Okay, I've just seen the episode and wow, just wow.

I won't spoil much until a few more people have seen it but I can say it was extremely enjoyable, for me anyways, I'm a huge May fan...

 

[Ashy Boy]

What did Team Rocket do this time?

 

[Nintendo Theatre]

Well, Team Rocket, thankfully, were not a giant plot device oin this one. Like most of the GF's and Tournaments, they stayed in the background and did normal, fun Team Rocket stuff.

Why, you think Jessie would make another sad attempt to wreak havoc in the festival just like in the Hoenn region.

Nintendo Theatre, I VERY MUCH doubt you've seen the episode, so either cough up for information, or stop posting. The whole reason for this thread is for people to find out spoilers, whether they have or have not seen the episode. If people don't want to be spoiled, they don't look at this thread. Those that do look, want to know.

Of course, you haven't seen the episode at all, since the episode isn't anywhere up on the internet yet, unless you've got a super secret source that we and everyone at PocketMonsters don't know about. So either explain yourself, or stop with the crap.

Unless you're posting up actual information about the episode, don't post in this thread. The speculation thread is still open for speculation and general posting about the episode before information is released.

 

[Nintendo Theatre]

You want info, here ya go.

-The Lapras Girl is named Saori. Apparntley she's this season's Robert, she did a spectacular job during the appeal and got an extremely high rating from the judges.
-Saori and Drew, from what I can understand, apparently know each other from way back, and he really wants to beat her. I couldn't dicipher wether she was a famikly member or old firend, but when Serebii comes back, he can confirm it.
-As stated earlier, Team Rocket stayed in the background the majority of the the eppy. Thank god!
-May and Drew got past the preliminaries, duh.
-When Saori and May seem to have become good friends, not a harsh new rival like Harley.

 

[Gravy]

How about some info that we couldn't figure out from the information we've had for the past couple of weeks?
You know. Like why Shuu sent out two pokémon at once, what Harley got up to or what Haruka decided to use for her appeal. [img139]http://www.serebiiforums.com/images/icons/icon14.gif[/img139]

 

[Korobooshi Kojiro]

No offense, but pretty much all of that info was a given Nintendo Theatre. We know her name was Saori, that she knew Drew, it was kinda obvious everyone would make it through the prelims, and TR was barely in the preview. Plus, unless you live in Japan, I sincerely doubt you have seen it, or pictures.

So, can you tell us what's in the preview for next weeks episode? XD

 

[vaporeon89]

Can anyone tell about any new Pokemon or attack in this episode?

Here ya go:

-Harley past perlims right now, facing off against May. Bannette was his appeal
-Shuu, or Drew, sent out two Pokemon for a better chance at appeal, Roselia and Masquerain.
-May used Eevee in her appeal

Enough for ya?

 

[Korobooshi Kojiro]

Okay, I'm gonna listen to you, but majide if any of those turn out to be wrong, well expect some negative rep from me.

But, I'll take my leave now until pictures come. But, did May get any of her oldies back?

I always tell you to take my translations with a pinch of salt, but you'd probably be better off putting that salt into one of Nintendo Theatre's open wounds.

• Aipom in opening now wears Ash's hat.
• May appeals with Combusken
• The new girl's hometown La Rousse
• Aipom shows up and steals Ash's hat.
• Drew appeals with Absol
• Harley appeals with Banette
• Harley battles with Wigglytuff and ???, May with Munchlax and Eevee.

...La Rousee? Wasn't that the place from the Deoyxs movie? o__o

Harley has with WIGGLYTUFF?

Oh dear. Oh deary, deary me. At first I was disgusted, but now I just can't just laughing. They really want to drive a *certain point* about Harley across, don't they? *chuckles* I was pretty depressed cause I'm cleaning my room, but damn, this has put a smile on my face.

...Still. It doesn't really... fit him, does it? I mean, there's the whole stereotypically camp/feminine Pokemon route you could take, but Harley's Pokemon have always been kinky/creepy. I don't know. It makes me chuckle, but I'm not whether Wiggly actually fits into his team overall. Hmmmm.

I guess they just wanted to go down the whole girly Pokemon road, heh. XD Still, Wiggly is underused and I imagine Harley's Pokemon are all male, so... let's hope this was has a huge b*tchy streak and uses Doubleslap.

*hopes Marik does the human version of Wiggly soon...* Mmmm. Pretty in Pink.

Oh, and Nintendo Theatre? Expect a warning for spreading false information.

Hoo boy.

• Aipom in opening now wears Ash's hat.

• 
  
  OH NOES!
  
  

  [*]May appeals with Combusken

  
  Eh, I would have prefered Eevee but ok.
  
  

  [*]The new girl's hometown La Rousse

  
  Isn't that the city from the Deoxys movie?
  
  

  [*]Aipom shows up and steals Ash's hat.

  
  Crap. They just HAD to waste screentime with Aipom, didn't they?
  
  

  [*]Drew appeals with Absol

  
  Awesome, couldn't have asked for a better Pokemon.
  
  

  [*]Harley battles with Wigglytuff and ???, May with Munchlax and Eevee.

Wigglytuff? X_x

 

[Kabuto]

Wigglytuff ?! Wouldn't have expected that for Harley. It does fit him well though. Drew has Absol eh? Cool, but I'd have liked Gardevoir.

 

[Torkoal Stu]

Wigglytuff? X_x

My thoughts exactly.

Though Absol nice ^_^

 

[BrokenDreams]

So which is the true info, I mean it's to early. Plus I think they should have flashbacks of the first Indigo Championships since it was Ash's first tournament. Please no bash on my opinion.

 

[CyberCubed]

Zora has the correct info 98% of the time.

 

[Pikachu]

I'm confused, which information is true again?
