| Almost finished! It is hard to believe we are almost there, but I can not wait to see how this ends. Especially because Shigeru will be involved. |

| One last week before our protag goes... I know for sure next week's episode will be rough. And as for this episode. Really good. I like how both Latias and Latios are able to communicate with Ash through his Aura, and because of it, that Aura Sphere gave that ripoff of a Hunter J a good beating. (The dude even got outplayed. How naive to think that you can go against the world champion without expecting a random surprise attack) Also, this:    |

| Oh sheeeet! that was Original "Latias" Girl Version at the end on the swings |
 |
At the end, I saw Bianca/Kanon from the 2002 movie. Tell me if I am wrong. |

| ASH IS ONE CRAZY MOFO DOING A BACKFLIP MID AIR |
| Great episode. So Pokemon Hunters still exist huh. Latios and Latias are back home!! The place is the one in the movie. Next friday will be the final episode with Satoshi and Pikachu as the MC. |
| Oppai check! 111 cm: Hancock 110 cm: Zoro 100 cm: Robin |
| Seeing the movie 5 references was awesome! Although Ash didn't caught Latios or Latias, and didn't meet Bianca... This whole series kinda felt like filler so far, but next episode is the true last one, so I really hope it will be truly great. |
| Kinda wish he caught either Latios or Latias, but I think Latios reaction showed Ash he has much more to do to become a "Pokemon Master" Next week...idk if I am ready |

| steelix out here with base 25 speed. Is keeping track with a latias???? bruhhh Also, the scene with Latios smacking ashes hand away was too good. 😂 |

| Thank god he didn't catch Latios or Latias, it would have ruined everything. Cool episode, hyped for the finale! |
| That ending caught me offguard. Wasn't expecting them to show the place from Latios and Latias movie. Just one more episode to go. |
 |
| this ep was mediocre (no hate,. just felt that way) thou it had its own share of wholesome the callback for movie 5 (one of my favourites) was great next one's the last hopefully next one would be the real deal peace ☮️🕊️ |
 |
| Great Latios/Latias episode where they stopped the Pokemon hunter, and nice throwback at the older movie in the end! Only one episode left... I can't |
 |
| Mmmm I've enjoying these chapters but to be honest it has been underwhelming for a farewell to ash after so many years. The last chapter looks promising for a farewell but it looks like a new beginning. I think the anime wants to try new waters with a new protagonist so if it doesn't work they can bring back ash anytime. I guess that's why they didn't go all out in the "last arc" for ash. |
| I'm not ready to say goodbye to this, and the way the episodes so far have been mostly comfy and/or nostalgic times giving no signs of a farewell will kinda make it sting harder when it suddenly does. Been watching this journey since I was 3 years old, it's like a saga of my life is closing lol Okay ep overall, a revamp of the plot of the fifth movie pretty much. |
 |
| I felt like Ash and company were idle there for awhile, they could've intervened sooner XD |
| Welp that was oddly underwhelming. It was all a plot device for so little in the end, nothing so far justified this show as [what turned out to be] a simple extension of Journeys and not a show on its own but oh well... Only novelty is that the 2002 movie is now canon and we could see for a moment the Latias we know lol Let's see how Ash and Pikachu's story wraps up. Maybe we'll see Ho-Oh? |
THANKS SENPIEX  |
SabreDrago said: Same, they didnt even animate a new OP really... at least we got a remix of the original songThis show has been quite underwhelming considering its Ash's final show as the MC. Pretty disappointed ngl. But yeah this episode was quite meh, bad guy gets defeated, promises to never do it again, all in all this episode had no substance. Then we only had a short scene of Team Rocket, my bet is they gonna reunite next episode... All in all meh, they could have done so much better |
| Trying to watch all available anime series so you won't have to anymore, the list of anime I can recommend is still in progress, tho |
| If there were still doubts about the canonicity of the movies, now more than ever it should be clear to some people. They managed to save Latios and Latias from the hunter and by the way we got to see Swellow in action again. Next Friday, the end of an era. I'm not ready to say goodbye to my boy yet... |
 |
| Whole episode was pretty good, but man I love that the ending showed us that Movie 5 is canon. I got such a big grin on my face seeing Bianca again. That being said.... I'm not ready for next week. Pokemon has and continues to be biggest enjoyment in my life, and even my earliest memories involve Pokemon. It has literally been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I loved watching the anime on my VHS tapes, when they were on TV, etc, so knowing that Ash's journey is going to be done is a pill hard to swallow. Will he ever return in the future? Yeah, I'm sure he will, he's still likely going to be adventuring in the background as the new series is taking place. They may give him another series later, or do specials showcasing him again. Regardless of what happens later, next week is it. I grew up with Ash and his Pokemon adventures, so this will be hard. |
| Kinda disappointed Latias didn't propose to Ash but on the other hand, Movie 5 is canon, and that more than cancels out the disappointing stuff. Next ep's title has rainbow in it so Ho-oh's probably gonna make an appearance, I presume. |
 |
| It's still something that has been done multiple times before but somehow it is nearly the strongest episode of the series so far. Really well-animated too. One more episode and we're done. |
| wow, second and last episode about Latios!!! Returns Home, the same city that the film! kekeke The next one will be the last episode and Ash will return at home!!! ;_; |
| That person really strong :) |

| Another fantastic episode. I loved the conclusion to the Latias/Latios storyline as Ash finally had a really tough battle against a dastardly Pokemon hunter. Seeing the Pokemon Heroes cameo at the end was a cool reference too. Only one episode left!!! I don't know how I am going to be able to handle the end so soon. |
 |
| Hands down best episode. It was extremely entertaining. I genuinely thought Latias was going to stay with Ash. They had build a strong connection too. The Hunter claims he won't do it again, but we all know that's a lie. AND HELLO THERE BIANCA. I SEE U. |
 |
| continuing with last episode cliffhanger, Latias showing Ash what Latios is going through, and the attack that happened in that factory they all went ahead on top of Steelix to follow Latias Latias shared with Ash what she has been watching from him out of nowhere, she showed them that Latios got attacked by the Hydreigon trainer, a pokemon hunter... Latias was really worried and couldn't see where he was since it's getting dark, they decided to stop and wait for Latios to contact her again as expected, Team Rocket is back, all 3 arrived at the headquarters at the same time lmao remembering that Latias was injured when Ash found her, seems like Latios gave her a chance to escape that factory Latias enjoying some food, that's too cute we see Latios recovering in the water, and then sending another vision to Latias hahaha Misty waking up, also too cute while the team was moving to the cave where Latios is, the hunter noticed her and probably instantly knew that she was gonna find Latios ... guess he is not worried at all about the 3 trainers ... then again, if he is strong enough to beat 2 legendaries, he probably is confident they met Latios, but he thought that they were chasing Latias, so he went on the attack, just to be stopped by Pikachu's iron tail while they were trying to explain to Latios, the hunter attacked them from behind (now the usual should happen, Ash faces the hunter and Latios finally understands) Hydreigon used 2 of its heads to bite Latios and Latias Latios managed to escape, but went back when the trainer threaten Latias... as expected, Ash decided to jump on top of the enemy, giving time for Latios to headbutt them, and Latias fell to the ground the other trainer threw Ash down, but he managed to do a flip and land perfectly LOL the trainer used his beam, and Latias blocked it, turning into stone(?) (lol is this mewtwo movie?) after a couple dodges, Latios got hit by dragon pulse and fell down, so it's up to Ash to stop the inevitable it looked like they would manage, but the hunter had multiple exits available (wtf is Misty even doing? lol) Latios tried to follow, but 1st he needed to get some healing... he denied at first but ended up accepting, after he used his power on Ash's head wow, just a bit of healing and Latios is going full speed, Ash can't even keep his eyes open lmao Latios started to feel pain from the wind touching his wound, but Ash noticed it and covered Swellow was doing it's best to distract the guy... but as soon as Latios appeared, he left and waited for them to follow Steelix can't follow anymore since they are on the water Swellow got hit by the beam, so he is out of the fight now Brock noticed the hunter's intentions and tried to break the rocks, but the hunter turned steelix into a statue (dude wtf is this...) Brock told Ash to destroy the item... and Latios trusts Ash's plan Latios managed to dodge the dragon pulse, and then hit the Hydeigon from below...and with no time to react, Pikachu destroyed the arm item, and with that, the statue pokemons are back to normal after falling to the river, the hunter is back up and it's totally mad, and easily put Latios down Latios got back up, and with Ash has his temporary partner, the fight continued LAtios used psychokinesis, and the hunter was sure that psychic attacks wouldn't defeat it, but he didn't expect what came after that, Latios appeared over them and used a big rasengan to finish them LOL did that idiot just start running to them to punch them? does he not have any other pokemon? well... Jenny is here, so he got caught, cya nerd Ash tried to pet the Latios but he denied it (i thought he would be more friendly now lol) anyway, the 2 left, promissing to fight with Ash someday (rip, i guess it's still not time for Ash to have a legendary) since the Lati went back home, Ash decided it's time to do the same WAIT, the 2 Lati went to visit a place with their statues, and there... there's a girl who is strangly familiar, the one who turns into Latias in the movie next episode, Ash is back home... the ending is already here, sadness |
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |
| this episode felt like i was watching Digimon, the villain also had digimon villain vibes. really enjoyed it. i think this might be the best episode so far. animation was great and fight scenes were great too. i'm impressed |
| So there was 2 Latias in the end we see Bianca and other Bianca on the swing which I assume it’s the Latias in the movie that Ash knows but idk movie timeline is weird with the anime |
 |
| Hold on, what was up with that ending? Those can't be the same Latios and Latias from the movie because they didn't recognize Ash at all. But maybe they're saying the events of the movie didn't happen and are using this to at least confirm that the setting is canon? Or maybe the movie is canon and they just have more Latios/Latias than just the ones in the movie? I imagine they included this as a fun little reference, but all they've done is made things even more confusing. |
 |
This part here was like: ''Obey my master's orders or I will kick your ass like I once did in Sinnoh'' Who would have thought that this film would become canonical... I don't think anyone expected that.  |
