Preview JN113: The Last Mission! Catch Regieleki and Regidorago!!

[Weddingbells]

I don't even care about how salty this is: seeing Goh almost succeding in capturing a Zapdos just 39 eps after he debuts and actually capturing a -> Suicune <- 52 eps after his debut felt straight up insulting.

At least the Zapdos one, even if I don't agree with it, can be justified a bit with the weakening

Suicune, while I not a fan of it either, you could say it's still free. Tbh, goh rarely sees this thing, and he used it in battle once. And he did befriend it

But the Regis? Yeah I know goh has gotten more experience from the start of the series. But his cinderace and Inteleon are not strong enough to take down a legendary Pokemon. I have to see how they will execute it on the episode to really make a judgement on it. But it already feels like a reach. Considering ash got his butt kicked by a regu, but goh is strong enough to capture one?

Not to enter into the Suicune debate once again, but considering Goh's goal is to capture every Pokémon and get it's dex entry, this whole "Oh yeah it's fine cuz he's not keeping it!" argument falls flat on it's face to me, because one of the ultimate things about Goh's methods is cuz the fate of the Pokémon post-capture is damn near irrelevant, because Goh already got what he wanted, which was the capture and the subsequent dex entry. The entire point is that -> Goh should not have captured Suicune in the first place <-, not exactly Suicune's fate.

Super excited for this episode, really hoping that we get to see Thunder Cage and Dragon Energy used

 

[ManUtd22]

I wanted the best of the legends who called Battle pyrmod to appear

[SammyW27]

Yep, that pretty much confirms more Project Mew later...

 

[Kurolegacy]

Seems the voice acting cast at least confirms that Ash will appear in this episode in some capacity.

 

[cricketlaxwolvesbandy]

NOOO I DIDNT WANT ASH TO BE IN THIS EPISODE FUCK NOOOO

 

[Handy Man]

Ash could possibly be in the beginning of the episode at Cerise Labatory and only says good luck to Goh. This could still largely be a solo Goh episode.

 

[Twilight-Kun]

Ash was "in" the Sea Mauville and Lillie episodes and they were some of the better episodes regardless, so...

Look like this will be last episode of Gary ever appear in this series ever again. Sadly all these year, he doesn't have Mega and SHOULD deserved to get one since his Blastoise have the potential.

He's likely to appear in the Project Mew finale.

 

[Handy Man]

It’s just hitting me now that the finale of Project Mew is happening after the Masters Eight tournament. This is a first for the anime. In every series, the story would always end with Ash’s league. May, Dawn, and Serena’s arcs would all be concluded before Ash’s arc in a series. This is the first time in the show’s history where a companion’s arc ends after Ash’s does in a series. That’s unprecedented, and I feel like they must have a good reason for pacing it this way. They really want to end Goh’s arc in Journeys on a high note.

Gary has the highest metal count out of those trying to become Chasers. He’s bound to qualify so he’s sure to retur.

 

[Okido]

Blastoise is back!

Looks like Gou and Gary are going to have to learn to work together here, due to being ambushed by those other two Challengers. I can't help but feel like some of the tricks those guys are pulling shouldn't be allowed >_>
It'll be nice to see if they can finally get along, since they seemed somewhat close to earning each other's respect last time.

Also, there's a surprising lack of the actual Regis in this trailer? hmmm...

That's a really good point, and it really makes me hope said finale will be a two-parter at the very least. It'd be a real shame to have built up to it in this way only to cram it all into one episode at the end.
(Who knows, maybe that theory that Project Mew is actually a front for some kind of evil scheme will end up having merit...)

 

[Silktree]

The finale isn't going to be a single episode, come on. Even Darkrai and Cresselia got a two-parter.

I hope to see the jungle from Movie 1 and a real sense of danger. The latter was already foreshadowed.

As for this episode, Go should damn well capture whichever (ugly, redundant) Regis he's facing. He's supposed to prove that he can catch Mew. This is his goal; he is not meant to be inferior to Ash as a catcher.

Considering he has way less experience compared with ash, I dont see a problem with him not being as good as ash. Even though I wouldn't describe ash as a catcher in relation to goh


And idk I don't see cinderace or Inteleon being strong enough for the Regis

 

[Lightning Flame Blast]

Hold on, after four trainers, one being a champion, one being a veteran league battler and one offering team support, got shredded while taking on Articuno with three pokemon each simultaneously… I’m supposed to buy that Goh will be going toe to toe with another legendary on his own… alright then.
