Summary
The narrator started by announcing all the segments that would be on today's show and then said: "Okay! It's time for a Pokémon Entertainment Show! Pokémon Smash!". Golgo started the show by asking Shoko-tan which she you choose: Black or White? Shoko-tan chose 'White' and Professor Red chose 'Black'.

This week was a Special Edition of the Pokémon Library (ポケモンライブラリー特別編). Pokémon Smash! rebroadcast Pocket Monsters Best Wishes 25 - Hiun Gym Match! Purehearted Bug Pokémon Battle!! (ヒウンジム戦! 純情ハートの虫ポケモンバトル!!) due to the Sendai Earthquake and tsunami that disrupted many people's schedules and as a result they were unable to see the original airing of the episode. The episode originally aired on March 17th, 2011 only a few days after the Sendai Earthquake and tsunami. There was no episode theme this week and Professor Red did his usual "OK! Pokémon Library" go-to line.

After the Pokémon Library episode, the Internation Division girls showed up. The Black-white Cheering Showdown! Who Will Watch the Black Pokémon Movie? How About the White One? was introduced and the VTR was then shown. Robert of the Adventure Division decided they would promote Victini and the Dark Hero - Zekrom (ビクティニと黒き英雄ゼクロム) while the International Division girls decided they would promote Victini and the Light Hero - Reshiram (ビクティニと白き英雄レシラム).

They started off at Mejiro Station (目白駅) where the two groups argued which one was better. Hana ends up telling them in English: "No Black! White!". Their objective was to: "Find a store or person associated with black or white, between the Mejiro and Meguro stations on the Yamanote Line!" (山手線の目白駅から目黒駅までの範囲で黒か白に関係したお店や人を探す!)

To help the two teams, some of the SKE48 members joined the teams. Akiyama made fun of Yamamoto by saying his 'group' name was HiRoShi32歳. Hiroshi Yamamoto is 32 years old. SKE48 is a Japanese Idol group who was previously on Pokémon Smash #22 to promote their new track "Banzai Venus" (バンザイ Venus). Yuria Kizaki (木﨑ゆりあ), Rumi Katō (加藤るみ), Sawako Hata (秦佐和子) went on Team Victini and the Dark Hero - Zekrom (ビクティニと黒き英雄ゼクロム) with Robert while Akane Takayanagi (高柳明音), Anna Ishida (石田安奈) and Shiori Kaneko (金子栞) went on Team Victini and the Light Hero - Reshiram (ビクティニと白き英雄レシラム) with the International Division girls.

Team Reshiram found their first store Mejiro Pharmacy (目薬局). The managed to get 11 points out of it as they were able to get the store to support the movie as well as put a poster up by the register. The continued walking and Hana spotted another store and they were able to get another 11 points. They then visited the shop 'quiche quiche' that sold 'White Devil' and 'Black Angel' quiche and they got yet another 11 points from that store. They met a girl Shiroishi(石) and they got her to support them giving Team Reshiram another 5 points.

Team Zekrom was at the Rokugo-dori Shopping Center where they got one point for getting the support of the Sweet Bar because they had croissants(クロワッサン). They got 1 point for that. The started walking again and they found another store called Kagoshima Kurobuta where they were able to get the store to support the movie as well as put a poster up on the wall to give them 11 points.

Team Reshiram found another store called White Cloud Tokyo that did Yoga where they got another 11 points. The got another shop to also put up the poster for another 11 points. Team Zekrom found a shop called Silk Road (シルクロード) and they were able to get support of the store but no poster so they only got 1 point. The teams then met up to compare scores. Team Zekrom had 13 points while Team Reshiram had 60 points. They ended up getting an extra 15 points for the ramen name. They all decided to go out to see if they could get some more points.

During Mijumaru's tweet corner they announced the new ending theme for Pocket Monsters Best Wishes: Can You Say the Pokémon? BW (ポケモン言えるかな?BW) which aired at the end of Thursday's episode replacing Fanfare of the Heart (心のファンファーレ). The song has a very fast tempo song like the previous naming songs. It is sung by Shōgo Toda (戸田昭吾).



The two teams continued finding shops and then met up at the end to see if they managed to improve their scores at all. Team Reshiram ending up winning with 86 points while Team Zekrom had only 52 points.

Int'l Div must not be fulfilling the small girl quota.
I wonder if that means Pokémon Black is more popular in Japan?
White seems to be all the rage around here.
