Liko is getting hypnotized AGAIN! It's Momowarou time.
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/2004477286209528317>The Pokémon anime was on a break Friday December 26th. The next episode, episode 123, "Shock and Horrors! Kibikibi Panic on the Ship", will air Friday January 9th 2026. On a certain ship, in the not-too-distant future... people disappear... one by one... Please make sure not to eat any unfamiliar mochi over New Year's... (airdate and airtime may vary depending on region)
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/2008463550130647472>The first Pokémon anime episode of 2026 will be episode 123, "Shock and Horrors! Kibikibi Panic on the Ship", airing Friday January 9th at 6:55pm. A broken plate. An overturned chair. A blackened gratin. "It" is standing there in the dark and eerily silent room. Kibi... Ki... Kibi... (airdate and airtime may vary depending on region)

But it's so cold...">Pokémon Anime Illustrations, Special Edition:>We present Liko, Roy, Dot and Uruto's everyday life with their Pokémon. This installment features Dot and Welkamo. It looks like Welkamo asked Dot for a dance while they were airing the Gurumin costume (by Mojacookie). Next time, on January 14th 2026, we'll present Uruto's everyday life.

https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/2008780651785552377>The Pokémon anime episode airing Friday January 9th is... episode 123, "Shock and Horrors! Kibikibi Panic on the Ship"! A group of adults are closing in on Liko and the others while dancing an uncanny dance and chanting "Kibikibi"...?! There is "something" on the ship...

However, Liko, Roy, Dot and Uruto suddenly notice that not only has the dinner been left unattended in the kitchen, Murdock and the adults are gone as well?! And when they eventually find Orio, she approaches them in a very unusual manner?! Will they be able to escape...?

>>285124164Of Liko? I don't think you've been looking very hard.
>>285124134>>285124223>>285124256They really really want to give kids a hypnosis fetish, don't they?
>>285124312They assume their work on giving them a thigh fetish is already done.
>>285124363And msgk fetish.
DotUlt status?
>>285124436Fuck off already.
>>285124186>I found these weird things in my kitchen I definitely didn't leave there, I should probably eat themMurdock has the IQ of a garden snail
>>285124363You can never have too much thighservice.
>>285124546Or too much brat.

>>285124737>>285124186Truly a mystery.
>>285124737These questions can be fun when the answer is a bit up in the air, but I really don't see the point in just asking things everyone already knows from the preview.
>>285124186>Murdock and the adultsAre they implying Murdock isn't an adult?
>>285124134This episode is going to lead to so much lewd fanart.
>>285124546luciouslikolegs
>>285124546>>285124965Dot is such a lucky girl.
>>285124965>>285124970I'm so jealous.
DotLiko status?
>>285125058Massive amounts of fanart over Christmas, including a new doujin.
>>285125095>R-15How lewd is that?
>>285124058>Liko is getting hypnotized AGAIN!I CANNOT believe they're getting away with it again.
>>285124546>>285124965>>285124996Exclusively for Roy.
>>285125263Roy is a classic pokesexual. He's more interested in FUG than any of the women in his life.
Liko is for DotTaro is for Uruto Orio is for FriedeMolly is for SohdayoRemember these undeniable facts. They will help you in life.
At least this time Liko won't get knotted by an Umbreon.
>want Ogerpon to kill that purple shit>want Liko to remain hypnotizedThis is tough
>>285125384Luckily we don't need any purple shits to hypnotize Liko
>>285125354More Taro and Sohdayo when?
>>285125354Liko is for>Dot>Anne>Masquernya>BrimuonAnd don't forget it.
>>285125502Ok, fair point.Dot is for Nanjamo too.
Roy was a mistake.
Should little girls really be this sexy?
>>285125618They should be required to.
>>285125618She's a teenager anon.
>>285125738Her age has never been mentioned.
Cute and gay
>>285125893Why a flute?
>>285126028https://x.com/eeveekoringo/status/2009111845697917002>This afternoon I saw a comment on my timeline wondering if the fleet feature was ever coming back. I really hope it does, it was really convenient for posting doodles!! (here's a picture of a flute)So just silly fleet -> flute word association.
>less than 12 hours until news (hopefully)Please confirm brat please confirm brat
>>285126204No hypnotized bratAt this point I think Pecharunt should escort itself to the garbage can for betraying all hope I put in it.
>>285126328>No hypnotized bratI'm talking about the next batch of episodes we're getting info on.
>>285124546>>285124965>>285124996>>285125430>Momowarou hypnotizes THIS into doing its bidding
>>285126552Let's be fair, you'd do the same if you had hypnosis powers.
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/2009143033435181213>We present a key frame of Welkamo from episode 123. It grins as it watches the Rising Volt Tacklers dance an uncanny dance?!
>>285126948Oh shit, is it actually evolving here? Or is it a red herring?
>>285126948Wanival time?
>>285126948>123 is a stealth Dot episode >meaning both episodes where Liko gets hypnotized are Dot episodes Interesting.
>>285126983Are they trying to tell us something?
>>285126948>gay duck is into freaky hypnosis shit
>>285124058>hypnotized AGAIN!I am starting to suspect that they are asking for it.
>>285127164I knew that thing was a freak.
Roy is an industry plant. Like, holy shit dude, you see how hard they are trying to push people into liking him.>Let's make him the new leader of the Rising Volteccers>Let's give him Lucario as well>Not only is the Lucario shiny, but it can also mega evolve>Throw Cap in his party too and that should help his popularityLike come on, you he's shit. Given him popular pokemon and popular gimmick isn't going to make us like him overnight.
Gen 10 anime woll have Liko and Roy's kids as the protags.
>>285126363>I'm talking about the next batch of episodes we're getting info on.It will be most likely 3 titles and 2 summaries.
>>285125379Spinel never did that. He's an honorable man who stayed with Liko while she was out of it. Who knows what scumbags could've had their ways with her.
>>285124104Those shots are very questionable.
>>285127432Of course. Have you seen all the Liko thighshots they do?
>>285127926It's hilarious looking at the comments kids that watch the anime send in to Pokedoko. Constant "Liko is cute", "Cap is cool", "I love Nyarote" etc. Never any comments about Roy. After he caught Lucario, there's been a bunch of comments saying they like Roy's Yellow Lucario, but STILL no positive comments about Roy himself.
>>285127979Doubt we'll get a full 3 titles.
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/2009188333071847523>Kibikibi! Kibikibi! Kibikibikibikibikibikibikibikibi
>>285128767Yes, perfect.
>>285128767Dot next?
>>285128767This episode is going to be so good.
>>285124134She's such a happy (hypnotised) cuck.
>>285128826>cuckDot is very accepting of her love though
https://x.com/Pokemon_cojp/status/2009203427872473397>In tomorrow's episode of the Pokémon anime, some shady mochi get discovered on the Brave Asagi...?! Who is controlling Liko and the others and making them dance while chanting "Kibikibi"?! Check out the episode preview on the official Youtube channel!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQR8tqlJzoU
>>285128826she's already in a happy relationship with Roy though?
>>285129181Aw shit here we go.
>>285129193Fuck off already, Royschizo.
>>285129181>the duck is dancing tooHuh, guess it's not evolving after all?
>>285129202I will if you can find a so called LikoDot moment that can top Roy and Liko's love confession.You can't, can you?
>>285129181Spinel would be proud.
>>285129181Welll that's a fest.
>>285129181>Dot is obscuredGay
A date episode would be fun.
>>285128400Pretty understandable, he's so absurdly boring. What the hell were they thinking?
>>285129393Literally just "boys won't watch the show if it has a girl as the mc", so they made a boy character and made sure to shill him as "also an mc" so the boys would watch and realize how good Liko is.
>>285129181I have several questions.The biggest being who designed that Pokemon?
>>285129431Our lord and savior.
>>285129420They should've just ditched Roy and promoted Friede instead, everyone liked him better anyway.
So do you think Welkamo will evolve tomorrow?
>>285129525Maybe in the next arc. Next featured mon is hawlucha joining the team.
>>285129525I did when we got the key frame, but this >>285129181 implies otherwise.
Merry likodotmas!!
>>285130055Cute, sauce?
>>285130273https://x.com/LIKODOTFAN/status/2004327902989767091
>>285129525Doesn't the official anipoke account usually post a tweet recapping the Pokemon's history before the evolution? IIRC they did it for Achigator, Tebrim and Collecurei shortly before their evo episode aired. So if Welkamo is evolving, they'll probably make a brief recap tweet of its history.
>>285130836Sometimes, but it's not a guarantee.
>>285130473>pride flag>48 made up genders>56 made up mental-illnesses>Xim/xer/they/them/der>pro-abortion>supports VenezuelaYikes, why are yurifags like this?
>>285130891>doesn't actually say any of that
>>285130055It's a shame we never get holiday eps anymore.
>>285129475>dialogue actually fits perfectly with >>285129181
Cute and lewd.
>>285132006What would Dot's butt feel like?
>>285132006They are in that age.
>>285129181
>>285132263Damn brat, let's force feed YOU some Binding Mochi.
>>285124058>Liko is getting hypnotized AGAIN!They know their audience
>>285129181The old classic
>>285129181What are they, chicken?
Animedia:>January 16th: No episode>January 23rd: PM2023 124 - Storming Explorers Headquarters!>Having realized that the Six Heroes are being held captive at Explorers Headquarters, Liko and the others launch a rescue operation together with Amethio. The operation is proceeding smoothly as they make their way into the headquarters, but they then suddenly find Rubella and Indi standing in their way! Liko's Carbou and Amethio's Soublades take them on, will they be able to overcome this challenge by working together?!>Screenplay 松澤くれは (Kureha Matsuzawa)>Storyboard 尼野浩正 (Hiromasa Amano)>Episode Director 佐藤道拓 (Michihiro Satō)>Animation Director 松本めぐみ (Megumi Matsumoto)>Animation Director 中矢利子 (Toshiko Nakaya)>January 30th: Details to come>February 6th: TBA
>>285133368Oh shit here we go
>>285133368>Rubella and Indi AGAINBrat fucking where?
>>285133368>January 30th: Details to comeInteresting. Why not just "tba"?
>>285133368Our boi is back!
>>285133368Carbou evolution?
>>285133430Probably wanted to make it clear there's an episode airing that day.
>>285133466Doubtful, it needs an item to evolve, not just exp.
>>285133368About time Amethio returned.
>>285133478Maybe they find the armor right there.
>>285133491For an episode. Then he's dissapear again until the end of the arc.
>>285133502In the hq? During a battle against the villains? That doesn't sound very likely.
Chances of Amethio having assembled 50% Zygarde already?
>>285133467Still weird. They've used TBA for days the calendar has told us will be an episode before.
>>285133368No staff list for 123?
>>285133599Maybe they couldn't finish the episode in time.
>>285133609They sometimes don't include the episode that airs the day the magazine releases, since it's irrelevant info to everyone that don't buy it on that one day.
>>285133559Probably not since he's using Soublades against Rubella and Indi.
>>285133368If they're at Explorers HQ, there's at least a chance of a brat appearance.
>>285133559125 will probably be a battle against the Super Strong Sphered Six Heroes, where Zygarde might join in.
>>285133762I want to believe.
>>285133803Yeah, I think that's it. They're obviously going to battle the Six Heroes again, and that's not happening in the second half of an episode with the summary 124 has.
Welkamo might evolve tomorrow after all then.
>>285130836We might get that recap early tomorrow.
>>285133762She'll probably be in 125, she and Onyx were there for the previous Six Heroes battle.
>>285133368If Liko and Amethio are fighting Rubella and Indi, where are the others?
>>285133894>My big gay duck evolving in a random episode about another Pokemon and not in an episode focused on him
>>285134125Fighting the execs. 125 will be "Hikki and the brat! Dot VS Sango!!" shut up I can dream
>>285134156Pretty sure they know people don't really like it. They're pushing Dekanuchan and Surfugo more now since they're popular.
>>285134181Shizuku...
>>285134205I don't think aside from captures that the popularity is gonna matter in regards to the progress and/or evolution. Croc being the biggest example. Could've stayed the tiny Croc humping everything but it evolved alongside its song and Roy. Which is something I prefer infinitely more.
>>285134272Yeah, and they gave Roy the absolute king of shillmons to make up for the fact that he didn't really have any very popular mons anymore after Hogator evolved.
>>285134357They still gave Croc a meaningful evolution.
>>285134225Shizuku getting a guest role in the anime fucking when? She really deserves one.

Why Roy failed.
>>285134856Otter stronk
>>285134875See >>285129420
>>285134923But it seems that they are actually trying to make Roy more popular.
>>285134923>>285135056Why do you slowpokes loop the same points around Roy from the last threads?
>>285133368And here I thought Amethio is gonna be a rare appearance again.
>>285134856>Otome is on>still no strawberry
>>285135087He's at least getting two episodes in a row this time. Hopefully more.
>>285135156I accept it if Maria shows up. She's just so vague and has that mystique around her.
>>285135167This is a battle against the Explorers, so she's unlikely to be in this one and 125, at least.
We're getting info on 125 from Corocoro next week, right?
>>285135789Most likely.
>>285135789Possibly. Depends on why they're hiding the details on it. Might just be because the summary mentions Wanival or something.
btw for those curious, the reason there's no episode next week is because they're airing another episode of "Top 40 Shocking Moments Caught on Camera Around the World"
Animedia fanart.This month's theme was New Year's. 2026 is the Year of the Horse, of course.
>>285136078
>>285136078Boi!
>>285135995That's kinda fun at least.
>>285136078Kino!
>>285136078Has Animedia ever posted DotLiko?
>>285136078>Liko gushes or gets red over Amethio Why is this a reoccuring theme in Animedia picks whenever they show up?
KIBIKIBIKIBIKIBI
>>285136324Unsure. Probably at some point. >>285136333It's not really.
>>285136367Finally some more hypnosis art.
>>285135861I'm thinking it might namedrop Zygarde in the title, so they don't want to spoil that.
>>285136367KIBI KIBI
>>285136367>>285137308Momowarou is quite the haremchad
>>285137368His harem is missing a brat.
>>285137748Just like this arc.It needs fixing.
Quaxwell dancing not because it’s hypnotized but just because it’s having fun.
Wanival is a horrendously ugly Pokemon and I really wish they didn't see the need to evolve all the starters all the way.
>>285138224Welkamo kinda sucks too. It should've stayed a Kuwassu with Dot using the Dekanuchan line as her main powerhouse mon.
Solo Liko and Dot episode when.
>>285138376>that's what 125 is, which is why they're keeping it a secret
>>285138224Wrong and shit opinion.
>>285138804Gay duck hands typed this.

Oha Suta in 10 minutes, let's see what they have for us.
>>285140671I predict dancing.
>>285140671Here we go then.
>>285140671Mochi, apparently.
>>285124223>>285124256>>285124238
Oha Suta mentioned that Diana has come to give them something. Wonder if that might be the armor for Carbou.
>>285141471I hope it’s cookies.
>>285141471Probably, unless it's Momowarou itself.
>>285141506Mental illness.
Most popular Liko ship?
>>285141471Anything else?
>>285141573DotLiko, of course.
>>285141775They showed a short clip of Dot and Liko finding Orio, which we had screenshots of, but not the full scene. It was something.
>>285141573Liko and fat old men.
>>285141506cutest couple.

>>285144721Nice.
>>285133368Amethio episode? Hes beating the allegations.
>>285145937His appearances are still too uncommon for my liking.
>>285145937Not if he leaves again.
>>285146326He's staying for at least two episodes this time, this is clearly a two parter.
Chances of a new year's trailer at the end of today's episode? Since we didn't get one last time.
>>285147548It's possible, the reason we didn't get one last ep might have just been because they needed to show that Lizardon short.
For a random ronin drawfag: Liko wearing her outfit but wearing a white skirt that's the same length as her shorts. I'm wishing on a star.
>>285147968Fairly sure I've seen at least some art like that.
>>285148812Made for sex.

The shitposter sure is desperate today.

>>285149884Damn, Liko is freaked out there.
>>285149910Gotta protect her girlfriend.
>>285149884Roy and Liko will name their daughter Dot to honor her sacrifice.

>>285149884>>285149910>>285149993Hope this results in some cute DotLiko scenes.
Contemplating on whether or not to backlog today's episode to the one in two weeks because of the break next week.
>>285150435>backlogging THIS >>285124134Anon come on
>>285130836Since we never got a recap, I guess it's not evolving after all then.
>>285150514It's probably evolving in the Nanjamo episode.
>>285136324Today's issue of Newtype included this fanart, does that count as DotLiko?
>>285150799They really should get megas.
>>285149884It IS a stealth Dot episode!
>>285150799Cute
Roy kissing Liko to break her out of her hypnosis.
>>285150799Sure.
>>285150838Sorry, can't do that. It would ruin the chance to make Roy special.
>>285149884>Dot and Welkamo getting separated from the rest>odd focus on Welkamo in the recent promo materialIf this isn't a Welkamo evolution episode, I guess it's just going to be largely Dot focused.
>>285151355>Roy>special Even Mega evolution wise, Uruto does it better.
>>285151376Yeah no. It's special because of his shiny Lucario. He got to to have something to make him cool and like by the kids.
>>>/vp/58815561So, Bulbapedia release the most view character in 2025. If you are wondering why Ash is number 1, Death Battle.

>>285151488>Will Liko and Roy manage to overcome it? I'm gonna guess no >>285129181
>>285151533Yes, Momowarou's hypnosis is very specific since it's caused by eating a type of mochi rather than personal mind control.
On one hand, duck evolving is good for the Pokemon not being bound by their IRL status for progression.On the other hand, fuck the duck is ugly in the final stage.
>>285151521This is what happened last time too, she told them she was coming to see them but didn't explain why until after she had arrived.
>>285151556Dekanuchan is one of the most popular Pokemon st the moment, they gave it to Dot for a reason.
>>285151404They like his Lucario, but they still don't care much about the guy himself >>285128400
>>285151488>6:55How do Japanese broadcast their TV show? Is this after a movie or something?
>>285151580Can't you read? I don't give a crap about their popularity, if it makes sense to evolve them then do it.
>>285151590The music news show Uta no Sunset (song sunset) airs from 5:30 to 5:55pm every Friday, so all the normal shows after that have kinda wonky start and end times.
>>285151684>not wanting hypnoslave LikoYou sound gay
>>285149884
>>285150157Well we surely can't stop at two.
>>285151766Looking forward to the mountain of hypnosis fanart we're going to get the next few days.
Ten minutes until Liko gets mindraped again! Get ready!
>>285151840Oh, I am.
Kono ato sugu
I love the sound of Diana's car
I want that car.
Here comes the horror mood.
Yeah, they're definitely suggesting Momowarou is already Diana's.
Perfect Zygarde being shown right after Masquernya VS Blacky is probably meant to indicate we'll see it during the battle in the upcoming two-parter.
Dot and Liko looking at the moon together...
Wonder if some kids watching this haven't heard of Momowarou yet.
>>285151929
Noo don:t eat them!
>Randou ate them tooWelp, no Mighty G to the rescue
They're all dead. Run, Dot!
KIBIKIBI!
This is amazing.
Holy shit is that Momowarou's voice?
Fucking gay duck isn't taking this seriously at all.
Poor Dot still can't run.
Delicious Liko legs.
This disco music is incredible.
Here's finally Momowarou.
Just get off the ship, Liko.
Let's! Kibikibi!
Seems a salamance is gonna be relevant next week-ish... wonder if they're doing a "knight slaying a dragon" reference with charcadet.
>>285151929>>285151942Cute and gay.
Seems like the anime is gonna treat this Pecharunt as separate from the Kitakami one.
>>285152036The fuck is a pecarunt?
Hypnotized Liko is a miracle
Nice to know none of their Pokemon are actually helpful in a pinch.
Momowarou with Diana!
>>285152036It was missing when they were near the shop where the event started. Could be the same one but instead of it starting the events of Mochi Mayhem, Diana somehow got it on board and now does the Mayhem anime edition.
>all the Pokemon just treat it as a dance party
>>285152053They probably knew it wasn't actually dangerous.
>>285152044Your mom.
>it's literally just the Momotaro storyNice
So did it set off the kill the Onibrat?
Cameo of the Kitakami nurse
Hey, there's the animal trio too. Guess they're going to appear in the anime soon?
Angry Momowarou is too cute.
So I guess Momowarou was the Pokemon she and Hamber were talking about back in The Two Of Us, As Friends.
>>285152105Yep, there's the scene.
>>285152092Would be appropriate if it came with the Ogerpon.
>she didn't give Momowarou sunglassesWhat a cheapass.
Gurenarma time!
Carbou evolution next week then!
It sounded like Gurumin called Metagross the "kickass Pokemon".
Some say the mighty G is still dancing to this very day!
>>285152137"Tetsuashi", "Iron legs"
>>285152149Yeah, I know. Still funny.
ZIR!
Fuck yeah
>Literally just wearing the armor until it evolvesLol
>>285152181Telling each other the moon is beautiful >>285151942
>>285152179Look at that little guy. He's so cool.
Sponsor screen blurb:>Soublades and Carbou fight together! And just then...!!Definitely teasing the evolution.
Good to see amethio is with his goons
Wonder if they'll show Momowarou with Diana in the OP starting next ep.
>>285152229Probably, didn't they add Nemo's Junaiper after it debuted?
>>285152214Zir is a loyal boy.
>>285152214>Taking back lifework of his grampsHe's gotta go all in.

>>285152332>Momowarou was FriedeFug. Imagine if it had been Spinel.
>>285152332Pretty short credits list for a while, usually it's full of randos from China and Korea
>>285152332So does Namikawa voice Metagross or something?
>>285152372The Metagross in the Gurumin segment didn't talk at all, that's why there's no VA listed.Orio's Metagross is voiced by Miyake.
So hamber also has a mow rotom? Well, he is an old man and what's more old-manly then mowing your lawn.
>>285152417>Diana has a washing machine Rotom>Hamber has a mow RotomWhat are they, a domestic rotom pair of trainers?
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/2009572104761700849>Pokémon Anime Highlight:>Kibikibi, kibikibi, kibiiiiiiiiiiii! Captain Pikachu, the Yellow Lucario and Taikaiden are all being treated like servants as well... And the one behind this Kibikibi Panic that overwhelmed the Rising Volt Tacklers was... a Momowarou that Diana got in the Land of Kitakami!
>>285152446Well they WERE playing the part of the old couple from the Momotaro story.
https://x.com/Pokemon_cojp/status/2009573363614630333>In today's episode of the Pokémon anime, we met Momowarou, a Pokémon that can manipulate people and Pokémon using chains! Even Captain Pikachu has fallen under its control, so what will happen now? Check out the official Youtube channel for more details!
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/2009577138639544324>What did you think of Pokémon anime episode 123, "Shock and Horrors! Kibikibi Panic on the Ship"? Diana had been on an adventure with Hamber in the Land of Kitakami, where it seems like Momowarou had superimposed the image of the old man and woman on them... The show will be on a break next week. Check out the story of Momowarou in the Youtube upload!
>>285152576
>>285152588
>>285152602
>>285152576Ooh, so it definitely is the same Momowarou then?
>>285152576The episode was really good, especially the first half. The backstory was fine, but not super interesting.
>>285152576Hey, was this the first appearance of Chadeath in the anime? I don't think we saw it in the Kitakami arc.
>>285152417Yelling at clouds.
https://x.com/anipoke_PR/status/2009580917736783894>Here's a looping gif of the Kibikibi Panic.
>>285152718Nice.
So what rating do you expect for this episode?
>>285152718Yes, perfect.
>>28515273485 maybe. The first part with the actual kibikibi panic was amazing, but the rest was just so-so. But I think the start was strong enough it deserves a high rating.
>>28515275283
>>285151942Welkamo being the annoying third wheel that doesn't get the hint it's time to leave.
>>285152718Not a perfect loop unfortunately.
>>285152576So why is there a break next week?
>>285152846>>285135995
>>285152878Gay. I want my boy.
Chances of brat next week?
>>285152944None.
:O
>>285152944Not impossible, it'd make sense for her to be around for the Six Heroes battle like she was last time. But she probably won't have a huge role.
Cute scared doot
>>285152993Liko will protect her.
>>285152974She'll probably be in episode 125, but I wouldn't really expect her in 124.
Are there no upcoming episode titles?
>>285153070Here's what we have: >>285133368
>>285153084January 30th is confirmed to be an episode from the calendar we got, it's most likely going to be Zygarde helping out against the Six Heroes.
>>285153070>>285153084There's a decent chance we'll get info on the "details to come" episode from Corocoro. That's what happened last time we had a note like that, with the Cap's origin story episode.
>>285153162I really hope so. At least there's precedence.
Protecc
>>285153261And so it begins.
>>285153283STOP THIS! LIKO DOESN'T DESERVE THAT!
Kibi kibi
From Moa
>>285153329
>>285153329>>285153343Why is Momowarou such a bully?
>>285153377He just wants to party, anon.
>>285153343Two americans and a french man.
>>285153390meets one Japanese disco ball.
>>285153390Lusamine is German.
>>285153501Why.
>>285153261>Momowarou is weak to Dark and PsychicCat and Hat are going to dunk it so hard for messing with Liko
>>285153537All the Aether characters have German-deriven names, Lusamine specifically coming from "balsamine"https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/BalsaminengewächseObviously meant to suggest that's where they came from, they're clearly not natives to Alola.
>>285152759Undershot it slightly.
>>285153629I don't know anon. The black french guy has the japanese name "Zakuro" while the actual japanese immigrant has the french name "Mache".
>>285153683I'm pretty sure there's a different reason they named the black guy ZaKURO
>>285153679Hypnosis is STRONK
>>285153679
>>285153704It's because that word has the kanji for "stone" (he's the rock type Gym Leader).
>>285153679>>285153753>first Liko hypnosis episode scores 86.6>second scores 86.0They know what they're doing.
>>285153755The "zaku" in zakuro (pomegranate) is written with the kanji 柘, which contains the "stone" radical, but it doesn't have the stone kanji in itself.Pokemon character names usually have multiple layers to them anyway. A black guy named something-"kuro" is pretty on the nose.
>>285153776Imagine hypnosis DotLiko.
>>285153679>>285153753>fetish episodes score highTake notes, writers
>>285153849Episode 15 was the OG DotLiko episode.
>>285153493Dick goes here.
Kibikibikibi
How many nip kids do you think gained a new fetish today?
>>285154369>Dot being asked if she and Liko are datingCute
>>285154369They are so in love.
>>285154470This needs to happen. Diana needs to bring Momowarou along for an attack on the Explorers.
>nip artists are already making "what if Spinel had caught Momowarou" art/comicsI consider this episode a success.
So is this the same Momowarou from the DLC or another one?
>>285154559Based on >>285152576 it seems to have been the same one.
Everyone joins in!
Starting the year off with some lovely Liko legs.
>>285154861Dot should appreciate Liko's legs.
>>285154894Oh, she does.
Fresh brat
Sango trying to take Liko away from Dot.
>>285155480Time to correct that.
Hi anons, was there anything you wanted translated or clarified from today's episode?
>>285155800What's happening here: >>285151942
>>285124546I haven't watched a single second of the anime but several pictures of her have done the job.sometimes with the brat
>>285155800Was it the same Momowarou as the one from the game?
>>285155819>>285155819They're just waiting for Diana to arrive.>Liko: Isn't Grandma here yet?>Dot: Diana-san had something she wanted to give you, didn't she?>Liko: Yeah.>Dot: I wonder what it is...>Liko: She said I'd find out when we met.
>>285155836Yes, or at least Diana and Hamber assume so. They know the story of the Momowarou from the game, and assume Momowarou is trying to grant their wishes because it thinks they're the old woman and old man it lived with. The reason it attacked the airship was to take it over because it heard Diana complaining about her car being too small to sleep comfortably in and wanted to give her a bigger vehicle.
>>285155821Sounds like it's time to watch it.
>>285156008
>>285155959>The reason it attacked the airship was to take it over because it heard Diana complaining about her car being too small to sleep comfortably in and wanted to give her a bigger vehicle.That's even funnier than "it just wanted to party".
>>285155959>They know the story of the Momowarou from the gameIs that why they showed a shot of its retainers?
>>285156168Make her tits bounce while she's doing that.
>>285156119Yeah, Diana told a very very truncated version of its backstory.>It is said that long long ago, Momowarou wanted more affection from the old man and woman that lovingly raised it, so in order to give them the treasures they desired, it went to the Land of Kitakami with some retainers it had gained through usage of Binding Mochi and caused a lot of trouble by putting the people there under its control.
>>285156274>no mention of Ogerpon at allGayThanks, TLanon.
>>285156302That means Ogerpon is coming eventually!
>>285156419She's with (You) anon.
why are the raws still not on nyaawhere do you guys get raws from
>>285156784? They're out in all the usual places?
>>285156784I just watched it live.
>>285156784They always upload the episode to Youtube right after it airs, you can watch it there with a vpn >>285152576
This week's Nicolive ratings. Pokemon did extremely well, though there's of course not that much competition yet.
>>285157294Damn, so close to 2nd
>>285157294>Laundry on topClearly we need more episodes of Liko doing laundry.
>>285154785>>285154785
>>285153753Why was 110 so badly rated?
>>285157839Very badly animated despite being a dumb battle action episode that never really went anything. I don't remember it super well, but I remember it being bad.
Ahem. Sex with Liko.
>>285158119Dot...
>>285158119Masquernya...
>>285158119Brimuon...
>>285158119Anne...
>>285158119Literally everyone...
>>285154785>>285157690husband!
>>285158455He really should've been in this episode so he could've kibikibi'd too.
>>285158494Momowarou is staying with Diana, so hopefully it gets to hypnotize some more people later.
>>285158610I want to see Nanjamo do the dance.
Just rewatched the episode, didn't catch that Dot yelled at Welkamo to stop fucking around when it suddenly started dancing after Uruto got hypnotized.Dumb duck.
Liko was amazing this episode.
>>285159133How many of these are orgasm faces?
>>285158825Most of the Pokemon were legit enjoying the party, why did Diana have to be such a buzzkill?
>>285159361Old people hate fun.
>>285158610They should've brought it with them to Explorers HQ next episode.
Thoughts on these fags?
>>285159601Spinel offers good employment conditions. Seeing so many flocking to his aid is a testimony of his CEO work
>>285159601Very generic designs, I'm a bit disappointed.
>>285159601I wonder if the lower ranked Explorers actually know they're working for a bad guy. Indi and Rubella are dickish enough they probably know, but the Explorers are supposed to be publicly revered heroes, so you'd think people would want to join them thinking the organization has good intentions.
>>285159685>There might be people trying to break into our HQ for our research material, searching volunteers for overtime hours>Compensation comes in the form of seven additional paid vacation daysSpinel is a man who tip toes around with words.
>>285159601throuple
>>285159736>research materialThat wouldn't be at Explorers HQ. The Explorers are Exceed's stormtroopers, not a research division.
>>285159601The girl is much cuter that Rubella.
>>285159861Most girl are, Rubella is frumpy and ugly.
>>285159736Seven days? Is he going for the boss of the year award?
>>285159829Wish we actually got to see more of that, the only public side of the Explorers they've shown us is corporate bullies Indi and Rubella and idol Sango and Onyx.
>>285159601Feels like they just took Zir and Conia's designs and made them more boring to not overshadow them.
>>285159829Of course not. You act as if a CEO can't lie about something like that.
>>285160006Well, the uniforms are the same, so that makes sense.
>>285160018I assume the Explorers themselves would know there's no research material in the hq.
>>285159985>idol Sango and OnyxWe really need more of thst.
>>285159829Teeechnically the Six Heroes are lab rats used for Super Strong Sphere testing, so it wouldn't be untrue.
>>285160097Episode Brat, telling the story of Sango's idol career.
>>285159278At least 5.
>>285160134Can she sing?
>>285160172Haven't you heard the Pikachu Song?
>>285160134I want this so bad.
>>285160085Sango, Onyx and Agate? Yeah.Newcomers and/or low grunts? Nah.
Did they ever mention what rank Indi and Rubella are? They have different uniforms from the regular grunts, but they don't seem to be execs either.
>>285160162
