The preview starts with Pochama, Hikozaru and Juptile riding on a Laplace across the sea.
A group of Yamirami are attacking something (we see a Yamirami with the group right before, so I doubt these are bad guys).
A Yonoir is seen shooting a purple beam at the group, and Juptile jumps in to block it.

The episode will also show off the new Mystery Dungeon game, and Robert will go on their own expedition to "explore the sky", including a ride in one of those free-fall amusement park attractions.

This episode will air April 12th at 7:30am JST.

Added the (probable) airtime in the original post.

Pokemon Sunday hasn't made the switch over to HD, has it? My local TV-Tokyo station automatically crops all their HD programming to fullscreen whenever it's watched on a standard def TV, so I wouldn't be able to tell.

I don't think it has switched, but I get TV Tokyo cropped here too, so I don't know for sure.

Quick, dumbass question: so is the animated portion going to be thirty minutes? Because I don't really see that amount of time giving the finale of MD2 (and the neccesary set-up) justice.
 
Re: Pokemon Sunday 234 "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky" Preview Threa

It will likely be about 20 minutes, the same length as every other anime episode. These Mystery Dungeon episodes are more about introducing the concept and universe than telling a complete story.

Well, yeah, I was including commercials, of course. :p

Aw, the emotional impact's going to be ruined. But ah well. Hopefully they'll make the best of it. And I really want to see Primal Dialga, dang it.

Yay, this is airing on my birthday :-D What a great present! Will this be in HD?
 
Re: Pokemon Sunday 234 "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky" Preview Threa

IIRC the preview was just in full screen.

Oh, that's annoying :/ Shimura's animating this, isn't she. Hopefully it'll be well done (as in, she's got Iwane on the team).
 
Re: Pokemon Sunday 234 "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky" Preview Threa

Oh, then that must be what's airing right now. I'm watching Pokemon Sunday and had no idea what was going on.
 
Re: Pokemon Sunday 234 "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky" Preview Threa

...I'm seeing the 3 clowns at a theme park. Have I missed it or something? I've been watching since (according to TV Tokyo's clock) 7:30...

Ok, fine, it's started ;-)

Ooooh....is it good? *is impatient*

Yeah, I live in the U.S. Stinks...
 
Re: Pokemon Sunday 234 "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky" Preview Threa

Anyone who can, possibly, get me a pic of Primal Dialga (if he appears, otherwise that royally sucks) might be my friend for life (depending on who gives it to me).

It was good, and makes the fact that this is never going to be a series all the more disappointing. These guys are such good characters, and the plot is really solid, so it's a real shame this is more than likely the last we'll see of them.

Grovyle subduing Dusknoir, jumping hundreds of feet in to the air and diving into the portal wasn't quite what I was expecting from that particular scene, but I was still welling up with some sort of emotion at that point, so I guess it did it's job.

Also loved the Sableye sort of perching itself on Dusknoir's collar near the begining.

I knew I should've taken screenshots....

Anyway, I'm probably the only one here who who isn't very fond of Mystery Dungeon. It was still pretty good, though I probably would've gotten more out of it if I hadn't read spoilers.

And since there's no other thread to put this in, let me say how freaking awesome it is that their airing the Crystal Onix episode next week. If Pokemon Sunday can stick to these old episodes it'll really be something to watch every week.

I just watched it OMG it's incredible also the part of the opening is pretty much piplup, chimchar and grovyle taking out random pokemon and ridding on Lapras to the hiden land
 
Re: Pokemon Sunday 234 "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky" Preview Threa

Spioler

Also They don't battle dialga they only leave on a cliff hanger of how piplup is worried about chimchar being alone like in the game and head off to temporial tower
 
Re: Pokemon Sunday 234 "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky" Preview Threa

Okay I saw the whole summed up in one word AWSOME

I'm just saying that this wouldn't make a lot of sence to anyone who doesn't know the story of PMD2 I love how they show a backstory that wasn't in the games about the guild being stopped in time but were is croagunk, diglit and digtrio also why doesnt Dawn's piplup know hydro pump
My favorite part was how they used music from the game
 
Re: Pokemon Sunday 234 "Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of the Sky" Preview Threa

Yes it also knows whirlpool Chimchar knows flamethrower and fire spin and grovyle knows energy ball and bullet seed
