This was SO GOOD. The scenery was animated very beautifully!

When Zinnia kept talking when May fell wtf i mean is she still okay or what :D

I hope that Legends Arceus will do well so that we can get "Legends Rayquaza" or "Legends Jirachi"

Fuuuuuuuck this was such a great episode. I didn't think it was possible to top the B/W episode, but this gave me chills while I was watching it.

ORAS had some of the best music in the entire series, so hearing that in the background the whole time was bliss. This absolutely did the Delta Episode and how epic it was justice. Was kind of hoping to see the Deoxys battle, but we kinda already got that in Pokemon Generations, so I am happy with the epic visual of Mega Salamence vs. Mega Rayquaza.

Also Zinnia is best girl.

That was awesome. Love how they gave May a big spotlight as well. They tend to only show glimpses of the protagonists but here we got a full blown battle and zoom ins on her face.

The Ice Punch of the Mega Swampert was incredibly strong! This Aggron was also very strong.

Now this one was the best episode for now.

Protagonist didnt had Mike Wazowski treatment, and would be a crime doing that to May.

Rayquaza is such sassy dragon, to look a Zinnia and "Nah, not feeling it"

Nice Pikachus.

Well that was epic and the style was completely different than the other episodes that added more intensity. I also liked how the tone changed over time like it started out little funny with May falling down as Zinnia begins to tell story then to such serious end. Also feels good to recognised those soundtracks too! Wished every other previous episodes were this level of uniqueness.

That was fucking awesome and I love the new versions of Groudon/Kyogre's theme and Zinnia's theme as well.

We need more Zinnia.

That was one heck of an episode. Definitely the best episode yet! The animation was so good and it looked clean as hell.

The primal Groudon Vs Kyougre was amazing!

This has to be my favourite episode so far ORAS is my bias and I also loved the ruby and sapphire manga.

It was so nice to see Sapphire/May get a spotlight <3

After the very mediocre last episode, this episode was nuts. This is the episode with the best production quality so far. The pacing was a bit too slow in the middle, considering this was around 10 mins, if they tightened it up a bit, they could have shown her going to the space and beautiful use of the OSTs, Zinnia's theme is epic.

The best episode so far. While its action choreography is not as good as Lunala VS Necrozma, it gave me the feeling of witnessing a legend, which is good enough. Add on the OSTs, which were Zinnia's and Rayquaza's themes, and this episode was a treat for Hoenn fans.

All this series did, as a whole, but especially this episode, made me want to finally go back and properly beat Pokemon Alpha Sapphire. I never did get to relish in a Mega Pidgeot, nor check out the Delta Episode.

This was the most quintessential pokemon protagonist moment ever.

"My family prepared thousands of years for this... but you, random 10 year old, must be the one."

Really glad we got to see that through Zinnia's eyes.
