ASH AND TRIP'S THIRD BATTLE!
"Lunchtime - or more like Standing Up The Chef Time!"
Score: 6/10

Ash and Iris are screwing around while Cilan makes lunch, when they run into Trip. Trip is using a Vanillite to catch a Palpitoad, but Ash's interference accidentally costs Trip the pokemon - and we also learn that Iris is afraid of ice pokemon, apparently even of the suckiest ones. Be afraid of Weavile, I’ll understand that. But Vanillite is literally a glorified ice cream cone. Ash asks what her deal is, and while explaining that dragon-types are weak to ice, she mentions the Village of Dragons, which impresses Trip.

Assuming that the would-be Dragon Master Iris owns many more pokemon than just Axew, Trip challenges her to a battle. She refuses because she's not in "top form today," obviously not wanting to rely on Excadrill or Emolga, so Ash asks for a battle. Trip refuses, but when Iris calls him a little kid, he accepts. Yeah, show her how mature you are by being taken in by extremely mild insults. Three-on-three battle time, best two out of three.

Trip's Servine versus Ash's Snivy. After a lot of insulting each other, they finally start battling. Servine has "been leveling up" and can now "block status moves," and with the mighty power of cut, defeats Snivy handily.

Trip and Iris mention Alder, the champion of Unova. Ash has never heard of him, however, but Trip’s actually met him. Trip has a flashback to when he met Alder as a kid, narrating to himself because apparently people do that. As a kid, he told Alder that he wanted to defeat him, to which Alder basically said “grow up and try it, lol.”

Trip sends out Timburr, so Ash counters with Oshawott. Oshawott's aqua jet is still inaccurate, but Trip takes a picture of it while it's aqua jetting around - Oshawott keeps closing its eyes while using aqua jet, so that's why it keeps missing. Even Ash seems kind of annoyed at Oshawott about this, but they continue, and Oshawott actually defeats Timburr pretty easily.

Ash sends out Tepig, and Trip Vanillite. Trip then says he's been inspired by Ash's off-the-wall battle style and wants to try it out - after exchanging some hits, both pokemon are exhausted and collapse at the same time, and Trip decides Ash's battle style doesn't work for him. Trip agrees that this was a draw, and walks off. Yep. It was indeed a draw.

Although my write-up of this episode is pretty bland, it actually is a decent episode. I still don’t like Trip, but he at least has a real backstory and motive now. Granted, it’s “I wanna be the very best like no one ever was,” which we’ve rather seen before in the past, and it doesn’t explain why he’s such a dick, but it’s something, which I can appreciate. If there is a problem, it’s that there’s not really a lot left to the imagination with Trip’s battles against Ash. We know how they battle, we know their relative strengths, we know how they interact with each other during battle. Ash has battled Trip three times in like thirty episodes - for comparison, he battled Gary twice and Paul four times over the course of five and four seasons. There’s just nothing left to the imagination with Trip, and to add to that, he doesn’t even come off as that great of a trainer like Paul did, he just comes off as another trainer who’s kind of a dick.

Trip's pretty bad tbqh. He just doesn't carry the obvious threat that Paul did.

I mean he's better than no rival at all (like Hoenn) but...

Maybe if he hadn't come immediately after someone like Paul - who actually had character development and a strong subplot, as well as - more threat and great battle strategy - he wouldn't be so obviously inferior.

The only thing we really know about him is that, sometime between the point where he met Alder, and the beginning of BW, something happened to him that turned him into a scumbag.

FACING FEAR WITH EYES WIDE OPEN!
"Derp."
Score: 4/10

The heroes stop at a lake, and Ash, remembering that Oshawott has trouble opening its eyes while underwater, decides to work on the problem. This means that when the other pokemon are attacked by wild Foongus (the deadliest of all pokemon), Oshwaott is the only pokemon not poisoned.

The only solution is to find a local weed that can be used to cure the poison, and it can only be found in the very small crevices between rocks at the bottom of the lake. Those crevices are too small for a human to enter, so Ash decides to keep his eyes open underwater and guide Oshawott by pulling on its ears… okay…

He and Oshawott start swimming, but another threat lurks: a Palpitoad and some Tympole see him and attack the two for no reason. Oshawott tries to fight back, but without opening its eyes, it's hopeless-- Ash encourages it, however, and finally, Oshawott forces open its eyes and-- the Tympole all swim away rather than fight it. Now that the weeds are unguarded, Ash and Oshawott leave immediately rather than get them.

Palpitoad tells a Stunfisk it’s friends with to attack Ash and Oshawott because they called it Derpfish behind its back, I guess, and Ash goes to Cilan for help. Cilan’s solution? Fish Derpfish up and swing it in the air to distract it while Ash battles Palpitoad.

Oshawott gets its ass kicked, so Ash decides Palpitoad is strong enough to be worth catching. Oshawott still has trouble opening its eyes underwater, but it gets over it and uses aqua jet correctly, and Palpitoad is defeated in one hit. Both Ash and Cilan catch their respective pokemon. Woo. Cilan owns a Derpfish now. Truly, the show is improved by this. By the way, I want to make this clear: Palpitoad and Derpfish are jackasses. I don’t mean they’re cool or anything, I mean that they’re straight-up mean-spirited jerks.

Almost as an afterthought, Ash tells Oshawott to get the weeds, and the pokemon are soon healed.

IRIS AND EXCADRILL AGAINST THE DRAGON BUSTER!
"Derp."
Score: 7/10

The heroes are walking when they meet Georgia, who introduces herself as a Dragon Buster - she specializes in defeating dragon pokemon. I assume her friend is a Ghostbuster HEYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Anyway, she especially specializes in fighting dragon pokemon from the Village of Dragons, all because she was once defeated at that village. Well, how can Iris refuse an awkwardly-inserted rival who was literally in the first frame of the episode and who has a silly motivation? Then we get the opening credits, and then the narrator tells us what happened thirty seconds ago. Thanks, bro. I hate how I forget basic plot points that quickly.

Georgia sends out a Beartic, and Iris counters with Axew. Axew tries its best, but gets its ass demolished. Upon learning Axew was her only dragon, Georgia is about to leave, but Iris offers to make her fight a much stronger non-dragon and taunts her into agreeing. She then sends out Excadrill. Her strategy? Even though Excadrill ignores her, if Beartic attacks, it'll probably get annoyed enough to fight anyway.

It works, but Excadrill completely ignores Iris' orders. It performs well, but still loses to a rock smash. Iris concedes, and Georgia leaves. Iris reveals that Excadrill's first loss was also to a rock smash, and ever since then, Excadrill has been moody and doesn't obey her commands.

Flashback time! Iris in the Village of Dragons. She played with the wild pokemon, but one was kicked out of its home by a Drilbur. Iris attacked it hand-to-hand, but got her ass kicked. She came back several times, each time getting her ass kicked. On her tenth try, she defeated Drilbur by accidentally kicking so that it fell off a cliff, but managed to rescue it, and the two became friends. They battled and became strong, and then the village had a tournament, which Drilbur won and evolved during. Then Drayden appeared, and somehow Iris does not yet know who Drayden is.

Drayden was impressed by Iris learning all of her skills on her own, and she challenged him to a battle for her one hundredth win. Drayden sent out Haxorus, and though Excadrill did its best, Haxorus was just ridiculously out of its league. Drilbur started questioning if it could win, and Iris told it could, only for it to be defeated with ease. After the battle, it clammed up and refused to listen to her anymore. Iris thinks it just can't handle losing, but Cilan says maybe Excadrill has a problem with Iris' strategy - she did, after all, command it during the battle it lost.

That night, Iris sleeps with Excadrill under the stars. She realizes (through the power of monologue) that Excadrill had realized how powerful Haxorus was as soon as the battle began, but Iris completely failed to understand. Iris gives Excadrill a heartfelt speech, and you can tell it's listening because its eyes start watering, which in anime pretty much means the ultimate heartfelt connection has been achieved. Iris mentions that its lack of long range attacks might be a problem, so it gets up and decides to practice focus blast, because a move suited for Alakazam is definitely something Excadrill needs to know. After hours of training, it succeeds.

In the morning, Georgia shows up and steals their breakfast (what a *****), and Iris challenges Beartic to a rematch. Using its new focus blast, Excadrill easily defeats Beartic-- oh wait no it gets hit by ice beam. Iris screams “Excadriiiiiiiiiiiiiill” in a needlessly dramatic way, giving it the strength to continue, and it ties with Beartic. Georgia doesn't care about losing to a non-dragon and leaves, telling Cilan that she'll steal their next breakfast, too.

Okay, so… Solid episode, actually. Georgia annoys me with her silly motivation and newsboy cap (dammit, those are for college girls, you’re like ten years old), but she’s still better than Burgundy, so whatever. I do enjoy how Iris is such a crappy dragon trainer that she needs to use anything except a dragon to overcome her challenges, though. Has Axew ever won a battle except against Scraggy?

My guess is that the semifinal's are Iris vs. Ash, and Trip vs. ???. Ash and Trip advance, and they have their final battle in the Junior Cup. If that happens, I can see Trip defeating Ash, earning his goal of challenging Alder.

WHERE DID YOU GO, AUDINO!
"Ecks dee."
Score: 3/10

The heroes are lost in fog when they see an Audino. Its eyes are half-open and it barely notices them as it wanders into the fog away from them. Immediately after, the fog clears up (by the way, if you think this fog is a plot point, it’s not, it’s never mentioned again), and Officer Jenny and two children named Christy and Doyle appear to arrest them. By the way, I like how Jenny has a police car in the middle of a forest. She lets them go after Cilan tells her he's a gym leader. Officer Jenny tells them that several Audino from a nearby town have disappeared - and when they saw the heroes talking with the dazed pokemon, they assumed they had something to do with it. Wow, what good detective work there, Jenny. I can tell you’re really on top of things.

Doyle's grandfather's Audino has disappeared, and Christy's Audino friend is also gone. Doyle and Christy are huge rivals in the "find the Audino" case - Doyle believes his Solosis and Christy believes her Gothita will be the deciding factor. Just then, Jenny gets a call that the pokemon center's Audino disappeared, because apparently no one thought to post a guard on it. At the pokemon center, Nurse Joy tells Jenny that her Audino is gone. How useful a scene.

The heroes ask to help, and when Jenny agrees that small children are useful in crime investigations, Cilan puts on a deerstalker hat and pulls out a magnifying glass. He will wear the hat for the rest of the episode. I love how Jenny actually tells Cilan all of the facts as if he's a huge help here. Including Nurse Joy's Audino, four pokemon have disappeared. Jenny knows of three more Audino in town, so she wants to split up and guard them all using untrained children instead of other cops. Ash and Doyle go to one Audino, Christy and Iris go to another, and Jenny and Cilan guard the last. Jenny also gives everyone a tracking device to put on the pokemon and a "messaging device" to stay in contact. By the way, the messaging devices will literally never be used.

Soon, all three Audino walk away and meet up, resulting in the heroes all being together again, meaning the past three minutes were completely pointless. Everyone follows the Audino, but the tracking devices suddenly fail. Afraid of losing the Audino even though they are literally twenty feet behind them, Jenny has two of the Audino restrained, but the third rounds a corner into an alley, and they find the tracking device on the ground. By the way, from what we learn later, the Audino losing the tracking device makes no sense.

Cilan decides that whoever is stealing the Audino is using sound waves that humans can't hear using logic so bizarre and shaky that even after having heard it I don’t remember it, so Ash sends out Roggenrola because it’s got good hearing and needs some screen time. The Audino start walking off again, so the heroes follow Roggenrola follow the Audino. The Audino go to a cliff outside town with a ladder up it, and the heroes follow by having Solosis lift them with psychic. The Audino try to stop the heroes again, but Christy's Gothia lifts them across a chasm.

Roggenrola leads the heroes to an abandoned wind farm - we learn that Team Rocket is responsible. They're using a machine that lures Audino and jams tracking devices, built by Doctor Monocle, to steal the Audino to study their ears to build advanced radar. You would think he could more easily buy an Audino legally rather than build a machine like this, but I guess maybe he had a spare one laying around and gave it to Jessie and James. Also: why would he need more than one Audino.

The heroes appear, and Jenny arrests Team Rocket by telling them that they're under arrest. Fortunately, Doyle's Solosis and Christy's Gothita fight Team Rocket's pokemon while Jenny does literally nothing. During the battle, Ash accidentally destroys the Audino capture machine, freeing the pokemon. Team Rocket straps on their jetpacks and escape, and in fairness, Jenny does try to stop them by running at them very slowly and telling them to stop. Christy and Doyle ask Jenny whose pokemon was most helpful, and she tells them Roggenrola.

Fillerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Well if you disagree, then you are wrong Anna. Fennel wanted to learn from Archen, which was the entire point of resurrecting it from the machine. Archen is said to be the ancestor if all modern Flying type pokémon according to Fennel, and yet that Archen did not know how to fly. Through the flight training sequence, Ash's and Iris's pokémon are able to teach Archen to take flight, and thus Fennel observes how the first Flying type pokémon actually took flight in a past-present tense collision extravaganza. In the end, she was fine with letting the Archeops go because she had already learned so much about its diet and the science that allowed it to get off the ground.

Your failure to link these critical concepts explain your poor score for this episode. It's not great, but it deserves at least a 5/10.

So yeah, that was kind of important.
