Summary:

Latias once again appears before Satoshi and Pikachu, using its "Dream Projection" to show them Latios being attacked by Pokémon Hunters!

 

[RetroPokeFan]

Seems like this episode will bring closure to the whole Latias mini-plot and why it's been following Ash and Pikachu.

Also looks to be an Iwane episode from the screenshot. His last one with Ash and Pikachu as leads.

I don't care about Latias tbh.

 

[Gabo2oo]

Now this is embarrassing. All this time I had the mindset that they'd chosen Latias for the final arc as an "obvious" counterpart to Lugia for mainline Journeys. Guess I dissociated so hard it never dawned on me that Latias is the counterpart to Latios, not Lugia. I'm lucky I never brought it up or I would've looked like a total doofus.

And Lugia's obvious counterpart will appear in the last episode.

Six episodes of not me caring about Latias...and now they want me to care about Latios? And with the overused "Legendary is being hunted" plot? Well, at least this boring plot will not take time off from the finale.

Ash please catch Latias here. Surely it pays off if they’ve been teasing this the whole series

 

[marshiyanmisuta]

I searched for this "Dream Projection" thing Latias apparently had and it's the "Sight Sharing" from Movie 05. So, this Latias has same powers as the movie one.

Unless all Latioa & Latias share the ability.

If wont join him for the next epiaode it would be lame. Presenting Ho Oh might take down the effect though.

 

[marshiyanmisuta]

Existence of a Latios (brother or not) shoots down the possibility of a capture, unless he capture both of them, which seems very unlikely to me.

I agree, but it opens a greater door

If this is true, this will be interesting

One small thing I want to point out is that the title of this episode is actually "Satoshi and Latios" (サトシとラティオス！) rather than "Satoshi and Latias".
Not that it's that big of a difference exactly, but it could be important in the context of the episode.

Don't tease me, Twitter...

Though there's only ONE Pokemon Hunter I want to see here...and she's dead.

And even then I'm not sure how I'd feel about her being wasted in this crappy mini-series...<_<

 

[Konja7]

I've understood the name of this episode is really Satoshi and Latios (not Latias).

As the real title implies, Latios seems to have more relevance in this episode.
