January 22nd: PM2019 052 - Hands-On Agriculture Studies! Where is Digda?!

[Dephender]

A huge amount of vegetables addressed to the Sakuragi Laboratories have arrived alongside a letter. The sender is Professor Sakuragi's former student Endo, who's now a farmer. Endo writes that he's been having trouble recently due to Digda and Dugtrio ravaging his field, so Satoshi, Go and Koharu head to Endo's field to investigate and find out why these Pokémon are doing this.

Ugh interesting

 

[Sword master zacian]

i have no idea what is going to happen in his episode

 

[Blue Saturday]

Reminds me of the old Digda research episodes from Kanto/Jouto.

Definitely not my cup of tea, but [PM] has to recycle lore and make their way through the Kanto Dex and I suppose it’s the easiest route to go with Digda while bringing in a bit of nostalgia?

 

[Ultra Beast Lover]

As long as we don't have to hear them sing I'm willing to see what happens here.

 

[Mega Ampharos the Dragon]

Inb4 it is the Alolan version of Dig those Diglett

 

[ImBeVillain]

Probably it's Goh catching episode

 

[Tabasco Boshi]

This one seems to be the most uninteresting one of the batch so, following this series trend, it will probably be the best one.

 

[Kawaii Emolga]

Soooo... They will try to make a garden but it keeps getting ruined by the Diglets?!
This one seems like like filler to me (of course, with a Go capture)

After every seemingly important episode(s), there's always going to be some sort of filler before we're right back on que.

I swear they give the most odd pokemon focus in this series

I'm ok with this tbh, better than only giving focus to popular pokémon who already got a lot of focus.

Watch it be about the Diglett subplot in the IoA, hunting them down for the guy who requires them for whatever reason..

 

[Mythical-Moonlight]

Watch it be about the Diglett subplot in the IoA, hunting them down for the guy who requires them for whatever reason..

Oh I didn't even think about that! That would be a great idea

Tho admittedly I'm doubtful this episode will be in Galar

 

[kickachu]

Which form of Diggett you think it is alolan or kanto?

 

[Sword master zacian]

i think kanto

 

[Icy-Snowflake]

Watch it be about the Diglett subplot in the IoA, hunting them down for the guy who requires them for whatever reason..

And they randomly end up in Hoenn/Johto/Kanto in the next episode

 

[Mew29240]

Anyone think this episode will have anything to do with Diglett's Cave? One of its entry/exit points is right outside of Vermillion City after all, so it would be a pretty good way to bring Diglett up.

 

[Mega Ampharos the Dragon]

Oh I didn't even think about that! That would be a great idea

Tho admittedly I'm doubtful this episode will be in Galar

But every time when Ash and Goh go to Galar, they're always there for at least 2 episodes, and this episode is after the Galar Fossils episode.

Coincidence? I think NOT!

I wonder why @nuzamaki90 didn't post "Skip" here.
