[June 19th] http://www.tv-tokyo.co.jp/anime/pokemon_xy/trailer/ Korrina and Lucario have realized the problem with Lucario's inability to control the powerful Aura it uses after mega evolving. After being given a new trial by Korrina's grandfather, they set off for the Must Mountains together with Ash and friends.

Lucario has a Mega Evolution Battle with Maple's Mawile, but once again Mega Lucario goes on a rampage and ends up easily defeated by Mega Mawile. Defeated, Korrina follows the training regimen she's given by Maple, but the training doesn't seem to have anything to do with Mega Evolution... instead, it's about flower arranging? XY35: The Forest Champion! Enter Hawlucha!! (July 10th)>The "Wrestling Pokémon" Hawlucha makes sure it looks good in battle by specifically opting to use cool moves. Ash really likes this attitude, and decides to train together with it.

>>19650002 Y'know I've seen people say Ash and Serena have zero-chemistry. Why is this? It's not like they don't interact. Do people feel that she's just stands back spilling spaghetti over him so much that she's too nervous to get close to him or something. I'm not really following. Do people feel there needs to be conflict and innocent arguments to make their chemistry better?
I'm not seeing what's so BAD about there interaction. Some people were so happy that she slapped his hand, almost making me feel people need to see conflict in order to have "good chemistry".
If anything I think w/e the problem is, lies more in the fact Serena feels she should be a part of a shojo anime and not Pokemon.

>>19650268 Ash/Misty argued all the time.
Ash/May didn't really have any stand out moments at the same point in the series.
Ash/Dawn did have better chemistry, but that was because she was pretty much a female version of him.
Ash/Iris = "SUCH A KID". I fail to see any good chemistry there.
Serena hasn't done much "Pokemon related" stuff, so I guess people don't feel she can relate enough to him because he's all about the Pokemon and she's all about him, only she doesn't really act on it. And if she does, he doesn't notice.
But I still don't see why some people think they supposedly have "zero chemistry". It's a different dynamic entirely.

>>19650560 It's probably the former. The writers have a girl in love with Ash, and he's always been about the Pokemon battles/training. The fact that Serena doesn't seem to be interested in anything Pokemon related, and only really seems in it for him (as every one of her focus episode ends to being about him), people feel that's not good enough. It really just goes back to what I said earlier, about people feeling her "character type", not fitting the Pokemon Anime-verse.

>>19651763 The earliest it could happen is in August. Fall happens to be the most realistic guess if the Rival Trio and Xernas Arc is a few episodes shorter than the Korrina arc. However, there's also the possibility that we may see another hour long special in celebration of the movie. The pacing kinda makes sense since attaining the first three badges in the game takes a bit of time while the rest of them are attained rather quickly in comparison.
Either way, the Gym battle won't happen during July.

>>19650184 They don't interact enough. Ash has interacted more with the other girls by this point. Her and Ash don't have much in common other than food. Serena just passively stands in the background most of the time and just spills spaghetti. Chemistry can't be built that way. Ash and Dawn, for example, interacted a lot and did a lot of stuff together and that allowed them to bond.
It's not that innocent arguments/conflict = chemistry, but that mutual teasing and light-hearted bickering is a common sign of attraction.
Of course I fully expect the Amourshippers here to insult this rational thinking, because they are under the idea that Ash and Serena have this great friendship just because the writers visually put them next to each other.

So I've been lagging a bit in watching the series. What are some of the best episodes so far? Given the shows' episodic nature, I'd rather not watch every single one if I can help it.
Anonymous
>>19652220 I'll agree with you on Ash and Dawn which is exactly why it continues to be a more popular ship, but D/P was just better all around with doing subplots and whatnot (So far anyway). May and Ash didn't interact very much at all and all the major Advanceshipping happened in the movies. I can remember one major shipping moment in the show itself and that was when Ash clasps his hands on May's shoulders and tells her to get on a boat. Whoop de shit. That was like one hundred something episodes in too, if I remember correctly. Iris and Misty are the aforementioned "all they do is bicker and argue" girls.
The only thing I can say is that she has had less interaction with Ash than Dawn has had by this point, any other girl you'd be flat out wrong.

>>19652220 Considering there are three other characters for her to interact with, she interacts with Ash just fine. It works for the premise of their subplot, she's in love with him but too nervous to tell him but outside of that they are friendly with each other, she rebukes him when necessary (and is the only one in the group to do so) and it's not straining relationship like Ash probably had with Misty and Iris.

>>19652767 All these people complaining about Serena are completely missing what her function in the show is. The show is about having fun. They wanted to have a romance subplot without the drama.
Thus, they have a character that does cute flirty things that can make the audience smile or laugh. There is nothing more to it.
Imagine if when Brock was still around people kept talking about how he's a creepy predator that sets a bad example for boys watching the show, or that he's a bad sign for men because it shows that men that try to get women will fail and thus they shouldn't bother, or some other retarded complaint you could conjure.

His Tailow could tank electric attacks when he tried to catch it and then it became ordinary afterwards, his Snivy wrecked his whole team with attract alone but BW Ash was too retarded to use this in any decent way.

I don't know what the writers have been trying to do. I've been watching the anime since Kanto, and I've been lurking these threads since this arc first aired. I've had a lot of fun with you guys. But I still don't understand. First off they make Ash (&co) visibly taller. You can see this when they stand next to adults, they're not fucking midgets anymore. I just watched the dubbed Trainer Video episode for shits and giggles and realized that they 're not much shorter than the adults. So they made Ash taller, grew his hair out, gave him sideburns, gave him teeth, and made the overall animation quality overall 200x better than Unova. They also make the "eyecandy" venture out on her journey JUST to meet our clueless protag that we've been watching for the past almost two decades. They drop constant hints that Serena is into Ash, most notably in the recent slide picture thing. But I really noticed that the writers were fucking with us today when I watched the trainer video episode. When everyone's drooling over Serena's Fenniken outfit (even Clemont) Ash has a weird blank stare on his face. Not an indifferent stare, not an emotionless stare, but just some sort of weird "I don't know whether I like this, this is new" stare. And at the end of the episode Serena asked Ash if he enjoyed the video and he said it was awesome, she blushed, etc. They're really fucking with us and I know this can only end badly. Ash isn't going to settle down with this qt. Someone else is. Someone fucking gay. Something stupid like Tobias will swoop in and end it. We can only wait for the shitstorm.

It has to end somehow. Serena isn't going to suddenly lose interest. She's going to find someone else or stay with Ash.

>>19652963 The show will have to move on eventually, I doubt they'll add another guy for Serena though, I think they know how much that'd annoy the audience.
There's a couple ways they can do it, a couple have been suggested around here in the past, like maybe Serena wanting to become a strong trainer so she can beat Ash, etc.

>>19653039 The point is that they replace the companions to keep the show fresh, don't be pedantic. They chose to advertise Iris instead in BW which works too, she's still a gen V character. They made an exception that time because the Gen V protagonists were visibly older.
When Gen VI rolled around I guess they just said "fuck it" and de-aged the protagonists so they'd fit in the show.

It was pretty funny when they wanted to advertise BW2 characters by adding the new gym leaders. So I guess in the anime continuity Bianca is at her BW age but Cheren is in his BW2 form from 3 years later or whatever. That's some pime taradox shit.
