You folks ready for some friggin’ Pokemon? Sun and Moon’s last episode served as a sort of communal celebration of Ash’s many new friends, as Ash’s entrapment inside an angry sandcastle forced the whole secondary cast to work together towards a solution. Considering the fun personalities and general slice of life warmth of Ash’s companions is one of Sun and Moon’s greatest strengths, this unsurprisingly resulted in a pretty great episode. Pallosand made for a very entertaining kaiju, Snowball and Popplio got to play the heroes, and the whole main cast proved they’ve become a competent and loyal fighting force.
I’d be happy to see the whole team face off against another irate mega-pokemon this week, but I’m guessing we’ll be switching gears instead, and embarking on an entirely new kind of adventure. Whatever the future holds, I’m sure Sun and Moon will find a way to make it interesting, and I’m happy you’re all accompanying me for the journey. Let’s enjoy another day in Alola!
