Satomine Night
The Power of Z!
Watch when the match is interrupted/stopped. We all know Ash is using Rockruff for vengeance against the one who hoofed him the wrong way.
But...but this isn't the Mudbray who kicked him into the sky in SM11; that was one of Kiawe's family's farm Mudbray. Why would Ash enact revenge on a Mudbray who hasn't wronged him?
I'm sure they'll use Mudbray's Stamina Ability. I can't see Rockruff fainting in here and we do know it'll be using a Z move. What's worse than an interrupted battle is a battle shown midway through. I don't think Abareru kun's character will be on screen that long. I think they just wanted to have someone to fight Ashlike Alan.Do you know all of Rockruff's moves? I know it learned Rock Smash. Bite and Tackle attack too?
To be more specific, Rockruff learned Rock Throw in SM15, not Rock Smash. As far as I know, the rest of its moveset hasn't been confirmed, but based on its battle with Magmar (and based off its game moveset), it's not too Farfetch'd to assume it probably knows Tackle and Bite.
I would rather we see half of the battle than this battle be rushed, but I'm not sure how I feel about the battle being interrupted. I suppose it depends on how and why it's interrupted.
