- Goh's character writing and how well Project Mew complimented him, but also other aspects such as his individual episodes with Cubone, Flygon, Celebi-Tokio and Floette being a big highlight for me. His arcs with Cinderace and Inteleon were beautiful too
- Ash's achievements as in getting mega evolution, getting Lucario Dragonite and Gengar, beating champions esp Cynthia, beating elite four, the entirety of Ash vs Leon, how mature he was in mentoring Goh and ofc the way his Alolan champion title was reinforced and respected in one of the best if not the best JN episode ever, the alolan battle royale episode
- Chloe's character and episodes. Even if her arc ended in the most predictable way and I would have preferred if her Eevee evolved
- The continuity galore. Highlights are definitely Gary, Lillie, Serena, Iris and Paul, but absolutely loved Clemont Bonnie, Sophocles and catching up with rest of the alolan squad, Dawn's reappearances as well. Aside from the AG debacle liked Greninja as well, aside from no reserves in the PWC at any time loved them training the new time as well. Miffed about Mewtwo, disliked Alain's handling. Love all the other details tho like all the other returns, Cassidy and Butch conclusion, etc.
- The Arceus specials were some top tier episodes man and LITERALLY DP 2.0 I'm still amazed at how high quality and amazing they were
- Some fillers were really fun, and I absolutely loved the acid trip that were the Satoking episodes.
- The concept of the Masters tournament and just seeing all the champions together
Journeys only made three good choices
- Finally giving Iris her rightfully deserved spot and giving her the most development than everyone not named Lillie.
- Having Serena be by herself and exploring her character outside the ship. 60 seconds was long enough
- Aether special.
- Lipstick scene
That’s about all I got.
What about the Arceus specials and our precious DP squad again
