Remember: Both Kyogre and Groudon are on the poster. We may get a parallel version with Team Aqua next week.... Besides, I don't see why you're surprised Courtney was odd, her ORAS incarnation was crazy as fuck anyways...

IGN is Team Magma and: HOLY FUCK THAT SCEPTILE. PRIMARY LOTUS THAT GOLBAT LOL.

"Aaaand she's pissed. Oh boy." Rafael's eye twitched once more as he looked at the very rapidly approaching girl he'd just stabbed, rapidly approaching and on fire too. That was actually pretty cool, if very dangerous... Seeing very few other options, he attempted to jump to the side, only for the fist to graze his arm and his jacket quickly caught on fire and Rafael quickly took it off and threw it to the side. Something caught his eye as she went past him however, a sheathed weapon, most likely the thing he kept sensing the pull from. Though with his current amount of Lumen and his quite ra

Darmanitan

Lance's cheating coming in handy for once

Rafael scowled as he saw his ruined knife fall to ground, useless, but had to soon jump out of the way of the second coming of the bird of flame. "Tch, now I have to get another one of them." He muttered as he started walking towards Rame, having taken two more knives out before walking towards the white haired girl, flinching every few seconds because of the burn on his arm. After getting close enough, he felt it. That same feeling he did only a few minutes earlier. Rafael looked closely at his opponent, but couldn't exactly make out what it was from his current distance. Deciding that waiti

Silver's exclusion was weird, but I'm hoping he gets a whole episode dedicated to him, like Blue did.

Might have been a different studio, the style is noticeably different. Honestly, I absolutely love how people complain about "Pokemon not giving them a more mature anime, or at least one without Ash." Then when they DO give you just that, you guys complain about minor factors. Like, no wonder they rarely try stuff like this.... The animation here was just fine, it was wonky and inconsistent at certain parts, yes, but quite frankly, it didn't affect my opinion of it all that much. It made the rockets look drunk as fuck and quite dumb, which they are, so that's accurate enough. What the fuck

Will, MIGHT have been a recent addition to the E4. IDK. Of the E4 still kinda makes sense, since he's the Champion of the E4 and was an E4 member himself. Either that or Team Rocket's behind the times.

So....Episode 4. I feel as if the time limit works best on episodes like this and episode 2. It can feature a small storyline just fine and it did it well, instead of focusing on battling and leaving us unsatisfied. The animation was wonky at certain parts, but more so funny wonky. The grunts looked hilarious and I feel like that's more of a positive here, since the rocket grunts are jobbers at their core. They're also trying REALLY hard to make Dragonite a badass because jesus christ, just look at him. I also liked Gold's cameo here. It seems to be a slight change from the canon HGSS sto

Basil - Sky Pillar Scuttling through the winding streets of the enclave took the large scorpion a while. He wasn't as familiar with it as most of the other Pokemon that had taken residence there, being a recent arrival to the island. "Ugh...why does my house have to be so darn far away...." Basil groaned as he walked down the road before turning around, finally seeing the little area that the injured had come to rest after having returned from Johto. Looking around the area, the Drapion attempted to find the familiar shape of the little Spoink that had started living with him, though he was h

Huh, neat. Just wondering what you're using to take screenshots of this playthrough.

"Damn. At least that's one of them out of the way for now...." Rafael sighed as he looked at the approaching flaming spheres. After what he just did, he wouldn't be able to run out of the way completely, especially since there were two of them coming at decent speeds. Accepting that he was not going to come out of this one unscathed, Rafael ran towards the right of one though it burnt a part of his brown jacket and cause a slight burn on his left arm. "Tsk. Note to self, do not piss her off..or anyone here, though the threat of being burned alive is definitely higher on my priority list at the

Rafael looked towards the approaching sphere of energy that was dipping down slowly, probably attempting to stop him from moving before following up. To dodge it, he simply jumped to the left before moving a bit further into that direction. "Well, whoever said good things come to those who wait must've been a very lucky person..." Rafael muttered as he looked at the person directly to his left only to notice that he felt the same distinct feeling he felt when near any other magnetic object, as well as the fact that there was a decently sized sphere made of flames hurtling towards his soon to b

Eh, while it is the E4, we kinda already know what the battles are like. I was more so watching this for what Blue was feeling/thinking fighting the E4, because this is meant to be from his perspective. And I got what I wanted, a lot of it. The voice acting could've been better, it was kinda chunky tbh. But that might be because they tried to quote the games a bit too much here.

Rafael took a few moments to walk where he was supposed to stand, thinking on what to do in the upcoming match. It wouldn't do to go in recklessly and get himself taken out right away. He'd bide his time, after all, good things come to those who wait. He spun the blades in his hand, as he looked around him. "Well then, whenever y'all ready, I guess." Rafael asked glancing at the other 5 participants of their little spar. There'd be no turning back after this, well, there wasn't any in the first place.

The lack of full battles was to be expected tbh, however, I absolutely loved what they did show. Alakazam destroying Lapras? Amazing. The intro with the Elite Four was absolutely glorious too. Lorelei and Bruno were kinda eh but Agatha and Lance's sections more than made up for it. Gengar's entrance was pretty well animated and Agatha herself was horrifying. Fun fact, the pose Lance struck before Dragonite and Blastoise went for close combat was his GSC pose. In the end, I found it to be a pretty good showing of how Blue must have felt challenging the E4 and his anxiousness while waiting for

Having spent most of the Plane trip here completely and utterly bored, Rafael looked at the agitated lady in a mixture of surprise and joy. At least they were getting straight into it, instead of spending a lot of time wasting away in some room before doing anything. Seems like they'd have to make a decent early showing, something he was quite capable of doing. Especially here, especially in a forest like this. "Let's see here....." He shifted around a bit, discreetly grabbing one of his knives from his pouch, he'd rather be able to get started quickly than have to fumble around for one of the

Ez donezo. Edit: Fixed a bit of a contradiction I found.

I'll just put this down as a placeholder while I'm working on this....
