Plus Ultra!
I think people are misunderstanding Sophocles' intentions. He thought he and his family we're moving further away, but it turns they were staying on the island. So after mulling things over, thinking about how his friends would negatively respond to the truth, he wasn't sure how to tell them.
That's a perfectly normal perception, especially with how he was treated following the time he had given the news of him moving to his friends. Frankly, I'm upset that everyone seems to hate on him just because his character hasn't been as developed as the rest of the group's. We've seen more episodes with him as a focus over other characters like Lana and Mallow, yet they're loved more.
In the end, I liked this episode. Plus, Sophocles is the first character aside from Ash and Kiawe to have a second Pokémon on his roster! Let's just hope Charjabug isn't shafted later on...
