Summary
Episode 76 of Pokémon Get TV, A Decisive Battle on Ice! Pikachu VS Vivillon! / Robert's Segment 'A Great Assembly of Pokémon Art Masters' has Artists Connected to the Movie Show Off Amazing Art! aired this Sunday.

The episode starts as usual with the hosts greeting the audience, but as Taka turns to give Shokotan his usual "You're really cute today too, Shokotan" line, he notices she's missing. As they look around for her a bit, Taka decides he'll just have to deal with it and tells Yukito he's really cute today too instead, as Toshi smacks him. The door goes up and Shokotan runs in, apologizing for being late. She explains she was trying to get a hold of "those people" they're having on today, but was having a bit of trouble. She says they'll just have to call them in anyway and signals to the door, and Ryuji Akiyama and Hoopa walk in. Taka and Toshi ask why Akiyama is alone this time and where Yamamoto and Baba are, and Akiyama says they got the date wrong and aren't coming. "Hoopa will do something about it", says Hoopa and makes one of it rings fly off its ear, enlarge and summon Baba and Yamamoto from it with the word "Appear!". Yamamoto says he was in the middle of boxing practice and Baba says he was in the middle of cooking, as Akiyama tells them they're supposed to be hyping the movie on PokéTV today. The other two tells them he is the one that told them it was tomorrow and an embarrassed Akiyama apologizes. The narrator says that now that everyone's in place, they can move on to the next segment.

PokéTV Animation

Today, Yukito is joined on the set by Shokotan. Today's anime episode is A Decisive Battle on Ice! Pikachu VS Vivillon!, the sixth episode of Pocket Monsters XY. The scene Yukito has picked is Satoshi's night training, as he tells the viewers to pay attention to Satoshi's hard work and how it leads to a mutual understanding between him and his Pokémon. He goes on to explain how Satoshi trains with his Pokémon until late at night in order to prepare for his rematch against Viola after his loss last time, how he keeps going "I want to win!", how they aim for the top together and how Satoshi and his Pokémon communicate each others determination to each other, how they walk together up this figurative staircase. Shokotan interrupts him just as he's about to finish and laughs at his exaggerated delivery, then laughs again as he apologizes like a girl for it.

A Great Assembly of Pokémon Art Masters

The narrator mentions how Robert previously hosted a Pokémon performance show where performers somehow related to rings hyped up the movie with their acts, and that we're going to get a follow-up to this show today. Akiyama introduces today's segment as "A Great Assembly of Pokémon Art Masters" and the narrator explains that every year, the movie is promoted with an annual art contest where contestants color a provided base drawing and add in their favorite Pokémon in the empty areas around it, showing an example submission drawn by Shokotan. In order to celebrate this art contest, they'll have a number of artists specializing in unique artforms on today, creating artwork based on the Pokémon movie in their own special style.

The first artist is "Latte Artist George". The narrator explains that "latte art" is pictures drawn in caffe latte foam and that at his café, George draws lots of such pictures in his customers' cups at their request. George starts making a cup of latte on the set as it's explained that it's important to pour the milk in so it takes the rough form of the image he wants. Once the milk is in the cup, George starts drawing in it with the tip of an iron pin, pulling bits of the coffee-colored foam into the pure white as Taka points out he's not even using a rough sketch to look at. After completing the picture, George finally turns the cup over and presents the final work, a drawing of Satoshi and Pikachu.

Robert explain that George can also create 3D latte art, showing a couple examples, and George explains that there are techniques used to make latte foam stand up, so he thought about what kind of art he could create with that. Robert say they've asked George to create a 3D picture of Hoopa and he gets to work, using a gold-rimmed cup to represent Hoopa's rings. After pouring thick and semi-solid foam into the cup, he starts modeling, being careful not to touch the foam too much, as it's explain that he has to work fast before the foam collapses on its own. After finishing, he turns the cup around, presenting a grinning 3D Hoopa in the cup.

Robert call in the next artist, banana sculptor Keisuke Yamada. Robert show off a couple pictures of his art, as Yamada explains that he can scrape off bits of the banana he's not going to use and put these bits as protrusions elsewhere. The narrator explains that Yamada has selected one of the legendary Pokémon Hoopa summons to base his artwork on, as Yamamoto adds that Yamada started working on this sculpture just two hours ago and has already finished it. We're shown clips of Yamada sculpting in the back room, with the narrator explaining that Yamada starts by carefully selecting a banana that fits the exact form of the sculpture he's making, then starts cutting the peel with a fine cutter, as he's going to use the peel as part of his sculpture. He then starts sculpting the fruit itself, using a spoon for the rough cuts and for scraping the sides of the sculpture smooth, then using a toothpick for the tiny details. We cut back to the studio itself, as Yamada pulls down a curtain and reveals the finished sculpture he made in the image of Lugia, as the narrator explains that he used bits cut from another banana to create the scales for Lugia's back. Baba asks what kind of bananas Yamada prefers and he says he likes Philippine bananas the best, since they're soft and thus easier to carve. Yukito asks if he eats the sculptures afterwards and Yamada replies that he indeed does, demonstrating by biting the Lugia's head of as the hosts laugh at the lighthearted attitude he has towards his art.

The next artist is called in, sprayart artist YOSHI, a master of creating strange and wonderful worlds using nothing but spraypaint. We're shown a few examples of his work before YOSHI himself does a quick demonstration, creating a space scene by first spraying a part of his canvas with spraypaint in two different colors, the second partially overlapping the other. He then places a magazine page over it and runs his hand over it a few times, then removes it to reveal that the paint that stuck to the page has created a spotty pattern. He repeats this elsewhere on the canvas, this time crumbling the magazine page before putting it on, demonstrating how this changes the pattern it creates. Finally, he places pot lids over the patterns he has created and sprays the entire canvas with black paint, then sprays white paint on his finger so he can splatter small drops onto the canvas, creating images of stars. He then removes the lids, which have created images of round planets due to shielding the bottom layer from the black paint. Finally, he holds a ruler over the canvas and sprays it with white paint, creating white lines that form the shape of a glowing sun.

It's now time for YOSHI to create a picture based on the Pokémon movie. He starts by lightly spraying silver spray on a black canvas, before placing previously made stencils of Hoopa on top of it and spraying them with colored paint. Next, he starts spraying paint next to Hoopa in rolling motions, then blending them together with his hands, creating the shape of the inside of Hoopa's rings as it summons Pokémon from them. YOSHI then says that since this is a Pokémon picture, he's going to use actual sapphires in it, sprinkling such over the canvas in honor of the name "Alpha Sapphire". He then places a lid over this bit of the canvas and sprays around it with black paint again, before revealing his final picture, where the sapphires have created a 3D effect inside the ring. He also mentions that he used real rubies to create a similar effect on Hoopa's head to honor the name "Omega Ruby".

Finally, the last artist comes in: Sand artist Masako Iimen (飯面雅子). Robert and the narrator explain that sand art is art created by drawing in sand with your hands. Since you can easily change how the picture looks, you can even tell animated stories this way. Iimen starts working on a Pokémon picture, explaining while she works that she can use her nails to draw fine lines in addition to the thicker ones she makes with her fingers. After drawing a shape in the form of Pikachu, she starts filling in the details, dropping small bits of sand in the middle of its head to form the eyes, then shoving it into the shape of smiling eyes with her finger.

After this quick demonstration, she starts on an actual animated scene from the movie, drawing the shape of a structure, then creating a ring around it and morphing the details inside the ring into a picture of Hoopa, completely changing the scene. She then creates an image of Primal Kyogre coming out of Hoopa's ring, completely overlapping it, before creating the effect of a waterspout covering the entire background scene, once again completely altering the picture, explaining that she added in colored sand to create an additional color effect. The narrator gives some further details on the movie, telling us that the structure we saw in this picture was Déser Tower, the symbol of Déser City and an important part of the movie's setting. As Iimen explains how she uses the underlying picture to create new pictures on top, Yamamoto asks if it's not a waste to ruin your own pictures like this. Iimen says it sort of is, but since it gets recorded on video, everything gets preserved that way. Taka compares it with how he used to draw love declarations in the sand at beaches, then got sad when the waves washed it away, showing a video of a love umbrella with Taka and Shoko's names in it as an example. The narrator ends the segment by once again reminding everyone about the movie art contest, which runs until April 17th.

Taka asks if they're done and Akiyama says he has one more artist to showcase: Himself, as a body artist. He takes off his shirt and calls for music, then does an "impression" of the Mona Lisa with the help of a cardboard cutout and a picture frame as Toshi point out that the Mona Lisa isn't naked. Akiyama then starts moving his body as if he's using a fishing rod before pulling off the Mona Lisa face and revealing the face of Tatsuo Umemiya, as the hosts laugh at how it looked just like him.

Arceus Movie Event

After the commercial break, Yukito and Robin head to 7-Eleven, asking if the viewers have received their event Arceus yet. Robin says he's there to receive it today and the two of them explain how it's done. Yukito shows the special pre-order ticket and present guide you need to purchase first and Robin adds that you then need to take your X/Y/OR/AS game to a place where you can connect to the Internet. Yukito says the 7-Spot in all 7-Eleven can be used for this, which is very handy, since you can get the Arceus right after buying the ticket. To get the Arceus, you then just choose Mystery Gift from the title menu, enter the present code found on your ticket, start the game and talk to the woman in blue at the Pokémon Center to receive your Arceus. Very easy. The Arceus is level 100 and knows the move Judgment, which only it can learn.

PokéToru Challenge

Shokotan introduces the next segment, which they're doing to hype up the newest Pokémon game, PokéToru. After the narrator gives a quick introduction to the game, Shokotan asks the others if they know that a new PokéTV tie-in stage has been added to the game. They don't, so she goes on to explain that it's a special stage that gives you the chance to get Rayquaza, and that they'll be playing that stage on the show today. Taka says he'll play and calls Baba over for additional support and advice. The Rayquaza stage gives your 30 moves to beat Rayquaza, who will be summoning hindrances every time the turn counter next to it reaches 0. Taka follows Baba's advice, getting of some good combos and quickly filling the mega gauge for his Onigohri, mega evolving it with 24 turns left.

The narrator explains that Mega Onigohri clears Pokémon in a V shaped pattern every time it's matched, which can create huge combos, and Baba tells Taka he needs to just focus on doing that from here on. Taka gets off some good combos until Rayquaza's hindrances removes some of the Mega Onigohri he needed and the narrator explains that after you've cleared many Pokémon, Rayquaza will eventually start creating more and more hindrances. Taka struggles quite a bit, but eventually manages to beat Rayquaza with 5 moves left. He tries throwing a monster ball at it to get it, but it breaks out, the rate only being 17%. Yukito says Rayquaza isn't easy to get, but Shoko says that if you keep trying, you'll eventually manage, adding that this special stage can be played until April 20th and tells everyone to play it until they manage to get the Pokémon. The narrator explains that to access the stage, you just click the Check In button on the game's map screen, after which the downloaded stage can be played from the Event stage screen.

Taka is about to ends the show, but Toshi stops him and asks Baba if he didn't have anything he wanted to say. Baba replies. "Producer Toshi. No, I have nothing at all."
