The thirtieth episode of the anime series Battle Spirits Double Drive.
Shunta and the others challenge Sandrat, in order to get the RatTwelveGodKing.
Summary
Sandrat and Shaushau celebrate their success with a feast. While this is happening, Sandrat's former friends show up, wondering why he hasn't left town yet. Sandrat proudly declares that he's a hero chosen by the 12 God-Kings now. He has the legendary one-of-a-kind card, RatTwelveGodKing Mouchuu. Of course, his friends don't believe it, and insist it must be a fake. Thus, Sandrat has to battle for proof. He announces that anyone will do, but wasn't expecting Shunta to answer.
To avoid a battle with Shunta, Sandrat plans to retreat. However, he's dragged into it anyway, when his friends question him for not wanting to go up against a few kids. However, Sandrat begs that they don't risk any cards over the battle. Mei thinks that maybe Sandrat is being nice, not wanting to take any of their cards. Shunta doubts it, but assumes they have no chance of losing anyway, so it doesn't matter. Yoku reluctantly accepts Sandrat's proposal, though.
Shunta is Sandrat's opponent, as planned. But before the battle, Sandrat hid Mouchuu in his hair. He pulls it out and uses it on his first turn (Turn 2), because it has only a cost of 2 and can be summoned already. Using it and a magic combo, he defeats Shunta on that turn.
Though Shunta is traumatized, Mei is impressed, and asks to battle Sandrat too. He's defeated in the same way, however. Finally, Yoku goes. He suspects Sandrat was cheating, but loses, regardless.
Later, the heroes contemplate their situation. If Mouchuu is that dangerous, they won't be able to get it back so easily. Shunta is convinced that Sandrat cheated, since he had Mouchuu out immediately every time. Still, even knowing that doesn't solve their problem. Yoku explains that the interesting point of Battle Spirits is that at any time, you could draw a card that changes the situation of a battle. So luck is always a factor. But on the other hand, if you already know exactly what your opponent is going to do, you don't have to plan on the spot, and can build a deck ahead of time to deal with the enemy.
While Sandrat is celebrating again, his friends all start to compliment him, and now believe Mouchuu is real. Sandrat enjoys having them grovel at him, but is still disappointed, knowing that he didn't risk God-Kings. He would have won all of them, and thinks that he could use that power to even rule over the Battlers of Darkness.
Sandrat decides to go out with his gang again like old times. They're stopped in their tracks by the heroes' ship though, and Shunta demands a rematch. Sandrat accepts, but only if Shunta begs, and they risk God-Kings this time. Much as it annoys Shunta, he does so just so they can battle. This time, Shunta uses magic to stop Sandrat's combo. Then, he wins on his next turn with an all-out attack.
After seeing Sandrat lose, his gang loses interest in him again and leaves him behind. Sandrat lies on the floor, distressed over losing Mouchuu already, while Eto heals him. Shunta feels a bit bad for him, and tells him he just has to stop lying to them.
