After the last few episodes focused on a single Pokémon and a unique city or village themed to that Pokémon, we are excited to give it another go and hope that Azalea Town isn’t too far away. This episode starts like most others, with the party walking through the woods. They hear some noises that turn out to be a very early appearance by Team Rocket, along with an adult Trainer and their Scizor.
With a title like, Wired For Battle, we are hoping in the least, that if we aren’t talking about Gym Battles, that we would at least see some solid battle footage, and this episode does not disappoint. We get to see 2 different Scizors in action, including one of them in an extended battle with Ash’s Heracross. It’s worth noting that we have seen much less of Pikachu lately, and with Charizard still off training, other Pokémon get a chance to shine.
This episode has some great lessons, specifically how the world can be seen through the lens of a computer vs the lens of our own eyes. The episode’s rival, Shingo, is completely enthralled with his laptop, even thinking that battling isn’t necessary since the computer could predict the outcome. Little does he know that Ash isn’t one to follow trends or rules, which makes the finale battle absolutely epic. If you are into seeing some different moves being thrown around, this episode will make you very, very happy.
