Heartbreak at the Museum

**Season 2, Episode 23**

This is the twenty-third episode of Total Pokémon Action. A castmate's big secret comes out that shakes up the game as the castmates know it. They're also put to the test to see how long they can stand perfectly still like a statue. But, in the end, a certain castmate asked their team to vote them out because they weren't in the mental headspace to continue. So, in a shocking turn of events, they got the boot.

Jellicent told the castmates that their movie of the day is Night at the Museum. She also informs them that their challenge is to stay still like a statue and the last team with member(s) remaining wins. They're allowed to move their faces just not their heads or bodies. Team Ribombee, particularly Gallade, are motivated to end their losing streak and Absol said they better. On the other hand, Team Toucannon was alerted by Jynx's crying over her breakup with Ambipom. Milotic just wants it to stop. Floatzel and Porygon-Z got bored and dropped out. On the way out, Floatzel cracked a joke that made Carnivine and Delcatty laugh, causing them to get eliminated from the challenge too. Arbok and Banette dropped out because of "cramps," which annoys Vespiquen. But, Arbok explains that they really just wanted to sabotage the other team. Arbok and Banette both use Scary Face to scare and successfully eliminate Ampharos, Gastrodon, Sudowoodo, Chimecho, and Masquerain. Wailord also dropped out because he's hungry. Since Staraptor and Azumarill were standing on him and fell down, they're eliminated by default. Wailord knocked over and or distracted Parasect, Leafeon, Drifblim, Gorebyss, Froslass, Luvdisc, Houndoom, Cherrim, Farfetch'd, and Dewgong which eliminated all of them. Jellicent disqualified Jynx as well for crying and being annoying. Milotic expressed that crying so much over Ambipom's elimination was so unnecessary. However, Jynx explained that she was crying over the break up not the elimination. Ninetales dropped out because she had to pee and Persian uses the same excuse just to be eliminated even though he didn't have to. He used the time to blow some pepper at Dragonite and caused her sneeze on Milotic, Luxray, Girafarig, Castform, and Unown. They all got eliminated leaving only Vespiquen for Team Toucannon. Bisharp and Lopunny dropped out to do some sabotage as well. Lopunny told Bisharp to slash the shelf that Vespiquen was on for the challenge. She fell down and was eliminated, meaning Team Ribombee won the challenge. Bisharp helped the angered Vespiquen up and told her that it was all for the challenge and that it was Lopunny's idea. She opened his eyes a bit that maybe he doesn't need to do everything she tells him to. Also, a small rivalry was formed between the two. It cuts immediately to Team Toucannon's elimination ceremony. The bottom two was Leafeon because he came out with the truth about him being related to the twins earlier and Jynx because she would not stop crying and they didn't want a repeat of last season when Ambipom left. Jynx gives a sad goodbye to her alliance and it's revealed that she asked to be eliminated because she didn't feel strong enough to continue on. Of course, Jellicent was annoyed because she prefers blindsides.
