Preview SM043: Gym Battle! Z-Move VS Mega Evolution!!

Whoa, what happened to the Cerulean Gym?! :eek:

What, did Misty kick her sisters and those Water-types out and drain the pool to make it a generic battle field? :confused:
I think that since her sisters are busy doing their own thing, Misty is free doing what she wants to do with the gym.
 
Pewter Gym had a makeover as well (although by far not as drastic as Cerulean's....). It makes sense that Gym Leaders would improve their Gym over time and I actually like this makeover. The old Gym always looked like a carnival attraction to me more than anything, so this new Gym makes it look way more professional.
 
On the other hand, though, Ash has never won once against Misty...

Yeah, he did when he battled her for ownership of Waninoko. If you don't count his Gym Battle against her which never finished he has one win and one loss so really this could go either way.
 
Here's a new image of the episode.

I kinda hope Misty gives a short tour through the Gym and they pass an aquarium where we see her Pokémon.

But after SM042 I doubt that will happen. We'll probably even get left in the dark about what happened to Azurill. At least we get Psyduck and I'm already super happy about that!
 
And her swimsuit top is once again missing...

Granted, hoping for consistency in SM is laughable, so...
Maybe she planned on going for a swim at Oak's Laboratory and she isn't planing to when she's, you know battling. And Sun and Moon is good with consistency, so I don't know how it's consistency is in the very least laughable.
 
(Note:post directed to no one in particular)

At this point everyone's just complaining and anything and everything and increasing their bar of expectations again and again. Really, how much do you expect in 20 minutes?

^ This has to be on every single page on every single thread.
 
Basically this whole thing evolved into

SM ISNT CANON WE WANT CONFIRMATION THAT MISTY AND BROCK EXIST IN SPITE OF US CONSIDERING BW AND XY CANON WITHOUT THEM> M20 HAD NO MISTY BROCK *RAGE* > (A Wild episode appeared!) WE NEED KANTO POKEMON AND NEW KANTO CAPTURES IN SPITE OF NO NEED TO PROMOTE KANTO > (episode aired) WHY NO x POKEMON. WHY NOT MORE REFERENCES. WHY NOT A WHOLE NEW ARC FOR MISTY AND BROCK. WHY THE HELL ARENT MISTY AND BROCK COMPANIONS FOR SM SERIES

*Your DISSATISFIED_FANBASE grew to level 981!
Congratulations! Your DISSATISFIED_FANBASE evolved into EVEN_MORE_DISSATISFIED_FANBASE!
Your EVEN_MORE_DISSATISFIED_FANBASE wants to learn Spite!
Your EVEN_MORE_DISSATISFIED_FANBASE wants to learn Outrage!*

sorry for the caps lock but that's the most correct representation I can do of the fandom :p
 
Question, I haven't watched the episode yet and am wondering if the episode will be interesting to me if I don't feel any nostalgia for Misty, Brock, or Ash's old Pokemon or if I should just skip it?

Do you mean the previous episode?

Yeah, I had both threads open in tabs and posted in this one by accident.

Personally, I think Ash will win versus Misty because Main character and Kiawe will possibly win against Brock because from how it looked in the preview Kiawe seemed to be at a disadvantage and Pokemon loves to have it where one who seems like they will lose wins instead, most of the time because of some new move or evolution but it seems this generation Z-Moves also serves this purpose, well that and Z-Moves are the current gimmick and
 
now they can revisit every region and battle veryone of the past?
who will be next? how do you think, or will it be a Kanto only event because the regions are related?
