No series is complete without a Koiking filler! Love the idea of evolution as a proxy for puberty tee hee hee.

Please can we have an in-the-flesh reappearance of everyone's favourite Pokeani con artist here?

That would be interesting, he hasn't appeared since his cameo in BW116

This reminds me of the Broadcast Data, I really miss discussing those.

It took a while, but fillers with Kanto Pokemon finally happened. I would've preferred to see Horsea, Seel or even Goldeen though.

The Koiking Koi-chan is a genius child actor Pokémon playing a popular role in a TV serial. But uh-oh, Koi-chan's body is starting to...

An entire episode dedicated to Magikarp? Really?! Have they gone ma... WAIT A MINUTE!

Is there a chance that they're gonna introduce the pattern Magikarp from Magikarp Jump in this episode? I mean, the Man of Mystery already made a cameo and Magikarp Jump was released during Gen VII, so maybe...

EDIT: So, after spending more than a second on this thread (and actually reading the posts here)... Why, Sun & Moon? Why do you need to have this kind of filler (whose only highlights will most likely be its """"""funny"""""" faces)? Why couldn't you do something smart and tie this Magikarp-themed episode into the game that has the most varied kinds of Magikarp we'll ever see? WHY?!?!?!

Asada/Iwane Koiking evolution episode? Yes, please.

 

[SammyW27]

Sounds like it could be a Sophocles episode. Wouldn't it be something if he caught a Gyrados?

* gets on knees * Oh Arceus in your dimension, please let the Magikarp Salesman appear!

Will be nice to hear Michael Liscio Jr. get some focus voicing Magikarp

 

[radek.tadajewski.7]

Hope this Magikarp isn't a shiny one. Nice to see more episodes about this Kanto Pokemon.

a genius child actor Koiking named Koi-chan

What they mean by that?

What they mean by that?

No idea at present

 

[PkmnTrainerV]

What they mean by that?

I thought it was a young magikarp called Koi-chan.

Great! A game show episode since Performance Pop Quiz from XY series. I'll wondering if Sophocles is going to scare shit-less in-front of television to all the audiences.
