Thanks for pokemon_master2 showing me this.

Edit: I'm currently using the titles on Bulbapedia, and well, they are confirmed already as they are on offical website(s):

June 10- Satoshi VS Kengo! Sailing for Respective Roads!!
June 17- Treasure Hunter - Baku & Yajilon!

Summary for DP180:

PK0082 said:
"A sudden propose!? Satoshi VS Kengo with Hikari on the line!!"

Kengo, who has set his goal to next Grand Festival, was having a special training with Asagi City's Gym Leader Mikan(Jasmine).
After hearing that, Hikari starts to stress about not making her future goal yet.
At that moment, Kengo tells Hikari, "If I beat Satoshi in battle, I would like you to travel with me."
Hikari gets flustered by this sudden request.

Ash vs Kenny?

I wonder if Kenny's really gonna get into the gyms business.

And Buck appears... guess we'll know whether he'll be in the league or not.
 
Oh yay... People were complaining that we'll nevah see Buck, well here you go!

Satoshi vs Kengo sounds interesting actually.
 
You're telling me part of a title I thought of in my head, something that I thought would never come true, is real? I was so surprised when I saw the words "Ash vs Kenny". I had this idea what if there was an episode about Satoshi and Kengo finally having a battle that wasn't interrupted.

I never shared my thought on here or Pokemopolis because I didn't think it would come true. Actually I'm not much of a fan of speculation. I only post speculations if it's most likely to happen (like Shinji losing to Satoshi in the Shinou league, which would be very obvious).

You know I have a feeling other people might have been thinking about (or even posted) the same idea of an Satoshi vs Kengo episode as well.

but why do I get the feeling that Buck going to get a episode like Mira were he trick the group into helping him?

Kenny and Ash stailling? ok.........

Animation: Kazue KinoSHITa

Not interested.

Good we got a Buck episode so complainers can shut up about him being shafted.
 
Oh god Kenny again, hopefully he gets trashed because apparently Ash is getting some of his old Pokemon back on track. Also ppl on Serebii complain about Dawn setting her place where to go next, there you go haters.

Anyways, finally Buck I wonder what this treasure hunt will be like xD.
 
Ah, crap. D: Who animates the Buck episode?

Dunno, no staff info has been revealed. I'm guessing Shimura or one of the new ones (Koyama, Furukawa etc). But DP180 will certainly be Kinoshita, since her last ep was DP173. Her past ~5 episodes or so have always been 6 or 7 episodes apart. Edit: Forget Shimura, she does DP179^^.

Anyhow, I wonder if we will see another Buizel vs Floatzel battle. The folks over at 2ch speculate much about that possibility.

That was just some random league speculation from a 2ch poster. It had nothing to do with this episode.

Common sense suggests that Ash should beat the crap out of Kenny but obviously the match ends as a draw so all can be happy!

If it ends as draw or lose then Top 8 League here we come.

Edit.

*running for cover*
 
Do we know how many Pokés Satoshi and Kengo can use in this battle?
 
As it turns out, The outcome of this battle doesn't have anything to do with how Ash goes in the league. More important scene will be set here.
 
Ah, crap. D: Who animates the Buck episode?

Let's see some possibilities...

Iwane = 0.04%
That's because it's a 99.96% he animates DP182.

Kinoshita = 0.002%
Like Kairyu said, he's already definitely doing DP180.

Shimura = 33%
She rarely does two episodes apart, but DP163-165...

Takeda = 0.0000000000000000000001%
His last was DP123.

Takeuchi = 98.7%
His patterns are like this (DP161->DP171->DP181?)

Furukawa = 41%
He hasn't animated lately.

Tamagawa = 13%
Because he's too expensive, han't animated since DP156.

Natsume = 67%
Although this makes sense, he's (probably) animating DP183.

Koyama = 98.7%
He's in a conflict with Takeuchi (DP169->DP175->DP181?)
 
Yay! Kenny will be seen again, Penguinshipping! <3 I love him, he's one of my favorite rivals. I hope this means Dawn wins the Grand Festival, since they are wraping him up so early.

After Dawn wins, we'll find up what's up with Zoey, and then, they can wrap up Kenny, which takes care of Dawn's storyline even more, brilliant!

This pretty much confirms Dawn's winning next week, Kenny will say, after seeing you win, I have to be honest, I'm ready to become a champion too in my own way.

This is fucking epic! I always said Kenny's team was very built for Gyms as well as contests. I hope Kenny puts up a decent fight.

Wouldn't it be great if Kenny became Ash's rival for next saga, and maybe Dawn could stay!

I fucking love you writers!!!
 
Is it wishful thinking to want the guy to finally confess he has a thing for Hikari, or that she'll at least catch on before he's shipped off to parts unknown?

Ken has a pretty bland team except for Breloom, so a battle doesn't really sound that exciting. I've seen enough Empoleon, Alakazam and Machoke to last a lifetime, thanks.
 
I'm just happy to see Kenny appearing again after they had him lose at the appeal round (though that doesn't bother me anymore after finding out they had no space for him). And that we'll most likely see more of his Pokemon, other than Empoleon - it was a Prinplup at the time - in action. Even though, like Grave-E said, we've already seen a lot of two of his Pokemon from other people. Then again his Machoke could have evolved into Machamp. I hope that episode has a good script.

Right now I'm wondering what his sixth Pokemon might be.

If this is really the episode which Dawn decides to do next/go next, and Dawn really is going to where Kenny is going to, then I expect a lot of Ship Tease.
No, of course I don't mean what will be the ship Dawn will be sailed off for next region with when I'm talking about tease.

Anyways, I hope this isn't the episode where Dawn decides to do next. Not only because of my fanboyishness, also, it would make sense as a winged rock to have an episode Dawn decides to next without making Dawn doing nothing then talking, and instead of it, having Ash battling and still being a top coordinator that has not been topped yet. Though it really seems that's what's gonna happen.

Also, I hope Kenny brings a new Pokémon like he always does whenever he shows up.
 
Well, the last of the double battle partners arises at last. I don't really see anything impressive about Ash battling Kenny at all, but may he'll surprise me. He has a lot to make up for, being disqualified in the appeal round like that. I'd hate to connect the league to this, but since it's so close now, you better believe Ash's performance in the league will be compared to this battle. If he even has the slightest amount of trouble, his chances will not look good, no matter what anybody says. We know Ash gets far, but that kind of thing will still hang over us. The writers have been known to be inconsistent before, so it may not be as big of a deal as I think it will be. I don't see this going well for Kenny at all, really. He is skilled to make it to the GF, so I don't expect him to be a pushover. Ash just has a lot more at stake in this battle. The outcome doesn't matter to Kenny, but for Ash, he has to prove to us that he is ready for the league.
