Why do you think it has its own Nurse Joy? Lysandre isn't allowed in there because the no homosexuals rule is a law if physics. He is physically incapable of getting through the door.

Ridiculously phoning all of this pottery in.

How mad will Alan get when he realizes Lysandre is the one that hurt Manon?
>>
>>24590799
This is where I'm sympathetic to Sushi. Why not have Alan try to approach Manon to console her, only to have her tell him off for the way he treated her earlier? Then Alan could have walked off, then we could have seen the scene where he vowed to bring back her smile by saving Hari-san. Would have made for a much more poignant ending.

The episode was fine as is, I just think it might have been better with a better-developed ending.

And he believed him, without even asking a second opinion from Sycamore and Steven. Good going, Alain.

It's Athena, you fucking pleb
>>
>>24590805
>he finds out it was Zygarde
>willing to destroy world order
>>
>>24590813
Because he's angry at himself and it's established that his personality is one where he keeps everything to himself and tries to do everything by himself? He even has only Charizard to symbolize the whole 1 man vs the world theme. He's supposed to be bizarro Ash since Ash goes around with friends who support one another while he does everything alone. It's why Lysandre made it a point to isolate him from Sycamore first.
>>
>>24590825
Yeah, just that. The opening line was missing.

Just removed certain details.
>>
>>24590832

wait I got a question here guys

does the Alain cameo in XYZ1 happen in the beginning or at the end
>>
>>24590843
I'm pretty sure he knows perfectly well why Hari-san is in a coma.
>>
>>24590843
>implying when he says "peace" he doesn't mean "peace" by destroying the world as they know it so no more conflicts arise.

>>24590849
Literally the last scene.
>>
>>24590832
>>24590842
He basically threw everything away for power, even love.
>>
>>24590852
oh

so does XYZ1 take place during MEIV or what
>>
>>24590850
>>24590851
No one actually asked him about the matter.
>yfw you realize people can actually go "Lysandre did nothing wrong"
>>
>4 episodes
>to introduce ~5 major characters, establish basic personality of the characters, build relations between said characters, expound on mega lore, showcase primals and have mega fights


It's understandable that the characters aren't as developed as the main show which had about 20x more time. With that said, now that establishing the groundwork is done, I hope the show plays with the characters introduced in the specials more.

I think what threw people off is that Alan was still floundering around between being a good guy and being a bad guy. Now that he's gone 200% EDGE, he'll probably be more entertaining as the enemy especially without Manon trying to keep him in check and once he's redeemed, he'll be able to show off more emotion. Lysandre can show off his evil side more openly too while Manon can try and become stronger rather than just follow people.

I'm hoping the first fight between Ash's group and Alan is filled with over the top stuff. Mega Evo ep1 tier special effects. Hopefully Alan makes Bonnie cry.
>>
>>24590857
No, XYZ1 takes place shortly after. The very final scene in MEIV leads directly into the beginning of XYZ1.
>>
>>24590857
MEIV ends with Squishy escaping and XYZ1 opens with it running into Ash and co.

603 KB, 1280x720
So, when was the last time we got an episode with as emotionally raw an ending as Act IV? Yeah, we've had XY69 and XY70, but that was just Team Rocket up to its usual shenanigans on a slightly more epic scale and we knew Goodra's release was coming, so I didn't feel anywhere near as moved.

With Act IV on the other hand, I felt heartbroken for Manon and I briefly forgot I was watching the Pokemon anime. I feel like in the Kalos anime series, only XY60 comes close to Act IV in this regard. What do you faggolas think?

>>24590846

I think that I enjoy watching little girls cry and be heartbroken.
>>
>>24590878
I felt the tears come when Manon started crying at the end
>>
Miya's new art.
>>
>>24590885
And then you felt those epic chills come on when Alan went into full-blown smile-protection mode at the very end?
>>
>>24590899
Yes
>>
>>24590895
>Not posting her newest art
>>
>>24590899
Not really. It's being clearly set up so Alan will get the girl, and Manon is much too cute and charming to spend her life with a prick like that.
>>
>>24590899
It really felt like he wanted to murder the guy he's fighting. I hope his descent into madness continues since I think being a half-baked "villain" was what held his character back. No more trying to be a good guy for now, just crushing people left and right.
>>
>>24590878
Those things don't really do it for me. What really gets my tears going is when someone accepts the really shitty situation they are in, as if giving up, and with a smile. An example of this is Misaka 9982 smiling just before getting crushed by a train by Accelerator.

Another would be a character trying their best not to break down crying, trying to smile all the while. Like the Index confessing to Touma scene back in season 1. Or may be there was something else about that scene, like Index trying to make Touma remember her despite knowing it is not working. I don't know.

It takes a lot to make something dramatic in animated fiction to make me cry.

>>24590899
YA'LL NIGGAHS READY WHEN ALAIN FINALLY DISCOVERS THE POWER OF LOVE?

>yfw as he battles Team Flare he enumerates all the things he wants to do with Manon as they continue travelling.

>Yfw Alain and Manon appear in the next movie
>Both are shown to be happy and travelling together
>Alain has changed his edgy clothes to happier looking ones
>Alain has a full team now
>Manon has 5 pokémon and catches her last one in the movie
Can I have happy ending like this?
>>
One guy posted it before but do you think Houndoom would have fared better if it didn't mega evolve and kept Flash Fire? Or would the difference in speed/power make it even harder?

Yeah, it was great, very dramatic. Gave me goosebumps but didn't really wet my eyes. I would like it better if Serena bit her lip as the tears came in, staying silent throughout the ordeal as her pokemon approached her.

If I could say one thing to this artist regarding this specific piece, it would be this:

>yfw the movie is about Manon and Alain

Since Ash is getting Greninjash, I'm not against Alan getting Charizard Y to top it off. Although what he'll do with the Charizardite X is another question

Considering Ash's group is about protecting and supporting one another, that seems the most likely ending with all the parallels. Alan thinks he should become strong to protect someone else when it should be him and Manon growing stronger together to protect one another.

But in the end, Alan is just that, a pawn. Maybe a knight, maybe a bishop, but in the end, only ever that. They are simply pieces to be moved around.

It wasn't an official match and people think Malva took it easier which she could have. That's one hell of an acting performance from her Houndoom though.

I think the Siebold and Malva fights were just to show Alan's near E4 level so that if Ash ties/beats him, he's shown to be ready for E4.

The only time Ash did well against an E4 member was Agatha.

Honestly it really downplays badges when some random guy who goes around with one Pokemon can beat them and a guy who collects badges can't.

What the fuck is the point of badges?
>>
>>24591296
I really wish Ash fought Agatha again after the Battle Frontier was over. It would've made for a good end.
>>
>>24591296
That one guy is powerleveling. Overlevelling one pokemon to stomp through the game and all that. It's obviously being portrayed as evil since 1) Alan isn't happy 2) he's losing the people who love him since he's obsessed with power.

He doesn't even talk to random people and if he does, it's all about battles. When Ayaka was striking conversation, she was surprised battling was the only thing on his mind. It's different from Ash who spends/wastes time on COTDs but has fun on his journey.

So i watched the first episode of XYZ and i gotta say that it genuinely is pretty hype. It's such a shame that hype lasted for one single episode and that awful preview for the next episode completely threw me off once more.

Why would they do such a stupid thing? You don't start up promotion on a supposed new series and immediately run a string of stupid looking filler afterwards. You'll scare off anyone who was willing to give your series a chance. I bet that potential series newcomers will drop it right after that. At least XY itself managed to hold my interest for the first dozen episodes or so, but this shit's looking pretty underwhelming real soon.

Do we have any sort of indication as to when this filler shit ends? Once we start getting episodes that are as good as the Opening suggests, then i might pick it up once more.

He's been power leveling and pretty much didn't have to go through all the hell Ash has to. Plus, he's pretty much throwing everything away.

>>
>>24591353
Alain isn't really a prodigy. He doesn't display anywhere near the creative ability that Ash has shown, he just powers through everything.

I can almost guarantee when they battle Alain will win simply by over-powering Ash.
>>
I don't think it's fair to compare Alain who only ever trains Charizard to E4 members who need to have a full team.
>>
>>24591366
He just subscribes to the idea that if you can't win by hitting hard, then you just aren't hitting hard enough.
>>
>>24591343
Ash Vs. Agatha was still a hell of a long time ago. You're talking about an episode at the end of the Hoenn saga and that was 10 years ago. Ash has improved tremendously since then.

People forget he lost to Bertha because Torterra loses everything, and his battle with Flint was lost because his Infernape was a lot better trained than Ash's at the time.
>>
>>24591373
I get the impression that when trainers use their Mega's that's their strongest Pokemon. So essentially he beat Malva's strongest Pokemon with his strongest so Alain > Malva.
>>
>>24591373
I think they're comparing them because they both used their ace/mega. If Malva used a team, she'd definitely win but they're just comparing their strongest since being able to match that is impressive by itself. This isn't counting the possibility that Malva didn't give the fight 100%.

Now all Alan needs to do is train 5 more pokemon to the same extent as Charizard then he'd be good to go.

You should listen to Bob in that image because that's exactly what is happening here.

I know that, but even after getting offered to be a Frontier Brain, beating legendaries, and over 40 badges…he's still kind of a joke to E4 members. I would like to think after all that he'd have far more experience than Alain. And Pikachu lasted the longest against Flint's Infernape, yet did NO damage to it at all.
>>
>>24591397
I don't think Malva gave it her all though. Compared to Siegbold who toyed with Alain with regular Blastoise, it just doesn't sit well with me.

>>24591404
"Toyed with" is too much. Matched in power at the start maybe and that was before all the battles Alan had since then. I think the Siebold match was to frame where in the totem pole Alan was. Siebold's words were that they managed to get cornered even with a type advantage (flamethrower and blast burn are ineffective) since Blastoise got knocked back once and knocked down once. It was to show that Alan had potential in the first episode despite losing.

Then in the last episode of the special, he supposedly beat an elite 4 after exchanging several blows in a closer match than the one with Siebold. Even if Malva wasn't giving it her all, I still think the match was used to portray Alan became stronger.

I got the impression that even if she wasn't giving it 100%, she was still thinking of defeating Alan with that final move. If he was too weak to stop it, then he wasn't worth keeping around anyway.

If that were the case, Blastoise could have showed SOME fatigue. But it looked like it hadn't battled at all, while Charizard look fucked up.
>>
Are you guys serious right now? Malva's Houndoom had Flash Fire. Of course she wasn't going all out. If she had, she would have let Houndoom eat all that Flamethrower spam. The fact that she Meg Evolved so early was especially obvious. She didnt need to at all.

>>24591439
Would a non-mega Houndoom's stats be enough to defeat Dragon Claw though? Its crunch when mega evolved was just enough to cancel out dragon claw. I think it's a tradeoff between losing the ability and gaining more power.
>>
>>24591442
She is worried you faggot
>>
>>24591433
I count the times they get knocked down or knocked back as the indication of how well they're doing. Take a look at Steven's fight. It shrugged off a Dragon Claw and Blast Burn. Even Siebold's Blastoise gets knocked down with Dragon Claw and gets knocked back by Flamethrower. Steven's Metagross was knocking Charizard around like crazy in comparison although I guess it's a testament to how tough it is since Charizard didn't get KOd after receiving 2 attacks from the champ.

Also count how many times Steven knocked Kyogre around compared to Alan. Alan only managed to knock back Groudon for a moment, Steven knocked Kyogre around at least twice.
>>
>>24591445
She should stop worrying Ash is based.

>>24591447
Should Pikachu technically be able to do all this shit? I know I know resets, but logically speaking, considering how much Pikachu has been through….

Pikachu smacking around Agatha's Gengar felt more impressive than tying with a Latias. Maybe that's just me though.

If Ash had battled Agatha AFTER beating Brandon, she most likely would have been thrashed
>>
>>24591447
I guess it doesn't sit right with me that a person who only trains one Pokemon will be stronger than a person who has been through as much as Ash has. Feels cheap.

>>24591470
Alan sticks to his powerhouse and fights everything only with it so it reached close to E4 level.

Ash dumps his pokemon onto Oak's because of some silly notion that he should start fresh on a new region and Pikachu gets hit with a reset stick every time. If Ash took his old powerhouses and stuck to them, he'd have already won against an E4 but he won't because plot.
>>
So who are we thinking is going to beat Lysandre and his inevitable Mega Gyrados? Is the anime going to try and push the idea that he is E4 level by having him stomp Alain? Is Wulfric going to battle him to hype Wilfric's gym battle with Ash up? Or will all the grunts be reserved for Ash and co. while Alain gets Lysandre to himself?
>>
>>24591517
The former. Then some faggot is going to come along and say, "wrap up the season without breaking the status quo so we can advertise Gen VII" and Ash will lose to Shota and Serena will leave Ash to pursue her dream of performing. He will then return to Pallet Town by himself, dump his Kalos-mons at the lab and fuck off to the new region with just Pikachu.
>>
>>24591517
>Is the anime going to try and push the idea that he is E4 level by having him stomp Alain?
I'm thinking he'll be built up as near champ level considering all the tension he has with Steven who seems suspicious of him. Probably get a fight between the two and Lysandre holds his own.

Hopefully we get a team-up between Ash and Alan but a 2v1 battle seems weird but if he's champ level, I don't see anyone beating him.

With how Naruto it's been, Lysandre beats Alan, COOLEST GUY, then Ash beats Lysandre. Then we go into League and Elite Four shenanigans with Malva wanting payback and shit.
