Aside of fighting TRio, Raboot looks bored. C'mon Go, make it fight against wild Pokemons and trainers as well. Who cares if these are Ash speciality? Also if Pikachu can cut the cage bars with Iron Tail, it could have done sooner instead of Lugia (later revealed to be Mew) saving the Pokemons inside the cage.
Also I don't get how Pikachu & Raboot combined projectile attack can hit both TRio's Crobat & Skarmory in the air, fell down and blast TRio off at the same time. I would like to see Yamper and Koharu participate as well instead of staying in the background.
So Ash, Go and Prof Sakuragi got separated into 3 teams, tagging with kids. I remember tagging with kids in high school to explore my city attractions at the time. But obviously, having Ash to battle and Go to capture surely make the kids more interested about the whole Pokemon experiences. We haven't got to see what Prof Sakuragi and the kids were doing on screen because the former isn't important for us to care enough.
I liked the encounter between Go and Farfetch'd, with the former 2 failed attempts to capture the latter because it countered the Pokeball with its leek, only to finally got captured by a slow throwing Pokeball. Along with the Mouses, Cats & Dogs trope with Rattatta, Raticate, Meowth, Persian & Growlithe.
Fun episode. Koharu needs to lighten up though.
