Felt like a Tommy and John episode than an Allister episode but at least we got to see him. Last episode is unsurprisingly about Leon, most likely centered on (personally) inviting John and Tommy to his match.

Wanted to add that this is the English voice actor of Leon:

Cute episode, though I am kinda disappointed they ended up sidelining Allister in favor of the two kids. Was really looking forward to seeing him in the spotlight. Especially considering the other episodes had a lot of themes about overcoming your insecurities/anxiety, and Allister would have perfectly fit into that theme.

Oh well, at least we still got to see him be cute. Taxi guy getting jumpscared twice was pretty funny lol

I saw someone say there was speculation that the one kid died but was a donor for the other. So he ended up being a ghost for this whole episode.
Not sure how likely that is, but it'd be an interesting (if not sad) twist if true.

When Tommy says to Jonh "When you get out of here I'll be there to back you up like before" Jonh face was kinda strange, like if he knew he won't get out of the hospital. Just a personal speculation tho.

This seemed final and had no endcap preview. How do we know there's one more after this?

Also Tommy has only ever interacted with The ghost type gym leader and John. A lampent was floating outside the hospital (check his entry). And in the original Japanese version the driver said "What's taking HIM so long" only refering to Alliston. And even the ghost Pokémon were weird around him.

So yeah Tommy's dead.

Sonia has quite the circle of friends! First she goes to a café with Nessa, then she chats with Leon on the phone :D

Lmao Allister and his Ghost Pokémon are fun to hang out with. I loved how he kept scaring the Taxi driver.

Talking about the Taxi driver, I am glad he has played a huge role in almost every episode so far.

I hope Tommy can attend a Pokémon battle in person.

Sonia does have a lot of famous friends. Nessa, Leon...
I mean, well, she is Leon's childhood friend so not that surprising.

Man, I've always loved Allister so seeing some little titbits into him is so great. I'm surprised how shy he actually is - but it's also wonderful watching him with this plot!
