Anne and Amethio will kiss in the next chapter.
Post Licutes please
>>56557736I thought she was going to be evil
>>56557736I'm glad you also appreciate my beautiful wife, but remember she's my property, okay? Just joking, I would never objectify her like that, she's my soul mate after all. I guess you could say she belongs to me and I belong to her, as it should be in a loving marriage like ours.
>>56557810So if you dont objectify her... it's okay if she sleeps with me right?
Someone needs to redraw this with skimpy clothes, heels, fishnets, a few piercings and her tongue out
>>56557814Objectification and having a non-monogamous relationship are completely different things, anon. We aren't into that shit, sorry, but hey, you can jerk off I guess, I can't control your head so have as many fantasies as you want, just remember I'm the one who actually shares life, experience, rings and love with her.

>>56558001Look at that smug face. He knows bitches love him.
>>56557827The sex with Briar must be amazing.
New OP, new happenings. Lucius and Gibeon were once bros happily looking for the next adventure on the horizon. A woman accompanies them while carrying the turtle. The question for this thread is:>Who is she?>Are the colors of her design a Leitmotif towards the shiny Zygarde?
>>56558194>Who is she?Either Gibson or Lucius's girl.
>>56558194>Who is she?Someone they met. She's Probably the original trainer of Terapagos>Are the colors of her design a Leitmotif towards the shiny Zygarde?Might be possible.
>>56558194Yes and Yes

Ash x Dawn
Liko and Roy sex
>Serena -- Strength: Curvy body, honey coloured hair, direct crush on Ash.-- Weakness: Weak mind , submissive doormat personally, poor dynamic with all the characters , bland simp , boring goal > Dawn-- Strength: Best Co- protagonist, strong personality, fun dynamic with Ash and other, strong mind, Piplup.-- Weakness: Blue hair, flat. Which weakness are easy to fix?
>Liko-- Strength: Strongest anipoke protagonst excluding Goh ever-- Weakness: nonea true pokemon master able to catch legendaries
>>56559245Not Mr F here, but a character with no flaws is boring.
>>56559295Doom Guy says hello.Terapagos needs a coldblood flawless killer as their trainer otherwise there's no purpose to humanity.
>>56559295Are you seriously unable to understand a sarcastic shitpost mocking another post?
>>56558536That's not exactly a surprise. She probably said something that caused the two boys to go at each other's throat. I swear to god, don't ever ruin bromance of two male trainers it could come at the cost of lives.
>Dragonite flying by as they travel from Paldea to Kitakami like the loading icon in the gameHeh
I'm not sure if anyone from the old /padt/ era even remembers me by now but I definitely admit that I sorta wanted some admittance that rabid haters can be just as bad as rabid fans, but I did it in the worst way possible. I know I said I'd move on, I just wanted to get this off my chest. I guess it's not healthy for me to keep something like this pent up and I'm certain somebody in post-Ashnime /padt/ has been there at least once. Thank you for your time and have a nice weekend!
>>56558211>Someone they met. She's Probably the original trainer of TerapagosA turtle owned by a woman who is causing trouble and chaos everywhere it goes.Yeah that sounds about right.
Croc and Weedpussy share a single braincell
Cute
>>56559411Ann is not cute.
>>56559428... Is what Sango says.
No team star I sleep
>>56557782LiWhore?
I dont like the anime but I do like that the new thing seems to be game characters coming in and out rather than being constant companions of Ash. The thing I hated the most about the Ash seasons is that as the games became more narrative heavy characters like May were latched onto him, which always ruined their game versions for me. I would have hated to see character like Nemona or Arven become Ash's companion because those are MY friends, not his.
>>56559507This. Very well said. I feel like SV does a lot to make the player feel attached to the characters, so having them be the permanent traveling companions of someone else would be a bit jarring.
>>56559507Yeah Ash ruined almost every character he touched and it's part of why I couldn't keep watching it. Misty and Brock were fine, they were just gym leaders who didn't have a major role in the story. But May, Dawn, etc? I could only watch a couple episodes of AG before needing to drop it. They completely butchered May's personality and lore just to stick her with Ash.
Liko cute desu
>>56559524School Liko
>>56559522>>56559524>>56559525Fucking based sprites, great job to whoever made them.
>>56559516The ones I hated the most were the ones like May where you take one of the player's two choices for a player character, turn her into a character with a set identity, and then lash her to Ash as his hanger-on or love interest. If you don't play as them they're supposed to fill a specific story role, true, but it's very stupid that a character that could possibly be your avatar gets turned into an accessory for him, and the male character just disappears into the ether as a non-entity. Plus, Pokemon hasn't been just for boys since the very beginning, and however you feel about that, you've got to imagine how girls feel having the character that represents themselves made into some guy's cheerleader. And other than characters, there's also the fact that after Gen 1 you couldn't argue Ash was supposed to represent the games' protagonists, but as the games got more and more involved narratives you ended up with Ash just replacing everything the player did. Everything you as the player did wasn't treated as "real" because in the show it all went down differently with the REAL protagonist. Both anime have their problems but the old one was increasingly at odds with what the series became and it probably should have ended far earlier than it did.
>>56559539>Everything you as the player did wasn't treated as "real" because in the show it all went down differently with the REAL protagonist.Nobody considers Ash the "real" protagonist past gen 1.
>>56559516>Yeah Ash ruined almost every character he touchedYou mean improve them unlike me unlike SV characters.Nemona's status as champion tier trainer was glossed over and never touched upon, Penny backstory and even her reasoning for Paldea league was ignored, Arven gets like 5 minutes of screentime. Marnie who had one episode gotten better treatment than entire SV characters on Pokémon 2023.
>>56559548what the fuck are you talking about
>>56559551Just ignore the ESL, only adults are allowed on this website anyway and not manchildren like him
>>56559557
>>56559507>I dont like the anime but I do like that the new thing seems to be game characters coming in and out rather than being constant companions of AshYou mean exactly what past series did but better.Ash only had 2 game character as companion till XY where Clemont's sister join them and SM where he had 5 companion as classmates who received better treatment than SV characters.If we start comparing which series treated game characters better than SV would be at the lowest. Heck Pokémon 2023 pushed three wish fulfilment OC who are so special than game characters that they get third legendary pokémon handed to like Candy, even Ashnime never insulted game characters like this
The faces of success.
>>56559539That's a very good point. I agree with you. I'm glad that Horizons is telling its own original story, as opposed to dragging out the events of the game across a whole TV show.
>>56559564I love Rika so much, I'm glad she's getting so much love.
>>56559564So much lower than Raihan.
>>56559569Raihan was cool. This just proves game characters will always be more popular than anime OCs like Liko and Ash.
>>56559539>where you take one of the player's two choices for a player character, turn her into a character with a set identity, and then lash her to Ash as his hanger-on or love interestDid you ever watch any Pokémon series before or got paid by Shopro to bash past series to promote garbage like Pokémon 2023.None of Ash's female companions were his love interest except Serena and they all received better writing and character than freaking Liko. They all had their own motivation and went to follow their own path instead of clinging into Ash. Unlike Pokémon 2023 that pretty much turn SV characters into tool to pander RVT.
>Toxic Asshfag aggressively throwing a tantrum to derail a thread he hates about things he hates, outright lying about events to start a genwarOh my, why would anyone stay in a place they despise for something they clearly don't like unless they are mentally ill or just want to ruin discussions for others? This is why I started to filter his name, too much toxicity and retardation attached to him.
Ash will never return and the Ashfag in this thread is just tsundere for Horizons because he knows its kino but is too tsun to admit it.He wouldn't still be here and watching Horizons if he actually thought it was bad.
>>56559329Imagine it being Ash's Dragonite going for an excrise.
Watching the latest Likonime episode subbed and I've liked Dot and Croc the most. The latter obviously for thinking with the stomach first, the former for putting everything Friede said about the new upgrades together in the most Dot-like way possible.Liko and Roy kept their usage of moves from the previous arc which is good, as it highlighted the comment that one anon made in the past about Liko's anime:>Likonime continues to deliver or learn desu. And I couldn't agree more with the sentiment.As for >>56558194, I think it's like the a few others have guessed and it's just the lover or just a close friend of Lucius. Her having Terapagos when it was previously within Lucius's possession throught the past scenes makes sense, but the coloring of her outfit being that of the shiny white snake is definitely a interesting choice. My guess is that she was the original trainer of both Terapagos and Zygarde and that something happened to her that caused the two to be split up between Lucius and Gibeon. Terapagos getting angry over Gibeon's name makes more sense as the turtle probably can't stand the name of someone it thought should've been a friend seemingly doing something messed up to both her and Lucius.Liko might meet her great-grandma at the lake but that probably will lead to a somewhat bigger story of the past. Although dipping into the past is a complimentary theme of Scarlet so it make sense, Liko and co are already looking for a lost paradise from the past so encountering someone dead from the past plus the function of the crystal lake is a freebie.
>>56559507Gotta agree. Not only is hz selfcontained but its also doing justice for the canon characters that do appear.I bet if this was still the old anime then Nemona would probably be doing contests.
Liko is sooner or later gonna try to escape from her evolved cat.But little Liko will never escape.

>>56559723I do quite like the way big croc walks around on all fours, it actually made me appreciate the design a bit more

>>56558522What's NOT wrong with the little shit?

One last goodbye to Zorowife...
Foreshadowing, how he turns towards them, as if in opposition?
Liko sleeps with ALL of her Pokémon.
Let there be BLOOD!
Reposted in higher res
>>56559808>DRAIN THE BLOOD OF THE MEN AND DOUSE THEIR WIFES WITH SAID BLOODTerapagos has no fucking chill
Oops, forgot this one. Animalfags are crying. Again and again.
>>56559867Wtf, this is a kids show
>>56559834Probably. At the current rate, working with Liko looks more appealing than with Spinel.
I know what shows up in the ED doesn't exactly mean a whole lot given Koraidon and Miraidon showed up last time and they weren't relevant to the arc at all, but I wonder if that shot of the silhouettes of the Rising Volteccers in what appears to be a younger state before panning up to them as they are now will mean we'll be delving into their pasts more this arc.
>>56559913They did episodes about a younger Friede, Murdock and Orio before, they'd probably hand out episodes to the others to catch up.
Good day my fellow Roy enjoyers here is my contribution to society

>>56559869Conia is weird
>>56559932>>56559934Okay but where is the Liko version?
>>56559834Sandwich and Onigiri are definitely going to turn good at some point, or at the least not straight up bad. It would not be hard for them to befriend Sango if they kust buttered her up a little, she clearly wants friends to battle with
>>56559990Brat is probably gonna have a fieldtrip when she sees Murdock.
>>56559984No one cares about that useless skank
>>56560030>Be Murdock>See pink haired brat splayed on a park bench while walking the streets at night>Help her up and carry her disoriented body to my place>Let her sleep on my bed as I sleep on the couch>Deal with her freak out when she wakes up>Ask her if she's okay>"You don't have to tell me what happened, but you do have to eat this," as I hand her a bowl of eggs>Ask if she needs an airship ride home>Tell her to take care
>>56560089Kek. I remember that one.
>>56559643Liko cute

>>56560425>>>/wsg/5705062
>>56559121Well?
>>56557838I would laugh if that's the case but nah. She had the Zygarde initially. Gibeon's design is more reminiscent of a hisui zoroark
>>56559965So are all cat ladies.
Liko and Roy's mating dance
>>56557819When I first saw this I thought she was sticking out her tongue when she dips down but it's just her hair covering a part of her mouth
Does anyone think MezaMunn is the dumbest person on all of anipoke twitter? This guy is 32 years old and bitches and moans how Ash was treated throughout the anime. Anyone over there knows what I mean.
>>56557747>Anne and Amethio will kiss in the next chapter.On opposite day
>>56557782>Post Licutes pleaseLiShadow assassinating CuteSpinel
Liko in a Explorer uniform is definitely something else.
>>56560645That explains why Liko has a thing for her dad
>>56559881>Animalfags are crying. Again and again.How many losses were there for animalfags by now?
>>56557838> Hey look look, my wish fulfilment OC are so special than everybody that they get third legendary pokémon handed to them like candy .This show how truly garbage Pokémon 2023 is compared to the game and past anime. Third legendary pokémon supposed to be forces of nature too strong for any human to own but now they became free candies for the executive's self insert.At this point the anime was better off with Leon, Cynthia and Steven using Eternatus , Giratina and Deoxys as their ace on Masters Tournament.
>>56559624>Nemona would probably be doing contests>Ash battling, Brock doing...whatever he does and Nemona doing contests on Horizons as the MCsVgh... What could have unironically been...
>>56560807>Liko in a Explorer uniform is definitely something else.Liko wouldn't get a break from Spinel.
>>56559808>What's NOT wrong with the little shit?Liko's genocidal turtle wouldn't kill her. That's something atleast.
>>56559622>My guess is that she was the original trainer of both Terapagos and Zygarde and that something happened to her that caused the two to be split up between Lucius and Gibeon. Terapagos getting angry over Gibeon's name makes more sense as the turtle probably can't stand the name of someone it thought should've been a friend seemingly doing something messed up to both her and Lucius.That's most likely the case, I think the Three of them had a row over the matter of the glittering paradise
>>56560935GRRRR, EXPLORERLIKO
Has Rhydon died yet?
>>56560823Too many to count. Kibbleshit was featured sometimes, but there's been many, many cases where Pokémon were treated like fully intelligent and sapient creatures which they are.Pic rel: one of my favorite examples: common plates with trainers and separate cups.Honestly at this point I could make a compilation out of those. And that's just Horizons. Let's not forget, for example, Oranguru owning a fucking pub and maintaining a berry tree orchard. Or Zoroark maintaining a somewhat functional abandoned Pokémon Center.
>>56560956Soon
>>56560688Can you remove the Roy part please?
>Mega Charizard Y competitively better than Mega Charizard X.>Mega Charizard Y's only two anime appearances involve jobbing in a humiliating way because its not Alain's Mega evolved partner .Unfortunately those people now handling PM2023.
Friede's charizard is strong enough that it doesn't need mega. Unlike certain losers he only needs one gimmick
>>56561048Friede will have Mega Charizard Z to promote PLZA and he'll one shot Gibeon-Greninja in humor and then make out with his curvy blonde girlfriend.
>>56561069I hope Mega Charizard Z uses rapid fire Bullet Punch like Jotaro from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. Only Friede is competent enough to teach pokemon this kind of Bullet Punch.
Is anyone else feeling a bit weird about how Pokeanime has gone full zoomer?
>>56561120HZ is the least zoomer season so far lol. This aint full zoomer. If you want to see full zoomer look at SM.
>>56561048Instead he needs to cheat by using Terastalization in a region where Terastalization not supposed to work.
>>56561191He's smart enough to know how to do that. He's a professor and is competent plus he only needs one gimmick unlike losers who need four.
>>56561213So he just cheats
>>56561230No he just competent .My idea for Friede vs Ash :> Friede terastalize Charizard but it is steel type this time> Ash tells he naganadel to use sludge bomb> but it does nothing because steel is immune to poison> "Charizard Bullet Punch!"> Naganadel is defeated in rapid fire Bullet Punch that attack really fast> "Looks like I win Ash sorry but I do not have time to mentor new trainers"
I hope they get more screentime in this arc
>>56561233>Bullet Punch Charizard
>>56561418Makes more sense than lock on 100000 volt thunderbolt or whirlwind bulbasaur or hitting the ground to break a terrain effect or aiming for the horn or thunder armor or counter shieldplus friede is competent enough for train a pokemon to use a weird move because he is profesor
I love Charizard
>>56557736Does she wear a sleeveless turtleneck under that coat?
>>5655912115 hours have already passed anon
I just noticed that the OP has every Pokémon syncing their moves together with another Pokémon of the same type(execpt Quaxwell and Floragato as they are the only Water and Grass mons).>Capt. Pikachu and Kilowattrel Both are using I assume Thunderbolt, I'm not sure Roy's Kilowattrel learned Thunderbolt yet, this could be a foreshadow?>Tinkatink and HattereneComing in like a pair of Beyblades using Brutal Swing.>Crocalor and CHAAARIZZZAAAARDThe Flamethrower duo>Quaxwell x FloragatoThey aren't the same type and don't have the same moves, but when these two are together it's pretty shippy.
>>56562318>Hattrem
>>56562318That's neat. Coming together as a grown unit. But Liko's hat going off like a spinner is funnyroo
>>56559841>Liko sleeps with ALL of her Pokémon.Good, why keeping them inside Pokeballs?
Explorer Liko...
>>56562268Hey i'm nursing a hangover, you'll get your porn soon
How would Liko react to her Oshi and fated lover/rival hooking up?
>>56559841Man, it's funny how she feels closer with her Pokemon than Ash was with anything aside from his Kanto starters.
>>56562868Polycule.
>>56562889Even his kanto starters were kept at a distance. He never truly addressed the issues Charizard had with him, he never helped Bulbasaur, Squirtle, or Pikachu get over their irrational fear of evolving, and he goes entire years without visiting or even speaking with any of them.I can't imagine Liko doing any of that to her pokemon. Even Floragato's problems were addressed, although one of them remains because Terapagos is a little shit who will always need babysitting no matter what.
Next Nidothing Iono collab when?
>>56559507not going to lie this sounds like autistic self inserting. I've never conflated anime May with game May, they are two separate things.
Is great to see Roy and Mexicroc get consistently stronger.
briar is so sexy
>>56563089Hot.
>>56562889>>56563039She really is and I love it.
Cumethio no...
Does Pokekalos stream the weekly episode anymore or do I need to torrent episodes now? I can't find a site that's up to date anymore.
>>56563157yes that is the entire purpose of the Pokemon games
Um... sorry for the low quality and Idk if anyone remember pic related but I found where I got it from. All I ask is the highest quality version of it. https://themattress.tumblr.com/post/701192018294194176
>>56564255That ratings pic was originally from #pocketmonsters. Sunain probably made it, she was borderline obsessed with the Pokemon anime losing ratings
>>56558194>>56558536>>56559314>turtle ruins everythingCalling it now. I'm not even fucking surprised.
>>56563483You'll have to torrent or use streaming sites. Pokekalos stopped streaming a while back due to getting a job.>>56564342I can't remember: was it she who disliked SM or was that only Adamant?
>>56558194>>56558536>>56564388What's with Pokémon adding NTR into their franchise suddenly
>>56564342>>56564255https://pocketmonsters.net/episodes/ratingsIt was updated a few days ago and made its way here because HZ's been showing up in the Top 10 more frequently than JN did.
>>56564255Nvm, I found it. Thanks anyway. TLDR it's based on interest overall.
>>56564429I can't find a streaming site that has it up to date
>>56564865Bilibili or mov3, anon.
>>56564388He wanted blood and she was trying to hold him back. He now has a kindred soul in Licute. Their reign will be a long, dark one.
>>56564342That's retarded, Pokemon's ratings were dropping at the same rate as all other anime because people just watch less anime live nowadays. Prime time anime pretty much doesn't exist any more, it's all moved to late night or early morning slots now.
>>56565332>Ponytail>Makeup>Earrings>Girly Voice>Name is Tera>Lives in a purse>TroublemakerTurtle is a girl.
>>56565534Don't worry about it. Pretty much anyone who talks about television ratings in the Pokemon fandom doesn't have the capacity to actually interpret them. They see line going down and then doompost.
>>56557736is that a boy or a girl?
>>56565534Sunain was both trying to prove the ratings dropped after Misty left (which is retarded, the ratings were falling due to the fad dying in Johto), and tried to prove ratings dropped again during SM since she hates the art style. She's in her 40's now I believe, one of the oldest people still in the fandom. You can find some old posts of hers on bulbagarden forums where she was raging about Misty leaving when AG was airing. She legitimately thought Misty was going to come back to the show as soon as Hoenn ended (even before the BF arc in 2005)
>>56566888It's ok, she's a woman, you can fap to her in peace
>New OPMassive improvement over the previous one.>New EDAlso a massive improvement.>Amethio giving an earnest smileHe's evolving as a character. All it took was being trapped in an escape room (cave) with his favorite underage girl.

>>56567361Anime Turtle is not game Turtle which game Turtle gender ratios is 50% M/50% F but the female isn't obtainable yet, because it'll most likely be an event to get female Terapagos.Terapagos could be similar to how Serena's Delphox is male in game but female in anime.Terapagos looks feminine to me and I find it ridicules to call something feminine a "he", it's just as bad as calling the feminine starters "he" because of 87% of them are male but they're definitely supposed to be females, and besides most of the cutesy legends/myths are usually the female counterparts to the Edgy ones.
>>56567704>Female Terepagos>Liko's Terapagos Event
>>56567704>and besides most of the cutesy legends/myths are usually the female counterparts to the Edgy ones.I assumed the Oni was the supposed to be cutesy legendary and turtle was the more boy-ish one
>>56567850Is there a rule that there can't be two feminine cutesy legendaries, only the masucline legendaries are allowed to do that?Are we going to believe that Gardevoir looks like a masculine knight?
>>56567704Serena’s Delphox is female in game
>>56558936>Black Nazi>>56559216Enjoy it while it lasts. The Japs and Americans have been going on a War Path.They are even targeting nhentai.
>>56568011
Since Liko brought Terapagos to Kitakami and we'll most likely be going out of order compared to the games, do you think the lake scene will be the first time Liko meets Lucius or will they skip forward to the professor?
>>56568260I think Lucius will appear during the time Paradoxes gets introduced, he'll be Liko's Paradox.
>>56568310I'm expecting her to meet a young Lucius and she tells him about Terapagos and the 6 heroes.
>>56568045>Male DelphoxLet me guess Serena got really disgusting art with her fox like what Juliana/Florian/Liko is getting with the Cat. What is WRONG with people?
>>56569510>Ishihara responsible for Ash's retirement from the animeoh
In early 2022, they decided to end Ash carrer and feature new protagonist Liko and Roy.-Roy is a 12-year old boy from Kanto-Liko is a 13-year old girl from Titán, later confirmed as Paldea-Friede was meant to be in his 20s.-They put Quaxly in the Brave Asagi. They didn’t know who would use it.-The concepts of 6 héroes, Laqua, RVT, Explorers already existed.
>>56569875Basically some loser trying to shove his fanfic on Pokémon because nobody was reading it online.
Meowscarada's wife.
>>56569946my dude, are you living under a rock? a fuckton of confidential files has beem leaked, both for the games and the anime. Mainly concept art, plans and stuff.
>>56569715Isn't Liko's Florgato a girl tho? Also all the art that I've seen of her with Meowscarada is yuri
>>56569510The Chuuni Executive was real?
>>56570035Holy fucking based. All it took was one guy to get Ash gone? Guess Ash had no fans to protect him kek!
>>56570051I looked up Ishihara and Pokemon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsunekazu_IshiharaThis the guy?If true it is as though God himself wanted that jobber gone.
>>56570082>the literal creator of pokemon wanted Ash goneHoly hell, this just proves Ash was a fanfic that ruined the lore all along.
Production info for Horizons and Journeys was a part of the big datamine, dumping all the findsSugimori art of Ash and Goh
>>56570136The Original Six Heroes
>>56570136That's not new
>>56570136Make the fujos happy or sad. How gay did they want them to be?NaruSasu gay?That Neon Green Vamp gay?No 6 Gay
>>56570162rip electric furbait, you will probably never get another chance to shine. Probably the most forgotten mythical in the franchise
May a cutie.
>>56570162Horizons story structure. Pretty accurate.
>>56570162>PachirisuHorizons confirmed for fanfiction and compromised vision>>56570184He was paired with garter belt loli. Surely someone remembers him?
>>56570207>ColumbusNah mistranslation.PC fellas would freak if they saw Spain and Columbus in same sentence
>>56570207Horizons confirmed same universe as Ash
Can we put Pachirisu in next OP?
>>56570229>Ash was planned to returnI wonder if they'll follow through with that now that they know he's the reason the ratings were bad.>past characters are supposed to appear when they visit the appropriate regionsYikes, they might have thrown away that plan. We've already been to Galar and there wasn't a single mention of Ash, not even Koharu or Goh.I guess we'll find out for certain in Kalos. If we get through all of Kalos without hearing about Ash it's fucking over bros lol he aint coming back
>>56570229There’s going to be a Horizons timeskip
>>56570264Serena will probably return....and revealed she hooked up with that Brownie Shauna.
>>56570269>TentativeWhat did I tell you?What did I fucking tell you?Iris is coming back and False Queen is going DOWN!
>>56570269Liko, Roy, and Dot will all have 6 Pokémon eachFriede will betray the group at some point
>>56570269>grown up HZ cast>but they're doing it in the middle of the series instead of only at the endkinda risky, I doubt they'll actually go through with that. They'll push it to the end just in case the aged up versions don't land well with the audience
>>56570310OLM paid $11,000 for the HZ character designs
>>56570269SHE FUCKING WON
>>56570310>Liko was meant to be Elaine>Who is probably 8Now the creeps will act even worse...
>>56570269>Friede betrayalthat's spicy
>>56570269The character returning was obviously scrapped, sad because we will never see Iris interacting with Drayton
>>56570269This is interesting: the whole Terastal debut was pure, undiluted filler. The main quest is obtaining all Six Heroes.
>>56570329Dot wasn’t originally plannedQuaxly was going to be shared by Liko and Roy
>>56570229God dammit. The theory about it being in the same timeline as the game was really cool. Although I suppose this info isn’t final.
>>56570389Chuuni Executive {Ishihara} confirmed for yuribro
>>56570372Was it though? Introduction of Rakurium and Pokemon development/evolutions makes it non-fillery.
>>56570401I mean the whole season was not part of the original narrative structure. For all intents and purposes, we are still at "Chapter 1" (obtaining the Six Heroes).
I will try to whip up a special OP now we know that Chuuni Execis real and who he is.
>>56570269>Freed betrayal>"How about it Liko? Did you realize Friede's contract was open to the highest bidder?"
>>56570450It does make sense. They are hired hands, each one with a seedy past.
>>56570427>>56570401>>56570372Horizons is a pretty much a Treasure Hunt Plot. Find macguffins, find it go to X. Think Jackie Chan Adventures. The old one not the CG.The issue has been that they have decided to stretch this one and only story over three years, when personally I feel we can end it in 52 episodes. Just see how every year of JCA they had a new villain and new macguffins. And because they have stretched it like butter spread too thin over toast they had to add stuff in.
>>56569969I am so glad that Croc final form is not bipedal. At least you weirdos can't think sick shit about Roy and his Pokemon
>>56570523>weirdos can't think sick shit about Roy and his Pokemonthink again
Figured this shot in the opening was just to juxtapose him with the next shot of amethio....Hmmm
>>56570290BASED
>>56570562So what will actually make friede turn traitor?Maybe cap or zard get kidnapped and they threaten to dose them with rakuiam, so he has to obey the explorers?
>>56570488How many many times did you had to get that hammered into your thin skull? It's fucking Pokemon, they never had any problem coming up with ideas to fill up the gaps between, fuck the terastal course of the academy was basically a scenario of if the player had to go through the by Nemona mentioned. It's your own fucking fault for assuming that because you are only using butter instead of other ingredients.
>>56570352>>56570450>>56570562Damn, I knew I had a bad feeling when I saw this shot.Also it always kinda bothered me that Friede doesn't have much of a sparkle in his eyes.Also is the anime gonna be related to the upcoming ZA game?
>>56569993You mean bunch of fanfic a guy wrote and called it a leak.
>>56570622did you see how many files there? how many images, concept art, even fucking receipts they paid for horizons art? pls be for real, thanks.
So like, WHY is Gibeon's Zygarde obeying him? Is he mind-controlling it? Is it all fucked and evil because it's white? Did Gideon just say>dude, all the humans are fucking up the ecosystem, kill them all and you can restore balanceand it believed him?
>>56570641That is just how much the fanfic guy hates Ash. He'd go this far just to make use think Ash isn't coming back even though Ash is in fact coming back and he's coming back next episode it's happening for real this time
>>56570389Thank goodness they decided to add a third character, it would be weird for one of them to have two starters.Besides why they wanted to get rid of the third character in the first place, wasn't it always three protagonists since the beginning, I think Journeys was the only time it was two protagonists (which they later tried to bring a half-baked third character that they didn't even bother to commit progression her and that is why she flopped)?Dot might've not been planned, but she's pretty much has all the qualities of a third protagonist, I'm glad they didn't just left her to rot like they did Chloe/Koharu, also it flows better with a third character using the mon the others didn't choose.
Would you be fine with the time skip?It would be a breath of fresh air considering the Ash Anime never tried it.
>>56570641He's seething because the idea that any officials got sick of repeating the nostalgia is giving him a stroke lmao
>>56570657Well, I mean, when you think about how many times the world has almost come to an end and how many of those times were because of humans...
>>56570669>Would you be fine with the time skip?At the end? I don't mind.
>>56570641>>56567187>GAME FREAK GOT HACKEDYou mean some guy took lot of time to make those files for his fanfic, Game-freak doesn't even have any flies on Ash.
>>56570703so basically Ash not canon at freaking and all and was just a fanfic for the anime
>>56570657Because the executive wanted to make their wish fulfilment OC look cool without giving him an actual personality.
>>56570662>*commit her progression
>>56570229So does that mean this infographic is complete bullshit?
>>56570753Not necessarily.
>>56570722Why so salty? We know nothing about Gibeon's personality or history yet.
There's two terapagos', one in "atlantis", and the other with liko. Rakua was part of paldea in the past.
>>56570757He's jealous that there's another character competent enough to capture a legendary. At this point he'll get mad at anyone who catches one or knows that steel is immune to poison
>>56570753What was leaked is literally a beta concept that got scrapped. Did any of the characters in >>56570229 appeared? Why are we in the fourth chapter by now when that leak says it was supposed to end in the 3rd chapter? They dumped the characters returning
>>56570761YES! I was hoping this would be true.
>>56570778They saw how good Horizons was doing and didn't want the ratings to get worse by bringing back Ash
>>56570761>Two Terapagos>Official conceptWhat a missed opportunity to basically make the likonime the most canon of them all.
>>56570778True.
>>56570803Doesn’t this mean it conflicts with the game even less? By having two Terapagos, it means that the events of both the game and the anime can run parallel to each other with minimal contradictions. At least I’m pretty sure.
>>56570761And here it mentions there are even more terapagos' back on rakua, and how lucius traveled there and brought one back with him, with the main journey of this story is to return this terapagos back home.
>>56570828Correct. Even the game basically implies the existence of multiple Terapagos. Including the fact that it has 50/50 chance of being male or female.
>>56570389>roy wasn't brown in the tentative designKEK
>>56570828Paldea is the region with the paradox theme. Two Terapagos existing despite the POTENTIAL contradictions is literally part of a paradox
>>56570851Exactly. My autism has been satisfied. Interestingly, even though Terapagos has a 50/50 gender ratio, the Terapagos you catch can only be male. This seems to imply that Liko’s Terapagos might be female.
>>56570657>Black Zygarde = Good>White Zygarde = BadYes, White Mons hurt my people..
>>56570885It would be downright insulting to Ash fans if the new male lead was white.
>>56570389Sorry guys had to take a quick Power NapEpisode 1 of Horizons full script https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-7118WhySbl1YAuAChCQq5Wra72Pxlvuj5IH3mXmQvc/editEpisode 2 of Horizons full scripthttps://docs.google.com/file/d/1ngryql_BozAOaXNNo5BvC_xTSqO6-jsy/edit?usp=docslist_api&filetype=msword
>>56570269>>56570229these were beta concepts. while yes, the liko anime DOES take place in the same universe as Ash she will NOT met any of the old cast.The moment she meets Ash or any characters from Ashs anime, even small side characters, it becomes part of "Ashs anime". that's why we have so many OC in HZ. this is likos adventure not Ashs, we will not see him here.
>>56570940the series composition draft in one of the leaks mentions "appearance of Ash, Pikachu and other characters is under consideration", so they probably decided against it.
According to the leaks, one of the reasons why they considered not continuing with Ash/Satoshi was apparently because Rica Matsumoto was considered problematic, and to a lesser degree that she and Ikue Ohtani didn't get along anyway
>>56570940I agree, any part of Ash popping up in Horizon will just make Liko's Adventure a side story.
>>56570940>Calls it beta concepts while arguing that they are used despite the contradictionsBut good job on fueling the ESL's delusion
Oh... now that's a spoiler.
>>56570980Good job biting into my bait which you would have noticed if you paid attention to the phrasing.
>>56571002I'm just here, dude
>>56570970>Even Pikachu's voice actor hates Ashkek
>>56570993It's a beta concept anon. Take everything that is leaked under the current situation of the actual airing anime.Although Friede fucking up to the point of fighting Liko and Roy was actually a discussion topic during the first twelve episodes threads.
>>56570993The best thing about this is Oreo is a 18 years old gunning for a guy in this 20s. What a daring girl.
>>56571046What the fuck, why is she so young. I thought she was in her mid 20s.
>>56570761Rakua was inspired by Atlantis?
>Circumstances of the explorers explained>One's is to save his sick sister with rakium.Ah, I can see that being used for onyx's backstory. Would explain why he's noble but still works for the bad guys.
>>56570269>The word "Paul" in the leaksIs he supposed to appear in Horizons?
>>56571332*Was, anon. He was, but since that didn't happened like in the beta chapter listed, it's clear that it won't happen.
>>56571355I wonder how Paul would even interact with Liko, Roy & Dot. Maybe he will call them "Pathetic" or something like that lol
>>56571332A lot of these are "under consideration". Considering that they have been doing their best to scrap any references to Ash anime, including erasing that Meowth from one of the recent episodes, it seems clear they've decided to keep HZ fresh and separate from the previous series.
>>56571138Oh god. We are gonna get Amethio incest.
>>56571381I don't understand why they had to remove Meowth, it's not like Team Rocket's Meowth is the only Meowth in the universe.
>>56571381"under consideration" my ass, it's a clearcut case of getting dumped concepts when the leak claimed only 3 chapters long and yet here we are going into the 4th chapter.
>people think scrapped ideas for the smime will still happenwhere are the other heroes then?
WTF We Oshi no Ko now?
I'm impressed on how "on track" we are even though this is super early in development.
>>56570136To be honest, Ash's JN white shirt with the Japanese Kanji words written on it looks nicer.
>>56571439There are a lot of changes between the preview and the final episode over the last 27 years, anon. Them removing Pokemon, changing some visuals is nothing new.
>>56571464That last line. Is Friede going to correct Sango?
>>56571490Holy moly yes pls
>>56571523Only a Pikachu Trainer can fix a Pikachu with a bad attitude.But will Sango call Friede 'Daddy?'
>>56571442I'm not sure what you're getting at. Yes, they have obviously changed some stuff around, but a lot of stuff has been clearly kept as detailed in the original concept. We don't know what has been scrapped permanently or not, but claiming this entire document is no longer relevant is very silly.
>>56571543I never said it's silly or irrelevant but with how the anime is already two years in the making out of the average 3 years and how in reality Liko and co only met older Gen characters that never appeared before, it's a close case. Older asshnime characters will not appear, it will enter the average length and they won't compromise to do some half-arsed nostalgia fanservice, Journey honestly made me sick of it with how it got handled.
>>56570993see this is anothing thing i mean here >>56570940we already know freeds backstory and his motivations and while it would be so FUCKING KINO for that to happen its not
>>56571543I'm reading through it now and it's interesting to see the changes and other things that can still be true.Off the top of my head:>Roy is from the orange islands/liko-galar/orio-hoenn/mollie-unova/murdock-sinnoh and dot/the mighty g don't exist>Roy was the main character and the first episode was our episode 4, liko was already on the ship>The pendent form emanated a song and that was meant to connect roy's music theme to liko's story>The first trip to paldea involved liko getting sprig and no arbolivia>Galar was the first lucius mon and it was lapras, this was suggested casually as a possibility in the notes (lapras, maybe?>Lucius mon 2/3 aren't set in stone, but #3 was meant to be captured by the explorers for a few episodes.>Return to paldea around episode 40 was always meant to happen and involve the gyms/schoolAnd that's where we're at now. Next part of the story after paldea 2 was finding the remaining lucius mons/explorers getting more threatening while also learning more about the individual members and why they're doing what they do. The one timeline even mentioned this arc was meant to be released along side the dlc.
>>56570757The good villain are compelling from the start, even Giovanni was more interesting in his first appearance.
>>56571666Dot getting added was one of the best choices ever. Damn I love that hikki
>>56571674I was more interesting in Giovanni than in anything Ash did, and Gibeon is more interesting than both of them.
>>56571666Dot getting added was one of the worst choices ever. Damn I love that shilled hikki
>>56570919TPC’s current take on the anime is to tell more well animated and mature stories that appeal to adults
>>56571816Are there untranslated images? I don't trust Google-translated hiccups
>Masuda officially confirmed Game-freak to have nothing to do with the anime.> Some random nobody claims to hack Game-freak.> Post no information on Pokémon Legends Z-A.> Leak things people already know and seen while making up stories.> Discordfags immediately believes it for attention.Seriously?
>>56571816>something that adults that will want to watchPM2023 is a major improvement in that regard. The ashime was so immature, ungrounded, and directionless that it was unwatchable for me and many others who were mentally above the age of 10.
>>56571951Here's a real leak: ash is retired kek
>>56571962I was thinking about why I feel so excited about Horizons lately and it's the fact it's not just adapting the game, I like the ashime and all, but actually being able to properly speculate about the future and not actually having a general idea of where things are headed because it's not just Scarlet and Violet is great
>>56571962They even make the cutemons look cool now
>In the worst-case scenario, we might even see incidents of arson. These things could escalate.When the higher ups feared the announcement of ash leaving might result in people burning shit to the ground.
>>56572128>the only reason they didn't retire Ash sooner was because they were afraid NEETs would go crazy without their self insertkek. Little did they know nobody actually cared
>>56572128>Asshsperms were so vocal that they actually we're trusted to commit arsonThis is unironically the end for him. Don't fucking try to bite the hand that feeds you, who in their right mind would arson someone over a functional character?
>Shippers ruined any chance of romance happening again
>>56572152damn i want to see friede and orio fuck
So, it's confirmed that Ash was dragging the anime down? Damn, I love the kid because nostalgia, so that's kinda sad.
>>56572217You can't help things sometimes, anon. Sometimes you have to cut the bad roots off to let the tree heal
>>56572152B-but I trough Amourfags were the bad ones.>>56572128I wonder what that ukrainian bitch have to say about all of it, specially the part about Rica being a diva.
>>56572144It happened to Kyoto Animation Studio, also some crazy dude tried to mori the Honkai impact developers with a knife because the developers planned to run a US only event that had the girls in bunny suits.Asian NEETS are psychos, man..
>>56572152When it come to female protagonists people are less rabid about romance.
