>>14244516Episode 2 completely broke the flow, it was meaningless aside from the megas, and it wasn't a complete standalone experience either.
Episode 1 theme: beginning of the journey, understanding what it means to be a trainer
Episode 2 "theme": Nothing but sad marowak and cubone, a failed way to insert the mega promotion.
Episode 3 theme: What is important, and how it's easy to forget to be true to oneself
Episode 4 theme: The payoff of everything
Ep. 2 just broke the flow of the series. It doesn't stand well on its own, it failed at characterization, it's the point where the logical progression gets severed. Not to mention it was full of bullshit. It ruined the series, from good 6/10 to fundamentally flawed 2.5/10.
