May 10th: NS025 - A Battle Festival Exploding With Life!  VS Mega Lucario!!

No summary for this episode unfortunately. But we can tell by the title it’s the return of Korrina/Corni! I am so hyped!

[smilingperformer]

Who would have guessed a Riolu owned by Satoshi would be too adorable and melt my heart down to earth. I certainly didn’t.

Ah. Living a dream <3

[smilingperformer]

RIOLU WAS THE CUTEST LITTLE BABY IN THIS EPISODE AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH CORNI WAS HER OLD SELF HER KOJONFU EVOLVED TO KOJONDO DURING THE PAST 6 OR SO YEARS, SATOSHI WAS SO HAPPY TO SEE HER, GOU AND CONCOMBRE MEET AND CONNECT THROUGH SATOSHI sfjhgsjhgfjhfgshfjsgsjhgf

No flashbacks but I don’t freaking care all I wanted was for Corni and her Lucario to react and talk about Riolu AND I GOT MORE THAN THAT CORNI TRIED TO STEAL RIOLU’S PRAISES TOWARDS HER AND LUCARIO AAAAHHHHHHHHH ILOVEHERPLEASECOMEBACK jhsgfjshfgsjhfshjfg

Oh, she’s officially part of PWC as well so we’re BOUND to meet her again at some point! I swear, it’s too good to not let her come back!

Also the match between Satoshi and Corni was A++ tier like ohmygod Kairyu is OP lol And it knows Hyper Beam, Dragon Dance, Dragon Claw and Hurricane! real good moveset!

[smilingperformer]

;V;

I really love NS025 ok?

So so so love.

Each watchthrough I find something new to like.

Ah, I’m glad we rewatched Corni’s episodes in XY as well, made this episode so darn good.

I love Riolu, I love Corni, I love Kairyu (goddamn MVP, now I want one, please add a Kairyu in SwSh lol), Satoshi did SOOO well today and really showed how far he’s come <3

Oh, for those not aware, Gurkinn/Concombre switched VAs today, due to previous one passing away, but if you ask me, it was a real good replacement for someone as young as 40. Great job Toshitsugi Takashina!
