Satoshi panics, but Rotom decides to search for the Electric-Z for him. The truth is, Rotom is a huge fan of a crime show that's been all the rage in the Alola region lately.

>>31954520
I know it was from an hour ago, but she looks so sad it needed to be reposted because it perfectly illustrates how she must be feeling in ways no other screenshot could. That and the news is still raw. By next week we'll be starting to accept her fate and it won't be as effective.
NEW: Today's full Oha Suta episode, which featured the debut of the new movie trailer and gave us more Pokemon Club election shit.
https://mega.nz/#!8dUgGKrQ!_Qpjzd1IrYVu3upfae7Er1jcto9-a2ZgRgyKvaA1-hw
why is he jelous of lillie?
Dawn best girl.
Damn, today's episode really boosted Popplio and Litten.
>>31954563
Today's episode was great. Best episode of SM yet. The only negatives were in the artstyle, which isn't a fault of the episode.
>Tenten prominent
Ahhh, Yukarin, it's been too long.
This episode was way better that I expected. The animation was great, and the slapstick humor was actually good this time. Popplio and Rowlet are very funny together.
>>31954585
Holy shit what's with that filter?
>>31954587
Looks like a literal photo of the screen.
So todays episode basically confirmed a Litten capture.
Right now I can't see it being similar to Bewear in the means that it's going to apparently stay uncaught.
>>31954585
loved every second rowlet was on screen
>>31954542
Based
>>31954538
>>31954585
Birb just wants to be loved. Cute.
>>31954585
>that Surien
Uwaa, scary
>>31954610
She was top action girl today
>>31954585
Did you literally take a photo of your screen?
>>31954603
Cute. I couldn't agree more.
>>31954585
I give it a 7 out of 10. It's basically a fun little filler episode in any other season (with some potential plot importance later on). Alas, this is among the best stuff SM has to offer, so kind of have to count our blessings here.
>>31954573
I think it was pretty good too. The art style really doesn't bother me since I feel like it meshes well with this new approach.
>>31954610
The face she made when grabbing Ash's arm was amazing.
>>31954585
Why does Lana bully Pop?
>>31954643
It's not the whole artstyle I have a problem with. Really it's just the way Team Rocket look and whenever they do that ultra-detail grotesque look that I don't like.
>>31954643
The art style is generally fine when it comes to the actual Pokemon. This being a Pokemon-centric episode helped.
>>31954573
>Best episode of SM yet.
Not really. The first Nyabby episode was better. Today's episode was "ayyy balloon slapstick lmao" on steroids. Not bad by any means, and a lot of the humor was funny, but it was just shoved in our faces every 15 seconds like it was nothing. There's simply too much of it.
>>31954644
Pop gets to see her get naked every day. The yinyang balance would be off if there wasn't some form disadvantage to living with her.
Describe mao's role in this episode in 2 words.
So, why was the cade so triggered by the mere mention of Gramps' health that it decided to run off?
>>31954648
I'm the kind of person who can never have too much of something he likes, so that's probably why I found all of it hilarious.
>>31954623
>>31954587
>not understanding the file name
It's a picture taken from twitter, likely of a TV or computer monitor.
>>31954620
You don't normally see her so...aggressive. It's neat.
>>31954643
What face was that? I missed it.
>>31954655
Just there.
>>31954660
THIS
>>31954655
She existed
>>31954595
Shut up you shitty salty catfucker degenerate.
The royale theory is anything but confirmed by now. But seems like you can't be helped, have fun living in your delusion you Barafag autist.
>>31954656
I think it was surprised that Ash asked it in general how it was doing considering no one but Litten cares for Stoutland. It could have been surprised that Ash even remembered it existed.
I love Ash and Litten right now, I'm really excited to see what it is that pushes them to team join forces.Hopefully it isn't the doggos death.
>>31954657
>I'm the kind of person who can never have too much of something he likes
That could be potentially problematic for you later on.
>>31954659
Mao pointed out that she gets like that when Ashimari is in trouble.
>>31954672
Fortunately I don't drink, so I don't have any issues with that.
>>31954669
>barafag
And another term for the filter, thanks anon.
discuss
>>31954573
Speaking of that, since I'm not a regular in these threads anymore, how is everyone taking to the new style?
>Autismo bug boy finds a wife
>>31954672 I was literally gonna use that.
>>31954682
Claiming the qt in the middle
>>31954677
That wasn't what initially came to my mind, actually.
>>31954646
I can understand Team Rocket perhaps looking worse than they have before, but again considering that Ash also changed it feels right to me. Such a change for both also feels in sync with SM being more slice of life as I said. The ultra detail faces and such feel like they fit for similar reasons, SM being more comedic.
Granted it has been awhile since I've watched the anime, but with SM I'm sort of reminded of Kanto where the anime wasn't afraid to show that it was an anime, before it got toned down so that it could be palatable to the entire world.
>>31954671
This also reminds me that the anime made Stoutland more appealing to me than it has ever seemed before.
>>31954684
I think most people are adapting. Team Rocket looked particularly bad to me here for some reason, and this episode used far too many overly-detailed pieces, so it's more noticeable that it might have been in other episodes.
>>31954671
Whatever it is, it'll likely involve the cade being reluctant to leave the old-timer's side since it still has an uneasy feeling around Ash.
>>31954690
It's not so much that the faces don't fit as it is that they're bloody ugly to the point of being disturbing.
>>31954659
>Suiren
>She likes Water type Pokémon.
>While she's usually quiet, she's actually a girl of action.
>>31954688
Please tell me what did come to mind so I can avoid this unfortunate future you envision.
>>31954648
It's best filler.
Best "story" episode are Nyabby, Iwanko. Lillie 2nd and Kiawe's are close too.
>>31954684
Still don't like the way Ash and Jessie are drawn, but you kinda get used to it now that it's been around for so long.
>>31954702
It involves tissues and lotion. I'll leave it at that.
>>31954698
>triggered.png
>>31954708
That's why God invented refractory periods
>>31954673
Had a feeling that is what caused her reaction, it's an appealing aspect to her.
>>31954696
Suppose it's just a question of tolerance or preference then.
>>31954690
But Kanto is the only series all those "I had no idea Pokemon was from Japan" plebs watched.
Who is SM's main Pokegirl?
>>31954719
I have a very low tolerance for ugly, it's true.
>>31954714
You can still overdo it even with those built in.
>>31954726
>>31954684
>Speaking of that, since I'm not a regular in these threads anymore
How come?
>>31954698
Perfect, no wonder I like her. Just like another girl I knew.
>>31954682
Looks like more "volunteers" to me. I can see the /ss/. They'd probably get hungry at the sight of Ash too.
>>31954726
Mallow.
>>31954741
>still not getting over Adamant discovering best girlWhy continue wallowing in misery? Join us. Become enlightened, just as we have.
>>31954729
Fortunately Maccerism isn't a disease I suffer from. I was more thinking in terms of stuff I take in, like listening to the same song on repeat for hours on end without tiring of it, or being able to watch a film that was literally 100 minutes of skirts being flipped up and still enjoy it by the end.
>>31954753
>Maccerism
>>31954756
The character from GTA San Andreas who can't go 30 seconds without pleasuring himself.
>>31954648
That these kind of episodes are rare or at most are only usually bits of a greater whole is probably what makes it appealing to some. It's also a three pronged approach where it tries to appeal with humor, cuteness, and the Pokemon themselves having readily apparent personalities and traits.
>>31954720
Why this is possibly true, Kanto itself had a lot of things that you'd either see in similar anime of the time or upon looking back you can realize are from Japan. At some point the anime studio itself, not localizers, deliberately seemed to start scaling back such things, small as they were, to the point where you could probably not guess the country of origin if you didn't know anything about Pokemon.
>>31954603
cute!
>>31954751
Join the true enlightenment by accepting that long hair Serena is the best Serena.

>/ss/

>>31954696
>TR
>ugly
>>31954585
I still haven't seen the episode, but this looks hilarious out of context.
>>31954809
I meant the intentionally ugly faces like these. Team Rocket's normal SM faces are a bit offputting to me as they just don't look like Team Rocket to me, but they're not ugly.
>>31954739
Ah, lotta things. I guess near the end of XY, interest sort of started dropping off. Already called all the things that were going to happen and so many didn't believe me, like Ash making it to the last round but would not win the League, or that Serena would leave, or her at most giving him a kiss and Ash not really caring about it in a game changing way. It just got sort of tiring since even though I hadn't seen the last act, I knew how it ended, you see? They'd push the edge a bit but in the end, they'd fall back to the familiar rhythms. And they did, everything went exactly like I said. And was just tiring defending that day after day. And a little sad, deflating people's expectations.And despite what I said, I still held out hope my boy Ash would make it. I wanted to be wrong.
Was also busy with uni work and stuff. Tried to start going back to /gsg/ like I used to. Also, found another series (pic related) whose threads took up my time since I devoured it like a maniac. Don't get me wrong, I didn't leave because of the shitposting or anything like that. And I guess I come still out of obligation and tradition, and it is fun, don't get me wrong, but still trying to find the magic of SM. Maybe it's just too unfamiliar, who knows?
>>31954751
Admit it, you're as miserable as I was, because now you also have nothing. Serena's gone, and never coming back. And Adamant WILL find a girl to move on from Serena, whether it's SM, or the next show after this, or the one after. And there is no way you can say it won't ever happen. It already did!
And, in time my friend, you too will find yourself having moved on. Unless you don't and become the next Pokeshippers.
>>31954797
>hating /ss/
Way to hate literally most of the Ashbowl.
>>31954726
Mallow
>>31954835
He's too pure for love and sex.
Here's the PokeProblem segment you missed out on due to the movie trailer.
>>31954855
He doesn't have to know that. And the girls certainly don't have to tell him what it is. Just call it training, he'll go along.
>>31954870
How do you get these anyways?Never forgive never forget
>>31954870
"Which of these Pokemon gets in our way in today's episode?"
>>31954878
The answer is Nyabby, of course.
>>31954883
Pity Fatto Jr. couldn't make herself useful for once.
>>31954789
I agree with this, long hair Serena is the best Serena because is how her original designer created her in the first place (the same guy who created Dawn and Lillie).
>>31954871
/ss/ is always rape. Ash needs no woman to live the rest of his life.
>>31954829
>And there is no way you can say it won't ever happen. It already did!
Um, no.
>>31954883
Nyarth has not yet given up on trying to recruit it to the Rocket Gang
>>31954890
But it walks out on him as he tries convincing it.
>>31954895
Rude little shit.
>>31954898
>Listen to me when I talk to you!
>>31954887
Ash doesn't need to know that though.
And /ss/ isn't rape if the guy doesn't object, right?
False premises is not equal to rape in the eyes of the law, especially if both parties consent.
Now if Ash is too dumb to realize his Pokémon training is being drained dry by big girls, that's his fault. He's not functionally retarded or has any mental impairment so the law cannot say or do anything.
>>31954855
That's the best part.
>>31954829
Autism.
>>31954682
They teleported to another series?
>>31954855
Or is he?
>>31954902
Then Ash needs stop having female companions.
>>31954907
>>31954914
No rape!
>>31954596
Remove Litten and Meowth and this would make for a cool picture.
>>31954921
It's not rape when it's girl on boy.
>>31954855
Did Malva teach you nothing?
I haven't seen any new episodes since getting burnt when Satoshi fucking lost again in the final. So how is thew new series looking? Is there a path for him to go on another run for champion or is the new series just random hijinks for the hell of it with no progress?
Been on this ride since 1999 and I just want to see him become champ.
>>31954921
It's not rape if you don't scream.
You can't scream if your mouth is covered by wet lips. Whichever one you're thinking of is up to you.
>>31954946
>So how is thew new series looking?
Eh. It's okay.
>Is there a path for him to go on another run for champion or is the new series just random hijinks for the hell of it with no progress?
There's a subplot with a god specifically choosing him and giving him a Z-Ring, and he's claimed he wants to pass the Island Pilgrimage and master the Z-Moves, but not a whole lot more yet. SM19 might establish more.
>>31954946

It may be a while longer till that happens, m8.

>So today's episode basically confirmed a possible Litten capture
ftfy
It might not happen, but in my opinion, they're alluding Litten too much, enough to still be considered to be involved in possible future episodes
Episode pretty much also confirmed the set personalities for each starter, which are pretty much ripped from the actual starters' design (check the website) rather something that makes them unique without completely basing it on the designs themselves
>Rowlet will pass off as "tries to be cool but will be portrayed as calm/lazy and easily ruffled"
>Popplio will pass off as "tries to be a hard worker and get attention but will be portrayed as a bit of a clown and clumsy"
>Litten will pass off as "tries to be humble/heart of gold but will be portrayed as a bit of a sly dog and manipulative"

Ever
There's literally nothing to SM besides le ebin memegag reaction faces.
>>31954555
Ash is his, not Lillie's
>>31955245
He developed Oblivious.
>>31955257
We need the memes.
>>31955236
It's not like the anime has never suprised us
Anything can happen
>>31955281
Why would Ash need a legendary if these are the same ones that can cause disasters or protect life?
>>31955283
You just described literally every Pokémon that has ever existed.
>>31954595
>Cat fans and there senseless headcanon.
Seriously, I honestly think kukui deserves litten more.
>>31955305
Glorious Dawn.
>>31955281
>It's not like the anime has never suprised us
The Pokemon anime is quite literally the most predictable, play-it-by-the-book, stuck-in-its-comfort-zone anime currently airing on TV. When was the last time it surprised anyone?
>>31955035
>Tries to be cool but be cool but but portrayed as calm/lazy.
Your right about trying to be cool part. But
>Lazy
Common anon, use your head, even the pokemon manga stats this. Rowlet isn't lazy, he's nocturnal, he's struggling to stay awake all the Times because he's only use to the night. Like real life owls.
How will the anime handle Colress (or will they just ignore him)?
>>31955379
Literally who?!
>>31954826
K E K
The faces were exaggerated yes, but I'd be a lier if I said I didn't enjoyed them
>>31955148
Would it be wrong to say I got a team 7 vibe from Naruto out of this episode? While the Pokemon were being themselves I couldn't help but see Rowlet as Naruto for attempting to do right but messing up or causing a bit of an issue, Popplio like Sakura for keeping Rowlet in check and admiring Litten, and well Litten for being well calculated with his plan of breaking free from Team Rocket
>Overconfident
>retarded
>overreacts at everything
have you agreed yet that Rowlet is Piplup 2.0 yet?
Anyone else not that hyped up for the movie? I feel like its just gonna retell the Kanto season, but with less filler.
>>31955481
Actually Piplup 2.0 role belongs to Oshawott, Rowlett would be the 4th addition
>>31955548
Why did he stop doing these?
>>31955481
how is Rowlet retarded? he just sleeps a lot
>>31955481
sounds like sm Ash making them the perfect pair.

>>31955669
Some random autist realized there's no mod around.
>>31955676
I hope they both evolve at one point
>>31955696
They'd make a cute pairing but what does that mean for Litten? Will it not evolve into Torracat and disdainfully get involved with their hi-jinxs?

Aren't they wearing outfits from some other girls in another anime out there? I don't know the name, but I do remember two girls in these very naughty bikinis dancing dirty dances.
A cute.
A nude.
While everyone might be calling or just done with the thread for now.
I just watched the episode and it was a pretty cute episode, if anything it feels like they have a better hold on the slapstick humor and I hope they keep up with this.
Team Rocket actually blasted off this episode so I guess they're willing to not overdo Bewear going into action to save them, it mixes it up even if a bit.
Quality filler episode/10 I could enjoy the SM anime if they keep this up but I hope the Tapu Koko episode drives Ash to get started on collecting the crystals again it is why he's in Alola.

That mirror reflect it's fucking wrong.
Great episode. Funny and intense. The interaction netween the three starters was quite good, and the humor worked. Specially when Popplio and Rowlet were falling down.
Lana is scary in a an adorable way.
This is a 10/10 thread guys.
