TR hits again with a truck.
(Just how many secret bases do they have in this region?)
Sylveon/Ninfia is cute, but Froakie/Keromatsu is just cool beyond words.

Knew that preview last episode was just a copout. Ash is even cocky enough to accept the condition and not even getting what that means one way or the other. Dense as fuck and always will be. Serena did get jelly for some moments there. Could have been an episode heavy on the shipping but they didn't follow up on it. Ah well.
Just a standard episode of the day. Nothing to write about. The did introduce the Fairy typing for Sylveon. Sudden but just as well.
Espurr next episode. The Pokemon that got a lot of memes because of its creepy looks. Should be fun.

Kinda disappointed..I really thought shipping will get interesting today....because premiere was a nice looking for a shipping fight......just like before ..like enabel or angy...they are not concentrating well on this shipping which is one of the main attraction of XY series .....it's been some episode passed after ashxserena moments....today was a nice opportunity to recall shipping again ...well I hope they have some plans for it

Heh, guess you were right after all belatkuro.
Disappointing, but Serena was a jelly for a few moments.
Froakie was pretty cool this ep though.
Another typical episode.
Espurr next episode :)

Sylveon was pretty cute and I liked how they showed what it can do with its feelers
The battle between sylveon and froakie was a bit disappointing though.... I don't like how attract in combination with draining kiss was used to finish froakie off because sylveon seems less powerful that way.

Even when you have to hold the filling? Had very bad start the episode, even Ash and Premier explained how they met, so far below.

Love that Sylveon. That is an awesome pokemon. Froakie was cool too, helping get Sylveon out of that capsule.

I had expected a misunderstanding from the preview and I guess the shipping won't happen so early but it was good to see Serena having a brief moment even though it was one sided.

It was good to see Sylveon/Ninfia so soon and it's quite cute and I liked the way how they showed use of it's feelers. Froakie/Keromatsu was cool as usual and the upgrade in animation really shows it as usual.

Espurr next episode but it seems like they are having a one week break so we are gonna have to wait for a while!!

4/5

It feels like I've seen this episode before. An old pokemon episode with a similar story. A boy also scared of pokemon but ends up not being scared anymore.

Aw, the misunderstanding of Serena was cut off quickly.
Oh well, the battle isn't as intense, but I like how Froakie uses Water Pulse like Naruto doing his Rasengan. Hell yeah.

I betcha that Espurr/Nyasper will become Serena's pokemon, as seen in the games that the rival has Espurr.

Ok episode, boy scared of Pokemon, but then is not scared after helping out. I want more Serena and Ash, and hopefully Serena can open more to Ash and show her lovey dovey side. I think I know an good episode which could bring out some romance.

Wow Team Rocket finally has two good Pokemon types Ghost/Psychic, but they lose. Smh,

There was an episode exactly the same as this over ten years ago before I stopped watching for 10 years. I'm surprised only one person remembers.

Not even Ash remembered that he had previously done the exact same thing with another class after being met the same way by a teacher only last time at first all the kids were pulling Pikachu's face and all the other Pokemon's and they didn't like it and there was also the same thing about a boy being scared of them and Team Rocket I'm pretty sure pulled the truck stunt that time too.

I thought the moment he got taken to the class "this already happened years ago, can't they come up with something new?" and I hadn't seen the other episode it was a rip off in probably more like over 12 or more years and yet I remembered it.

Decent episode this time.. finally we get to know Sylveon, one of the newly introduced fairy type pokemon.. but i actually hoped that they give more sight about it though since ash supposed to be surprise to meet the new type of pokemon since fairy type didn't exist in the previous region..

Anyway, we get to deal with team rocket again.. and as usual they got their ass kicked pretty quickly in this episode.. a good episode.. looking forward to see the next ones.. 5/5

Sometimes I wonder where did Team Rocket get all their funds, when they've never captured pokemon.... but their main purpose to capture pokemon is so that it pleases Giovanni and they'd be given bonus or promotion.... so couldn't they just "save"? It would be a good moral for children.

love the "eye meeting = battle" rule in the start of the episode.

but the rest of the episode was the regular "kindergarten with one problematic child, and team rocket comes with a truck" lol, how much episodes like this we have?
well, that's just shows that XY had to have some weak episodes, how they presented silvyion wasn't that good to me either.
