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 consisted 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 had to carry a pig across an obstacle course. Rodney took 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 being pulled through the greased tube by the pig, Scarlett leads the pig through her obstacle with pecans, noting 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. However, her team is still bitter over Samey, believing her to have caused their loss, and continuously badmouth her, making it very difficult for Samey to keep posing as Amy. Meanwhile Rodney's girl troubles have reached a peak, with him now falling for Scarlett, as well as rekindling his affection for Amy (actually Samey). During the challenge, the first truth is given to Samey, who must state who she hates the most. She hesitatingly answers that she hates Amy, confusing the team as they believe that she is Amy, until Jasmine covers for her. Throughout the rest of the challenge, everyone completes their Truth or Scares with ease except for Rodney, who is continuously given questions about pertaining two which teammate he likes the most. As he has feelings for all of the girls on his team, 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 shocker collar remote, due to his large hands, and when Ella refuses to shock his team after opening her bag, Clucky angrily presses the remote, furious at his previous mocking, causing Team Kinosewak to lose. That night, at the elimination ceremony, Rodney is eliminated, and while in the Cannon of Shame, he tries to express his feelings to the remaining girls, but once again fails to get the message across.
