Yes! Here for an episode of the epic series Pokemon Best Wishes! Decolora Adventure!
Totally psyched for this episode! Shoot, have to reboot my viewer because the sound is crap... Okay, that doesn't work.. Oh well.. I might stop watching half way.. I'm getting skipping sound and can't get rid of it.. Halfway through the episode, I'm the only one who has posted yet.. Is nobody else totally excited for this episode? I thought this series was liked for the quality it produces and the fanservice? This is mighty odd, is nobody else watching this?
- The fog starts immediately, Ash recognizes the being as a Zoroark immediately.
- They think they're going to crash, but alas, nope..
- Here comes Parker.. Understanding dialogue is hard with skipping sound.. -.-
- The group asks what the heck just happens, Parker doesn't know...
- They approach an island, but as they look in the distance, a mysterious individual is lurking about on the ship..
Opening..
- Wow, just realized that Team Rocket is in a Basculin submarine as the group have gotten off the ship.
- Team Rocket are obviously plotting, while the group heads into a diner.
- They think they're being attacked by a Snorlax, but it's just the guy serving the goods up..
- Somethings up.. The guy gives directions to some place.. Cilan takes a guide to the island..
- The mysterious character follows the group..
- Wow.. That's interesting.. The bridge has disappeared.
- Wow.. Team Rocket followed them in scuba gear.
- Lol.. That map looks like the US, somewhat...
- Ahh.. Low tide gives access to the island, where have I seen this before? (vs. Brawly, Crystal Onix?)
- Team Rocket tail them..
- Ash and co have arrived at the island.. Cilan does his usual 'I'm excited'-pose while Iris is sharing my reaction to that..
- They hear a T-rex approaching.. Oh wait, it's a Kuitaran.. Flamethrower ala Charizard in the first opening...
- Wow.. Axew gets Sleep Powdered by a Foongus for some reason..
- The Kuitaran gives chase, and this is all starting to like The Lost World for some reason, we just need our guys dangling off a cliff in a trailer/rv
- Pikachu to the rescue.. Thunderbolt and Electro Ball, Heatmor is uneffected..
- Pikachu and Ash fall off the cliff, how unexpected, oh wait, Ash saves Pikachu by grabbing the tail..
- The mysterious character stops the Heatmor by stretching the arms wide.. Epic..
- The Heatmor leaves into the fog...
- Shift to Team Rocket in the fog (might have missed something though)
- Here's the giant Meowth. A bit less intimidating to be honest..
- Team Rocket is pooping their pants, and arriving on a cliff of their own as well.. -.-
- What is the giant Meowth doing? Just scaring them and they fall off a cliff..
Dare Da: Zoroark..
- Break...
Continuing:
- Axew is still sleepy..
- Cilan is lost, he sure isn't a Brock rip-off..
- Ah.. A Pokemon Center..
- A bit dilapidated though..
- Wooper and Lotad!!!
And a bunch of other wild pokemon that are scared as heck..
- Ah.. Iris asks for help and here comes an Audino.. and a Joy..
- Apparently, the group has lost track of the mysterious fellow in the meantime, while Audino brings medicine..
- Wait.. Audino and Joy are suspiciously taking turns in walking out of the backroom...
- Ash is an idiot, but this is slightly getting funnier everytime..
- "Joy" has her bedhair look.. Getting sexy back I see
- "Joy" mashes some Oran and Sitrus Berries into a paste for Axew..
- Yay, Axew awoke, another useless plotpoint fixed.. And is now jumping for joy [excuse the pun]..
EVOLVE ALREADY!!!
- Here's the mysterious perso.. OMG JOY?!?!?! Old Joy.. -.-
- She's a Pokemon blabla.. She has a police badge.. Joy/Jenny-identity crisis..
- The first "Joy" is being confronted by the second Joy..
- Omg, first "Joy" is shining like Jesus!
- Missed a bit, but apparently, we got a flashback between that Joy and what turns out to be a Zorua.. -.-
- Old Joy apparently left this place, and ABANDONED Zorua!
- We see Zorua evolving into Zoroark in the illusion/flashback... Trippy stuff..
- There's poachers on the island.. Which is why Zoroark did all those things like morphing into Heatmor.
- Makes you think some psychoanalytical issues, what did Heatmor ever do to it for it to think of it as the scariest thing ever?
- Iris has an idea.. She holds up Axew.. YES GET RID OF AXEW IRIS!!!
- The logic escapes me, but whatever.. -.-
- Ash is holding his arms crossed.. He obviously has trouble with this logic as well.. -.-
- Ah.. Zoroark finally reveals himself to the old Joy in the Pokécenter..
- They hug.. how cute.. Now what is going to happen next??? Team Rocket attack the Pokécenter of course!
- Or not.. They fix up the pokémon center that's what! :S
- Wait.. That's it? They just leave the island on the ship? AND THAT'S IT???
- End of episode...
Well, can't say that this wasn't a
top class episode worthy of the wait for Zoroarks animé debut after all these years.
Side note: Zoroark's design continues to strike me as offputting.. These aren't the eighties anymore! Get rid of those shoulder pads!
