Expedition to Onix Island! (748)

[Orton155]

I really enjoyed this episode, especially all the character interations. One I particularly like is the Iris, Dawn relationship which seems to be developing. It appears that Dawn is following Iris slightly but I hope it doesn't develop too much as I fear we would lose some of Dawn's memorable traits. I also enjoyed seeing Onix as we hadn't seen them in a while and the shiny Onix just added to the enjoyment, but for some reason I was hoping that Ash was going to mention the Crystal Onix. Finally, I wasn't expecting Meloetta's forme change into her Pirouette forme but it was great all the same.

Anyway, on to the next one!

Meloetta is totally like a Magical Girl.

O.o OH GAWD. HER SOUL GEM is on her forehead

I shall now call it: The Zombie.

Better hope she doesn't lose her head. Charlotte might see it as a cherry lollipop.

ALL SHE NEEDS IS A PIECE OF CHEESE. She'll be singing Credens Justitiam if she does. XD

This was a decent episode. I liked Oshowott's and Piplup's continued rivalry with each other as well as Dawn and Iris bonding. It was also nice to see so much familiar pokemon.

I have to say, Ash's reaction to a shiny Pokemon isn't like some live reaction shinies on YouTube...

I know the difference between Meloetta's voice in the RAW and dub is very slight, heck almost non-existent, but the fact I can hear that little difference kinda irks me..

When she's singing "le, le, le, le", it just doesn't sound right compared to "re, re, re, re"..

It's not like there is alot of shiny pokemon on this show after all so it would make sense for him to act like that.

Plus, Ash already has a Shiny. So I'm sure his surprise wouldn't be so abstract. :P


Also, I just realized this: In Black/White (games), Iris uses Dawn's line "No Need to Worry!" at N's Castle. Now, Dawn used Iris' anime catchphrase during this episode; "Little Kid". Oh, the foreshadowing, the hilarity, and the insanity.

Ha, I liked this episode, it was interesting to see Dawn and Iris get some time alone together. I especially like Iris's riff on Dawn's famous "No need to worry" line. LOL And it may be my imagination, but I think this was the first time the word "shiny" was actually used on the show. I think they've always used a variation on the term "different color", but never "shiny".

8/10

I liked this episode. It was cool seeing a shiny Onix. My favorite scene was when Kingler grabbed Piplup's head with its claw. It was funny how Dawn and Iris thought common Pokemon were rare ones
