So I guess the guy with the all Eeveelution team is going to win this. I guess that's better than Tobias.

[Shraeder]

Wow, this looks epic. I'm starting to think that the rival Ash beats toward the end will be Bianca or Kotetsu.

[Nacreous]

This is the most unexciting league ever...>.>

Haters gonna hate. Woopers gonna woop.

Hopefully Kotetsu, since nothing will be interesting about Ash battling Bianca again. Hopefully she gets knocked out of the league before they get to the 6vs6's.

Ok, I knew it, at least one of the eevees have Shadow Ball (haven't seen today's episode yet)

And the league looks cool by the way (dat Trip animation)

P.D: By the way a new PWT has been anounced in Japan for B2W2 games, and it says it features teams based on Shootie, Kanyan, Kotetsu and Virgil.

We all know Virgil's team, but maybe for the other 3 we'll get an idea of which mons they're gonna use in the league.

Does anyone here have a full footage of this PWT?

I hope the rivals interact with each other, this is Trip's first time he's not a complete jerk, perfect for some interactions from him with the others. I hope Kotetsu interacts with Stephan and gets his name right...for everyone to get his name wrong and then Kotetsu of all people to get it right...it'll be rather sad but I'd still be amused.

I assume the rival's battles with whoever they are facing will be quick, which I have no problem with, all of them getting an easy win is fine by me.

I hope the rivals get to show off more Pokemon, Kotetsu is using Ferrothorn again so if he battles Ash in 3v3 then I hope it doesn't get used, I'd be fine if it was 6vs6, same with Stephan and Zebstrika.

It's not released until the 3rd so we wont know anything until then, and we may get stuff before it anyways. It doesn't really matter for Trip though since he's only using Serperior, the other Pokemon are probably going to be evolved forms of his other Pokemon.

Really Bel?? You kept Arm Thrust on Emboar?? * Facepalms*.

What's wrong with that?

[1rkhachatryan]

What's wrong with that?

It was shown as useless in the last battle and doesn't even have an animation lol.

[gliscor&yanmega]

I doubt Bianca is thinking about animation...

Also, moves don't always succeed, that doesn't mean they are useless and you should forget them and get a new move.

But it is useless, unless that Watch Hog is really slow I doubt it will work. Also he can't even use it to block attacks like Hariyama does.

How is it useless and what would speed have to do with anything. Moves are situational, their effectiveness depends on the situation. Arm Thrust is a close range move, Emboar gets close enough and it can simply unleash a barrage have hits.

The point is that the move doesn't even really work if you don't have the huge hands to make it look semi decent.

Moves can be used in different ways, you don't need huge hands for the move. Plus, Emboar has big hands anyways.

[RickHoenn]

Nope, he stayed and watched on TV

Why are you always telling lies? -_- He went to the Indigo League and brought Muk with him, he watched along with Delia his battle against Janet and his final battle against Richie, he was in for 4 episodes. Brock, Misty, Oak, Delia and Ash stayed at a league house and they watched the closing ceremony.

Um not really lol.

I knew I remembered that!!! I distinctly remembered Oak being there when Muk was battling.

[gliscor&yanmega]

Um not really lol.

Yes really, they may not be Hariyama big, but that makes no difference.

[RickHoenn]

Wow can't believe the league is finally starting next week after 2 years. Times goes by so fast OMG! I can't wait for this episode, everything looks exciting.

[1rkhachatryan]

But they don't even really do the open palm trusting that we know they usually do.

[RickHoenn]

Yeah! Oak and Delia at least watched live Ash won a league battle.

It is strange Oak arrived after his grandson lost, he didn't even bother to come before Gary's match. xD

[Lee-san]

Hmm, Satoshi vs Shooti in the first round..unless this is some sort of preliminary group stage, that'd mean Shooti will lose in the very first round. Pretty surprising.

Its an elimination round, Shooti is losing in the first round of the preliminaries.

[dman_dustin]

Well at least in terms of animation, the league looks good, I still don't like the league not solely focusing on Ash. It's not like we're going to get 15 episodes of the league, so why screw over Ash's Pokémon for characters we (sorry I meant I) don't give a crap about.

Ash's Pokémon in the league >>>>>>>>>>>>>Anything else.
