That suspense at the end. The pressure those two went through must have felt tough. Trying to open the door while the building was burning.

Citron was hilarious in one scene. The one where he makes Eureka wear his invention, her expression was hilarious.

As soon as there was a mysterious "gems of the world" exhibit I couldn't help but think of Sailor Moon, Kaito Kid, Lupin III and all those classic shows :) And then that outfit.. and name (Kaito Knuckle)... could they have copied Kaito Kid more? haha

At first i got Magic Kaito vibes from this episode, because



However at the end the motives are quite different. I was just wonderung why he didn't used to have a Cleffy. Maybe they had to fill in every new Pokemon from the games.

This was one of the better episodes of XY&Z so far for me.
I have written my own Ecchi short story. It is called Nopan Mahou Shoujo!

The sign above the locksmiths door looked like an Unown but in key form. New Unown form perhaps? xP I doubt it though. I'm on my phone so I can't post a picture (or don't know how on my phone).

How do Ash and the gang afford to stay even one night in that swanky hotel? it'd cost like a ton.

Those Binacle Pokemon were sure as hell creepy.

I thought the boy Locke when he was in his thief garb looked like that one from Sailor Moon ... never seen Kaito Kid. I wanna watch Sailor Moon sometime.

The fire blaze and saving the Pokemon was heroic.

Learn how to open locks the Pokemon way lol. It's like they are trying to turn little kids in to master thieves lol.

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).

This was good, especially compared to some recent pokemon/character of the week focused episodes. Involved both the kids and Team Rocket to some extent, interesting story with some action.

I thought the hand-type pokemon was creepy and when I realized there were two and they were separated that also seemed creepy somehow, heh. But I still like they did something different and unexpected with an established pokemon. When the anime's creative like this, sometimes it ends up being a mainstay, but I'm not sure if it'll be the case here? I don't want to think about how its evolution would work.
