Can You Say the Pokémon? BW
Summary
The announcer introduced what was on the show. He started the show by saying: "Hi! Time again and we'll bring you the special edition of Pokémon Smash featuring Pokémon movies!" The episode started with the entire crew on set as Golgo walked in with a Victini mask on. Shoko-tan introduced that the episode would be a dedicated special to the 14th Pocket Monsters movies Victini and the Light Hero - Reshiram / Victini and the Dark Hero - Zekrom (ビクティニと白き英雄レシラム / ビクティニと黒き英雄ゼクロム)

Shoko-tan introduced this weeks rerun episode as part of the Pokémon Library and he also announces this weeks theme, Understanding each others feelings even when separated! (はなれていても気持ちは必ず通じる!). This weeks Pokémon Library rerun episode was Pokémon Ranger! The Wave-Guiding Riolu!! (Part 1)(ポケモンレンジャー!波導のリオル!!(前編)) 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, they showed quick interviews of people who had just finished watching the new movies at the theater. The announcer also reminded the audience that Zekrom and Reshiram were both being distributed at Japanese theaters for players that brought their Pokémon Black or White games. Zekrom and Reshiram both have the OT of Satoshi (サトシ). Players that brought Pokémon Black to the theater got Zekrom while players that brought Pokémon White received Reshiram. Detailed information about Satoshi's Zekrom and Satoshi's Reshiram are available in the Event database.

Maria was then caught trying to touch her nose with her tongue. Kōichi Yamadera (山寺宏一) the voice of Momont and Takeshi Tsuruno (つるの剛士) the voice of Dread in the 14th movies joined the PokéSmash crew on set. They were both there to participate in the Pokémon Movie Quiz Tournament as a Movie Premiere Commemmoration event. While talking to Takeshi Tsuruno, Robert brought up Can You Say the Pokémon? BW (ポケモン言えるかな? BW) which he sings at the time of this episodes airing was the ending theme for both Pocket Monsters Best Wishes and Pokémon Smash. Takeshi Tsuruno decided to sing the song but after a few verses the crew finally got him to stop singing the song. A chart of Kōichi Yamadera (山寺宏一) voice acting roles in the Pocket Monsters movies over the past 14 years was shown. He then quickly showed his voice acting talent by switching voices.

It was good to hear Every Little Thing sing Sora live. She was a bit flat during the song but at least that shows it was a live performance of the song and not some canned recorded song like SKE48 did with their performance.
