So, couple new summaries for episodes 6 and 7: Contains spoilers for next week as well, slightly!
NS006: I'm Gonna Get a Ton of Pokémon! The Road to Mew!!
Go has got his first Pokémon, a Hibanny. He's now taken an interest in getting Pokémon, so he heads to Kuchiba Forest with Satoshi and the others, aiming to get even more. Despite some initial difficulties, he starts by getting a Caterpie, then continues getting one Bug Pokémon after another. Will he manage to get one of every species of Bug Pokémon from the Kanto region?!
NS007: The Houen Region, Site of Fierce Fights! The Battle Frontier Challenge!!
Satoshi and Go have registered for the "Battle Frontier Glass Cup", a battle tournament held in the Houen region. This is Go's first ever Pokémon battle, and his opponent is Hoji from Fuen Town. Hoji sends out a Graena, so Go challenges him with his Strike, who has a type advantage here. Meanwhile, Satoshi is rapidly advancing through the tournament, winning battle after battle. And believe it or not, when he makes it to the match that truly matters, he sends out...?!
So: the Battle Frontier is a battle tournament held in Hoenn. The Battle Frontier located in Hoenn in the games is located in Kanto in anime instead, so it did seem odd. Also, confirms what Gou’ll end up catching in episode 6 (Strike = Scyther, also Graena = Mightyena). Intriquing, intriquing. Thou most intriquing part is the fact that Satoshi’s Pokémon sends out is kept a secret? Why? Is it some past Pokémon? The summary kinda makes it sound like it’s not the kind of decision you’d expect someone to make, but this is Satoshi! :D Sounds like ep 7 will have focus on both Gou and Satoshi, while ep 6 is Gou’s focus episode. Makes sense, Gou is new, while Satoshi is the same. Would love to see Satoshi catch a Galar Pokémon at some point thou, right now there’s no sign of it happening... hm.
Anywho, wanted to discuss these a bit, put under the cut because I don’t want to accidentally spoil people :)
