion DX to Cota. She subsequently brags about its rollers which assist for smooth shots, and also its highly stabilized hook trigger that allows her to fire with a single hand. After having to reclaim Kaori's attention from fondling Docpepion back to battling, Cota fires his first shot, with Mitsuya as the referee. Unfortunately, his poor precision fails his shot, and to his friends' surprise, he also realizes he has lost his "bubbling" connection with Colamaru...
