It's time! This episode is going to be great!

[playerking]

The Episode starts off with the gang departing from the cruise ship.

They meet up with Luke and Zorua.

Cilan is really excited about the Movie Showdown thing.

It's official, Cilan and Luke are complete film fanboys.

An old man shows up, is that Gold?

A woman shows Luke and co. some filming outfits.

Now it's lunch time.

So far the episode has been pretty uneventful...

In fact, it's so boring that Iris and Ash went for a snack...

[lolipiece]

I think Cilan is going to explode one of these days.

That's your opinion.

Not every minute has to be action packed.

Ash sees his first Krookodile.

I think Cilan is going to explode one of these days.

In more ways than one...

Ugh...god...Pignite.

Cilan as a futuristic looking movie villain? I don't like it.

[Aura Flare Riolu]

Yes! Villain Cilan!

[playerking]

Looks like the Leavanny is Luke's.

I love Golett being dressed up.

Iris imagines losing Axew or something.

Now Meloetta debuts.

[Aura Flare Riolu]

Wow! Ash is a natural!

[Locormus]

That's your opinion.

Not ever minute has to be action packed.

Ash sees his first Krookodile.

Oh come on... What I meant is that they were still in the introductory part of the episode.

Now they're filming, there's something going on. There.. This post has been playerking approved.

The shot of the pokemon just happened... And Playerking, of COURSE Leavanny was Luke's...

1. Pikachu
2. Pignite
3. Oshawott
4. Snivy
5. Scraggy
6. Boldore...

Of course Leavanny can't be Ash... The entire discussion was stupid to begin with.

Shooting is underway, but my screen keeps freezing... As for dare da, Tyranitar...

I thought it was funny that Iris didn't know what a Tyranitar is, and then we're meeting a Larvitar in BW2... Hinthint...

[Bisharp]

Cilan looks like Ghetsis by the hair now xD

Holy crap Meloetta and TR!

Dare Da? Tyranitar

[Aura Flare Riolu]

Meloetta sighting!

Who's that Pokemon is Tyranitar! First non-unova Pokemon in Unova Arc.

[HoennDreamer]

Ohkay that was really kool

[playerking]

Dare Da? Tyranitar.

[Locormus]

Dare Da? Tyranitar.

Little bit too late, but the editing part has begun, this episode is REALLY eventful..

The movie has been made and now they're watching it... Krookodile is in a similar movie...

[HoennDreamer]

Omg that soundtrack sounded so nostalgic`for some reason

[Aura Flare Riolu]

Villain Cilan! Man I freaking love it!

[Bisharp]

Since when Zorua [Anime, not Movie] can Talk in Best Wishes after transformation? How comes?? >:O

Yeah, of course, NOW!

That discussion, even though I don't know what you mean, wasn't stupid.

It could of been Ash's and Ash could of done a Pokemon transfer. But since Leavanny and then Pignite appeared and Leavanny appeared again, it can't of been Ash's unless Luke returned his to his Pokeball. Either way, we know it's Luke's NOW.

Do I effing care if it's too late or not? No. So shut up and stop being critical.

Golett evolved, or was that just apart of the movie? Not sure, a bit confused right now.

[Locormus]

Omg, this episode just turned out boring, and boring, and boring, and now Golett is evolving like expected.

Edit: Playerking, I noted that it probably wasn't going to be Ash's like five days ago.. The movieshooting part was going to be short, and that scene probably just even shorter... So Ash depositing Pignite for such a short while, while Pignite is probably the mainstar in the movie besides Ash, then yeah.. That does make you think when another character has a perfectly fine Leavanny with him as well... It's just that people felt like they had to take the hard route to explain this perfectly simple 'problem'... and that's just stupid in my opinion.

Edit: Since Playerking said that I should stop being critical, this episode turned from a bore fest to an amazing, spectacle filled episode which I give an A+++++++++

Best episode from Best Wishes season 1. Nothing can top this ever, this was just so unexpectedly great. Incredible.

What the hell.. Golett is back? Thank god for editing purposes, but it kinda ruined the vibe for me...

Everybody of course likes the movie...

Edit: @Bisharp: They could have Iris talk in the words in the editing progress, and overdubbed the part where you could hear two voices.

Yay, Meloetta is following them. B2W2 preview..
