From what I’ve personally counted, from my perception of what episodes are filler, and what aren’t...
Journey Episodes, Whether They’re Filler Or Not...Yes = Filler
“Filler episodes are entries in a generally continuous serial that are unrelated to the main plot, don't significantly alter the relations between the characters, and generally serve only to take up space.”
1) No, since it gives some background on Pikachu, and Goh’s past to learn from
2) No
3) Up to interpretation, but I don’t think it is personally as there growth between Ash and Goh
4) No
5) Introduces Dynamax/Gigantamax, and there’s some growth for Goh and Scorbunny, so I’ll count it as not filler
6) No, to some degree. The premise is simple, but it does count as development of Goh’s goal, so I’ll let it slide
7) No
8) Yes
9) Yes
10) No
11) No, since it establishes Yamper and Chloe.
12) No
13) No
14) No, only because Goh and Ash are introduced to a “Raid Battle”
15) Debateable, not really sure. You have Cubone interacting with Goh as an actual capture, but I’m still not sure...I’ll Yes for now.
16) No
17) No
18) No
19) Yes
20) Yes
21) No
22) No
23) Yes
24) Yes
25) No
26) Yes
27) No
28) No
29) No
30) Yes
31) Yes
32) No
33) Yes
34) No
35) Yes
36) No
37) No
38) Up to interpretation again, there’s growth for Goh bonding with Aerodactyl, but there’s not much to pass it off as a non-filler. I’ll say No for now
39) No
40) No
41) Yes
42-45) No
46) No
47) Yes
48) Yes
49) No
50) Again, not sure. I think it is, despite a capture as there’s not much to base it off of
51) No
52) Yes
53) No
54) No
55) Could be seen as a filler, but there’s some growth from Chloe, not sure. I’ll say Yes for now.
56) No
57) Yes
58) Yes
59) No
60) No
61) Yes
So, from my point of view, and again, I’m not exactly an expert, but I’d say there’s been around 18-20 filler episodes. Is that a lot for the anime? Cause it seems that way to me. Again, not an expert and I was looking to see if there’s a unusual trend with the amount of filler here.
