Yay, Corni is back!

Episode was a bit meh, but we'll finally have the long awaited gym battle next episode.

Eh, episode was boring, plain and simple. Corni is back which is great, but here I thought we'd see a historical type episode where the actual mega evolution is talked about. I was expecting scientist in this episode talking about the origins of mega evolution based on artifacts founds like journals, hieroglyphics, past documents. Instead we get team rocket stealing the so called "Secret Scroll" which was just plain garbage.

Oh and Team rocket loses in a bad way. Their getaway vehicle, a balloon. XD


Well next episode should be great. Corni vs Ash.

Nice fun episode, next one should be a good one. A very much miss the depth of the original series though, nothing seems difficult and all follows a very set path.

Has Pokemon been on a break last few weeks? it took nearly a month for 43 to be subbed.

Can't wait for next episode. Corni best girl. I hope Corni will still travel with them after the gym but that most likely not going to happen since she's a gym leader.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Yeah, that doesn't seem very likely to happen, but I'd love that too. And Corni is best girl indeed. I can't remember a gym leader who wasn't a main character getting this much screentime and focus before.

The sub got released exactly two weeks after the XY42 sub, and XY43 aired exactly two weeks after XY42.

Such breaks are always announced in big letters at the end of the previous episode, I'm not sure how you missed it.

Maybe it's because I haven't been caught up in a while but I thought this episode was hilarious. Ash's dance moves were hilarious and so was Citron's crazy dance invention xD

Team Rocket treasure hunt was pretty funny as well ^^ I had a feeling the grandpa was trolling with that "secret" document lol

Aww they ended the episode right before the battle. I guess that's aliright as long as the next episode is dedicated to the battle.

And I just have to say, I really liked the rollerskating scene with Corni before the battle. It was an awesome way to prelude the battle!

Korrina came back and they walked across the sand when the sea parted, I just thought they were waiting for a ferry lol. Or maybe a Lapras but obviously they were waiting for some Bible stuff to happen xD

Team Rocket found the secret scroll and just as well they didn't take it to the boss or read it themselves and got blown away beforehand otherwise they would have been like "all that looking for this? dafuq?" lol.

That secret scroll was a huge waste of time, it was basically like a list of how not to get ill or something lol. Wash your hands etc lol.

I liked how she made the entrance in to the gym which was like a skate park with all the roller blading. Man, I need some new rollerblades, I miss that :(

Well.. good to see you again Korrina.. Dunno why but since some focus on her in the previous arc, Korrina is currently one of my favorite Gym Leader.. and nice to see her Lucario as well :P

As for the episode itself.. it's hilarious but still felt a little bit disappointed.. The title is rather misleading since the actual story of the Origin of Mega Evolution is like what, 2-3 minutes at most? and we already know 50% of the story from the previous arc.. then again, i guess this episode is more of buildup for the next ones where finally the gym battle vs Korrina begin..

Overall a good episode.. Can't wait to see the gym battle in the next episode.. 4/5

LMAO Look at them pad the scene with Corni skating around the gym just so they could meet the run time.
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).

Haha, I liked Team Rocket in this episode. They looked pretty cool on top of the statue. I was surprised they didn't start the motto once the old guy asked them the question and waited for Satoshi's question instead. Then Pikachu pops the balloon before they're in it. Meowth battling is always fun! And why didn't they read the scroll? They were in the dark and then caught like right when they found it, so of course they'd wait to escape with it.

Awesome battle, really liked the strategies Ash used.
