~British Soul~ Posted December 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 I'm sure the wait for XYZ wouldn't be that long, I reckon it'll begin around February at the earliest.In terms of the dub, over here we still have 6 episodes to go + Mega Evo 4 if they decide to show it a week after XY092. Mind you, I'm sure we'll get some sort of showcase previewing upcoming events in the anime at some point tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmqWVz813KA&ab_channel=TVTOKYO New Years special. Spoilers be present. Not sure why I watched it since I normally avoid this stuff. Also, pretty sure I figured out what the Dance episode is going to be about and yea......REALLY can't wait for the next couple months of stuff.

~British Soul~ Posted December 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 I don't normally watch the new year's special in its entirety, I just watch the bit at the end separately, and something I didn't notice from watching the episode the first time was when Greninja reverted back to normal in Terminus Cave, it still had the Ash-Greninja chest for a brief moment. [spoiler=Thoughts on future events]- So at the Dance Party, Serena's Eevee is going to evolve into Sylveon... what a surprise, I think we all thought this was gonna happen.- I think Serena will probs win that Showcase that was shown.- Flare vs Rocket is going to be pretty interesting, and not gonna lie whilst watching the special I thought "It's been a while since we saw Giovanni." figured we'd be seeing him again at some point.- And ofc we see Ash vs Alain, though we've seen some of that clip a couple of days ago.

Astro Dude Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Hope Ted Lewis comes back for the dub. Had him back since season 11 or 13. Hate for the voice to change again. Would not want someone like the dub voices of Copypaste or Sanketsu to be him. But that is neither here nor there. You know: These guys: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted January 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 I don't think they'd change Giovanni's VA because I don't think anyone could do him as good as Ted Lewis, but ofc it is some time away, like 5+ months. (In terms of English ofc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Of course. Just that we haven't seen him in a while. And also, Serena going up against Aria in a showcase battle. That is epic. I bet Alain said to Mable and Ariana "I'll take it from here. Head back to base." or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted January 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 That wasn't Aria, that the was the Slurpuff girl she's battling... and it's at a dance party.Aria is the one with an Aromatisse, the other trade evo fairy. In other news, I would've said this earlier (but the site was down), episode 8 is subbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
·Toot Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Wouldn't it be cool if some future Mega Evolutions were situational. Like some would need Sunny Day active or you could only use one if a certain amount of your Pokemon were fainted? Maybe they'd get different stat boosts if they did it those certain ways. I mean... Not those in particular, but the idea seems pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 And watched episode 8. Eevee is too adorable. I do like how it is slowly getting less shy and the faith it has in Serena is nice. Her lose felt natural since it was clear that Eevee just wasn't ready just by looking at it. I also like how she handled the lose and Eevee's misstep. Very good episode for her. Also, the town looked amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Have the subs for that episode (and/or 101) appeared yet?Last time I checked, they didn't. But yeah, Serena's loss was natural because indeed, Eevee still hadn't gotten over its fear of people at that time.The recovery was good though; at least she didn't break down like with Fennekin's slip-up in XY060. Still would've liked to know how she did otherwise in terms of scoring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is the cave will be out in like a week and HOPEFULLY they'll get back to the 1 week post air-date for the release of subs going forward. I actually like that. She could have gotten second, she could have gotten last, it doesn't matter. She lost either way and she took in in stride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pchi Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 The Japanese version of the Hoopa movie is finally out with subs... but not in English yet XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 This will be good, since I want to see how things turned out in Japanese as opposed to the dub I had to watch.If subtitles are in English or Spanish, I shouldn't have a problem understanding what's happening (though I can probably guess, given the English stuff). Didn't watch it on CN because I don't have cable. Still have to watch the Eevee episode though, but I'll do it when internet stops acting up.

~British Soul~ Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Have the subs for that episode (and/or 101) appeared yet?I'm gonna take a punt and say you skimmed over the fact that I said that the episode was subbed in my previous post on Sunday. On another note, new episode titleEpisode 909: The Strongest Mega Battle! Greninja vs Mega Charizard!! (February 4th) This episode (XY105) will feature the return of Shota as well as the battle we saw in the preview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pchi Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Funny that they'd mention Shota appearing, but not Alain, who's got to be there since his Charizard is going to battle Ash's Greninja. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Yeah, that is a bit odd, though I do remember a clip showing a Sceptile/Greninja fight on the same battlefield as the Charizard/Greninja fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Subbers have completely caught up, the latest episode (episode 9) has now been Subbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Got around to watch episode 9. Yea, that episode was awesome. Everything about it worked and all the characters were used well. Excellent episode. Very excited for the new stuff to come this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I didn't watch the subbed episodes (at least not 100/101 yet, but I'll probably do it tomorrow since I shouldn't be terribly busy then).But same here about awaiting for the new stuff in 2016; just gotta see how far this series will go for the duration of the year. Hopefully Ash can win a league this time, but just gotta see.Given his team so far, he might have a decent shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 I feel like most people feel Ash getting top 8 in BW was a MAJOR let down of the series. Honestly, I can't see him just getting top 8 at the very least. Though if he wins it all or gets top 4 or second remains to be seen. Agree that this team really feels like it has a shot and I'm hopeful we'll get to see some of his older pokemon when the league starts up. Though we still have the "who's going to be his 6th pokemon" question totally up in the air. Which is REALLY odd to still have this late. I mean, Ash got Snorunt at 108 in Gen 3, but we are very close to that number and not even the promo poster had a 6th pokemon for him and that spoiled Noivern. Though it didn't spoil Eevee's coming evolution, so maybe we'll get it sooner then it appears. Side note since I'm flipping through AG episodes, Ash got his 8th badge at 111 and XY has been VERY close to that season in terms of pacing. Wonder if how soon from now he'll get his last badge.

Astro Dude Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Don't forget he has Team Flare to deal with first, not to mention a battle with Alain. Though in the league Sawyer has 5 badges, won't be long before he has his 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted January 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Whose to say the Flare Climax comes BEFORE the battle with Wulfric, we don't know at this point.Though we still have the "who's going to be his 6th pokemon" question totally up in the air. Which is REALLY odd to still have this late. I mean, Ash got Snorunt at 108 in Gen 3, but we are very close to that number and not even the promo poster had a 6th pokemon for him and that spoiled Noivern. Though it didn't spoil Eevee's coming evolution, so maybe we'll get it sooner then it appears.As you know, I have been bringing up the AG series a few times in this thread, and yeah I wouldn't be surprised if Ash gets his 6th pokemon around XY109 or something, we have to wait till the end of next month to see, Same thing with the 8th badge, if he doesn't get it by the end of March then it would've overtaken AG again.As for Serena, I also wouldn't be surprised they didn't spoil the evolution just to keep us guessing, because of the fact that it has multiple evos, whereas Noivern is not a branched evo if you know what I mean.

Flame Dragon Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 They can easily deal with both the 8th gym/6th pokemon things and Team Flare thing at the same time. Though I do expect it to be resolved before the league starts. I know Ash still has his battle. ATM we know 105 episodes worth of content so he CAN still get his 6th pokemon around 108. Sawyer still isn't someone I feel Ash should lose to in the league. He just feels to green still. The way they knocked him out of Top 4 in DP was bull, but I'd take that over him losing to Sawyer. I'd much rather them force Alain in and have Ash lose to him. Or have Ash beat him in the finals. That would be cool too. Whose to say the Flare Climax comes BEFORE the battle with Wulfric, we don't know at this point. As you know, I have been bringing up the AG series a few times in this thread, and yeah I wouldn't be surprised if Ash gets his 6th pokemon around XY109 or something, we have to wait till the end of next month to see, Same thing with the 8th badge, if he doesn't get it by the end of March then it would've overtaken AG again. As for Serena, I also wouldn't be surprised they didn't spoil the evolution just to keep us guessing, because of the fact that it has multiple evos, whereas Noivern is not a branched evo if you know what I mean. I can't see the Flare Climax happening before Wulfric without the 8th badge being gotten MUCH later. I feel like that will happen in like September, near Z's actual release. I feel like I've brought up AG a few times too. I know I did when I was comparing the pacing. I can't see him getting it much later than AG since again, they have VERY similar pacing. I'm just hoping they don't pull a DP where a year passes between gyms 7 and 8. Sure a lot of stuff happens, but thats a really noticeable gap. I'd argue Noibat evolving is a big deal since not all of his pokemon do. Though Noibat REALLY hasn't been super useful and kind of needs it like Phanpy and Snorunt did.

I haven't watched it, and while I've looked at what they filled that time with and while it seems good, thats too long without any "main" plot progress. Thats what I see happening too. I imagine we'll get a little more in the Alain fight and then we'll move towards the 8th Gym stuff, his last pokemon and Serena's last key (assuming 104 isn't that). From there back to the Flare stuff (and maybe finishing it), the Master Class for Serena, finishing Flare stuff if need be, then the League. I imagine this will take the next year and if they need another year (I feel like they will since Gen 7 starting this year feels REALLY unlikely) they will have some side story like the Orange Island/Battle Frontier/Decolora Adventure to fill in the remaining time. *I will respond to that when I get up since I should not be up right now* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
