Your Ninja Way

**Season 2, Episode 39**

This is the thirty-ninth episode of Total Pokémon Action. Veteran Swoobat makes a cameo to train the remaining 23 castmates in the way of the ninja. Their challenge is to win a ninja star throwing fight. A castmate gets eliminated for just not having the numbers.

Jellicent welcomes back Swoobat and reassures the castmates that he is just making a cameo, not joining the game. Per the new producer's orders, they need to give him more screen time. So, they learn that their movie(s) of the day are the Naruto movies. Their challenge is to win and be the last standing in a ninja star throwing fight. Whoever remains wins for their team as usual. Swoobat explains that he's their to coach them however he can. Dewgong and Milotic are trying to find other castmates when Milotic starts to talk way too loud and blow their cover. Then, Swoobat arrives with Bellossom and Pachirisu who take the couple out. The couple of Leafeon and Shaymin ambush Arbok and Zoroark, taking them out. Then, Carnivine and Delcatty take each other out and leave to go get food. Gastrodon and Sudowoodo think they have Ninetales cornered, but Persian and Purugly come to her aid. But, it's turned back on them when Girafarig, Mismagius, and Vespiquen show up. Persian gets away, but Ninetales and Purugly aren't so lucky. Swoobat is with Drifblim and Gliscor, but they get ambushed by Mismagius and Vespiquen. Mismagius takes out Drifblim, but gets taken out by Gliscor as he's taken out by Vespiquen. Vespiquen gets off scot-free. Bellossom and Pachirisu are in the tree tops, but they both miss a jump and fall in front of Floatzel and Porygon-Z who have to take them out. But, their ninja stars fall on Houndoom and he's taken out too. Vespiquen sneaks up on Leafeon and Shaymin, then takes Shaymin out. But, Leafeon avenges her. Gastrodon and Sudowoodo show up on the scene to get Leafeon out. Vespiquen is upset because she was under the impression that they were going to ambush the couple together, but they used her. However, as upset Vespiquen was, she started to realize that they really don't like her and she doesn't like what it had come to. Girafarig eliminates Persian, then Gastrodon and Sudowoodo show up to team up. But, Floatzel comes up from behind and takes them out. Then, Porygon-Z comes from the other side and takes out Girafarig. Jellicent shows up and declares Floatzel and Porygon-Z the winners for Team Darkrai.

Team Darkrai heads back to their trailer and Ninetales finds a note on the door telling Leafeon to meet an unknown person in a spot. Leafeon figures out that it's Espeon and Umbreon, so he and Shaymin meet them on a rooftop. The twins make them an offer to give them the info on everybody or they'll finally leave. Leafeon thinks hard about it. On the way out, Umbreon stops and spots Mismagius far away. She sees him too. Meanwhile, Swoobat says a sad goodbye to his friends Delcatty, Dewgong, Drifblim, Floatzel, Pachirisu, Porygon-Z, and Vespiquen. Then, Bellossom calls Delcatty and Pachirisu to their alliance meeting. Vespiquen leaves to go to hers. Mismagius shows up late to the alliance meeting with Girafarig, Vespiquen, and Zoroark and she is blushing from seeing Umbreon. They tease her about it to lighten the mood. Bellossom takes charge of the alliance meeting with Arbok, Delcatty, Gastrodon, Pachirisu, and Sudowoodo to discuss their 4 options: Girafarig, Mismagius, Vespiquen, and Zoroark. Gastrodon and Sudowoodo are tired of being told what to do by Arbok, so they say that they don't want to vote Girafarig or Zoroark because they're better for challenges. Arbok strongly disagrees as they lose challenges anyway, but he suggests Mismagius as the target because she will fly under the radar. On the other hand, Gastrodon and Sudowoodo are worried about Vespiquen's rage. So, they put it to a vote. At the awards ceremony, it comes down to Delcatty and Mismagius, but Mismagius gets the boot. The fan favorite walks the red carpet and leaves in the limo.
