It seems like Goh still isn’t deterred from trying again since he says “Guess I gotta give up for today.”

Seems like it’s more development building towards Pyro Ball given how Ember is it lighting a rock on fire with its kick and now it’s gained a powerful flaming kick. Now it’s just a matter of bringing both together.Okay, this was a pretty cool and fun episode. I enjoyed seeing Ash, Goh, and Team Rocket team up to take on Zapdos. I also liked that Raboot finally learned a new move, though I personally would have preferred if he learned something that wasn't another Fire-type move. Zen Headbutt would have been cool. Oh well, the anime does seem to prefer flashiness over coverage anyway.
We have been bamboozled.
I would have laughed so hard if Gou had managed to get a Thunder with a regular, 100 yen Monster Ball
To be fair, this was before the anime suddenly remembered that other Poké Ball versions existed. Everyone had everything in normal Poké Balls back then. I think Ash's Totodile's Lure Ball was the only variant we ever saw in DP.Agreed considering Tobias had a Darkrai AND Latios on his team in normal Poke Balls lol

Honestly this is probably the thing I find strangest about Goh's arc. One would think that his goal would be the perfect opportunity to showcase all the different types of Pokeballs and how they work but nope, 99% of the time he just uses the standard red and white one. Heck, his instantly successful captures would make a lot more sense if the variant of Pokeball he always threw first was a Quick Ball, since those work best when used at the beginning of a wild encounter.Wish they remembered that NOW. It’d make Goh’s quest at least 3x more interesting if he used different types of balls depending on the situation.
Sceptile is much x100 more experienced than Raboot.2. This is hardly the first time when a Pokemon shrugs off a lot of hits and suddenly one move makes a difference (Sceptile vs. Darkrai, anyone?
It is kind of a valid point but not that different in essence. The only person benefitting is obviously Gou if Raboot gets preferred. That’s like saying “Pikachu is the one getting preferred” when Ash wins the PWC by one shotting everything with Pikachu.3. If anything, Raboot is the one getting preferential treatment. Go looked very surprised.

For the first two generations, they did it because the game didn't keep track of which kind of Poké Ball was used to catch each Pokémon. But after that, yeah, no excuse, really good. I seriously hope Goh will at least start using Great Balls and Ultra Balls at some point.I never liked how the anime always favors the normal Poké Ball when there are so many more interesting ones. I know the normal one is the most recognizable, but still, shake it up a little sometimes. I would love for more Pokémon to have unique Poké Balls.

I don't think that was any implication, though. Accoding to this episode, Zapdos creates thunderclouds around itself, but it doesn't mean Zapdos is the reason there are thunderclouds on Earth, nor is ever specified that Zapdos plays a major role for the ecosystem.Told you all, legendary played an important role for eco-system.
That restriction on the anime makes no sense... By that logic OS wouldn’t be spamming more than 4 moves on Pokémon like Drake's dragonite. Is there some source for this claim?they did it because the game didn't keep track of which kind of Poké Ball was used to catch each Pokémon
No. It's just a theory. An educated guess. I'm just as eager to see Poké Ball variants in the anime as anyone else, though, and I was kinda happy to see Gladion use different kinds of variants for each of his Pokémon.That restriction on the anime makes no sense...

I have to admit, that one irked me too. It came out of nowhere. One moment, they're attacking Zapdos just fine, and the next, they're all "Screw that, let's focus on Pikachu instead!"Like, seriously? There’s a one of a kind Zapdos nearby and you decide to go after Pikachu?
