Preview JN123: The Semifinals II: "Dazzle"

[LuxrayOfTheWild]

Looks like we got a new title for September 2nd https://twitter.com/AnipokeFandom/status/1552658564807680000?t=ec9eifMtjY3oUPwJkfFgHA&s=19

Now, this is interesting. I can't imagine what "Illusion" could be referring to.

 

[LuxrayOfTheWild]

If this is Ash vs. Champion Cynthia, it could be her pulling out Spiritomb possibly.

 

[Sai]

Yeah the title doesn't really reflect any of Cynthia's pokemon this series. Sounds more like a psychic or ghost type battle...

 

[BigDocFan]

Zoroark maybe?

Either that or this whole episode is in someone's dream

 

[Sai]

On serebii, Adamant translated the title to "dazzle" instead of illusion

They've also listed it as the 9th, not the 2nd

I'm seeing on Serebii 2nd or 9th

ASH VS CYNTHIA HYPE

Zoroark maybe?

Ash wakes up from his coma.

Seems like this is going to be episode 123. Also, Playerking has used a third possible translation on Bulbapedia.

 

[Funnylion]

Maybe we'll discover that Leon's Charizard was in fact on steroids

 

[isrrael120]

another misleading title!

6v6 confirmed:

In that case I guess this and JN122 are probably a 2-parter with Leon dominating in the first part of the battle but Diantha makes a comeback(though still loses). Dazzle might have something to do with Mega Gardevoir.

I had a sneaking suspicion that'd be the case. It would've been weird for the semifinals episode titles to have numbers if it only had two episodes.

 

[Queen Cynthia]

Still very confusing...
If Diantha vs. Leon is apparently a 6on6 (which we still need confirmation for apart from that strange Twitter post) then JN123 can't be Cynthia vs. Ash already.
You simply can't cram a 6on6 match into one epsiode without completely destroying it

Ash might not even get to Leon if this is the case.

I mean, not to be a downer, but this is JN we're talking about. I can absolutely see they doing that.

(For all pratical purposes, this is a joke... But still. JN taught me to never doubt it from going any lower).

But all in all, we should still wait for official confirmations.

6vs6 battles seem to be confirmed in the magazine:
