I doubt most would considering this a "filler"...

Most would, because of the fact that it IS a filler. Nothing important happened. That's what a filler is. :|

Bianca got an Escavalier, she's also a rival. From what I have seen, any kind of capture for a main character or a rival/recurring character means most people aren't going to see it as a filler.

It doesn't matter in the end, "filler" is a fan term, it's not like such a term should even be used as there's no actual definition for it in terms of shows.

From what I've seen, that only exists for main characters.

This episode was a nice one to come after the last one. I have to say I really enjoyed the Boldore/Crustle tagteam since we need more powerhouse battles outside of gym matches this generation. Boldore looked pretty beast to me and of course the Shell Smash + Rock Wrecker combo owned. Only thing that annoyed me this episode was probably how slow the beginning was...but it made up for it in the end.

You just proved gliscor&yanmega's point.

It was pretty funny when Cilan just got annoyed and curb-stomped them both.

I have to admit I laughed too.

No, I did not.

[CupidKirby]

No, I did not.

gliscor&yanmega said filler is a fanmade term which has a defintion depending on the person using it.

He/she thinks it includes recurring characters. You do not.

It was an enjoyable episode, though I wish the writers would write Bianca abit more consistent. They've shown her as a competent battler in episodes, but then it just seems they do a reset on her and have her act like she doesn't know what she's doing. Also i'm tried of seeing Ash & Cilan do the double battles, i'd like to see Iris compete more especially since she's trying to raise Axew but it just seems the writer's like to relegate her to cheerleader mode.

Well like I mentioned before, Cilan was always the one in this series other than Ash to be more participant. It's to show how bad they messed up the secondary male role(a.k.a Brock) by letting him be on the sidelines most of the time.

I love it anytime Bianca is around, she's a treat. She's like Barry, the episode's always better when she's around (IMO). At least we got to see an honest-to-goodness trade evolution that works like it does in the game in this episode, and not like the (poop)-fest that season eight's "The Evolutionary War" was (where the altered evolution was the very least of the episode's problems). I wonder when we'll get to see escavalier again? Too bad we didn't get to see more of shelmet, it was a cute pokemon.

7/10

I loved this episode. I liked the trade they made and am glad they didn't trade back. It was also nice to see Juniper's dad
