this is such a wholesome sequence that i don’t think i could ever string together a bunch of words that do justice to how it makes me feel inside.

Even when rivals during league, Alola Squad sticks together! ♥

Jessie’s and James’ disguises from the preview for next week’s episode look really cool honestly 👍👌

Some new images from Sun and Moon Episode 129. We have DJ Leo’s Alolan Dugtrio in the Battle Royal and Turtonator going up against Magmortar.

Mood

Salty at Kahili and Plumeria being kicked out from the Alola League at the preliminaries. I mean, we didn’t even get to see the former, who’s an Elite 4 in the games, in action at all!

In my humble opinion, they should have let them advance instead of Jessie and James, they didn’t really earn their place on the League (sorry, Rocket fans!).

On the plus side, at least I’m glad to see Mallow use Shaymin in battle, though I hate that basically made it look no better than any of the mon showcased in the Battle Royale, despite being the strongest species there. Why the anime and other Pokémon media have to portray some Legendary and Mythical mon as being far weaker than their game counterparts so often!?

There was so much good in SM129, I swear this is my favourite opening battle for any league. Seeing most of the contestants be characters we all know from before, seeing Rocket Gang survive the pre-round with avoidance tactic, seeing the Alola Squad work together, seeing Gladio work together with Satoshi to make sure both of them get to TOP 16, the wonderful humor with Boruto-named Pikachu appearing in the episode from Pikarla, Mimikyu running wild, Pyukumuku vs Magikarp, GOSH I swear I’ve never had this much fun and enjoyment while watching a league at the same time! Totally loving it. I expect lots of fun and exciting times from this league!

And I keep on crying at Alola Squad cuz oh my GOD the new ending is so freaking beautiful, the homage to roiginal is perfect, with way more frames involved and such a wonderful ‘story’ in it. Satoshi, as always, is amazing. I tried giffing couple scenes but it’s honestly hard but GOSH LOOK AT SUIREN

Such a wonderful running animation I just adore it so much!

Mao and Amajo are absolutely cute in this as well just such a happy jump but honestly, the crown goes to Kaki:

HE’S JUST RUNNING NON-STOP AND THEN BAKUGAMES FALLS DOWN AJHGDSFJDHF KAKI YOU PASSIONATE SOUL YOU!

Lilie on the other hand is being such a cutie by running at her pace and keeping her hat in check-

And Mamane is having trouble. Poor Mamane <33

But like, best bit is def the last bit, because holy cow it brings out so many emotions in me and GOSH

I repeat myself way too much but I. love. Alola Squad. So. Freaking. Much!

Gonna have to restock my tissues for September/October when the series comes to an end. But before that, let the League hype continue!
