Bad anon, you just made Shoko cry.

>>281660957
Reminder that we're getting a special announcement of some kind at the end of today's episode.

>>281661049
Actually legit excited for this one. Last week's episode was meh, but this one is looking like it's going to be good.

>>281661035
Good.

I prefer the "Moomin" nickname the nips gave it.

Fine, fat MOOMIN.

Are there more of those nip comment videos? They're fun.

>>281661136
Search for them yourself.

>>281661169
Will a bird be more or less affected by gravity fuckery than a non-bird?

>>281661217
Birds are built for flying, hitting the ground by gravity is gonna fuck them hard.

>>281661403
Roy looks like he's being a dick here.

>>281661429
I'll give them this episode to sell me on that Moomintroll.

>>281661432
Dickbird won him over.

>>281660992
So who IS this anyway? I doubt it's his father.

>>281661490
Might be some Z-A character.

>>281661049
Pokemon/Ruri Rocks crossover special where Nagi teaches Roy to not disrespect rocks.

>>281661626
We're not that lucky.

5 minutes.

>>281661712
Ready.

Here we go!

>Hamber still has "something he needs to do" at the Explorers
Hmm

Guess rescuing the Six Heroes is next on the agenda.

>no flashback
Gay

No Kairyu in the op.

>>281661787
Makes sense, it wasn't in the ED last week either.

Stealthy place.

SPINEL!

Uruto is the worst Solid Snake ever

Yamirami saving the day, nice.

>Spinel
>Agate
BRAT DOKO?

Oh, he's on to Hamber too.

>>281660913
There we go. Knew the answer was A.

>shilldog
Episode ruined.

This is definitely a better episode than last week.

"Mega awesome news" at the end of the ep.

>>281661857
Wonder if it's actually Uruto related then

>>281661829
Literally everything is proceeding according to his plans

Batoru taimu.

Dickbird!

That snowman looks retarded.

>>281661273
Nice

FUCK EM UP CAP!

Is one of them using Psychic to lift the other monkey around?

This is a solid battle scene, wonder who wrote this ep.

>>281661915
Yeah, I think so.

Damn that was cheap.

>Monkeymons pierce their foes
H-hot.

Why aren't they mega evolving?

>Shilldog getting shat on
Good episode.

Wait, flashback dude DID say it was a Kairyu? Then why didn't he know?

The credits should tell us the identity of the guy in the flashback then.

Jesus Mega Kairyu looks retarded.

About fucking TIME, Roy.

Go, shill duo! Shill to the max!

>being strong is to be able to protect everyone, not to defeat everyone
Nice

How lewd were Liko and Dot during their downtime?

Uruto is a cute kid.
Roy still sucks.

>>281661961
Nope. Whoever voiced him voiced someone else who got priority credit.

It's fucking useless little back wings flapping

>>281661894
He went out just to job :(

>>281662007
He's a dick.

Still no Kairyu in the ED

It's time

Good episode, glad that Roy and Uruto have more respect for one another.

Matiere!

>>281662013
It’s tail was visible for a second.

MATIERE!?!?!

FUG

>>281662046
Oh shit, Emma! Guess it takes place before ZA since she's still a kid.

DotLiko status?

New titles dropped:

>October 10th: Pocket Monsters Episode Mega Evolution 001 - Roy: Training
>October 17th: Pocket Monsters Episode Mega Evolution 002 - Uruto: Strongest
>October 24th: Pocket Monsters Episode Mega Evolution 003 - Mega Evolution: Bond

>>281662046
>Dressed properly
She isn't starving anymore...

Can't honestly say I'm super excited for Roy alone episodes, but I guess at least they'll finally start elaborating on the stupid pisshoud.

>>281662078
So are these separate from the regular series?

>>281662078
Curious about Matiere's involvement.

>>281662098
It's a short miniseries covering their training, yeah.

>alone with Dot
>rather think about Roy instead
Liko...

I do not believe this woman has a license.

>>281662153
You do not need a license for Swag

Any Seiryu guesses for Matiere?

>>281662126
oh they’re bringing back the mega evolution specials? so side-story to shill legends za, like how Alain helped with ORAS related stuff huh? damn it’s been so long.

>>281662198
>side story
>it's still about the same two annoying faggots
This will be nothing like the Mega Evolution specisls.

>>281662198
>>281662243
Can it.

I am more curious about Matiere, is it gonna be presented as a prelude to her involvement in the upcoming game?

>>281662243
But Matiere is cute!

>>281662126
Did anyone ever made a spreadsheet of the characters that have NEVER made an appearance before?

So are the episodes the same length as an actual episode, because I'm gonna be real with you chief.... I'm not watching 66 minutes of roy learning about mega evolution.

>>281662243
Would you rather they not give us any sort of information on Roy’s time in Kalos?

>>281662262
I know of
Karen, Koga's daughter, like all of Hoenn's E4 members, besides Drake, all of Unova's E4 besides Caitlin, Alder's son, Ultra Recon Squad, Bede and Az.

The special is going to reveal the shocking truth that Uruto is actually a midget and that he and Roy are the same age.

Cope Roykek.

>>281662609
You chose to pay attention to that over the arc news? Sort your priorities out man.

>>281662509
I think this one has the right mix between the two phases.

>Episode Mega Evolution:
>The theme song for the Pokémon anime specials that start on Friday October 10th will be "Yuu" by Yuzu! We've received comments from the duo:

>Not only are we extremely happy to be allowed to handle the theme song for the Pocket Monsters Episode Mega Evolution anime as well after doing the one for the Mega Voltage arc, we're also happy we get to drum up excitement for this story with another new song. This song incorporates imagery of Roy and Uruto's first meeting and subsequent bonding, as well as of them growing stronger through battles against the Yellow Lucario.
>Just like we did with Get Back, we teamed up with TeddyLoid-kun for the musical aspect. This time, we intended to create something new and unique by combining a traditional Japanese flavor centered around the sound of the koto with modern digital sound and our own vocal interplay. And while the song incorporates elements from the Pokémon anime, it was also themed around its position as a song to be played during our first Asia tour as Yuzu in 6 years.
>Just like you, we're also really excited to follow the new encounters, fierce battles and gradually revealed truths in the Pokémon anime every week. look forward to learning what kind of stories lie in wait for you from here on as well! Please enjoy our new song "Yuu" alongside the Pocket Monsters Episode Mega Evolution TV show!
>-Yuzu

Had to look up who Matiere was.

Why does she look shoehorned in the XY titles? Hoping she gets ironed out in ZA and the upcoming Likonime episodes because there is a genuine chance to blend her versions together in this transition-like manner.

>>281662865
So they're doing a new op just for that three episode one?

>>281662865
It's gonna be about the boys.

We ain’t never gonna see lil’ Dot.

https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/1958846623939010746

>What did you think of Pokémon anime episode 107, "The Two Of Us, As Friends"? The Kairyu that came out of Uruto's Dark Ball Mega Evolved! Check out the newly discovered Mega Evolved Pokémon Mega Kairyu in the Youtube upload, okay?

>>281662890
Yep. This is getting special treatment.

>>281662069
Super Dead

>>281662621
He's literally just here for the crack yurishipping.

>>281662917
Is Uruto kinda nuts? His facial expression and attitude when battling seems lowkey unhinged.

Funny for all title to put so much emphasis on charcadet vs arcanine but the preview is all about it fighting the wash rotom.

I assume it's a double battle, but still funny.

>>281662968
It might have to do with the battle because it's one with a notable type disadvantage over the Charcadet/Carbou. The idea behind this battle might for the squire to overcome its limiations in face of others having the upper hand, like how a lance often outranges the sword.

I am surprise Uruto and Roy seem to actually be the same age. Meaning Uruto and Dot are just a huge pair of wo/manlets. Truly a match made in heaven. Uruto better pray his dick isn't nonexistent like Dot's breasts.

>>281662991 (Me)
Meant to say Type advantage, not sure why I posted disadvantage.

>>281662993
Roy ate like a good boy. Uruto probably just chewed on pebbles and Rocks because they're like him, simple and tiny.

>>281662867
>Why does she look shoehorned in the XY titles?
They were probably trying to tackle the hooligan/orphan angle they had with those NPCs but were still cut short because of the transition to 3D.

Where is Sango?

>>281663055
Her new design failed to capture the excitement people had when she was first introduced so she's becoming more irrelevant.

>>281662867
You say this, but in that tacked on post-game she legit has more character and story than 95% of the rest of the XY game cast.

>>281662867
It's a post-game story and you're using Jap names which only retards and tryhards use.

>>281663073
>in that tacked on post-game she legit has more character and story than 95% of the rest of the XY game cast.
I am gonna start a new file to see if it holds up. But the portrayal of some of the characters were just jarring or lost their punches halfway in.
>>281663090
You might have a point about the post-game. Sperg over that instead of the name usage.

>>281663069
Speak for yourself, i want to worship those brat pits.

>>281662897
The same was said about Uruto and yet today's episode told another story.

Any ideas for how Roy slightly changes his attitude? He seems as dickish as Uruto from the preview.

>>281662046
Who is that ugly brown girl

>>281663243
A game character.

>>281663243
She's an orphan.

So is the story of Roy and Uruto's time in Kalos is gonna be like Friede's story told to the crew?

>>281663280
I would kill myself if my kid was that ugly too

>>281662633
The new song is referred to as a "theme song" rather than an "opening theme", which suggests there's just going to be that one song.
It might play at the end of the episodes for all we know.

>>281663313
Seems like it.

>>281663053
Well they did a poor job then

>>281661481
Well, what's the verdict now on that Moominfatso?

>>281663735
He's ok >>281662438

>>281663838
>The key visual depicts Roy and Uruto standing side by side in front of the Prism Tower of Miare City, both of them wearing Mega Rings. In the background, we see the Yellow Mega Lucario with its fierce gaze fixed upon the duo, as well as Miare City resident Matiere.

Their first stop will be the battle restaurants.

>>281663854
>It's a key visual filled with intriguing details, building excitement towards learning both how Roy and Uruto first met, as well as who the mysterious armored man is.

>>281663864
>A promo video for Episode Mega Evolution has been released as well. The video shows elements like Roy and Uruto's first meeting and a battle scene featuring them going up against the Yellow Lucario, revealing that Episode Mega Evolution is going to be a story from the past depicting Roy and Uruto's journey towards learning to use Mega Evolution. The battle against the Yellow Lucario, and the appearances by Matiere from the key visual as well as her Nyasper Mokoh make this video a must see for video game fans as well. You'll now finally be able to see Roy's encounter with both the Yellow Lucario as well as Mega Evolution itself!

>>281663876
>"Yuu", the theme song for Episode Mega Evolution, will be sung by Yuzu, who also handled Get Back, the opening theme for the Mega Voltage arc. A short clip from the song was first revealed in the new Episode Mega Evolution trailer.

>>281663890
>Episode titles:
>Friday October 10th: "Roy: Training"
>Friday October 17th: "Uruto: Strongest"
>Friday October 24th: "Mega Evolution: Bond"

Is there a list of Pokemon that were confirmed to have new mega forms?

>>281663950
Just Kairyu and Utsubot so far.

>>281664016
And thank fucking God they went with Kairyu if they had to pick one of the two.

>>281663950
Just Dragonite and Victreebel

>>281663950
There's a leaked list that's been confirmed by the last 2 Z-A trailers but you gotta go to /VP/ for that.

>>281662954
>>281662609

Well, it's an improvement over the last episode. But they really need to go back to focusing on Liko now.

>>281664255
Actually rated higher than the Kaede episode.

>>281663313
>So is the story of Roy and Uruto's time in Kalos is gonna be like Friede's story told to the crew?
Duh, wouldn't shock me if some of the retelling is contradicting because of Uruto's injections

>>281664308
I agree with that. Uruto was just obnoxious as fuck in that one, and the battle was worse too.

>>281664255
Damn what is the thing they don't like? Is it kairyu? Uruto? Roy? The explorers?

>>281664348
I'll say Roy, most Roy episodes rate in the high 70s.

Roy truly was a mistake.

>>281663243
She's been living on the street.

>>281664380
Why do they don't like Roy?

>>281664415
Do you seriously repost that like a bot everytime people talk too much about Roy to your liking?

>>281662412
Can that be considered property damage?

>>281662993
Uruto probably did things differently than Roy.

>>281664424
He's just boring really. There's barely anything to his character, so it's really hard to get invested in what he does. Liko, Dot, Friede and Amethio are much stronger characters in that regard, so their focus episodes rate much higher.

>>281662991
My best guess is Carbou turning the tracks of its opponent against themselves.

>>281662438
Why are the wings on top?

>>281664587
Dragonair had head wings

>people here calling gen 1 pokemon by their Japanese names
Why

>>281664623
Oh god can you shut up? Who cares about what names are used? Talk about the episodes or zip it.

>>281664623
Schizo would have a melty if you use Dragonite instead bro

>>281663236
Roy simply had to man up.

>>281661966
It's looks like a fucking barney parody

>>281664517
Sounds like a good way to learn Flame Charge to me.

>>281664415
Liko....lost

>>281664698
....her supply for sandwiches.

>>281662454
It's OK. Better than ZA's design but below her orphan style.

The masses crave AmeLiko

>>281664673
Barneyfag...

>>281664633
I care
None of you are Japanese. You will never be Japanese. You were introduced to pokemon during gen 5 at the earliest and after gen 5 it was a simultaneous release so anyone on an English language Mongolian crab fishing board should use the English names

True love.

>>281664255
I don’t expect the special to rate highly if people really just don’t want to watch Roy.

>>281664997
Matiere will save them with her cuteness.

Wonder if these 3 specials are going to be it for Kalos and chapter 6 will have a different focus (like Blueberry).

>>281665053
Could be. We spent 7 episodes in Kitakami, but 3 of them were set in the wilderness that could've been literally anywhere, and two of them were primarily spent on flashbacks and exposition related to non-Kitakami stuff.

>>281665116
She was going to beat him up.

>>281665116
>Fuck your rocks, stop disrespecting Gurumin!

>>281664336
>Uruto was just [headcanon]
Get help.

>>281665053
Maybe. Miare City is a very limited setting, and Kalos in general is very filled with characters they probably don't want to use.

>>281665283
>headcanon
But anon clearly posted an opinion, not a supposed fact.

>>281665321
Don't care, the mentally afflicted retard reposts that shit every thread.

>>281665433
What the actual fuck are you talking about, I've mentioned like twice that I didn't like Uruto's behavior in that episode. Calm down faggot.

>>281665296
Use your brain.

Use your fucking brain for one single second. What characters are new and are located specifically in Miare city, ready to be used before the release date of the game they're debuting in? I hate this fucking excuse about "limitations" like:
>Oh no they won't do this because of this and this
This is the Pokemon anime, they're overflowing with a bunch of game characters that were never used with Matiere originally being one of them until today.

You have a handful of new characters from that city, nearly double the count of the ones from XY. "Limited" my ass.

>>281665472
We'll see, anon.

Sex on the beach with Dot

Chances of Taunie in these specials?

>>281665820
Always a chance, but she feels like someone they'd rather save for later.

>>281665820
Maybe a small peek at her back but the odds are significantly higher in a ZA-centric arc with Liko and co around or if they're touching the game events of ZA.

>>281665820
>whatsherface is still a kid
Sure, as a child?

>>281665880
The anime has never given two shits about keeping respective characters ages consistent, the BW anime had Satoshi interact with both the BW iteration of Bel and B2W2 iteration of Cheren three episodes apart.

>>281663236
>Any ideas for how Roy slightly changes his attitude?
Lucario probably trained him to stop being a loud retard.

>>281663857
Of course it is, they're boys.

Do we even know how much time passed between XY and ZA?

>>281666356
The only real indication is Matiere's age, and she doesn't really look all that much older, so probably just a few years at most.

>>281660882
It begins.
Or continues, in this case.

>>281666891
These two definitely fucked and gave birth to Lucca

About time Roy's mons get more attention. Since this is largely gonna take place before Cario joins his team it's gonna be Croc and Dickbird action.

>>281663055
>Where is Sango?
Stuck with Onyx.

Hi anons, was there anything you wanted translated or clarified from today's episode?

>>281668350
I understood that Roy apologized for losing his temper at Uruto in the previous episode but was anything more elaborated about their beef after leaving the Exceed building?

Can probably guess it too but Uruto bragged about bailing Roy out of the building when they were cornered, right?

>>281668456
>I understood that Roy apologized for losing his temper at Uruto in the previous episode but was anything more elaborated about their beef after leaving the Exceed building?
No, he apologized for not realizing the rocks were important to Uruto right after bailing him out of the cell, but the topic was never brought up again after that.

>I understood that Roy apologized for losing his temper at Uruto in the previous episode but was anything more elaborated about their beef after leaving the Exceed building?
Oh yeah. Here's their explanation for why they were late for dinner:
>Uruto: We attacked the Explorers' hideout! And then Roy got in trouble and I pulled off a beautiful rescue!
>Roy: That's not what happened!

>>281668456
>I understood that Roy apologized for losing his temper at Uruto in the previous episode but was anything more elaborated about their beef after leaving the Exceed building?
No, he apologized for not realizing the rocks were important to Uruto right after bailing him out of the cell, but the topic was never brought up again after that.

>Can probably guess it too but Uruto bragged about bailing Roy out of the building when they were cornered, right?

>Roy: That's NOT what happened!

>>281668583
>Uruto is projecting again
Love the gremlin. Thanks TLanon.

>>281668350
What was up with this? >>281661953

>>281668625
The man in the flashback said "Kairyu, when Uruto fights for someone else's sake, then...".

Later, Uruto said he had forgotten that Kairyu only helps out if it's in order to protect someone, so I guess it had forgotten it was a Kairyu too?
Honestly, it doesn't really make sense he didn't know what Pokemon was inside to me either.

>>281668746
Might be because it has been so long that he forgot. Which, if the Kairyu followed the order that diligently, says a lot about Uruto being a solo player.

>>281668350
What did Diana and Hamber talked about?

>>281668605
Uruto isn't projecting, Roy did jack shit.

>>281669056
Roy literally broke him out.

>>281669115
Lucario did.

>>281664650
But ultimately failed.

>>281668976
*They start off by making some vague references to a Pokemon they managed to calm down and Diana then got (most likely a Rakulium-affected one, presumably the Rotom from next episode?)
*Diana says she wishes Hamber would leave the Explorers, but he says he still has some things left to do
*Hamber tells Diana to thank Liko on his behalf for what she did for Amethio
*He then tells her that Spinel captured all the Six Heroes except for Fug at Mt. Kumli, and is presumably holding them captive somewhere. Spinel is also likely to try to get rid of the Rising Volt Tacklers soon
*They both agree that Liko and Amethio are the key to bringing down Spinel, as the heirs of Lucius and Gibeon.

Later we see Spinel making specific arrangements to use the 5 Heroes against the Rising Volt Tacklers. Agate disagrees with this, thinking it's overkill, but he doesn't want to take chances and potentially end up like Gibeon.

Oh, and by the way, the reason Spinel took Uruto prisoner but let Yamirami go was because he wanted to bait someone into coming to the rescue so he could capture them too and interrogate them (he referred to Uruto as a junior member of the Rising Volt Tacklers, so he presumably didn't think he knew all that much of value).

So, where did the Kairyunite come from?

>>281669384
Thin air.

>>281669384
From its pocket.

>>281669436
>What was the point in Uruto collecting rocks then

>>281669578
Rocks are cool.

>>281669632
Daigo...

>>281669725
That's Ruri.

>>281668746
Being generous you could probably rationalize it that he only knew the Pokemon's name but didn't actually know what it looked like or anything like that. Of course the question would be why he didn't just look it up at that point given he owns a Rotom phone.

>>281669907
Pretty sure he recognized it as a Kairyu when he saw it last week, and acted surprised that THAT was what the ball contained.

The two episodes had separate writers, so it's probably just poor communication between them.

How powerful is Liko's and Dot's love.

>>281670046
Powerful enough to take down Spinel in the end.

>>281669375
God I love this man. He's like a sexy version of Palpatine.

Diana and Uruto getting along, not surprised in any way.

>>281670844
Diana seems like she'd be into rocks.

Cute Doot

>>281671473
Why is she confused.

I can't believe Sigma made it to the Pokémon world. Motherfucking is a roach.

>>281671712
Liko gave her her old hairpin because she doesn't want it to get lost, but Dot doesn't think it's right of her to just give it away.

I think it's a reference to something Botan says in the game.

>>281663838
>>281663864
>>281663876
>>281663904
So this is gonna be a Gaiden?

>>281672074

>>281672125
>>281672246
What's the difference?

>>281660807 (OP)
poked

>>281674103
A "tokubetsuhen" is a special, so just some sort of non-standard episode of some kind. A "gaiden" is a spinoff, something completely separate that usually has minimal to zero effect on the main franchise.

>>281672927
This is adorable.

Busy correcting the brat. It takes time.

>>281687018
I'll help.

I figured the fact they had uruto not mention the giant lapras he saw captured and the promo for the next episode showing them in a different location meant the captured lucius mons were a later thing, but the episode started with diana saying rescuing them was a thing they needed to do now so this is kind of weird from like.... a writing point of view

Yeah I can see diana mentioned them being captured and uruto asking who they are before going "Oh, I saw a giant lapras and 4 other giant pokemon back at that base we escaped from" but I don't see any reason to have them leave if they're coming back a episode later or whatever.

>>281687425
It was Uruto and Roy in enemy territory. Mega Moominon can only dish out so much before the numbers get too high for them. And it's Spinel we're talking about, he wouldn't risk it if he knew he could do something to make it a trivial matter.

>>281687425
Uruto is just kind of out of the loop regarding it lot of things. He had no clue who Spinel was either.

Cute

>>281687804
and gay

>>281664255
>>281664415
Maybe the writers will learn now how much people love Liko. I hope she sticks around for Gen 10 anime but we’re probably gonna do the yu-gi-oh thing with different MCs now right?

>>281687980
We'll have to wait and see. There's no need to doompost yet.

Wait, who was narrating the next episode preview?

>>281688180
Kenta Miyake.

>>281687980
The concept of the Rising Volt Tacklers as a group of Indiana Joneses chasing the mysteries of the world absolutely allows them to keep them as leads for future gens where they get involved in different plots, so we'll see.

>>281688318
>Spinel after realizing that Roy retard took the bait and actually came to the hideout

>>281690058

>>281690058
>>281690076

>>281665472

>Inb4 Pre-ZA Matiere
This is her in the same year where Roy changed up his gear. And the anime and manga plays around with the years by a smaller margin without becoming a big detriment.

>>281662262
Roughly 30% of the Galar catalogue is still absent. Not sure if they hop back into that region again but if they do it would be a good opportunity.

>>281690107
Okay, what did you like about the recent episode then?

>>281690107
I'll talk about whatever I want and you can't do a thing about it.

If Liko, Roy, Dot, and Ulto are all the same age why are the latter two so fucking tiny?

>>281690418
With Dot is malnutrition.

>>281690029
Flashback episode showing a young Sango receiving training from Hamber and bullying the bocchama.

>>281690418
With Uruto it's the times he got hit on the head.

>>281690288
I appreciated the sentiment behind Uruto getting the stick out of his ass and starting to accept that he might need to rely on others. He can only go so far going solo. Aside from Spinel continuing to future-proofing his steps, I feel more confident in them covering the newer shit from the games asap.
>Kairyu pops out of the ball
>New mega form is showcased asap

But personally my biggest interest lies in the upcoming october episodes since outside of explaining how Roy got his Cario, it can work as the prelude ground for ZA. Not strictly as becoming mandatory to know about before touching the game but seeing the first signs of the events from the games beginning to form. They have the opportunity to overlap the crystals from the game causing Pokemon to go on a mega frenzy with the Rakurium frenzies.

Also, if there is one Pokemon (You) think deserves a mega form, which would it be?

>>281690029
There's quite a lot to work with for Sango, really
>we know she, Onyx, Agate and Amethio were trained by Hamber, probably together, and probably over several years
>general brattiness aside, she seemed genuinely concerned when Amethio was left out of the Rakua mission as well. She also reacted with disbelief when Spinel showed proof of Amethio's treason.
>she clearly doesn't have much respect for Spinel, and reacted negatively to his Rakulium Sphere plot. Spinel, meanwhile, has basically described her and Onyx as useful idiots.
>official profile states she enjoys her new celebrity status
I think she'll eventually make a heel turn when Spinel eventually pulls some really cruel bullshit. She's a brat, but she's clearly not evil.

>>281690970
Since she had no problem subjecting her own Pokemon to Rakurium, which slowly cracked Onyx's, what would be too cruel in her books?

>>281691113
We've seen so many randos subject their Pokemon to the Strong Spheres that I can absolutely buy that she doesn't quite realize what it does.

>>281691113
>>281691291
Also, regarding Onyx, he's been shown to be extremely honorable and loyal to a fault, and would absolutely be willing to subject both himself and his Pokemon to physical pain as long as it's to protect the Explorers/Exceed's honor and reputation. He'd probably be willing to turn on Spinel if Spinel actually tried sacrificing him or otherwise gave him a very good reason to not deserve his loyalty.

>>281672894
>>281672927
>>281672952
I think it's one of these.

>>281684375

>>281696918
These two are totally fucking.

>>281664255
> viewership : 1501
How is this improvement ?
>>281664308
Why don't you add viewership number?

Over 200 DotLiko fanfics.

Does Dot have any meaningful relationship with anyone that is not Liko or her family?

>>281698531
Botan.

>>281698531
Botan, Nanjamo and sort of Aoki.

We didn't have 100% confirmation that this guy was Master Mayonnaise. Now we do.

>>281698947
Nice.

Why does Briar seem so busy when Liko and the others call her? Because she's struggling with the rapidly approaching deadline for her book, or because she's watching Nanjamo videos?

>>281699256
I really hope Briar is revealed to be a Nanjamotard too.

>>281699223
The first joke that comes to mind is that liko would be smiling not frowning at that, but as someone who's been on the internet long enough.... a female youtuber and not being straight are the same thing 90% of the time.

Coming out as a youtuber automatically implies something about their gender or sexuality.

>>281698531
Ult soon.

>>281699256
Probably not gonna happen but a return to Area Zero and a Sandy Shocks capture for Roy would be nice.

We also got the tiniest and most irrelevant bit of new footage from next week.

>>281700259
And that's it.

>>281700259
>>281700285
Thrilling.

>>281699256
It's pretty obviously the book (we literally see her holding a pencil and having a piece of paper in front of her), but I'd seriously love if it was a trick question and the answer IS the videos.

>>281700259
I'd make a joke about giving a woman the washing machine pokemon but I don't believe for a second diana has ever touched a washing machine or anything like that in her life.

She'd cook lucca breakfast over an open fire and wash their clothes in a river.

>>281699608
I'm 100% sure we'll go back to Area Zero eventually, the covered nearly every gen 9 Pokemon except for a slew of paradoxmons now.

>>281702082
Cute and gay.

>>281701427
Right now they definitely seem to be making an effort to showcase the few remaining regular gen 9 mons.

>Pokémon Anime Recap:
>"That means I'll protect you too!". Despite their fighting, Roy and Uruto work well together in battles, demonstrating excellent teamwork that makes full use of Mega Evolution. In episode 107, currently available on Youtube, they bonded even further. And look forward to learning how they first met in Episode Mega Evolution!

Night anons!
