    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    It was in an interview around the time that the Masters 8 started. Don’t remember which thread it was brought up in though.

    Wouldn’t even be the first time he did that either. He recalled Corphish when Slugma put it to sleep with Yawn against Flannery and it ended up being the one who won him the battle in the end.

    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    I remember the complaints alongside the dismissive sentiment from the other side about how losers typically leave Leagues after they lose and that if they stayed they’d have no purpose and would just be taking up screentime.

    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    But again, this isn’t the games nor should an anime battle be treated as such by the fandom. The anime takes far too many liberties when it comes to battle to the point that it’s practically apples and oranges. For example, the way Ash beat Gastrodon isn’t something that could ever happen in the...

    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    How is it a guaranteed loss? Because that’s exactly what did happen in the episode. You can’t really argue on a what if of a scenario that flat out played out in the very episode. While a change in tactics at least has the possibility of changing the course of how a situation plays out, changing...

    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    I’m saying that the move of Dream Eater functions exactly the same way that it did when Ash faced Tobias. The only difference is that Dark Void was used instead of Hypnosis to the same effect. And there’s a difference between. Cantina’s battle and and this as well as Sceptile’s situation. In...

    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    Except in this case it worked exactly the same way that it did with Tobias. The only difference was that it replaced Dark Void with Hypnosis. And regardless of what Ash’s intentions may have been by theory, that doesn’t change that he made the unwise move of leaving his Dragonite to repeatedly...

    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    Spiritomb took a Draco Meteor as the opening move which would have caused some damage if not much. And you can’t really claim that Dragonite can tank the Dream Eaters considering that it went down after 2-3 of them. And as I stated before, it’s better to have recalled Dragonite to give it a...

    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    Thing is, Spiritomb as a threat is a specific strategy that exists for it to essentially pull off the same type of 1-2 punch that Tobias’ Darkrai used back in the Sinnoh League. It renders the opponent asleep and allows for the offender to then continuously drain the defenseless Pokémon’s energy...

    Review JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

    I’ve got to disagree there. While Dragonite may have still been asleep when Ash sent it out again, there would have been at least an opportunity for it to wake up against another opponent and wouldn’t leave it as a sitting duck while Spiritomb basically negates any actual damage that had been...
