In an ideal world, it would've been a two-parter with Ash, Go, and Koharu nowhere to be seen, given they have zero reason to interact with the Aether family in any capacity

The problem with this is that it would just stand out in the series. Just a random episode with no connection to the rest of journeys beyond it being mentioned in the Alola episode.

Shame they didn't make a special episode about it like the specials where Cilan met Bonnie, Clemont and Brock, mind you it probably wouldn't have been dubbed

My guess is the mysterious Pokémon could be Calyrex.

Second summary

News have emerged of a mysterious Pokémon having been spotted on the Crown Tundra in the Galar region, so Satoshi, Go and Koharu head there to research the matter. At the same time, Lilie, a girl Satoshi befriended in the Alola region, has also come to the Crown Tundra with her brother Gladio and mother Lusamine in search of her lost father Mohn.

Pretty much the same as before, but now Lusamine is mentioned too

My guess is the mysterious Pokémon could be Calyrex.

My prediction is an Ultra Beast (because the Crown Tundra also has Ultra Wormholes), probably a Shiny Nihilego, it'd make more sense for the Aether family

 

[Kurolegacy]

Just a random thought but since they’re going to the Crown Tundra, this is gonna be the first time that we actually see Koharu in Winter cloths. She really must hold the record for alternate outfits from a companion.

i feel like that would honestly be fucking hilarious because 1. ok imagine like. all of them have just moved past that whole situation right. it's not like another nihilego's gonna show up, especially not in fucking britain of all places AND THEN IT DOES. CAN YOU FUCKING IMAGINE and 2. ok this is really just funny to me but. i literally shiny hunted a nihilego in crown tundra.. pepo boy real

Well, well, well, it seems Chloe is joining Ash and Goh after all. About time she joined them on one of their adventures that wasn't filler! (I wonder if she's tagging along because of the chance to meet Lillie, or because she's met all the Eeveelutions now and the writers have nothing left for her?)

this may have worked too! I never had a problem with those undubbed specials!

Spoiler

The Lillie we see hugging Mohn in the preview is not the real Lillie, it's a Nihilego transformed into her

I personally doubt that.

 

[Lightning Flame Blast]

Mohn better have gotten them some damn good milk.

 

[SammyW27]

That preview doesn't inspire much confidence. It makes it seem that Ash-tachii will be doing things in on storyline while the Aether family looks for Mohn in another...
And this is an episode I REALLY don't want parallel plotlines in...

Not THIS crap again. I thought everyone had gotten over that by now.

 

[Articfoxgamez]

There's a distinct personality the Mysterious Pokemon won't be plot related outside of being why ash and co are at the tundra and probably showing up at the very end for 2 seconds.

I'm referring to some leaks for the episode, from a source that's gotten several things right so far.

Apparently, Mohn was rescued from the alternate dimension he was sent to and brought to the Crown Tundra by a friendly Shiny Nihilego. Mohn also has amnesia, just like in the games.

I find it so strange that they're closing this plotline now... To me it was like one of those set-ups that serve to give a character their send-off, you know, something to achieve after their story ends. It's like seeing Serena starting to date Ash midway through a series she barely appears in. Or I don't know, Ash become a Pokémon Master within a spin-off show featuring a different protagonist.

I don't know... at the very least I wish we'd gotten to see a bit more of their family journey as a set-up for this finale (sorta like I wish we'd seen Iris whenever she decided to aim to become the Unova Champion). But if they're deciding to do this, then I'm glad we're actually seeing the resolution instead of it happening off-screen. This still has potential to be a great episode, the creative decision to do it in the first place is what's taking me by surprise.

It's also moments like these that make me think Journeys may actually be shaping up to be the final series... I don't know what to make of it to be honest
