Hell yeah that was a great episode! Loving the Kamon focus we've been getting recently. I genuinely expected him to evolve at the end, but it's even better that he didn't! I love it when Journeys can subvert my expectations (in a good way) like this, makes me more optimistic for its future. Detect is an interesting move, and I guess it replaced focus energy? Who would've thought that was the first fighting move he would've learnt?
There's just a lot of things I liking about Ash and Farfetchd's dynamic. Them growing closer, their shared goal of beating Rinto, Ash being actively involved with its training, etc. It's so good to see Farfetch'd actually get its own arc, even if it's long overdue. The actual episode was structured pretty well with the 3 trials and I was pretty entertained throughout the whole thing. Ash recovering Farfetchd's leek, sword fighting Wikstrom and Farfetch'd taking damage to protect Ash were some of my highlights here. I'm also happy with how Goh was handled, as although they both participated, Ash was still the focus here.
I could say more about it, but honestly you guys explained it better than I could. The moment I saw this episode in those previews I was hyped, and I'm glad it didn't disappoint. I'll give it a 9/10, the king delivers again.
