That park looks like its based off Central Park, so hopefully they can make the rest of Castelia as close to NY as possible.
 
Why do you say so? Was the price of the eating competition a trip to Unova or something like that?
I heard them mention Unova at the end of this week's episode, and Ash mentions the eating contest in the preview too. Maybe it's like a gathering of winners from different regions for one big competition? I'll need subtitles to be sure.

Hmmm Interesting. But this rises a question then?

Why is not Peter Grifiin Greedent in the episode? He is the one who won the competition. Wouldn't be fair if he is in it too?

The only thing it's missing to make it feel like NYC is the city's population. Why is the cast list so threadbare and why are there NO OTHER PEOPLE ANYWHERE TO BE SEEN?!

Nyasu looks cute tho, so (y)(y)(y)
 
Wow, Unova actually looks good! The skyline behind Goh really caught my eye; very much NYC!

Unfortunately, the episode itself looks insanely boring. Episodes that focus on lost Pokémon wandering around by themselves never tend to impress.

Agreed. I was disappointed with how generic Castelia City looked when it showed up in BW. Hopefully, Journeys can rectify that at least a little bit.

Yea, Alola pretty much pulled it so much that it’s still too soon.

TRio is kind of brilliant if they can make such a close copy of Pikachu. I’d love to know who taught them genetic engineering...
Well we have seen that they have been keeping footage of Pikachu so it’s not exactly totally out there that they could build a robot that’s convincing at least in the short term.

This was a problem Wyndon had. There were hardly any background characters and it made the place feel so empty, despite the fact that its based on a huge and lively city. I feel like the anime has had this problem lately.
