Last week we had a fun episode where we met some interesting characters, Gligar Man and his daughter Gligirl who live in a mystery city (because they never told us its name) and boy do they love Gligar there. It carried a similar theme as the last few episodes where the party encountered a community where the focus was on a single Pokémon. This episode continues on that theme.
This week, the party encounters what they think is a wild Mareep, only to learn that it is part of a larger Mareep Community. They meet Mary and her little lamb, Fluffy, who takes a liking to Pikachu, as Mareep like to absorb electricity to power themselves up. This also makes their fleece grow larger and more luxurious, making Team Rocket take interest, as the fleece carries a high premium.
Something that this episode brings in a big way is some great battle animations. We see some different moves visualized for the first time, and even see Ash mentoring Mary on battling. It was definitely cool seeing Ash be a coach to a younger Trainer, as it is a great vessel for sharing a lesson about the morality of Pokémon Training.
With Team Rocket swooping in for a heist of Mareep, we see some great battles from their squad. With Pikachu and the group of Mareep combining their electricity for a major strike on Team Rocket, we see them get blasted off with haste! Perhaps this will be the last detour that they need to take before finally arriving at Azalea Town!
