Goh caught a Froakie. What sort of perverted sense of humour is this, may I ask?

Anyways, Clemont and Bonnie returned in this episode and with Clemont and Dracovish's help, Sirfetch'd learns a new move(so does Dracovish btw). Definitely gonna be used in the next match.
Against an Elite Four, no less. Ash has his work cut out for him. I can't remember the last time he beat an Elite Four, if that even happened.

i remember he fought Drake of the e4 in hoenn series. i can only recall that vs shellgon.


great to see Clemont and Bonnie again. their interaction was nostalgic-natural just like old times!
I wonder what happen to bonnies zygarde core Squishy. did they ever reunite.

I like when Gou fails and struggles to catch a pokemon,

Oh this is some XY nostalgia, especially with the arranged soundtracks xD but that was nice to see some of the characters back and Dracovish/Sirfetch'd training before the big battle in the next episode, that's an original team choice but I think it could work well

Animation was rough but Goh catching a Froakie and the no mention of Serena sounds like the writers just like to troll and that got me giggling like an idiot, good job.

Dragonite holding Clemont and then Chespin was cute.

The beginning of Sirfetch'd and Dracovish's friendship has been cute and weird.

Ash has been de-aged so much in two Gens, that Clemont is even taller than him now

and hearing Clemont’s inventions/Route 4 theme again gave me a big smile on my face

I believe this is the first time Drasna appeared in the anime and they gave her a perfect persona.

Really fantastic episode. Great seeing Clement and Bonnie return after the brilliant XY series. There was a heavy focus on Dracovish and Sirfetch'd this episode which was nice. I definitely like seeing all of Ash's Pokemon get the spotlight on occasion and now I am really excited for the battle next episode. Hopefully all this training will pay off.

dunno why, but it's not only the fact the clemont was one of my wishing returning characters and he finally here, but the whole returning to kalos made me love this episode. the whole XY vibes just made this episode the greatest.
oh and goh caught a wild froakie. great.

ash gonna battle elite four?
dunno if my expectation for him to beat her right away or to lose. if he will win, it will definitely set the bar high.

I loved this episode.
Bonnie is one of my favourite Pokemon characters and XY/Z as a whole probably my favourite season so to see them again was a blast!
Such a fun and wholesome episode.
