Pimâpotew Kinosewak

The Pimâpotew Kinosewak (translates to Floating Salmon in English, and sometimes referred to as Team Kinosewak) is one of two opposing teams in Total Drama: Pahkitew Island. The team originally consists of Amy, Jasmine, Max, Rodney, Samey, Scarlett, and Topher. However, in This Is The Pits!, Max and Sky switched teams due to Chris wanting to split up budding relationships.

Total Drama: Pahkitew Island
In So, Uh This Is My Team?, Amy, Jasmine, Max, Rodney, Samey, Scarlett, and Topher are put on the Pimâpotew Kinosewak team for having the only working parachutes. For their first challenge, they are told to build a shelter for their team and quickly find the necessary supplies. Jasmine quickly takes charge of the rest of the team and successfully orders her fellow teammates to build a tree house. They win the first challenge of the season, and are given the first reward, as well as being allowed to stay in the tree house for the rest of the season, regardless of whether they win or lose.

In I Love You, Grease Pig!, the team has to perform in an obstacle course, using a pig as a baton. Rodney takes on the first obstacle, running across a greased log, with only minor difficulty. Topher easily transports the team's pig across the zip-line in the second part, and Amy orders Samey to do all the work in the third. After both are pulled through the greased tube by the pig, Scarlett leads the pig through her obstacle with pecans, noting the pigs' fascination with them. Max creates a helmet to make animals evil which, thanks to Scarlett's help, works as it begins to sling grease at him and Dave. In the final leg, Jasmine calms the startled pig down and climbs the greased-slicked wall, winning the challenge for the team.

In Twinning Isn't Everything, the team splits up for the challenge and quickly gets an edge on the other team. Max and Scarlett create a device for popping the other teams balloon, while Jasmine gets a few hits in of her own. Near the end, Jasmine, Amy, and Samey attempt to use Samey's last balloon to hit Shawn from above, but Amy's superiority complex over Samey causes her to fight over the balloon with Samey and Jasmine. This results in the balloon popping, splattering all three of them, costing them the challenge. Amy convinces the team to vote off Samey, however, at their very first elimination ceremony, Amy's throat is closed up due to the manchineel fruit, given to her by Samey. Samey claims that she herself is Amy, resulting Chris to mistakenly fire Amy from the Cannon of Shame, in place of Samey.

In I Love You, I Love You Knots, with Amy gone, Samey continues to pose as her, putting a berry on her face to imitate Amy's beauty mark. Meanwhile, Rodney's girl troubles reach a peak, with Jasmine, "Amy," and Scarlett all "competing" for Rodney's affections. Throughout the challenge, everyone completes their Truth or Scares with ease except for Rodney, who is continuously given questions pertaining to which teammate he likes the most. He is unable to answer these questions, and when the teams are tied, he is chosen to compete in a tie-breaker against Ella. Rodney mocks Clucky, the truth seeking chicken for not being able to judge him this round, but unfortunately, he is unable to untie the bag holding the Waneyihtam Maskwak's shock remote, due to his large hands. Ella, on the other hand, easily extract's Kinosewak's remote, though Clucky is the one who electrocutes them for Rodney's words. Rodney is eliminated that night. He attempts to confess his feelings towards "Amy," Jasmine, and Scarlett, but true to fashion, he jumbles up his words.

In A Blast from the Past, Samey continues her ruse of being Amy while Jasmine helps her. Meanwhile, Jasmine herself is shown continuously worried about Shawn after it is discovered that he has gone missing. The team fair well against the Maskwaks, and when it is Max's turn, he wraps a metal wire around his dueling stick and Scarlett throws an electric eel on it, electrocuting Ella when he hits her with it. Jasmine continues to get distracted by Shawn's absence. When the two go up against each other, Jasmine decides to take a dive so that Shawn will not be voted off, Shawn hits her harshly, thinking that she is a zombie. This angers Jasmine who spends the rest of the episode mad at Shawn's actions. On the final round of the challenge, Samey and Sugar go against each other, but Amy flies out of the water and attacks Samey. Their family feud costs their team the challenge, and at the elimination ceremony, Samey is eliminated. When this is announced, Samey tries to once again have Amy eliminated in place of her, but Chris, having had enough of the confusion, fires both of them from the Cannon of Shame together.

In Mo Monkey Mo Problems, animosity begins to emerge between Max and Scarlett, as she gets fed-up with him bossing her around. Meanwhile, Jasmine is still sour about Shawn's actions, and adding to it is Topher's absence and Max's refusal to listen to her. Jasmine seems to have the most involvement in the challenge, pursuing the team's monkey and later sprinting to the vending machine to insert the coin. Behind her back, Scarlett convinces Max to set a trap that Kinosewak will fall victim to. After which, he will declare his guilt and take credit as an evil mastermind. Kinosewak obtains their coin by playing "monkey see, monkey do" after they lose their monkey within an entire tree of them. The team gets caught in the trap as planned, and Max announces that he set it up, infuriating Jasmine. Max's declaration also satisfies Scarlett, who believes that he will now be eliminated. Max is indeed voted off, but he is spared by Ella, who Chris eliminates in his place due to breaking the rules.

In This Is The Pits!, Team Kinosewak have to navigate their way in a cave. Unfortunately, they get split up after a cave-in, with Max and Scarlett and Jasmine and Topher working together to find their way out. Topher uses Chris' stolen cell phone to find a signal, as Jasmine's claustrophobia acts up the whole way. Meanwhile, Max and Scarlett discover that the crocodiles are actually robotic, and the cave has an elevator complete with music. This leads her to believe that perhaps the island isn't as authentic as it appears. Max and Scarlett exit through the elevator. Jasmine forces her way out of a tunnel using Topher's head. Neither team wins the challenge as neither of them completed it correctly. At the elimination ceremony, Kinosewak retains their member count of four, but Max is switched out for Sky.

In Three Zones and A Baby, Topher is constantly on the watch for a message from the producers telling him that he is Total Drama's new host. He is so focused on Chris' phone that he doesn't care about winning the challenge. Meanwhile, Sky struggles to adapt to the team switch, having been separated from Dave. Jasmine insists that she stay loyal to her new team and forget about Dave, claiming she can no longer trust him. The team performs well in the challenge. They successfully make it past Lion's Lunch thanks to Scarlett thinking on her feet. They also elude "Pasta Bear," who Topher made aware of their presence in the first place. When Team Kinosewak is about to cross the finish line first, Topher gets the call he's been anticipating. Topher cheers excitedly, causing the snow above them to fall onto their team and bury them, keeping them away from the finish line. When Topher is the only one without a marshmallow, he happily declares that he'll be replacing Chris as host, only to find out that the "producer" he spoke to was Chris in disguise. Chris gives Topher the parting advice to "Never play a player" in show business. Topher is then shot out of the Cannon of Shame.

In Hurl and Go Seek, Chris announces the merge in this episode, officially breaking up Team Kinosewak. The only remaining Floating Salmon are Jasmine, Scarlett, and Sky.
