It should be Korrina.

>>18912210 I saw this on Serebii and thought it was a good point
In the summary it says Slurpuff is the key to creating PokePuffs. In all shots we've seen of Millefieu, we've only seen here with Slurpuff even though the episode is called Swirlix and Slurpuff.
Since the contest is about PokePuffs and Slurpuff's line for some reason has a connection to it, what are the chances that a Swirlix that smells Serena's Pokepuffs comes, bonds with Serena, helps her win the contest, and then join her?

>>18912030 I can't stand to watch the early seasons because it's too childish. It has been that way for a long time with me. I will grant you that perhaps I should've seen all along that the entire anime is that way more or less. It took BW for me to see that, but also because of it, I can't stand ANYTHING that's childish. I will maintain that I preferred the writing of AG and DP, though. Now, though, XY has not done anything that impressive. But, that mostly may be that after seeing the first gym, I realized that all of this junk is flipping the same and hoping for something I have not seen probably isn't going to happen. With Serena doing nothing, we don't even have the same factor as AG since long droughts of filler cannot be broken by a secondary quest. This was also a point to make, since if having a second quest is the only way they can make things be interesting often enough, then something is wrong. Why do we watch this thing that's essentially one big waiting game for something interesting to happen? I have seen the reasons that most people give for watching this, and it is not why I watch. It has become nothing other than some perverted pedo watch or shipping delusion. The one thing I will credit the original series for is having the most original content, along with Orange. After that, it became just going by the game locations and something rather formulaic happens. I do not believe this makes it better than later story arcs. It might have had better ideas, but they are mired by childish shenanigans. Later arcs are better in tone, but they get all samey and uninspired. I know these two things can easily be melded, but they are not good at doing that consistently. They have to make a plot that lasts for years, and they greatly suffer for it. I don't know why they feel like they have to make the anime last for the whole gen. It may have to do with the marketing department. In a way, I pity the writers of this show.

Why the hell do you care about something you hate? If you don't like how the anime is, brush it off and leave it and focus on something better. It's a fucking kid's show not the child of Code Geass.

I really hope XY stays the way it is and continue to focus on the shit we love, while taking ideas from AG and Sinnoh. AG and Sinnoh were the pinnacle of the series and it honestly seems like XY is like the offspring of the two. Using the good storylines and battles from Sinnoh while also having great character dynamics and relationships (i.e. development) from AG. The writers and the animation crew are really on point, kudos to whoever came up with/animated the Mega Evolution special, that was like watching an enhanced DP episode.

>>18912789 Remember when Paul was first revealed and everyone thought he was Brandon's son but really turned out he wasn't? But then later on in the saga the writers created a beautiful ass background story for Paul, Reji, and Brandon by having Reji's losses against Brandon be the grand catalyst for what caused Paul to be such a dick.
That was top tier writing. Massive amount of cash

I wrote this c/p. It was supposed to be a rant to the people who think the anime has increased or decreased in quality, when really neither is true. I may even be willing to concede that what I think of AG and DP is no longer valid. That is a serious flaw I have, I fail to see the big picture at times. I will also say that this is merely my opinion, and I am aware that I should just not bother. I don't. I stopped caring what the anime does long ago. I fail to see why everyone wants to praise this stuff, though, when I see absolutely nothing. Then again, perhaps I don't want to know.

It's been a long time since I didn't enjoyed the anime... Since DP. BW killed all the things I used to like in the anime with bitch iris and faggot cilan. I was surprised to enjoy the first two episodes of XY when they came out, I didn't expected that much and man... Clemont and Bonnie are so fucking great, best travelling companions so far ! Serena is great too but i'm waiting for her to be more active to really judge her as a character. Really, XY is fucking good. Hype to see the Team Flare plot and most of all the battle Ash VS Clemont.

>>18913067 I think this is the primary flaw. ANYTHING is better than BW. Possibly even the original series. The only reason I put BW above it on a technicality is that there are no BS free badges but one. I probably should've also added the technicality that BW is not just childish, but it's a BS retcon AND childish. That should be worse than just being childish. Anyway, yes, XY is an improvement from this, but that's like saying a rock is better than feces to me. People got hyped way too much over this being an improvement. They did not deliver, there is precisely nothing interesting going at all right now.

Spoilers, Ash gets trashed by a Mega evo. These things never mean anything. What in the world is all this Mega Lucario junk? Who is Gurkinn? I don't care about the movie, and regional bird evo. JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER SAGAS.
The most I see is that Lucario junk, just to know how this is going to treat Mega evos. I imagine it's going to be horrible because it's supposed to be something only a truly skilled trainer can do, and letting Ash have it would be stupid. If they interpret it as less than that, then I fail to see what the point is. Why did they feel the need to give it this much focus, though? I do think it should be significant, but this is sort of overkill.

Hell, if you observe female interactions, it can even be a time of hostility or rivalry masked by friendly touch-feelyness. Barbs can be traded, information bartered...its a weird kind of bonding that serves its purpose well. Men can do many of the above, but as an all encapsulating act, only women generally do it.
As for the other two, that could just be her admiring Zoey's headstrong determination a lot. I dunno. Maybe all girls really are partly lesbian.

>>18913801 Not unless the anime wants them to. This anime is really flipping arbitrary. All of that means flipping nothing if they want him to lose. Also, there is no way Ash is at the level that I imagine this to be possible at. That would mean he is really close to being a master, and there is no way the anime would allow that. (yeah, no, it's not going to happen, you're foolish to even think it is possible) Oh, if he does get it, I'm sure the anime is going to BS it, but I'm also sure they'll BS a reason for him to lose in the end, too. Maybe it could be called character development, and they'll have to pull another Tobias-like screw to counter it, but if Megas are going to be that meaningless, then I will not support it.

BW was only completely awful most of the time, at least Team Rockets plans in the first and second season was really well-done, and I absolutely loved the N arc. Also, I actually kind of like Iris, since she was only annoying as shit whenever she was just around rather than focused on, since the Dragon Master episodes were generally entertaining. I wish we had gotten more actual Pokemon Connoisseur episodes, those were fun as fuck but it only happened like once in a blue moon, since they just fucked around with dumb shit like Detective Connoisseur and alike for no reason. Ash was only terrible until the N arc came around, after that he was pretty in-character. Why the fuck was N so absolutely shit in the games, but was one of the most engaging characters in the anime? They did the same thing with Colress, who had virtually no personality in the game but was actually threatening in the show. The fucking League was shit though, jesus christ. I genuinely enjoyed the Tobias battle in DP, but every singbe League battle in BW was just awful.
Anonymous
>>18915629 I disagree, the anime ruined Colress for me. Colress in the game was this calm but cool scientist that wasn't actually evil but just wanted to advance the strengths of people and Pokemon and the player taught him about bonds which led to him making strong bonds with his Pokemon and bringing out their true strengths. The anime made him into a generic evil scientist who occasionally would fangasm over crazy shit like Meowth talking.

>>18916861 Well, most if not all the people who ship Ash with May/Dawn/Iris are on board the Ash/Serena hype train.
The Pokeshippers, for the most part, seem to be waiting and hoping for something to happen between Serena/Clemont, since there is no Drew in sight as of yet.

>>18916740 There wasn't that much concrete evidence that May like Ash anyway. Not nearly enough to say that Ash/May were seriously going to be a subplot.
Drew came along and it was quickly clear that's were her interest was going to be.
With Dawn, the moment they introduced Kenny, and had him blush over her...plus the childhood friends thing, kinda made it obvious that he was her "intended" love interest, not Ash.
With Serena however, they are strongly showing that she is actually in love with Ash. So, at the very least, if they're not going to go through the her and Ash, having her fall for someone else in the process...I'd hope it have some kind of decent conclusion other than some sudden "Welp Ash doesn't like me the way I like him, so time to move onto Drew (or Clemont since he's the underdog nerd)!".

>>18917763 I think that's just the Pokeshippers being butt-blasted that this time around Pokemon's trying to make a canon pairing that isn't Misty.
To be honest, it felt more that Ash and Misty were siblings back when I watched the OS back when, if anything.

>>18917959 I suppose, but honestly, if that were to happen, I think there'd be an issue with the whole story-telling. The whole nerd and pretty girl thing, I don't know. It's not like Serena ignores him or hates him, so I feel that people are just grasping at straws to justify something that isn't really there.
Sure, it could have probably worked if Ash himself didn't show some interest in Serena back in episode 7. Whether the whole thing goes farther than normal is what's occurring with the episodes.

You'd think him not even using her lure would have said it all...then aagin, with Netflix getting the show finally, I saw a decent revival. And them forgetting the lure could have just been an honest oversight.

That being said, Dawn never blushed over Ash, or got worried about him and other girls. Neither did May.
With every one of Kenny's appearances emphasized that he liked Dawn alot. So really that episode where he battled for her heart, shouldn't have come as a shock.
With Serena, they're playing it up quite a bit that she likes Ash alot. At this point, and this would be the case with any Ash ship...it's on him. And that's where I think the snag is. If he never does return Serena's feelings, then the ship doesn't really stand a chance.
Anonymous
>>18918057 Pretty much.
Although him showing enough interest to actually ask her to join up with him, rather than her forcing her way to join him like pretty much every other girl did, seems like a step up. Now it has to go from there.

>>18918027 What put Clemont/Serena on the radar was pretty much the thing with Limone teasing Clemont about Serena being pretty. But as of now, I think most have accepted there's nothing between the two right now and are just doing headcanon stuff right now.
At this point, I think everyone knows Serena is hung up on Ash. It seems to be an extremely popular pairing, if sites like Pixiv are any indication (it almost has as many total views and fan-arts in 23 episodes as the top Ash hetero pairings that have been around for 6-7 years).

Except change Serena from becoming better than Ash but for her to equal him in a sort of way, trainer maybe or something. Makes it much more poignant that she can walk by his side BECAUSE they are equal, as it implies that if one is better than the other, which currently in this case is Ash as he had more experiences with the world than her, etc, then Serena would be walking behind him. This is what their relationship is currently set-up as, Serena going on a journey because she wants to follow Ash as she had no goal for herself. Yeah, like Guts and Griffith in Berserk, where Guts leave because he wanted to be an equal to Griffith as so he can consider him to be his friend.

>>18919097 I don't think it'll be forgotten about. Thy seem to be bringing it up enough, with her being paranoid about Ash and other girls.
The only problem will be if Ash continues to not pick up on her signals, might cause her to notice other characters, like if Drew redux shows up (or even Clemont). So right now, I think alot of what happens with this ship rest on Ash, and that's not exactly a good thing....
Anonymous
>>18919097 Exactly
Right now she sees herself behind Ash, in his (blissful, at least to her?) shadow. But eventually she realizes that to be someone like Ash, she has to be strong enough so they can walk together. Or rather, I should say she always knew. She remembers their first time after all, obviously.
Hell, she may have already begun down that path. Remember that scene where Ash helped her up? Imo, Serena already did a mirror of that when she came up to him and helped him (spiritually) back up when he was down.
Bonus points if on the night before they part ways, she talks to Delia, who of course always knew she'd come back, since those years ago. So that she can talk to us indirectly and say what she knows she can't say to Ash yet.
