Ah, that’s nice - not nearly enough but I do like to see how the Pokémon swim - wish we had something similar for Greninnja - underwater battles are great!

We've seen a shot of Inteleon underwater using Snipe Shot on Poke Ball(s) so hopefully we'll get a battle instead of just Inteleon firing the Poke Ball

We are definitely getting a battle

 

[Eitarou]

Maybe if we're lucky, the writers will remember it has U-turn, or moves other than Snipe Shot.

It's literally using a move that's clearly not Snipe Shot in that image above.

I agree about U-Turn tho

 

[BigDocFan]

Any ideas what move it is using?

It looks like a Water type punching move but there isn't one

Most seem to agree that it's probably Liquidation

A move it did not have before now and as such is not part of Inteleon's ignored moves list.

Thing is, other than Snipe Shot, the only other moves it knows up til this point are U-Turn and Pound.

The problem with U-Turn is that it requires it to return to it's Pokeball immediately right after and who tf in their right mind would want to use Pound?

So yeah I can at least understand why those moves would be ignored

 

[JinksChow]

who tf would want to use Pound?

Ash when facing a rock-type gym and fighting-type gym in Hoenn

Edit: Oh no. Looking deeper, I only just realized that Ash also commanded the use of Pound in the fire-type gym and normal-type gym in Hoenn. So that's half the gyms in Hoenn where Ash thought Pound was a good move to use.

Ooo, Drake's reappearing, we haven't seen him since AG101

 

[VetProf]

Oh hey, Drake. Another unexpected E4 cameo, and this time it's a returning one.

This return will be nostalgic and to me. I used to watch the episode Drake first appeared in from DVD many times as a kid.

 

[Lightning Flame Blast]

Hoh boy, Ash better not be feeling too confident when meeting Drake. We all know how that ended last time.

 

[SammyW27]

Hey, where's the preview????

Hey, where's the preview????

This isn't the next episode. This'll air after the Glaceon episode.

OOPS! Wrong thread! Sorry everyone, sorry!

 

[Rainbow-Rain]

DRAKE?????!!! That literally came out of nowhere

I just knew they were hiding something in this episode lol There was just too little information on this episode

Good to know Inteleon isn't the only draw to this episode for me anymore.

InB4 Drake is in the Masters 8

 

[Reborn Talonflame]

Hopefully this is Goh’s last trial. I know it doesn’t seem like many to qualify, but this in all seems the same to the previous episodes, and it’s starting to stagnate. They kind of need to up the intensity a bit, and sure, Drake does that (Coolest E4 Member, don’t at me), but we really don’t know that much about the Project yet, despite knowing about it for more than half a year…So, I really hope this is the last trial, just to move things along.
In truth, I’m actually looking forward to Project Mew more than the PWC, with the way the latter format has disappointed me so much. And that’s mainly cause the characters here in Project Mew seem a lot more interesting and there’s somewhat of a developing story, at least with branching themes of adventure.
