The announcer introduced the show by saying: "And today we will produce our new Pokémon Bakery on Pokémon Smash!". Yamamoto announced that Gunma Prefecture Day (群馬県民の日) was on October 28th. "In 1871, the Meiji Government abolished feudal domains and instead put in place prefectures to enhance centralization of power." (Source). Students generally have the day off from school but teachers don't. Yamamoto then playing as a teacher had a fill in the blank question for the crew: Stand! Eyes Forward! Bow! Return to seat! (起立! 注目! 礼! 着席!). Baba and Akiyama managed to solve it and then Yamamoto left the room and the rest of the crew acted out the saying as if they were students by standing, looking at Yamamoto, bowing to him and then returning to their seats.

Akiyama introduced this weeks rerun episode as part of the Pokémon Library. The theme for the episode was: Don't forget that warm feeling! (やさしい気持ちをわすれないで!). This weeks Pokémon Library rerun episode was A Nokocchi 'nok'-off!? (ノコッチはのこっちない!?) from the original 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 kids showed up and there was a desk of Pokémon merchandise. The kids and Shoko-tan began using the merchandise to start making Halloween related Pokémon paper cutouts. They showed off all the different items viewers could buy at the same time. Shoko-tan also showed off the Halloween picture she drew.

Robert and the International Division went off to the Daiichipan plant where they make Pokémon Bread. They were sent there to help commission the 'Pokémon Smash! Pokémon Bread'. Naoki Matsui (松井直樹), the Yokohama factory manager (横浜工場 工場長) greeted them along with some of the workers.

The were then given a guided tour of the plant. They then each tried one of the Melonetta Sponge Cakes (メロエッタの蒸しカステラ). After the tour was over, they went into one of the side rooms to determine what ingredients they should use in the Pokémon Smash! Pokémon Bread. They wanted to make a unique and original bread. Neese decided to make one with Caviar (キャビア) and Maple Syrup (メープルシロップ). Niccolo decided to make one with Salami (サラミ) and Cotton Candy (わたがし).

They continued testing a bunch of different combinations until they finally chose Maru's Strawberry Jam (イチゴジャム) and White Bean Jam (白あん) as the winner. Akiyama made an Usokkie out of a wafer, vegetables and the bread. Golgo, Red and Shoko-tan tried it back at the studio and they all enjoyed it. The will be distributed with the name "Audino, I guess it's pretty good-bread" (めちゃめちゃうまいよ!タブンネ…パン). It was made available in Japan starting on November 1st, 2012.
