Loving mother AND total badass!
Or imagine if it’s a double battle Skeledirge and Kilowattrel vs Charizard and Captain Pikachu.
Roy: CAP?!

Cap: Sorry ta do this to ya Roy, but it's time for me to back to my REAL trainer. Nothing personal.

Roy: But...we spent a YEAR traveling together and went through SO much together!

Cap: Yeah...but no that I finally have Freide back after missing him so much, I know who I wanna work for.

Would make sense. Or imagine if it’s a double battle Skeledirge and Kilowattrel vs Charizard and Captain Pikachu.
Nah, Kilowattrel has already had 2 battles in a row very recently so I don't think it should be Skeledirge and Kilowattrel if it's a double battle. I would like to see Lucario alongside Skeledirge rather than Kilowattrel. Makes perfect sense since in that case Lucario gets the chance to redeem itself after losing to Nemona.

If it’s a double battle between Roy and Friede where Friede uses Charizard and Captain Pikachu then it would make perfect sense for Roy to use Skeledirge and Kilowattrel as they both look up to Charizard and Captain Pikachu respectively.

And they can always give Lucario a different battle where it wins later.

Although it’s probably just going to wind up being Skeledirge vs Charizard here.

Skeledirge does look up to Charizard for sure but does Kilowattrel look up to Captain Pikachu? I'm not really sure where you got that from.

I wouldn't be too sure about that. Horizons has had a number of double battles since the Mega Voltage arc.

MEGA LIZARDON X for Friede maybe?

**** yeah, we're finally getting the Roy vs. Friede showdown!

@Sham, you were genuinely onto something with Roy taking over the narration at the start of this arc. It wasn't just a random switch; it was setting the stage for this torch-passing moment.

The writing is clearly transitioning Roy from the kid who needs saving to the 'Leader type' who stands as an equal. This feels like his graduation exam.
I wonder could this be the episode we see Mega Lucario Z.

Three months of Roy and Unova? We are so back
I hope they make it a 2 v 2. Hopefully the writers haven’t forgotten about Kilo’s admiration of Cap. It’s also a proper send off for Cap leaving Roy’s care with a battle.

There's no way Friede doesn't have them go back to Area Zero now, right?

Also what was Friede even worried about, the Explorers following him to space? They didn't even follow Amethio to a small easily accessible island

Enough of this Liko vs Roy nonsense, FFS!

I honestly do agree with the speculation that this episode could possibly be Mega Lucario Z's debut. Mega Dragonite debuted soon after it was revealed so it's possible that the same will happen with Mega Lucario Z too. It's Friede vs Roy so I definitely expect someting special to happen in the battle.
