Synopsis[]
Do you know? YOU KNOW! Is the prince of the Demon World a prince in that sense? Tennis World wreaks newfound havoc upon the city as people are being transformed into tennis balls one after another. However, Tennis World can only be defeated by the power of tennis itself. "If that's the case… then let's play doubles!" Zocks challenges Tennis World to a doubles tennis match taking Kaito along as his partner. Keeping in mind that if they don't win this match, Tennis World won't be defeated. Could there be a way to beat Tennis World at his own game? "Y'know? Till the day of our match next week, shiver as you sleep, tennis!!"

- References to Hyakuju Sentai Gaoranger:
- The tennis attack used by Stacy to destroy Tennis World's mask is similar to GaoHunter's attack to destroy Duke Org Rouki's horn in Quest 26: Rouki Returns.
- The Kudaiter tries to cheer Tennis World up by saying "Never give up!" in English, which was the catchphrase of GaoBlue and GaoBlack.
- During the beginning of the tennis match, the Gekiranger logo can be seen on Gaon's tennis racket.
