Preview JN019: I Am Metamon!

[FinnishPokéFan92]

Oh great. Gou's Rotom Phone is in the cast list. Another incredibly unnecessary and pointless capture Gou doesn't need.

Not necessarily. He could just be checking a Dex entry.

 

[Schemer99]

Just because Gou makes a capture in any episode doesn't automatically get rid of the episode's filler status (especially if they're pretty much irrelevant, too quick and require no skill at all or have no development in the episode itself whatsoever), the 8th and 9th episodes are good examples of this.

Spoiler

For the record, these are the episodes I feel are filler or semi-fillers:
Semi-filler: 3, 7, 11, 14.
Filler: 8, 9.

Episode 9 is the worst episode in the series imo.

What is wrong with him catching Pokémon? I catch a bunch of them in my games that I never use/need, they're doing good at Sakuragi park so it's not bad at all.

Episode 9 is the worst episode in the series imo.

I would say 6 was slightly worse because of all the catch bonuses and instant catches, but 9 wasn't any better so much as 6 was worse.

Games =/= anime. It isn’t entertaining to watch, and having a bunch of Pokémon whose sole trait is "Absolutely loves Go for some reason in spite of being borderline hostile before capture" isn’t, again, neither sustainable nor entertaining.

I really don't get the purpose of TR catching Pokemon if it's just gonna rotate in their Gacha really. I was excited with the Gacha at first but with the way they're handling it and how the battles against Ash are still mostly the same, awfully one-sided except for the First One in Episode 3, it's getting boring. I know this doesn't seem like me but I wouldn't mind if Gou actually captures Ditto. Out of all the Pokemon, I feel like Ditto would be a good addition especially if he wants to battle before catching a Pokemon instead of doing it the Go-way. And especially since Gou wants to capture everything-and-anything and just how unique Ditto is, it's like a must-have. Also, I feel like TR are really out-of-character this series. With the way they tried to get Gengar and how they almost tried to kill people in the Sinnoh Episode. I'm surprised that there doesn't seem to be that much complaints about that. They are villains yes, but villains with a heart.

There were some complaints about how they were written in that episode, although they were ultimately chalked up to a new writer who does not yet understand Team Rocket's characters.

Personally I do not dare to express myself too much on this subject because I’m afraid to seem too critical in the eyes of the other fans who seem to appreciate them in this series ... perhaps because of the beautiful hints of rocketshipping, I’m glad of that too but... but me, personally, I do not feel more the pleasure that I felt watching them in “Sun and Moon” and I suffer immensely because of this... The last episode was a little bit better thanks to the development of Jessie (Musashi) but I think that James (Kojiro) who has always been my favorite character is terribly bland and the shadow of himself for the moment like in BW and the very first episodes of XY.. TT_TT Kojiro is really more and more put aside as a character...

This episode Go may go with empty basket

 

[MegaGreninga]

I’m not so thrilled with episode these are more of side episodes that makes you wait for important episodes
I have noticed less battles then it used to be
In Kanto I think it has most battles for Ash

No new screenshots.

 

[Rocket Messiah]

These screnshots never reveal anything special. If im not wrong the only thing they revealed us was when they showed Jessie and James having Tyranitar and Gyarados.

 

[TRNatalie]

Some new footage!

Spoiler: Got these from a friend

 

[ii kanji]

That director looks like he needs a good arse-kicking and I think I know just the quaTRet to do it...

Second and final preview of episode:

 

[Daren]

Poor Ditto's in tears.

Meowth, it's Fury Swipes time. Don't let us down buddy.

 

[PkmnTrainerV]

I really hope the TRio gets to keep the ditto, no pokemon deserves that toxic environment...

 

[Daenerys]

Second and final preview of episode:

Jesus what happened to the days when at least 20 seconds of each final preview featured scenes from the actual upcoming episode? Now we're barely getting 7 seconds of anime footage and 23 seconds of live action crap that nobody cares about.

At least we're seeing Gardevoir.
