Pokemon XY&Z


Recommended Posts

Went to go watch some Pokemanz and it seems like the subbers are going slow again. It was 16 days between episode release, twice as long as normal. Really wish we has a more reliable sub group, but relying on fan subs can do that I guess. Though at least I only had 1 episode to get through.

 

 

As for the episode, it was adorable. The flashback to stuff from 15 minutes ago was unnecessary and it meandered a bit but it gave me some of those feels. Pretty sure I said it before, but I really like Eureka as a character. The show does a great job at capturing the child like innocence of a kid who just adores pokemon. The ending did a great job of showing her as being heartbroken but trying to keep a brave face. Also didn't notice the VA change here so that makes me happy. More filler stuff, but I really enjoyed it.

 

Next episode should be interesting since a lot of it looks to take place in flashback. Hopefully it will be out in a couple days since I'm really looking forward to the Eevee episode since thats when I'd say the plot starts picking up again.

I'm not surprised the subs are being slow again. I mean the subbers are probs busy with studying for midterms or something.

 

[spoiler=89 spoiler and 90 preview spoiler]

The tag battle was called off at the end.

Tierno revealed he lost to Olympia prior to this episode

Shauna seems to be aware of Serena's crush on Ash

Also, Nene (who appeared in XY050) will reappear in the next episode for the showcase.

It depends on the school/instructor; I had exams a couple hours ago, and will be getting another in 10-11 hours.

That might be it, or something else.

 

But yeah, subs are slow lately (I need to watch the one with Bonnie / Tyrantrum).

Still waiting for Ash's battle with Olympia though.

I think the norm is early to mid October for colleges students to have their tests. Thats when I would have mine. The slow down doesn't line up, but again, school would cause issues either way.

 

 

I'm personally waiting for the Eevee episode since it looks adorable and we've been teased with it for SO long. Plus things start picking up a lot after that.

 

Anyway, went to check if the intro was changed since Eevee finally joined the party (it wasn't which makes sense since new series in a month) and the Bunnelby ep is up. Will watch when it is a more reasonable hour. Hopefully Eevee will be up early next week.

Yup, that is only 3 weeks away. Should be an interesting episode.

 

Also, new episode title

Episode 898: Hot-Blooded Quilladin! Puni-chan is Being Targeted!! (November 5th)

All we know is that it features Zygarde Core... being targeted.

Quilladin? Does that mean Chespin is evolving, or is it a different Quilladin?

I assumed it was a wild Quilladin when I first saw the title, in any case though it is Quilladin's TV debut.

 

EDIT (Thursday):

[spoiler=90 Spoiler]

Serena won the Anistar Showcase.

and Shauna was revealed to have obtained a 2nd Princess Key prior to the last episode.

 

 

 

and next week Olympia will make her debut.

Finally caught up on the last two episodes.

 

Flashback episode was the weakest of the filler stuff, but still cute. Watching wild pokemon like that is always fun for me.

 

The Eevee episode was adorable. Eevee especially. Should be interesting to see how they develop her (I'm assuming its a female Eevee).

Well we can assume it's female even though its gender isn't officially confirmed yet. As for me, I'm waiting for the subs for the tag battle episode because of the conversation between Shauna and Serena in the Pokémon Centre because she knows something, and we should know what she knows because of Serena's reaction.

I know I bring this up way to much, but they've spent WAY too much time building it up for it to go nowhere. So if it doesn't I'm going to be SO sad. Like dangling a carrot in front of a rabbit. We better get out damn carrot.

 

It is funny how everyone seems to know though.

I suppose you could compare it to the "Dee Dee" thing from DP, with the fact it comes up at various points of the series, then we eventually get that damn carrot and we find out how Dawn got that nickname.

Indeed.

Was it satisfying? Though I don't think thats the best comparison since he was a secondary character with only a few episodes so it didn't come up nearly as often as this does. Honestly, I think thats part of the reason I am so fascinated by this, its so different. I mean, people ship Ash with all his female companions, but this is the first time they've REALLY driven it home.

A. Kenny wasn't the only person who brought it up, other characters brought it up too (her other friend Leona, whose head was dunked in the hot spring when Ash asked about its origin as well as Ursula who brought it up after eavesdropping on Dawn when she told Ash and Brock about the origins).

Ab. It was the first thing I thought of.

B. It's not just the female companions who Ash had been shipped with, there was also the Frontier Brain of the Battle Tower who had been shipped with Ash as well.

C. I agree, the writers can't have it go nowhere otherwise it'll piss a lot of people off seeing as they have come so far with this.

Noted, and fair. You don't have a ton of things to go off of so it is likely the best.

 

I yea, I forgot about that.

 

Personally, I want to see her continue to travel with Ash into the next region. He hasn't kept a traveling companion since Gen 4 and it would be cool to see her stick around.

She's definitely one of the better female travelling companions that's for sure. And I did keep bringing up my dislike for Iris towards the end of Best Wishes/around the beginning of XY. But yeah it would be nice to see Serena stick around.

My guess is that she will decide to part ways with him in the end to follow her own dreams but will confess to him at very last minute, but Ash won't have enough time to give his answer. I doubt he won't understand her feelings like he usually does when it comes to romantic love.
