Plot-wise I felt like this episode was a bit too derivative of that only early XY episode, but the big thing that stood out to me is how respectful Goh was of Flabébé's wishes, just because of how far a cry it was from how he treated Scorbunny pre-Raboot. It really feels like he's grown in that sense, even if the episode itself didn't really touch on it.

And Grookey being sad to see Floette go was also a nice touch, if only since it's the first time we really see it caring about someone besides itself.
 
When I looked at the Title I honestly thought this was the Darkrai-Cresselia 2-Parter.

Is this the Flabebe episode?

That's a unusually eerie title for an episode like this.

Yeah, even taking the ending into account, it definitely doesn't fit the episode's tone. I guess "Flabébé's White Flower" sounded too mundane but surely they could have come up with a better alternative.
