After playing the games i thought why not give this a try. And i must say that i'm not disappointed. The complete new cartoonish style kinda suits the far away region and its people and Pokémon.

Would have been really awkward if the ring didn't fit.

I don't really care for this art style for Satoshi nor his personality. It feels like he got the reset instead of Pikachu. The rest of it looked fine, it's just Satoshi and I don't think it's something I'll get used to.

extremely dynamic animation especially on ash's part.

i wasn't into when Mr. Mime put his hand on Delia's thigh but whatever.

I'd already seen the new art style before but yeah it's ... an interesting choice. - Not as terrible but it's gonna take a bit to get used to.
The animation however was clean, haven't seen such expressive faces before in Pokemon.

Not the biggest fan of the constant music in the background and it alternating between every single interaction / character. - Feels very cartoonish, is very overwhelming and it doesn't fit Pokemon imo.

Very fun opening episode though, not as serious as XY/Z but just a lot of fun :)

looks better than I've expected. I didn't want to watch it when it aired because I liked the art of the last season too much, it still feels kinda weird seeing the characters like this.
A good start I'd say.
