Considering they've barely done that shtick this whole series, it isn't that bad. And at least their stealing Pokemon with a purpose again instead of some retarded Meowth fantasy (no offense intended, just using the word because I fucking hate those things). Beats the heck out of them spending a minute or so an episode preparing for some big caper that that'll be twarted with surprising, almost anti-climactic ease...
.

Why does Ellie's Ampharos need to learn Thunderpunch out of all of the existing Electric-type attacks? It could've learned Electro Ball or Thunderbolt from Ash's Pikachu if it really wanted to help its trainer herd all of the Mareep. It just seems that the writers are shoehorning Iris and her pokemon without a good reason.

Ash did have a whole arc to shine on top of a battle with Cheren, and Pikachu is in every single episode. Dragonite does have the Charizard episode, sure. But Iris hasn't had an episode since BW106, and that was more of Axew's episode. I think giving an episode to Iris or Cilan would be a great idea, since Episode N seems like it will be a big thing for Ash in the long run. Plus ThunderPunch seems like an easy move to work with: you put your electricity into your fist.
Cilan and Stunfisk, on the other hand, really could have used an episode. But I guess it would be hard for Stunfisk to teach a move as opposed to trolling Ampharos and laughing at its misery.

I sure was funner back then, possibly even stupider....

It might be filler, but at least it'll be a FUN filler
Heck, looks like it'll be more entertaining than all the Junior Cup episodes put together (not that that would take much...)!![]()

Pack of Mareep. Wat. They're sheep, therefore they are a flock.

It's okay ValetShipping I still love you too
That Ampharos is kinda how I would imagine myself if I was a Pokemon.....
....god that's depressing...
That aside, it actually looks like a fun ep.

I think this actually maybe a good filler episode.
