I liked this episode. Nothing crazy happened, but it was nice to Go do one of those missions.

Really nice to see a change of environment like the mine, and it's surprising that they found a shiny Volcarona.
Too bad there were these annoying guys, but Go and Ash got rescued at least

If there's one thing that I dislike about Goh's captures it's that he'll often catch just one Pokemon from a particular evolutionary line instead of catching every member of that line in the same episode. I mean why not have him find and catch a Ferroseed here too?

lol that guy was way too sketchy, off the bat I'm like yeah that guy looks like he is up to no good.

I'm pretty disappointed that Champion Ash of Alola would be intimidated by low life theifs (Pokemon Hunters) like them, i mean he's got OP pokemons like Dragonite or Gengar or Pikachu just thunderbolt them all at once? why was he scared. Like send out all your pokemons to attack them. doesn't have to be 1v1 it can be 6ash+6goh vs how many the pokemon hunters sent out. Goh i can understand his pokemons aren't experienced that's why he was nervous.

Also whats the difference between Goh and a Pokemon hunter , nothing. Both do the same thing. roggenrola was just walking to the cave store to buy its family some food was caught by goh and now they have to go separate ways. Pokemon hunters did nothing wrong. I would have also liked to catch that Rare pokemon , rare shiny Volcarona. Goh doesn't attempt to catch it like he did to suicune??.

alright so that other lady has the counterpart of urshifu, k!! Someone else have anything they want to show? maybe that Old guy team Captain has a Dialga somewhere or a mewtwo.
Can we just focus on that Cool kid, he reminds me of Alan from XY , maybe it's his brother.
I wasn't too impressed with this episode tbh but shiny Volcarona was cool too see.
Inteleon was great , just snipes water like a gun.

This episode reminded me of the times when I used to play Pokémon Ranger Shadows of Almia, so that's why I enjoyed it a lot.

The only problem I have in this anime is when Ash/Satoshi seems in trouble against some random trainers that are evil, has happened with Team Rocket (the black uniform ones) and now with this weak Pokémon Hunters, but aside from that, I really like this season

lol yeah any of ash pokemons could probably 1v4 those guys if he tried, i swear every bad guy in this anime is weak and show off like they are the league champions

I can't believe Ash and Goh just stood there while four Pokemon Hunters actively tried to battle them. Ash literally has an OP team at the moment. Throw something out. Defend yourself dude.

I wouldn't mind having a shiny Volcarona though. I like how we're seeing Shiny Pokemon more frequently in the series now.

And oddly enough there's a shiny Voltorb in the next episode preview

Another nice simple episode this time. Go managed to fulfil his Project Mew task luckily, though the Pokemon Hunters threatened to ruin everything. I've never quite understood why Pokemon hunters are considered to be so evil when all they do is catch and trade Pokemon too, but then again I guess I really shouldn't think too hard about what are ultimately some pretty simple villains. I also always love seeing shiny Pokemon in the anime and shiny Volcarona is a particularly cool one.

last project mew episode felt much more serious, this time it felt like they just wanted them to go to another region.

i'm glad we see more shinies in the anime though, it had been a while.

there can be many reasons. he doesn't have them right now, too many on many too few and etc. the main point is that they will be rescued by the end.
thats was the whole purpose of the poor script here . . .
(it's at least better than some sun and moon episodes, and the power ranger thingy. guh)

the difference is, goh is catching them by pokeballs. pokemon that doesn't want a trainer have a choice. pokemon hunters are using force.
its always been stabilized that that pokemon trainer are befriending pokemon, and not forcing them.
though all that, if you want more plot around the point you are making, you should play pokemon black/white (not the 2 version though) it's plot of team plasma is actually revolving on those hard questions "is this ok to use pokemon?".

I think Volcarona is the first shiny Pokémon in the anime that managed to digivolve
