Oh my, what a crazy, action-packed episode. In my opinion, the best episode of Horizons since the very beginning.
Also, seeing the Gibeon's Pokemon, I have the impression that Legends Z-A hype will not miss the anime.
There will be no episode next week(05.03), and in 2 weeks(12.04) beginning of the school arc in Naranja Academy.(NEW TRAILER)
Also, next time new OP & ED!
Opening: "Will" by IVE
Ending: "Let me battle" by 9Lana ft. Giga&TeddyLoid
Finally a proper approach to Scarlet/Violet content. I cant wait for it!
Even though Horizons has been going on for almost exactly a year, I feel like the real gen 9 anime is just getting started.

I wouldn't be surprised if the reason they added
at the last minute was to culminate in the anime adaptation of "Legends Z-A".

Judging by Gibeon's hair, my suspicions that he might be Amethio's father are greater now.
I only imagined this at the time because some people said at the beginning of the show that they could do a "Zuko arc" with Amethio.

EDIT: semantic correction (not my native lang), I added the words the reason they.

PEAK EPISODE RIGHT HERE. We have known this was coming for a while and it did not disappoint at all. Rayquaza vs the Rising Volt Attackers and Amethio was epic as expected, and seeing terastallised Charizard and Ceruledge was a real treat. At last Sprigatito evolved into a Floragato (despite being spoiled in the PVs) so hopefully more evolutions are in store for the near future. Everyone reaffirmed their goals and with that this long arc is at an end, making way for a much needed training arc to begin. I am glad we are finally going to be seeing more of Paldea and the school there which is what I originally expected Horizons to be about. Oh and the tease of Zygarde was unexpected but very cool. Maybe they will tie the story into Legends Z-A in the future? Can't wait to see where they take this next arc in the coming weeks, and of course to see everyone learn all about terastal Pokemon.

Couldn't catch Black Rayquaza and the ship is broken... this is just another Vogue Merry situation, let's repair it and try again, now we can say RIP to Sprigatito and welcome to Floragato (as it was hinted in the magazine, the evolution was expected). Can't wait for Paldea now! :D

Only two legendary shinies but that's two more than the usual.

Good that we will finally see the Academy. Hyped for Larry.

This might actually be my favourite Pokémon series I've ever watched, its genuinely so good. Like every episode is something new and the characters are so good and not boring at all. Particularly friede and Liko are really good. I'm honestly so happy and surprised they didn't do some stupid plot armour and have them somehow beat black Rayquaza and I knew once it pulled out dragon ascent it was over.

The explorers are also so good especially Amethio he's such a good Villain and never in a million years was I expecting Sprigatito to evolve in this episode. Honestly I wasn't expecting their partners to evolve at all if I'm being honest. But now I have hope we will eventually see them evolve into Skeledirge and MeowScarada.

(Not even lying I teared up slightly from hype seeing Sprigatito evolve)

ngl I only noticed at the end of the episode how badly the ship had actually been damaged by Rayquaza so that surprised me and just when I thought I wouldn't be more surprised the leader of the explorers casually has a Shiny Zygarde behind him and has some kind of connection to Lucius.

Genuinely this series is incredible and my rating of its gone up to an 8/10

@Phantom_373 They literally showed Sprigatito evolving at the end of the previous episode though.
I'm finding the characters too boring tbh. They don't have much real ambition and motivation and when they do, it's very poorly founded. Also they spend time slowly training, training, training, but to achieve those same weak ambitions. No wonder this season is barely being talked about, even though it shows more effort put into it than previous seasons in many areas. However this can be fixed in some cases, like Amethio. I think he's Gibeon's son and wants his approval or something.

If you’re talking about a prieview or something at the end of the last episode I avoid those. Makes the experience of watching it better.

And I think it’s not being talked about cause to many people are stuck in the nostalgia of ash and don’t want to let go of him.

Amazing fight there. Damn it's actually been a year since the anime started. Liko, Roy and Dot are going to school starting next week for terastal training.

Also the 3rd OP Theme song is titled "Will" by South Korean girl group IVE. And the new ED Theme song is titled "Let me Battle" by 9Lana.

I'm excited for the visuals!!!!
Oppai check!

What the... a shiny ZYGARDE!? Oh boy, teasing the upcoming Pokemon Legends Z-A in the anime is such a Sucker Punch lol

The boys entering school sounds fun, it could be reminiscent of Ash's school days in Alola if done well. It had amazing effects on the latter after all lol
THANKS SENPIEX

@Dripz2012 Well, technically, we're still in the same season of Pokemon Horizons.Only the story arcs change.
We are already after two of them, and the third one, titled "Terastal debut", will start on April 12.
There was no episode today(April 5).

Sprigatito has the perfect look to be the main mascot of the show, I hope they won't regret evolving it, since it's defo a ballsy move that should be praised, but it has its pros and cons.

Also, I hope Nemona will become a recurring character in the school arc.

Didn't expect Sprigatito to evolve so soon damn though when you binge 45 episodes in a few days you fail to realize this aired over the course of a year. Hype to see more Gibeon and my wife Rika's anime debut!
