Once again they are trying to use so many ideas, some having the potential for being the plot of a full episode, in a single one. At the end they never manage to showcase them properly, there is not enough time to give all the needed focus. What a shame that the writers keep on the...

This episode will be hard for me to tolerate. Since it, most probably, will be an underwhelming portrayal of Kingdra. I just hope that they won't let Gou keep it. Uonoragon making an appearance doesn't make it any better, to be honest. Neither makes any sense for it to have development in an...

Lucario and Aceburn had nothing. The writers tried to establish a dynamic, ended up being a cliche/overused one. Then, they proceeded to trash it. I don't have any faith on the writers coming up with an interesting combi. It seems that the Dragon-type Dominance is coming back.

It really says something when the call-backs are what generate more hype than anything else. And the staff are aware of it, using them on purpose. Look at this thread, we went from talking about the Trial to what will Genji add to the plot. They could add development but seemingly doesn't care...

While having continuity-nods is fine. Overdoing it, isn't. They should add call-backs only when really needed. XY had almost none and it didn't affect it at all. Journeys has started to become so reliant on them that it's starting to lose its own essence. Or the plan was for it to be Pokemon...

Why is there a need to reference past series? XY was fine being on its own and proved that nostalgia is not that important. I wouldn't blame the writers, or Satoshi, for forgetting about Daigo. His AG debut episode was so irrelevant/unremarkable, it even can pass as a filler. It could even said...

I think that they lowered the stakes. The past mission sounded more challenging.

Dueling Heroes was my favourite episode featuring Kingdra. Not only it was its debut, it also had some tricks. Satoshi and Waninoko won by waiting for the right moment to strike, or rather bite. The other reason was because of its trainer, Tsurio..... Setting up a duel between Matsumoto Rica...

As I said, wanted it to be a regular in Past Series. Not in Journeys. Mostly because all Pokemon are shafted or vanish now. Currently, it is good as a Pokemon of the Day. But I don't want Gou keeping it. Catching for the mission and then release is the ideal approach.

In all cases, it'd just be a Pokemon of the Day. Kingdra deserved to be a regular/recurrent.

Seems like this one it is indeed a legit episode. There says: 'This Winter too, an Adventure with Pokemon' 'Gou's Trial Mission! Get a Kingdra!' 'In order to become an official Project Mew Member, a new mission that is challenging. Will he get it?' 'Seemingly deeper under the sea. It is hard...
