This is the first episode that doesn't directly adapt in game moments and instead focuses on the lore of Johto. Was nice seeing the Kimono Girls in action. While it wasn't a very exciting episode it did look really good.

I also don't think I saw the protagonist this time around either but I could be blind. Only one episode left.

Totodile trying to put out the fire made me giggle a bit too much.

I really liked this episode. It was peaceful and serene, just like the Johto region. And I love the lore.

I feel bad for the guy who got all wet in the audience because of his Totodile

Probably my favorite episode out of all of them so far. The Kimono Girls were absolutely breathtaking and stunning, and the visuals were beautiful as they combined the theatrical performance with Pokemon to tell the lore of the Johto region.

Also the Totodile scene and Morty's Gengar crying got me laughing pretty good.

That was a great episode!

That light and sound would have looked sick if it were irl.

The visuals were great too!

The scene with Totodile trying to put out the fire and Morty's Gengar crying made me chuckle lol.

I really hope this series is leading up to a Pokemon Adventures anime adaptation announcement, but who am I kidding lol

Still, I'm really enjoying watching these!

Beautiful studio Pablo backgrounds, recognized those as soon as those vibrant autumn trees were shown. A really well made show, they also showed the inner workings which was a nice addition. The actual story that was told was pretty mediocre. I guess this is the counterpart of the legendary beast and Ho-oh story. The Totodile and the Gengar part were great. Umbreon girl best girl.

The storytelling was amazing in this episode. That said, this lore was new to me meaning it must be SoulSilver's. I have only played HeartGold.

Totodile 'bout to shoot a water gun and Gengar being offered a napkin had me chuckling though.
