| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- No topic yet? I thought this was a great episode, but it seems like I was wrong about Fletchling evolving. They sure don't want to rush things in XY. Viola was as fabulous as ever, and Zakuro was unexpectedly funny. |
| Might as well make my second comment. (Bear with me as I am one of the few who does not have a 3DS nor the games yet. xD) I was quite amazed (and entertained) by the battle between two Gym Leaders Zakuro (Grant) and Viola are amazing! I love how Zakuro... Admires walls to climb~ I want more of this Battle Chateau now! I wish this feature would come back in the anime! |
 "Everyone go love Cyan!" |
| That Onix looks very powerful, and the Rock Tomb, Rock Polish, and Flash Cannon combination was nicely done. Viola vs Zakuro was a great battle. Surskit put up a good battle too. So Iris makes her return in that 1 hour special. I'm hoping Ash captures another Pokemon or one of his Pokemon evolves because it's already 20 episodes and neither of his 2 Pokemon from Kalos have evolved yet. |

FYI, the first of Ash's Pokémon to evolve in Black and White was his Pidove in BW022. And Sewaddle in the next episode (there would've been a two-episode gap if it weren't for the skipped Team Plasma special...). His Sandile technically evolved in BW020, but it wasn't his at the time. So there's no rush. ;) Loving XY so far. I hope this trend of Ash meeting the Gym Leaders in advance and training/strategising continues. It reminds me of Diamond & Pearl -- too many of the BW Gym battles were just Ash shouting random attacks. |
| That jumping Onix... impressive indeed @_@ |
 |
| Forgot to post here now that I've watched the episode. And Jesus.....Grant is strong. Rock Tomb that you can manipulate as you place, swift and nimble with Rock Polish. That's gonna be a tough behemoth to take down. |
 |
| Viola's loss was obvious even before their fight started. There is no way they're going to show the 2nd gym leader, who hasn't fought Ash yet, losing. smh. |

| I enjoyed this episode, it had a great premise with The Battle Chateau and the two gym leaders battling. Can't wait till Ash battles Grant, he's a very dangerous and strategic trainer that could be trouble for Ash. |
| Ah, Viola looked so good in that dress! But seriously, where's my in-game cape? I wanted my character to get a cape... |
 |
| Yoyoyoyoyoyo! "are they rapping?" "finally they stopped saying yo, oh spoke too soon" lol. Capes! They were two cool matches. What's Grant's obsession with Walls ... he should have been called Nico instead like the band Nico touches the walls lol. |
 |
| That's very true, but for people like me who momentarily forgot that he was a gym leader and thought he was just some wall loving weirdo, Viola's lost came as a bit of a surprise. She was definitely winning at the beginning there. She set up her ice field and everything. Honestly wish she had won though. sarroush said: Viola's loss was obvious even before their fight started.

It makes it more enjoyable and not to mentioned more balanced as it focuses more on the hard work aspect then just pure evolving. |

| If you know that Grant is the 2nd Gym Leader, then yeah obviously we know that Viola would lost.. Well, they introduced us about battle chateu, one of important spot in Kalos IMO.. but sadly i guess we would never see ash to get a higher title in the anime.. Don't really like that 2 brothers.. both of them are a little bit annoying with that "yo-yo" every time they finish their sentences.. Nice to see Viola with long hair and dress, the battle between her with Grant also done pretty well albeit a short ones.. Some hype for Grant as a 2nd gym leader.. Overall.. another great episode.. looking forward to see the next ones.. 5/5 |
Reality is the lifeblood that makes a work pulse with energy. Reality itself is entertainment  |
| ...I ship it! Grant and Viola had so much chemistry! |
| YO YO YO YO! Zakuro jizzed on Viola's shoulder then the camera moved to show his pants. Viola looked quite fine this episode. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| I didn't expect Viola to appear so fast. But I do expect her to lose to the second gym leader because then, it would've been obvious that Ash gets it in the bag. |
 |
| so we got new gym leader introduced in interesting way. ash battle was good and all, but it was pretty expected for him to win that beginner boy lol. |
| viola looked really good in that dress and grant looked cool! (ive only seen their in game art so it made a nice impression ) Will ash be doing these again? i hope so maybe he can try getting the best title and fight strong trainers. |
| Huh, around 10:30~ when Ash says "they told me the rules" it kinda sounded like Viola or the actual dub voice of Ash coming through, a lot more feminine than Ash's regular English dub voice. Fun episode, seeing a community of trainers getting ranks and stuff. Also Yo! Yo! |
 |
| Another rock type gym leader whose main is onyx. He better not have a geodude. |
