Summary
The announcer introduced the show by saying: "PokéMorning! Welcome back! Today we are going to feature Pokémon game battle right here on Pokémon Smash! Let's jump right in!". Golgo started by introducing the new tournament and showing the tournament tree.

Yamamoto introduced this weeks rerun episode as part of the Pokémon Library and he also announces this weeks theme, A cutie is a rose; beware of the thorns. (かわいいものにはトゲがある). This weeks Pokémon Library rerun episode was The Most Horrible Togepi of All Time! (史上最悪のトゲピー!) from the Diamond and Pearl series. A full summary of that episode is available in the episode guide. Professor Red said his go-to line 'OK! Pokémon Library!' to start the repeat episode.

After the Pokémon Library episode, the International division girls showed up. The narrator then reviewed the history of the tournament. In Pokémon Sunday #206, the first tournament was held. Baba ended up winning that while Shoko-tan was the runner up. In Pokémon Sunday #253, the second tournament was held. Shoko-tan ended up winning after defeating Baba in the finals. In Pokémon Sunday #305, the third tournament was held. Yamamoto ended up winning that tournament. Now for the fourth tournament, Yamamoto and Shoko-tan were placed at opposite ends of the tournament tree as they were the top seeds. Since only 8 players could participate in the tournament structure, Maria and Hana had a qualifying battle which Maria won.

The remaining tournament participants each selected a ball with an number on it out of a box to determine who they would be matched up against. Game Freak Game Designers Shigeki Morimoto and Junichi Masuda both showed up to be spectators. Morimoto was previously on Pokémon Smash #21 to help the Pokémon Smash crew with their battling techniques. The tournament tree match-ups for the first round were: Baba VS Yamamoto, Misaki VS Professor Red, Golgo VS Akiyama and Maria VS Shoko-tan. All Pokémon in the tournament were level limited to 50, but not all Pokémon were level up'd to 50 and the battles were 4VS4.

Baba VS Yamamoto - Round 1 - Battle 1

Thumbnail In the third tournament, Yamamoto ended up beating Baba but Baba said then that he would exact his revenge on Yamamoto in the 4th tournament. Yamamoto sent out Elphoon and Sazandora while Baba sent out Zuruzukin and Ulgamoth. Baba knocked out Yamamoto's Elphoon and Yamamoto then sent out his Burungel. Baba then switched out his Zuruzukin for his Sazandora. Baba's Sazandora then knocked out Baba's Sazandora. Yamamoto then sent out his last Pokémon, Hihidaruma. Yamamoto used Hihidaruma's Flare Blitz to knock out Baba's Sazandora. Yamamoto's Burungel then knocked out Baba's Ulgamoth. Baba then sent out his Zuruzukin and his final Pokémon, Archeos. Yamamoto's Burungel was knocked out by Archeos's Stone Edge and then moments later Stone Edge knocked out Yamamoto's Hihidaruma to give Baba the win.

Misaki VS Profesor Red - Round 1 - Battle 2

Thumbnail Professor Red started off by sending out his Enbuoh and Swanna. Misaki sent out her Dageki and Kojondo. Professor Red's Enbuoh knocked out Misaki's Kojondo with a one hit Flare Blitz. She sent out her Roubushin to replace it. Professor Red's Enbuoh delt significant damage using Flamethrower on Dageki but revealed it as a Zoroark using its Illusion ability. Misaki fought back though knocking out Red's Enbuoh and Swanna fairly quickly. Red then sent out his Crimgan and Ononokus. The battle fast forwarded and came to a point where Misaki had her real Dageki out and she knocked out Red's Ononokus using Close Combat. Red fought back with his Crimgan's Outrage to knock out her Dageki. The battle was down to Red's Crimgan and Misaki's Roubushin. Misaki's Roubushin had the next move and she used Stone Edge to win the battle.

Golgo VS Akiyama - Round 1 - Battle 3

Thumbnail Not all the battle was shown and it started off with both of them only having 3 Pokémon left. Akiyama had Mooland and Chillaccino while Golgo had his Dageki and Archeos out in the battle. The clip shows Golgo winning by using Close Combat on Akiyama's Bassrao. Unfortunately very little was shown of this particular battle probably because it wasn't as interesting as the other battles that took place in the tournament and also Akiyama didn't really seem to be interested too much in the tournament this time as he wasn't as enthusiastic and energetic as he normally is.

Maria VS Shoko-tan - Round 1 - Battle 4

Thumbnail In the third tournament, Shoko-tan was devastated when Yamamoto ended up winning that tournament but now her rival has already been defeated. Shoko-tan sent out her Burungel and Kojondo while Maria sent out her Zebraika and Warrgle. Shoko-tan changed out her Burungel for her Ulgamoth right off the bat after seeing Maria's Zebraika. After being damaged by Maria's Zebraika's Thunderbolt, Shoko-tan switched out her Archeos in place of her Kojondo. Maria then knocked out Shoko-tan's Ulgamoth with another Thunderbolt. Shoko-tan sent out her Kojondo again to replace her knocked out Ulgamoth. Shoko-tan then switched out her Kojondo again for her Burungel while her Archeos knocked out Maria's Warrgle. The battle then fast-forwards to show Shoko-tan's Burungel knocking out Maria's Chandela. Shoko-tan's Archeos then used Rock Slide to finsh off Maria's Zebraika as well. That left Maria with just her alternate colored Sazandora but it was knocked out by Shoko-tan's Archeos' Acrobatics attack to give Shoko-tan the win.

Baba VS Misaki - Round 2 - Battle 1

Thumbnail Miskai sent out her Dageki and Ulgamoth while Baba sent out his Zuruzukin and Symboler. Baba's Symboler finished off Misaki's Ulgamoth with an Air Slash. Misaki then sent out her Roubushin to replace her Ulgamoth and it used Bark Out (バークアウト) to knock out Baba's Symboler. Misaki's Roubushin also then knocked out Baba's Zuruzukin with Close Combat. Baba then sent out his Ulgamoth and Lanculus. Misaki's Dageki was knocked out by a Sandstorm. Misaki then sent out another Roubushin. Baba attacked and the first one was revealed to be her Zoroark as the Bark Out (バークアウト) move had previously hinted at that. Misaki then knocked out Baba's Ulgamoth with a Stone Edge attack leaving Baba with only his Lanculus at 18 HP. Baba though was able to fight back as he knocked out Misaki's Roubushin on his next round with a Psychic attack and Misaki's Zoroark got knocked out right after as it took burn damage from a previous attack to give Baba the victory and advance to the finals.

Golgo VS Shoko-tan - Round 2 - Battle 2

ThumbnailThe winner of this battle would face Baba in the finals. Golgo sent out his Muggyo and Shibirudon while Shoko-tan sent out her Archeos and Kojondo. Golgo's Shibirudon used Rock Slide to finsh off Shoko-tan's Archeos. She sent out her Sazandora to replace it. Golgo then switched out his Shibirudon for his Freegeo. Shoko-tan switched out her Kojondo for her Burungel. Shoko-tan used Draco Meteor to knock out Golgo's Freegeo though. Golgo sent out his Archeos to replace his Freegeo. Shoko-tan's Burungel used Scald to deal significant damage to Golgo's Muggyo and knock out his Archeos. Shoko-tan used Draco Meteor again to knock out Golgo's Muggyo leaving him only with his Shibirudon but it had hardly any HP left and Shoko-tan ended up winning.

Baba VS Shoko-tan - Finals

ThumbnailIn Pokémon Sunday #206, the first tournament was held. Baba ended up winning that while Shoko-tan was the runner up. Now in the 4th tournament, the two meet again for a rematch. Baba starts off by saying he will not loose. Baba sent out his Zuruzukin and Sazandora while Shoko-tan sent out her Archeos and Kojondo, the same starting combo she sent out against Golgo in her last battle. Shoko-tan's Kojondo knocked out Baba's Zuruzukin with a Hi Jump Kick. Shoko-tan's Archeos then K.O'd Baba's Sazandora with an Acrobatics attack. Baba then sent out his Archeos and Ulgamoth. Shoko-tan's Kojondo knocked out Baba's Archeos with a Hi Jump Kick leaving him only with his Ulgamoth against all four of Shoko-tan's Pokémon. Baba was able to take out both Shoko-tan's Archeos and Kojondo before Shoko-tan sent out her Sazandora and Burungel finished him off to give Shoko-tan the victory and make her the 4th tournament's champion.

I finally got back and found some time to watch this episode. This was a good battle tournament but they all seemed to overuse Sazandora and Archeos in this tournament, so there really wasn't any variety in the battle. At one point there was an Archeos vs Archeos battle and Yamamoto stated it would be a battle to see which one is faster. Would have been nice to see different Pokemon in the battle but you battle with what's good and what you know to win.

Baba had a horrible final round against Shoko-tan which is unfortunate but he just barely managed to beat Misaki anyhow.
