This one shows Sazare taking a photo of Liko, Roy and Dot. Wonder if she got a good shot? The opening animation will feature a different photo every week! Check it out in the Youtube upload of the episode as well!
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/1858389677948154082>Pokémon Anime Highlight:>Here is the mysterious scene Liko and the others saw, showing Lucius putting Basagiri in its ancient monster ball and setting off on his adventure towards Rakua! He also called out the name "Rystal"... Who could that be?
>>273301353
>>273301383
>>273301410
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/1858782263296851986>Pokémon Anime Trivia:>The Fire Croc Pokémon Achigator: The egg-shaped fireball on its head is a combination of Achigator’s fire energy and overflowing vitality. In episode 73, the group looked at the direction this fireball swayed to help them reach the exit to the cave!
So no more Sazare then?
>>273301482She felt pretty pointless in general, especially last week's episode would've been literally identical even without her.
>>273301498>PuniruDamn, nice.
This is a predator.
>>273301353My guess is still that Rystal is the only one of the original trio that's actually dead.
>>273301623God I wish that was me.
>>273301690If Rakua really exists outside of the normal flow of time, that'd make sense.
We should start getting pro tweets for this episode in a couple hours, they'll probably explain more about Rystal.
>>273302307I expect a couple of those Pokemon Anime Recap tweets too
>>273301897Sex with Liko
So if they're meeting that woman from the past then that would cover every scene from the preview. You think that they will release a another arc preview after this friday?
>>273304189Well yeah.
>>273301353That guy is just Seliph.
>>273301461Anotheer evo soon?
>>273301383So are those flashbacks told from Terapagos's point of view or actually of that Rystal?
>>273304338Nah, they just hadn't covered Achigator yet in these trivia tweets.
>>273304435That's a fair question. The latter would explain how Terapagos is shown in some of them. Like someone witnessing those events.
>>273304435It's the second one presumably.
>>273304189Yeah
>>273302811>>273303662Calm yourself, Dot.
Sex with Liko.
>>273304650That's weird.
>>273301160It's been two years already since SV came out? Fug.
>>273301897>Reposts it despite the image asking you not to do itWhy?
>>273307072
>>273304338Probably won't evolve until the endgame
>>273304322Qrd on Seliph
>>273307072Don't tell them
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/1859114458297291208>The Pokémon anime episode airing Friday November 22nd is... episode 74, "The Three Explorers"! Liko's grandmother Diana has returned to the ship, but before the catch-up discussion... it's time for a battle between Windie and Nyarote.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9Rp_VMwKDY
>>273307621Here we goo!
>>273307621Wonder how much of the episode will be spent on the battle.
>>273307821Probably the first half.
>>273304694>Like someone witnessing those events.Her witnessing those events makes sense. >>273307429One of the protagonists/lords from Fire Emblem Genology of the holy war.
>>273302307I think they'll highlight Diana more since Rystal seems to be spoiler-heavy.
>>273308081These tweets tend to be focused around the wording in the official summary, and it doesn't really talk much about the battle >>273301160
>>273304694Terapagos was only shown in the watchtower one, wasn't it?
>>273306793The two episodes where they'd logically have covered it both got bonus edition trivia tweets. Episode 67 covering the moves and abilities used in the Liko VS Roy battle and episode 69 covering Yabasocha's Matcha Gotcha. Then 68 was about Syaritatsu, 70 about Otoshidori, 71 about Hisui Gardie and 72 about Ohrot.
>>273308176Rystal is in the OP carrying it around so it staying out of sight in most of these flashbacks isn't exactly weird.
>>273308268What if Rystal's soul got transferred to Terapagos
>>273308316That sounds excessive.
>>273308316Wouldn't that keep her from being summoned?
>>273308484She could get summoned from inside Terapagos.
>>273308532That wouldn't exactly fly with the idea of the crystal pool.
>>273308316>>273308532I kinda like the idea of this, even if I don't think it's very likely.
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/1859144656472469723>Diana was traveling the world on her own, researching Lucius separately from Liko and the others. The secret of Lucius' that she gained knowledge about while doing this was one that involves the connection between Lucius and the Explorers. She now tells the group about the three adventurers that founded the Explorers!
>>273308900
>>273308911
>>273308923
>>273308938Assuming it's not make-up it's funny how she has those noticeable cheek blush some characters have only hers are square.
>>273308938Why did Gibeon had such an stick up his ass?
>>273308938>PokeBag
>>273308938Rystal a CUTE
>>273308938She could pass as Yuno's ancestor.
>Gibeon was a moody gramps then and is a moody tard nowFitting
>>273308911What town is that?
>>273308938>Quiz: Find the person who's "secretly" evil
>>273309123Based on the Pokemon we see, I'd guess somewhere in Johto.
>>273309154IT'S THAT BAG
>>273308900I do wonder how diana learned/found this new info. She spent 20 years on this mystery before giving up and nothing since reuniting with liko is new enough to find a new lead after all this time.Is it like that meme about gambling? If only she kept going for 1 more year she would have hit paydirt and broke the mystery wide open.
>>273309257Either the gambling meme or she looked at it a different way.
Watch as Rystal will redpill everyone on how to exploit men.
>>273309334That guy has a shit ton of swag
>>273309334Huh, kewl chad
>>273301461Why is there an egg?
Any suggestions for a third capture candidate?
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/1859152199412281527>Pokémon Anime Spotlight:>Diana reveals that she and Hamber used to be friends. However, in episode 25 of the Pokémon Anime, Hamber and his companions attacked the old castle where she lived, calling themselves the "Explorers". Diana has been investigating the Explorers in order to find out what their goal is, and has learned some new information...
>>273309391Liko might get Terapagos, based on the opening.Unsure about Dot and Roy. Perhaps they will each get a legendary as their third capture before the final fight with Gibeon.Y08K0
>>273309458
>>273309458She has that doll look going for her, she's cute.
>>273309458Ooh shit here we go.
>>273309458Hamber looked like a boss while young.
>>273309469Someone suggested a Pokemon for Roy based around the history/treasure theme. Probably that. Dot is a wildcard though so there's that.
>>273309498He could also rock a skirt.
>>273309458Oh damn, looks like we're getting quite a bit of news this episode.
>>273308938She looks more like a guy than Lucius. Gibeon probably wanted to fuck both.
>>273308938My three explorers look like they're straight out of a FE game
>>273309458How old would you say this photo is?
>>27330973950 years old
>>273308938Tomboy/10
>>273309458Diana has aged way more gracefully than Hamber, damn.
>>273309856Hamber kills it
What even happened to Rystal?
>>273310030First victim of Terapagos' bloodlust.
>>273308911That fucking mustache
>>273309257The way she reacted when Hamber namedropped the Explorers in episode 25 makes it clear she had no idea there was a modern organization by that name, she only knew it as the name of the Lucius/Gibeon/Rystal trio. That's what's she's been researching.
>>273310498So she searched for the right name in the wrong places?
>>273310502I doubt she searched for the name at all, since it was just a minor trivia point to her that Lucius and his friends called themselves The Explorers
>>273310636Lol, Diana must have know where to search then after running into her former partner
>>273308984You'd be angry too if your cute partner was fucking your other partner instead of you.
>>273310936
>>273310954Not exactly news that he's related to Gibeon
>>273310954Hmmmmm
>>273310972Bullshit connection fell put before the third post got posted. >>273310979
>>273310979The plot thickens?
>>273310979>Rystal is Gibeon's daughteror>both Gibeon and Lucius fucked Rystalor>both of the above are true
>>273310979Well I'll be. Liko might have an extended family.
>>273310979>the reason Lucius and Gibeon had a falling out was because Gibeon stole Rystal from him, not the other way around >Rystal is Amethio's grandmotherDidn't see that one coming.
>>273311064What if the big twist turns out to be that Lucius isn't related to Liko at all but to Dot
>>273310979What the actual fuck?
>>273311199That would also change the context big time between Liko and Amethio
>>273310979Fug
>>273311276Yeah, they never actually said anything about them being related, Diana just found the pendant in the attic.
>>273311591It seems obvious because Lucius' hairstyle has the same distinctive wing in the back as Liko's.
>>273311276LOL "sure" XD
>>273310979AAAAAAIEEEE
>>273310979Fug, this got interesting.
>>273310979wtf?
>>273310979Gibeon's sister maybe
>>273312853>Gibeon is mad because Lucius broke the Bro codeFuck...
>>273307950Thx
>>273312853Oh shit THAT'D be interesting.
>>273301181https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elisa_%26_Marcela^THIS but LikoDot
>>273312853That would be super awkward for Amethio and Liko
>>273310954>>273310979>So uuuh Liko? We've got to talk
>>273313520What would that make them, second cousins? Although Lucius is at least Liko's great-grandfather is not more, so Amethio would be Liko's second uncle.
>>273314002*if not more
>>273314002>SAY UNCLE LIKO!!!Lol
>>273314002It's not about the grade of blood relative it's about the mess altogether. Imagine being Amethio and you're being tasked with trying to rob a little girl who just started to be a Pokemon trainer of her pendant. Then it comes out there's more behind that pendant, you're getting essentially demoted for working together with your target. And then somewhere among the lines you find out that the girl you tried to rob is your only other blood relative.
>>273314071>It's not about the grade of blood relativeIt is, I want to hear Liko say 'uncle Amethio!'
Lucius was dating both siblings.
>>273314203Explain why Gibeon is grouchy then
>>273302307Well, now it looks like it.
>>273309334Would the one on the right.
>>273304351He looks like a fire emblem lord on Marth's lineage
>>273309458Sex with Diana.
Where is Round two of the fightclub?
>>273316131We haven't seen Potdeath in quite a while, have we?
>>273313402Is gay marriage still illegal in Spain?
Sexgo.
>>273316407>The Pokedoko Abaplorers segment isn't going to have anyone cosplaying SangoI feel robbed
>>273316407She stinks
>>273316407Pretty sure she'll be back for the next set of episodes, they seem done with the Kitakami locals for now.
>>273317016That'd make sense. Wonder when we'll learn more about what's next.
>>273316322It was in the Yabasocha Friede segment.
>>273312853Exactly my cup of tea.
>>273317575God I wish that was me.
Thigh QUEEN
>>273318664btw it's Nice Thighs Day today. Likos are getting posted.
>>273310954>>273310936>>273310979>Liko/Amethio may be relatedWell, that's certainly one way of killing the competition
>>273319045YOU WON'T STOP ME!!!!!
Rystal also has similar hair to Hamber, which... could also maybe mean something.
>>273319141Oh huh.
>>273319475
>>273314175Bruh..
CUTE
>>273319731>Here Amethio-sama, use this forbidden instrument against Spinel.
>>273320619
>>273319141Interesting if true.
>>273309458>fanart alreadyDamn
Permission to ship Diana and Hamber?
>>273321387
International DotLiko.
>>273321492That's adorable.
Liko thought this
>>273321492Cute and gay
>>273321354These recent news definitely got a lot of people very intrigued.
>>273323231Hamber is decent but he would benefit from an episode or two.
>>273318776>Nice Thighs DayWhat?
>>273324292"ii futomomo no hi".Not entirely sure why, the "ii" is obviously because "ii" looks like 11, but not sure about the connection between 20 and futomomo.
>>2733244552*10 -> fu - to? Sounds forced even for goroawase bullshit.
>>273320564Dot gonna fuck Liko
>>273324498Pretty sure 0 can be interpreted as 10 in goroawase as long as it's not at the start of a number.
>>273324824Yeah, because numbers from 20 to 90 are written as unit-ten, but it's still weird.
Havent watched this in a million years. Is Amethio still "evil"?
>>273325109Spinel sprang a trap to catch him helping Liko on camera and he's been half-disowned by Gibeon. He's still part of the Explorers but is on his own with no contact with the other admins (though his underlings are still loyal to him), and had a frank discussion with Liko for the first time. He's on his way.
>>273325194Good. He needs to reform and have sweet hand holding with Liko. Maybe add Friede too.
>>273319045There were worse ways to get counted out.
>>273325109Pick it up again, anon. You've missed a lot of brat.
>>273324813Goodbye.
>>273323040Sauce?
>>273325685I might do so. Stopped watching it in ep 26 so there is a lot to pick up. Also Sango best girl.
>>273327275>Sango best girl.>Stopped watching it in ep 26Oh you haven't seen ANYTHING yet
>>273327364I can fix her
>>273327398Oh you can, can you?

>>273328444Already? Damn
>>273328444Finally a serious-sounding episode about Landou.
>>27332844>78Entei already?
>>273328444>78th is the Entei battleThat's fast. Is it gonna run away to reflect the old games or are they already gonna collect all of them by the end of this year?
>>273328595Given the lack of buildup leading to 78, probably the former.
>>273328444>A fucking wynaut pun for an episode title
>>273328553People were so focused on the young mollie in the ending they didn't noticed the mighty G silhouette in the ending also has a different design then the one from the dolphin episode. Obviously "young landou" could still be him in his 50's or whatever so it doesn't have the same ring to it.
HAPPENING!>December 6th: PM2023 076 - Sohnano? Soh It Is!>December 13th: PM2023 077 - Randou Returns to His Hometown>December 20th: PM2023 078 - A Fierce Fight Against Entei! A Noble Roar of Flame!!
>>273328768Fug
>>273328748>nobody in his town recognizes him because they only ever saw him as not-Allmight
>>273328768Huh. Is this still Kitakami?
>>273328768>no summariesOk that's gay
>>273328842I doubt it, there's only one town in Kitakami. It's probably taking place in an original location after they set flight again like the Lapras arc.
>>273328768>Entei already>at the end of the first courWhat's cour 2 going to be about then?
>>273328902Rayquaza Rising
>>273328768>Randou episodeThat's different.
>>273328768Sohnano isn't obtainable in SV. Probably will take place in a region where it is available.
>>273328768Well damn, we sure got a lot of hype news today
>>273329035The only region where it's available in the wild is Galar, are we going back there?
>>273329035Well wynaut is a johto mon, the mighty g named his boat after olivine/asagi city and has a quagsire, and of course entei itself is a johto mon... idk man feels like they're in johto this arc.Which is funny since based on real life geography wise it's the equivalent of going "alright everyone, time to set off towards johto... and we're there!"
>>273329164We're going to Mirage Island.
>>273329190Actually yeah, that's probably a good point.
>>273329190Entei is a Johtomon too.
>>273329282Yeah. There go the theories of them going to the Indigo Disk for info on it.
>>273329190I haven't watched the OG series since I was a kid and didn't watch the last one aside from Masters 8, were there episodes set in Johto? I'm always interested in seeing if they keep dancing around including characters seen in the previous anime, they sidestepped it in Galar since Kabu never appeared but I don't think there are important Johto characters who were never seen.
>>273329376If you mean whether any episodes of PM23 have been set in Johto, then no.
>>273329465Nah, we largely figured out it's presumably Johto.>Randou named his boat after Asagi City in Johto and is thus probably from there>Entei is a Johtomon>Sohnano is the baby form of a Johtomon
>>273329376>>273329478>they make up Eusine's twin brother who is obsessed with Entei
>>273329164That's a decent guess. I think if they go by location mapping then the Engine City Riverbanks would one stop for the episode. Plus it would give them an easy excuse to feature Kabu again since that's right next to his city.
>>273329532Unfunny.
>>273329376>but I don't think there are important Johto characters who were never seen.Mr. Pokemon never appeared in the anime, but that's seriously stretching the definition of "important character"
>>273329603At the very least they could show some HGSS redesigns for the first time.
I'll just wait and see until the preview for the 76th episode is shown. Besides that, between Johto and Galar, the latter has still some material and characters left unused so there's that too. Plus if it gives an opportunity to see Wakaba again then I'll take it.
>>273329634desu I'm pretty sure they're just going to use the setting without showing any characters, like they've always done.
>>273329657>the latter has still some material and characters left unused so there's that too. Plus if it gives an opportunity to see Wakaba again then I'll take it.Ditto
>>273329657I don't think Randou is supposed to be British.
>no more KitakamiNot too happy about this desu. Feels like they just went there to speedrun the place and then leave.
>>273329751There's really nothing else there unless you do the whole Ogerpon plotline.
>>273329770...which they should
>>273329792I am still somewhat skeptical over what state the anime is taking place in-verse? After the events of SV? Briar said she has yet to distribute her book yet she already saw a Terapagos, which is something that happens after the Terapagos of the DLC was fought
Ogerpon is one of the most popular Pokemon of gen 9, there's no way they're not going to showcase it.
>>273329843Just a different continuity where they pick and choose what to keep. But they've consistently discarded everything from SV that isn't directly tied to Terapagos, and even then specifically to their OC Rakua Terapagos as opposed to the Area Zero one.
>>273329843>what state the anime is taking place in-verse? After the events of SV?It would explain why Nemo, Botan and Pepper would willingly hang out with each other. That incident at Area Zero was probably just the cover-up for the finale of SV
>>273329892Dunno man, the 46th episode onward felt a lot like they used the Endgame state of the characters. Botan wouldn't exactly work with the league out of her free will.
>>273330126That reaction from Liko...Dotfags, sorry...that girl Is straight
>>273330386Nice try
>>273328768>still no sign of the ExplorersWhere are they?
>A Noble Roar of Flame!!Isn't Noble Roar a move that the paradox Entei can learn but not the normal one?
>>273330649That is correct. The Japanese title says おたけび, which is the name of the move.
>>273330649>leave Paldea>NOW they encounter a Paradox monUuuh...
>>273330649Yeah it is, kinda a weird conflict in naming. Almost as if it's a Paradox or something like that.
>>273330649Yeah. Looks like this isn't the normal Entei after all.
>>273330711>>273330733Now I'm somewhat doubtsof whether they'll head to Johto in the first place if they follow through with the Paradox theme
>>273330813They could go wherever, Gouging Fire is only supposed to be found in Area Zero so they could make up any reason for it to be elsewhere. Maybe Lucius once visited the place and now it just ended up where the crew finds it.
Ok that noble roar aspect changed my expectations of the episode. Should I wait until they show the next arc preview or just until the first december preview gets dropped?
>>273330963We're likely to get some big preview of this upcoming arc next week.
What is it now? the normal entei or the paradox one?
>>273331395Seems to be the Paradox one based on the "Noble Roar" in the title.
>>273329657Maybe, the noble roar is kinda confusing atm
>>273328768>Noble Roar of FlameFingers crossed for the Paradox Entei
>>273330813No, they're definitely going to Johto, all the other signs point towards it.
>>273329260Nope, that the real one:
>>273333641This is the truth.
>>273333740Hot
>>273332857That's definitely what it is.
>>273333641Cute and gay.
Since the title does mention Entei, what if it's both?
>>273336919That'd be an interesting twist.
>>273337423Where is this from?
>>273330963Just wait until tomorrow or next week
