Preview HZ032: Laplace's Memories Of Its Companions

[Karakuri18]

The show doesn't do breaks so, I guess something like Battle Frontier or Orange Island type arc to fill time?

I don't see anyone participating in Battle Frontier.
As for Orange Islands, it seems to me that the continuity between HZ and Ashverse should be confirmed first (another region may be used very well).

Besides, traveling to ALL regions as arcs is going to still take a while.

Well, it seems like they're spending an average of 10-ish episodes in each region, so that's like, 90 episodes or so?

There's still Alola, Hisui, Sinnoh, if they even want to do all of them.

Don't forget Johto, Hoenn, and Kalos! (I'd say Kanto too, but that region has gotten waaaay too much focus lately, plus the series already kind of started there (I don't care if that's where Liko's friend with the Oshawott and her school is, the Kanto region could do without some focus for once.

We were told they'd visit all the regions. And like I said, there's more they can do besides getting the Six Heroes and dealing with the Explorers.

That's what we've all been led to believe. I seem to recall them saying at the beginning of the series it'd be a world tour or something like that, and that they'd be visiting all the regions of the Pokemon world.

They never explicitly stated they would visit every reigon, they just said it was a world thing.

Really? I thought I read a promotional ad for the series that said they'd be travelling to all the regions or something. Anyway, even if they didn't explicitly state it outright, by saying they'd travel the world it's heavily implied they meant all the regions.

The exact wording was "In April 2023, the curtain rises for new dreams and adventures set across the entire Pokémon world!"

So I guess? Seems to imply an all- region thing.

 

[Poke Trey]

So, we will get to the other places like Johto cause of Entei, Hoenn, Unova.

Which doesn't mean much.

I mean... we already got Kanto, Galar and Paldea. Johto is likely coming, due to Entei (But even then its not a guarantee)

I'd bet the ranch that this is going to be an all regions series.

Me too, for now we just wait for more titles and hope that the other regions will be covered.

So its actually a 2-parter by the looks of things.

Could be a 3-part one.... if they're hiding it. But yeah, 2 is my safe bet.

Yep.

If they say that the episodes of Pokemon Horizons will be boring for tomorrow it will be next but in December there will be an two episode Lapras will appear as the Six Pokemon Heroes of Lucius that we are lucky and few are missing. When we will be notified of the news in a year will appear two legendary pokemon of Lucius is missing, Rayquaza returns, defeats the Explorers, Terapagos in terastal form and then Pokemon Horizons is over.

Preview since no one else has posted it

Lapras looking mad.... quite rare to see from them.

 

[Kurolegacy]

Guess the hero Pokémon being agro for some reason is just gonna be a pattern with this. Of course I’m less than excited at it looking like this is gonna end up resolved by having the other heroes comes out again as that threatens to become repetitive.

 

[SammyW27]

Damn...that Lapras has been through a lot!

Looks like someone remembered them being hunted to near extinction...

Though it should be fun seeing Old Man Ludlow up to bat!

I dunno I think it would be weirder if they just... didn't interact at all.
It's probably going to be the same thing as last time, the heroes come out and try to stop them but it doesn't work, so they just help the protags do whatever their plan is.
It's gonna be real crowded by like, the time they are dealing with the 5th hero though.

Nothing really preventing them from interacting at other points besides when it’s time to get another. Them repeating this every time but with a growing number makes the whole thing fe superficial and formulaic as it seems like they only follow Liko because she has the other heroes rather than because she’s truly gained their trust. It also kills any actual stakes because at that point only Liko can claim a hero because she’s the only one with Terapagos and the other heroes thus killing any tension that the Explorers could have as competition in gathering the heroes.
