>>38760153>The quality of Ash vs. Guzma wasn't that great actuallyIt was the best content I've seen in Pokemon since Ash vs Paul. I wasn't just talking about the animation quality of the battle, I was talking about how well they did the foreshadowing, Guzma's and Plumeria's characters, Ash's rage, the seriousness of Guzma's and Kukui's rivalry, and even the comedy. The Guzzlord episodes and and the Primarina episode were pretty good as well.
>Team Rocket being gone sure you can say that got fixed but they were also gone for most of BWBy Team Rocket being fixed, I meant their characters and episodes. After decades of repetitive bullshit, they finally have a competitive and powerful team, multiple Z-Crystals, strong enough to do well in the league, and they have an actual hilarious and comfy vibe in the anime like they did in OS. If you watched 3 random Team Rocket episodes in a row in XY, you'd see how utterly atrocious and sickening they were last season when in SM, they're considered the favorite characters for many people who watch the series.
