Shitris? Jobbing

Who?

Press S (Spit) on Lance and his fans

Man that's pretty fucking wild. Never expected to ever see him again even as a cameo. I wonder if they simply remembered he existed due to that collaboration animation from a few months ago. Maybe we'll actually see May for Ash vs Steven.

Casey cameo soon, r-right?

Lance dissapointed 2 regions

So who jobbed harder? Lance or Alain?

Why is Dracovish using Ice Fang? He should be using Fishious Rend. Why is Ash not teaching him that yet? He'd win it all.

>Ash: Lance!
>Lance: Hey Ash
>Lance: That’s all for my challenge. It’s all up to you now.

SAY IT WITH ME

ALOLA
KANTO
JOHTO
UNOVA
HOENN
SINNOH
GALAR
CHAMPION ASH

>lost to Leon already
Lance.

Alain lost because the story needed him to lose just like how Diantha is going to lose. Lance lost because he sucks

He already used it, it wasn't effective.

Alain, but Lances is the worse one
Alain isnt even a champion, he is some rando

He actually said something along the lines of “It’s your turn now”.

>Alain lost because the story needed him to lose
While this is true, you shouldn't pretend Alain doesn't suck as well.

Soon

>Beat some dude with a disobedient Charizard in the indigo league and is still on a high from that win
>A few months later he's still on a high from his win when he sees that the same guy he beat is now in the world's top 8, Kalos finalist, Alolan Champion, mastered a plethora of gimmicks and has a brand new fully evolved team of Champion level mons

How does Ritchie feel about this?

Was the episode good?
How was the animation?

The animation was pretty good. I have no idea why people on serebii are going on about "terrible animation" everything looked fine

lol no, she already lost her chance for a cameo

the animation was bad, but the episode was alright

>Beat some dude with a disobedient Charizard in the indigo league and is still on a high from that win
Ritchie wasn’t “high from that win” he barely even felt like he won
>A few months later
The fuck?

>Dodges your Hyper beam

Literally outsourced to fucking China.

Battle writing was surprisingly good
Animation was outsourced trash; barely any character movement with mons just standing still after using moves
Next week's battle looks way better in the animation department

Reminder that you can't hyper beam all.your problems away.

I hope the semis are 4v4. If I were to set up the teams:
>Leon
MCY, Aegislash, Mr. Rime, Dragapult
>Diantha
M-Gardevoir, Tyrantrum, Goodra, Blaziken (merch, and good replacement for Hawlucha)
>Cynthia
M-Garchomp, Kommo-o, Roserade, Spiritomb
>Ash
M-Lucario, Dragonite, Sirfetch'd, Infernape

The animation was perfectly good. I don't know why you guys think it was done poorly. No pokemon looked off model and the attacks were well animated

I love a woman who can just kill me.

I think they will be 6 on 6. Ash getting two 6 on 6's this series is reasonable.

The referee seemed to imply only the first rounds were 3 on 3 in the previous ep

Yeah it's bad. It's always when there are several animation directors credited in a single episode that there's a problem.

Especially when there's random Koreans or Chinese in there.

The animation looked fine though outsourced or not

Both Cynthia battles will have kino animation
Only the best for the strongest goddess

not enough time for both semis matches to be 6v6

>The fuck?
Ash is still 11

Iris is going to win and then the eventual battle between Iris and Ash is going to sound like subtext.

The effect animation was ok, as always. The character movement, which is most important to a battle's animation and flow, was bad. Look at Gyarados' Dragon Pulse, Hydriegon's Flash Cannon, Gardevoir's Moonblast. They fire off the move and become a png. The choreography was also subpar as a result of this. The only part that looked somewhat decent was the touched up ME stock animation from XY.

Why not? All you need is 2 parts for both unless the writers rush Leon/Diantha into a single ep

LANCESISTERS…WHAT HAPPENED…HE WAS OUR FLYING TYPE MASTER…

>Lance always jobs
>Is fucking evil in Pokemon Special
Why do they hate Lance so much?
