Re: Upcoming XY episodes - Barbaracle, Sanpei & Greninja / Froakie's possible evoluti
I'm not sure agree with Sanpei being a rival, especially since it seems more than likely that Sanpei will only ever have Greninja. I mean I could be wrong, but the only thing Sanpei seems to be, is possibly just an extra guide in helping Froakie develop. Perhaps knowing things more about Froakie's issues than Ash.
Edit: There's one hypothetical theory that could happen in which Froakie won't evolve.
Now all the evidence would suggest that Froakie will evolve. The evolution part taking place where Sanpei already has a Greninja, the fact it's Froakie evolving NOT Frogadier, and the Frogadier in the title.
But there's one possibility that I can't discount.
Sanpei's Frogadier could've battled this person's Barbacle (Shiftry Costume Guy), before evolving and there will be a flashback revealing this moment possibly of Frogadier battling Barbacle. And during the present battle Froakie begins to evolve but changes its mind. Staying a Froakie. I can't think of anything noted that would go against that logic. Because the events even though they suggest an evolution, might not be connected. Ash's Froakie DOES seem to evolve, but since we don't the context of this Frogadier vs Barbacle, there's no guarantee it will be Ash's hypothetical Frogadier battling Barbacle, when we don't see an image of Frogadier vs Barbacle suggesting it could be a flashback to an earlier battle with Sanpei's Frogadier before it evolved.
I would like to think whomever created the title, wouldn't pull a, dumb title focusing on Sanpei's Frogadier in a flashback moment, but we have gotten weird titles for episodes before.
But, it's possible.
