wow 100 episodes since the debut of sun and moon anime back in november 2016, and the mythical pokemon zeraora is here, but, will rotom dex making a data for zeraora?

 

[IncineROAR]

Oh look, more filler!

Oh look, more filler!

Doesn't the presence of a Mythical Pokémon make this episode at least a bit notable?

No.

 

[FinnishPokéFan92]

No.

Well, maybe you feel that way...

@BraixenFennekin
Definitely won't be analyse like Nebby and other Ultra Beasts had done, before a fully research conducted. Man, Zeraora, the Hakaishin (God of Destruction) finally descends in Alola. Wondering if it going to turn the whole region into ruins like the movie did? Also, this will be Team Rocket next target to be obtained following the Blinding One. If they're really interesting about it.

 

[Silktree]

Zeraora itself is a filler mythical, if to be honest. But I guess kids like it.

 

[FinnishPokéFan92]

Zeraora was featured in the newest opening, so this wasn't a complete surprise. Also makes me wonder if Zeraora will become a recurring character.

 

[Mew2]

No.

How about the the potential that the young man mentioned in the summary could be Zeranora's Trainer and, thus, could potentially take part in the Alola League and possibly (likely) be the Dream Killer for the Alola League?

 

[BigDocFan]

This has potential to be an interesting episode

Especially if Zeraora ends up becoming a recurring character, like its presence in the opening may suggest.

But that trainer isn't in the opening.

 

[FinnishPokéFan92]

But that trainer isn't in the opening.

Yeah. It could be that they're just friends.

 

[Nicolas721]

It's nice to see mythicals getting big roles after 5 years of very small cameos, and the Tapu Koko subplot being picked up after a century or so. That's what I call good ideas for fillers. I wonder if we'll get some update on the 100000000 Thunderbolt thing.

 

[KrspaceT]

I'm curious on what this might be like. Surprise me episode.

 

[Lightning Flame Blast]

By pure chance, Satoshi and Pikachu end up running into Kapu-Kokeko.

This sentence alone could sum up almost every movie so far.

 

[RetroPokeFan]

Ladies and gentleman, we could potentially have our next Tobias.

Yeah, but Legendaries and Mythicals are in the openings all the time with nothing coming of it...

Ladies and gentleman, we could potentially have our next Tobias.

Hey, SOMEBODY has to beat Ash in the League!
