Astro Dude Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 I see. Well then. I quit all wikia after getting in an argument over badges in the Mugen Souls Wiki. So no more episode article creations for me. But still a fan of pokemon nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted October 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'm not even gonna ask about the Mugen Souls wiki thing, it sounds private. Also there seems to be a 1-week break on December 4th, so the episode featuring Barbaracle is set to air on December 11th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 And I'll bet there's gonna be one on Christmas day too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 Nah, I say there's gonna be a break on New Year's rather than Christmas. Why am I saying that? Well... the last time Christmas Day fell on a Thursday was back in 2008, and if I recall there was a new episode that day in Japan, when Ash fought Byron. To further prove my point, the episode in the Advanced Generation series when Spinda debuted also aired in Japan on Christmas Day back in 2003. Also Clemont's Chespin male confirmed in today's episode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Nice. Plus, was the trainer with the Female Meowstic, was it a guy or a girl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Not that it matters imo, but I think it was a guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Man, I hope not. Well, we'll have to wait to see what Bulbapedia says. In the meantime, Can't wait for the new episodes. Ah man, Hajime is a guy. I was hoping he'd be a girl. He looks like one and he has a Female Meowstic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 I thought Hajime looked more masculine anyway; we know that there can be androgynous females in anime, but he didn't show any of those qualities. Anyway, episode was okay, I guess. Main plot of it was Ryuji & Hajime going on a treasure hunt or something in their yard for things to resolve their differences [probably symbolic with Clemont & Bonnie]. Then again, it appears that Bonnie didn't want to eat the carrots in her soup from what I could make out of it to an extent. Have to wait for subs to come out. (Would've been nice if they gave a short intro into Ryuji instead of just throwing him in opening scene of episode, eating with Ash & co). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted October 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 The other thing to note is that the opening was changed and includes a Pancham with yellow shades, Grace (Serena's mum), Aria and her Braixen, replacing Korrina, Lucario, Mabel, Mawile, Gurkinn and his Lucario.

Can't remember how many times they have stopped to eat soup this series, but it probs means that Bonnie doesn't like carrots or something. Of course it is likely that isn't entirely true, and Bonnie might've decided to be awkward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Finlly watched the subbed gym battle. REALLY good battle imo. Like that Ash tried to adapt the new strategy, but when he saw it wasn't working, dropped it. Also like how he used his strategy from the last gym. Really good stuff. Anyway, checked out the updated intro and it looks like Serena is finally going to get more focus, and I also like that. As I've said before, I like how they've been handling her character.

Astro Dude Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Yeah. The dub version will butcher out the fanservice of the Korrina Gym Battle Episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 They're definitely going to censor Korrina forming the kanji for "Life Explosion" before Mega Evolution. Though I don't watch the dubs as often (you can probably pin 80-90% of the blame on 4Kids and the dubbing companies down here for that), so probably won't care what they do. [Just as a random thing, probably will look if they even showed the 3 minutes when Mega Lucario went feral and literally beat up Pikachu in dub.] On other notes, at least Serena's finally going to do something more major; other than being backstage and doing nothing more than either making PokePuffs or some other minor stuff. (She's most likely getting that Pancham in episode 47 [title says it], though it's likely she won't evolve it. She does need a new Poke besides Fennekin b/c she can't win all Serena's battles for her. I need to stop holding her to the same standards I have Hikari/Haruka at; she's not them.) Fast forward a few episodes to 52, the ninja kid returns. Would be nice to see Froakie master Quick Attack by then, if it ever needed to do it. Personally, it would be great if Team Flare/Lysandre made their appearance in XY after the aforementioned episode and/or Ash gets on to the 4th gym (with training), but it's whatever the producers want to make. It's not my call to say what they should be doing already in the anime. EDIT: What fanservice are you talking about? Could just be your liking towards her.

~British Soul~ Posted October 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 They're definitely going to censor Korrina forming the kanji for "Life Explosion" before Mega Evolution. I agree, they usually remove the japanese characters for the english version anyway. EDIT: What fanservice are you talking about? Could just be your liking towards her. I was thinking the same thing. I mean apart from the kanji thing, there wasn't anything questionable in the episode that would warrant it being cut from the english version. Fast forward a few episodes to 52, the ninja kid returns. Would be nice to see Froakie master Quick Attack by then, if it ever needed to do it. Not to mention it's most likely going to evolve in that episode as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Like you mentioned earlier, if Froakie isn't evolving; then how does the Frogadier factor in? Does some random guy bring it in or what. Sanpei's one already evolved at that point into Greninja, so it make sense that Ash's one evolves. (Should have enough battle experience to warrant it anyway) As for the censor stuff, they could probably replace the kanji with some unidentifiable symbols or markings or something; but I didn't see anything else that would require things getting censored. (They'll probably change the background music to some dub thing as well, since Volt does play near the end of the match in sub.) Well, maybe Mega Lucario slamming Hawlucha into the wall or something with its attacks, but it's not that violent. Pikachu being thrown around like a rag doll, then getting its face slammed into the ground, then being kicked several meters into a wall, plus M. Lucario attempting to severely injure Ash/Pikachu in berserk mode is a lot worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted October 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Watching the subs for the episode from last week and it was stated that Bonnie hates carrots (Like it was assumed a few posts ago) and that Clemont doesn't like peas either. ...and then in the previw for next week's episode we see Shauna watching one of Aria's pokevision shows sitting next to Serena. EDIT: The japanese VA for Professor Rowan in DP passed away last week. http://bulbanews.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Iemasa_Kayumi_passes_away_at_age_82 RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 Aw man. That's awful. And did you see the preview of the newest episode? That Pancham just ruining the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted October 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 How else would I have known that Shauna was in the next episode if I didn't watch the preview? That aside, figured they acknowledged Fairy's dragon-type immunity in this episode not to mention Mairin's mega evolution segment at the end focusing on Mega Salamence (Seeing as half the focus of the episode was on Salamence anyway) EDIT (Thurs 16th): Unsurprisingly Serena caught the Pancham, and yeah it loves to perform which does justify its actions. Although the weird thing is that Pancham's sunglasses were red in this episode, yet in the opening they were shown to be yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Kinda makes you wonder if the Pancham had a trainer or was wild to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 It was most likely wild to begin with imo. That aside, one thing that I'm sure has annoyed many people who watch the series (Which is something we haven't talked about at all) is when the colour palette go temporarily darker.
