Something "must've" happened if this ep. has caused all this fuss. Let's see what it is...
- The gang continue their trek to Dawn's next "Gouge-your-eyes" fest. There's only one problem: They're lost in a thick forest. That's %&#$ing wonderful, people...
- Ash then lets out his Gliscor to scout ahead for a way out. What they find is a little shocking.
- They ended up finding a huge area below them, which is also heavily forested, but it also has some sheer mountains that end in a plateau up in their tops.
- Did I also mention that this place has erratic bouts of wind? Yeah? Well, I'll also mention that an Aerial Battle Master also dwells around these parts.
- Speaking of Aerial Battles, there's one going on here right now; a Chimecho is fighting against a Scizor.
- Of course, the Chimecho gets beaten to a bloody pulp by the Scizor. It then comes to mind that the Scizor is owned by the Aerial Master, whose name has slipped out of my brain, & he also has a granddaughter.
- In order to "try" to strengthen his Gliscor, Ash challenges him to an Aerial Fight, which the master accepts on the reason that he has too much time on his hands.
- Since Gliscor's Aerial fighting experience is at rock bottom, it doesn't take long for the master's Scizor to hand his #%$ over to him on a silver platter. I kind of saw that coming...
- During that time, TR is watching Gliscor get whipped from their own balloon. Because they, too, are at the mercy of sudden wind gusts, the erratic winds in this area reminds them that Aerial Fighting is not a good spectator sport, as the wind blows them toward a face on a mountain, which just so happens to have a branch jutting out of the face, & also happens to be at their level of altitude. The said branch punctures their balloon, thus sending them off into a cataclysmic ride up in the sky.
- The shut-out then turned Gliscor into an emotional wrecking ball. Why would anyone find this surprising?
- Since the day is turning late, the master shows them off into his guest house, in which they'll spend the night.
- However, Gliscor can't sleep for $@%#, & is up outside, with a lot on his mind. That brings Pikachu, & eventually Ash, to his side.
- They then decide to spend the night trying to read the winds, & because Dawn also happens to have a severe case of Insomnia, decides to help out as well, by tossing some Tin-foil Confetti into the air, thus revealing the direction of the winds to the naked eye.
- During the session, TR gets caught in the thick of it, & Gliscor crashes into them. They're finding out what he's doing, but Ash is none too pleased to see them here.
- They begin reciting their motto, but as they're doing so, the winds carry them off into the wild blue yonder, & Gliscor jumps off to rejoin Ash, or so I think...
- Next Day!! Ash feels confident this time, & thus he challenges the master to another Aerial fight, which he accepts again because he still has too much time on his hands. This guy seriously needs to start traveling, like right now.
- This time, Gliscor doesn't get whipped in a matter of seconds, & he actually starts hitting Scizor.
- Scizor is hit with a Fire Fang! That's a critical hit to the nads, here, ladies & gentlemen!
- Oh, jeez, Gliscor learns Giga Impact, the physical version of the SBC.
- But even with all of that, Scizor still manages to pull out a win for his master.
- Seeing how far Ash's Gliscor has progressed, he offers him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: to train his Gliscor further in Aerial Combat.
- Gliscor accepts this opportunity, which thus brings about an emotional parting...
Well, some of the people around here are beside themselves in tears with Gliscor being left behind, I'm not one of these people. For me, I think that Gliscor will always, in my mind, be a useless piece of #@%$. That aside, if Ash manages to get another Pokemon on his side, the chances of him, & most everyone else, forgetting about his Gliscor are almost guaranteed.
). When Charizard went, he was angry, now hes not simply as hes matured and understood how Pokemon need time to grow. Perhaps even seeing Charizard and Squirtle go away and become brilliant Pokemon influenced him; or it could just be that he doesnt view Gliscor as integral to his future plans, whereas Charizard was, even when it didnt obey him, arguably the best he had at that time.
