The description says "Satoshi and Hikari have started travelling together, however they don't really fit each other. Wanting to get Satoshi to acknowledge her power, she challenges Naoshi to a battle!"


Who or what is Naoshi?

Probably some random trainer...

Atleast we can pretty much guess Hikari won't get Subomi.
 
A trainer who's a minstrel and owns Subomi? Seems kinda obvious to me.
 
Hikari will lose. The writers aren't going to turn her into a Mary-sue and have her dominate her first battle with a type disadvantage even.
 
Well, she does have one advantage... Subomi is a useless looking Pokemon. It's like Sunkern, it doesn't even seem to be able to move. So extraneous....
 
It'd be interesting if Hikari did loose that'd she will beat the crap outta anyone to be a better trainer. XD
Hikari: "I MIGHT HAVE LOST THIS TIME! BUT I SWEAR TO GOD I'LL KICK YOUR SORRY ASS NEXYT TIME!!!"
And if she tries to attack the trainer then Satoshi will try to hold her back XD
Oh, one can only dream.
 
No more rookies! Have 'em know what they're doing!

I fail to see how being good at Pokémon would make her a Mary Sue. Hell, I'm praying she's good at it. Want to know why?

Because if she isn't, we're going back into the 'this is a Pokémon, this is what they do' lecture that'll span over several seasons, and never let up in the 'rookie learns lessons' episodes.

I seriously want a new show for Pokémon. If they want to turn the main animé into an eternal beginner's guide, then they should make another one where the people, I dunno, know what they're doing!

*sighs* Sorry, it's been a long day. :p
 
I watched May's first battle yesterday and if the writers are distinguishing her from May then Hikari should have a good idea about what she is doing.

Type disadvantage really shouldn't matter in this case. Roselia is tiny and weak as it is. Almost pocket-size. Subomi should be positively fetal. It could problably fit in the Pokeball without shrinking! And it's range of abilities should go from "slightly not dead" to "very dead".
 
I can't wait to see Ash and Hikari argue, it would be cute if this trianer called Ash/Hikari boyfriend/girlfriend LOL. Any ways it would be good if this trainer was a girl to seperate her from May. Maybe cause some jealousy for Hikari ^_^
 
No. I'm struggling to even think of when it's featured. Though, I'm sure it must have done as I believe only Porygon 2 currently holds the honour of being completely snubbed by the anime.
 
Sunkern was in some lame, Johto Champion Episode (Todd was in it as well....)

Not necessarily. Pokemon don't always grow when they evolve - look at Bellossom - it shrinks when it evolves from Gloom and ends up smaller than the base form, Oddish!
 
Has a Sunkern ever been used in an anime battle?

No, it appeared once in Johto where the characters used a Sunstone to evolve it to make some old couple that loved Sunflora happy.

Well, yeah, but this is the baby version of a Pokémon that pretty much everyone agrees sucks battle-wise. :p

Roselia is a lover (Contests and Aromatherapy), not a fighter, indeed. It hasn't even got the stats of a stand-alone or middle-evolution Pokemon. Hell, if you'll remember - May's inexperienced Beautifly almost beat Drew's well-trained one in their first non-constest battle before Team Rocket interrupted. I shudder to think of what Subomi is capable of. Falling over and dying, problably.
