Hi all
Just a notice, we recently discovered that someone got into a moderator account and started hard deleting a load of key and legacy threads...around 150 threads have been lost dating back to 2007 and some weeks ago so we can't roll the forums back.
Luckily no personal data could be accessed by this moderator, and we've altered the permissions so hard deleting isn't possible in the future
Sorry for any inconvenience with this and sorry for any lost posts. -

I dunno I kinda like that schtick of his of reacting to everyone with angry face.@UnovaMaster pls stop angryme i love you pls calm down
It makes for good memes lol.
In this episode, Eevee and Grookey become drug mules, and are either the worst ones ever because they take forever or the best ones ever because who would attack something so preciously stupid that they can’t recognize their trainers behind fake bushes, but also know to look both ways before crossing the street? Either way, this was a very cute episode about trusting your Pokémon with tasks. The bandanas the two were wearing gave me some major Mystery Dungeon vibes!
Team Rocket’s struggles with Morpeko continue to be the weak spot of this episode/series. This is not a likeable Pokémon in the slightest and I was quite heartbroken to see their B-story of tricking Pelipper into getting ice cream for their Apple pie end with Morpeko wolfing the whole thing down. Looks like using Appletun and Vanilite as food decoys didn’t work. But I AM kinda happy to see Pelipper being a bit of a mainstay. I think the Gacha machine solely exists to randomly spew out the Galar Pokémon we’re never gonna see since this season is the first to not take place entirely in Galar. Which works, even though it’s a bit cheap.
Speaking of seeing Pokémon, holy cow, Ash was carrying more than just Pikachu and we finally saw Gengar again. I really liked how Ash was in this episode. He definitely felt like the seasoned trainer/big brother here, doing his best to push Grookey and Eevee onto the right path. I gotta ask though, what was the goal with Goh putting on Ash’s clothes? I mean, I get WHY, it was to probably pull Grookey away from the ice cream truck inconspicuously, but since none of the characters even reached the truck in time, it felt pointless….well, at least the FirstFriendshippers have a new glorious muse. Look out Serena, you’re not the only one to have worn Ash’s clothes now~
One thing I’m surprised no one has brought up yet was that…..moist….bit of Sakuga we got when Grookey was walking towards Goh at the end. That was a genuinely beautiful scene from a character animation perspective as Grookey was definitely walking like he was exhausted, but determined to reach Goh, making that hug all the more satisfying. Was it a tad overdramatic? Sure, but they gave Grookey GHIBLI TEARS, come on, how can you hate on grape-sized droplets of grief?!
But overall, this was a fine filler. Moral of the story is; get Grookey and Eevee an iPad so they’ll stand still for a minute and Team Rocket needs to stop bringing home takeout and just eat out so Morpeko won’t scarf it all when they walk in!
Next time, it looks like TR decides to dump Morpeko on Goh. This honestly sounds like a good idea. Have him catch Morpeko and make him Eternatus 2.0. I hate that gluttonous gerbil more than anything.

Really appreciated the way they handled Ash here. Like an older brother to the less experienced newcomers, and handling all the situations to not mess with the newcomers’ goals. That’s how Ash should be treated at this point, a mentor figure that can still be silly and fun

I wonder why people make these pointless comparisons? There's literally zero hints of Gou ever ""liking"" ash as in romantically.

Not thinking twice!
On the bright side, new OP chapter today as well!

Paid more attention to that than this ep, was good shitz :3
Easy there, I’m just having fun. I ship these guys as a joke and for the art, not as a serious “THESE TWO MUST GET TOGETHER OR I WILL RIOT”.
But if you ARE curious, Goh does blush around Ash a bit and the two are shown being more handsy with each other than basically any of Ash’s old companions. Does that mean romance? Absolutely not, but it still counts as fodder for fan art.

Kind of funny how Appletun and Flapple are barely any bigger than Applin going by the game height.

Well she’s still the only one who can say she got into his pants.
As if characters not liking each other have ever stopped fujos.

I just find it dumb to ship characters when there's no romantic angle/subtext. If you do it for the gags then i got no problem with it, have fun :>

Well, this is sad. Ash finally uses...some of his Journeys team...in a ******* filler episode.
That gatcha machine kind of makes it very redundant to have TRio around, or even have them go to Galar. What's the point of showing off Galar Pokemon if their organization already caught them and they express no interest whatsoever in catching Galar Pokemon.

Yeah, it's not like Go's blushed more times around Ash that makes Serena look aromantic by comparison

I don't mind Galarian Pokemon occasionally debuting outside their region. Since this isn't a Galar only series they have to find other ways to reveal all of the new Pokemon

I mean they couod still find better ways than Gacha machine debuts. We got episodes about such random pokemon, it seems like they go are going out of their way to not promote the Galar mons barring a select few that have been captured

This episode reminds me of the XYZ episode which Chespin & Bunnelby were running errands. The difference is that Bunnelby is much more responsible at doing these tasks.
In this episode Grookey is similar to Chespin, mischievious. And Eevee, is just having an habit to imitate others so if she tagged with a Pokemon just as responsible as Bunnelby the errand thing would have gone effectively but it would destroy the purpose of the episode, since you want 2 inexperienced Pokemons to do the tasks.
I'm surprised that Eevee got scared by Gengar when I remembered at JN057 that it made fun of the latter pranks by imitation.
I see that Eevee is more law abiding when it's about crossing the street. I think it's because it isn't as wild than Grookey since it might learn few things at the Eevee laboratory prior its debut episode.
Poor the gacha Pokemons being used as food puns because TRio were hungry. Of course, Pelipper would find its way from its tasks quickly as it can fly unlike Grookey & Eevee.
As for Morpeko eating things, I think TRio should supervise it more maybe trying to set up a barrier before they can eat peacefully.
Fun episode. I like Pokemon-only interactions especially that we didn't see much of Eevee & Grookey interactions before.
