What would I give for Bea to somehow be in this episode, looking for help training a shy and reserved colony of Falinks…
 
FINALLY SOME GALAR MON LET'S GOOOOO

But c'mon, Pikachu again? This ''Captain of a Fighting type group'' seems like such a Sirfetch'd thing. But they are just gonna shove Pikachu in everything, won't they?

Yeah or a Lucario thing. Or give it to Gohs Hitmonchan (Has it even appeared after the Fighting Dojo episode)?
 
The writers' record of doing new things with Pikachu continues: evolving
from a Pichu
, being harassed to evolve, being framed, being impersonated (kinda), running away from Ash and now being a military leader (and to think that all of those things got their own episode...Some would argue it has more focus than Ash lol).

It surprises me that the opening actually covers a very specific event from 6 months later, they really planned it in advance.
