Ash and his friends ditching school for a concert? Now this is the kind of school anime I can get into. :p

Lol, but seriously, this sounds like it'll be interesting. I'm mainly interested in the story about the Diglett that admires the Dugtrio. That sounds like it'll be cute. :D
 
Considering the fact Alolan Dugtrio has been compared to several music groups, I think it's hilarious that they've given it a DJ for a trainer. Dugtrio has one of my favorite Alola forms (sure, it's kind of lazy, but it's just so hilarious and makes me happy) so I'm looking forward to this one!
 
Not only is this my favourite pokemon this gen, but this sounds like an awesome premise for an episode! I hope we get to actually hear some music!!

I like that Ash likes his wig. Also, I like that Hoshi is here, but I wonder why she's in this episode.

I thought Hoshi would be a COFD, but it turns out she will appear in this Dugtrio episode. I wonder if Lana's twin young sisters appear here too?

Here are two new summaries of the episode, which Dephender translated.

Ash and the others have come to a concert with an Alolan Dugtrio. The amazing performance is very well received, but an incident occurs right afterwards! Incredibly enough, there's a risk of a split-up due to the Alolan Dugtrio have a disagreement over who gets the center spot?!

Ash and the others have gone to a music concert. They're there to see a performance by the unit "Dugleo", which consists of an Alolan Dugtrio and its Trainer DJ Leo. After the concert, Ash and the others ended up getting to know DJ Leo, and then proceeded to meet a Diglett that admires the Alolan Dugtrio. But the Alolan Dugtrio start fighting, which puts the unit at a risk of splitting up. And then Team Rocket showed up and took the Alolan Dugtrio with them!

Well, it looks like Lana and Lillie are the only Ash's classmates who won't appear in this episode at all. Plus, we'll get to see the devolution!
