Nowhere. Besides, its Ultra Guardian symbol indicates it being male.Just curious, where was it confirmed that Popplio is female?

Oh. I must've misremembered.Popplio has a bow, which indicates it as female. The males just have the symbols and nothing else.
Agreed. We're basically in the final stretch of Sun and Moon and the writer are really picking this time to make some terrible choices. First they decide for Rowlette to never evolve via a terrible gag with it eating an everstone and now they give Eevee, the pokemon obviously here for advertisement of Let's Go to Lana, a character who gets barely any focus. So at this point, they've now wasted 2 advertisement pokemon on her. Had Eevee gone to Ash, not only would it have better served the advertisement role since it would be bound to get plenty of screentime, it would be able to display its Let's Go Eevee original moves. Plus, should Eevee get an evolution in Gen 8, it could have gone with Ash to the next region for that express purpose of advertising the next Eeveelution. With Lana, there's no way in Hell it's even gonna get to do much other than just exist since Lana really doesn't do much of anything important and hasn't in all of Sun and Moon. So now we not only have a wasted Pokemon, but Ash still has 2 slots in his team that don't seem to be getting filled any time soon and we're pretty late in the game. Should they fill them both, it's gonna end up being a rush job where his last 2 pokemon barely have time to get focus. Oh Sun and Moon. I expect nothing and still end up disappointed.Complete garbage Lana got it over Ash, who desperately needs a fifth
They ruined it's cute look too with that shitty haircut
Ditto. Now Ash needs to catch at least two Pokemon to his party in order to enter the Alola Pokemon League., the pokemon o

Maybe just one, if Poipole ends up returning.Ditto. Now Ash needs to catch at least two Pokemon to his party in order to enter the Alola Pokemon League.
Poipole would for sure return, it's a matter of time.Maybe just one, if Poipole ends up returning.
At this point, we're basically looking at Snorunt/Gible levels of rushed focus.They don't even have time to develop one more Pokemon for Ash at this point, let alone two. Anything he catches at this point will be really underdeveloped.

And at least at those points, Satoshi only had one empty slot on his team.
I honestly have no idea where this series is going, and not in a good way. Look at this... Satoshi is due to face his final trials and he still has two open slots on his team (as well as a Pokemon that isn't going to evolve), Kaki only has two Pokemon (or three, if Lizardon is counted) yet seemingly wants to enter the Alola League too, the Alola League is likely still just Kakui's pipe dream, we only just got a rival show up. both Sun and Moon game plots have ran their course, the Aether Foundation are now good guys and Team Skull are, as far as we know, just a group of jerks who hang around together with no real plan.
At this rate, I can absolutely see Satoshi beating the fourth trial and Kukui going "Well done Satoshi-chan, you beat all the grand trials. Unfortunately, I haven't actually set up the league yet but once I have I'll be in touch. Here's your diploma from the Pokemon School and a plane ticket back to Kanto. Bye!" before heading indoors and finally consummating his marriage.
Seriously, this episode just furthers the idea that the writers are making this up as they go with no real plan in mind. It's like every other series now is working this way, with a completely different set of writers on each.
She attacked them, but because she wasn't with Lana, her attacks didn't do anything, as demonstrated when Ash and Pikachu then came in and wiped them outI don't like how passive Ashimari was in the episode. She should have been able to defeat Persian, instead of running away. She also did nothing against Skull gang till others came.
get exited when the talk about kyogre. they missed the chance to evolve poppli again.This episode was way better than the last, loved that Lana caught Eevee in a Dive Ball rather than a normal Poke Ball
Was great to see Lana's father reappear along with her mother and sisters
so, what pokemon would lillie and mallow reciebe? Tsareena is just evolved, but vulpix? besides, what about charjabug? i really thought that ash was going to get that eevee, besdies, i think that eevee is not wild, he had a trainer.Well, I guess that Lana was the one who got to keep Eevee after all.
Now, while I will admit that I am a little bit disappointed that Ash was denied an Eevee yet again, as well as another Pokémon in general, after being left with only three permanent Alolan Pokémon for so very long, I guess that it was a nice idea to give Lana a second Pokémon as well. That just leaves both Mallow and Lillie left to be given another Pokémon.
i thought that too. and the argument would be that they must return it to kanto, so they can connect to the new game.I really wanted ash to finally have these types of pokemon but still happy for lovely Lana to catch it
but lana said aquajet, and popplio did Surf, which can only be learned by TM.@BigDocFan
Yeah, better than last one, which is kind of boring. Finally, we get to see Lana's father in person and even surprisingly saw the Eevee way before headed to Melemele Island with the additional of her lovely sea pup had learns Surf, which is a great thing.
Overall rating of this episode, I give it a B+
but what about the TM? and why they dont evolve it?Seems like I was right about my prediction of Popplio learning Surf.
It's always a pleasure to see variant Poké Balls in the anime.
i dont think eevee evolved, i think it will become ash new partner.Now that Lana caught an Eevee, that means Lana will evolve Eevee into a Vaporeon. And it was nice seeing Lana's father in-person in this episode instead of the flashback like he did in the first episode of the Necrozma arc.
It was nice to finally see Lana's father and another type of Poke Ball we haven't seen before. However, I honestly left this episode disappointed. While I absolutely adore Lana and love it whenever she gets development, I honestly think the Eevee should've gone to Ash instead of her. It fits him better personality-wise and type-wise it's the most fitting for him out of all the members of the group (since nobody in the group specializes in Normal types). I'm one of the 10 Pokemon fans in existence who doesn't like Eevee very much and all of the attention it's been getting these past two gens, but I still think it deserved something a little better, especially in the development department. Ash would also be the one who'd likely get the most creative with the starter Eevee's special moves and type variation. For Lana, in all honestly I wish her second Pokemon could've been water type. It's extremely disappointing to see the writers reject so many great Alolan water types (including Dewpider/Araquanid, her signature Pokemon) in favor of an annoyingly hyperactive Eevee that can't evolve... Finally, I just felt that the Popplio/Eevee friendship development was way too rushed. It would've been better if it played out over multiple episodes like Litten's arc did and the development of its' relationship with Ash.
Looking forward to next week at least and the two-parter! Guzzlord and Zeraora are here!
