Assuming the next episode ends with the Brave Olivine setting off to the skies once more, I hope we also see Amethio leaving too and setting up his role next arc.

I'm assuming it will be like Zuko's whole "banished prince" arc back in the first season of ATLA, that he'll double down in his pursuit of the Avatar Terapagos in order to regain his honor grandfather's conditional love and acceptance back into the Explorers.

I really hope Hamber secretly assigns Zirc and Onia to accompany him too. Amethio has definitely behaved pretty recklessly before (pursuing Liko into a storm, charging at Rayquaza while on the back of his Corviknight, with it shooting a Dragon Pulse at him, chasing Spinel into a cave despite knowing the guy hates his guts), and it's likely that getting ousted will make him behave more desperately, so I would hope they prevent him from getting in over his head too deeply. Amethio's grunts care about him and made a point of going against orders to help him out, it's time to finally give their dynamic more focus!

Amethio - Pokemon Horizons - Episode 65

[purpleamethy]

Gibeon: Amethio, you must seize Terapagos and Rayquaza and fulfill your duty as heir of my blood.

*sees a video of Amethio being a decent person*

Gibeon: On second thought, fuck you

YOUR HONOR HE'S INNOCENT

[purpleamethy]

You know what? I hope Gibeon's banishing Amethio is more like a way for Gibeon to make his grandson desperate.

A way to erase Amethio's kindness and his intention of playing fair.

I hope he will get to confront Liko again and act ruthless in his plan to catch Terapagos on a desperate attempt to regain his grandfather's trust and not to be like his father.

Let Liko (and maybe Terapagos too) think he was faking to be kind to her and then realise that's something wrong with him, that it's not him and finally help him.

That would be such a great plot!

Some Amethio redraws

Gibeon seems to take betrayal very personally. He even took a dig at Amethio's father, presumably, when he told Amethio "so you were the same, you would stray from the path too...". He seems to hold a lot of bitterness over what happened. Given how he talks about him, it's no wonder that Amethio started seeing his father in a negative light and would say that he is not like him in an attempt to distance himself from him.

I wonder if Amethio's father will show up soon. I still think Crave (Friede's former superior at Exceed) is the only candidate for it from the characters we've seen so far. He showed up in the same episode Gibeon was revealed to be Amethio's grandfather, he seems kind and caring (and apparently, Gibeon doesn't like that), and they made sure to show that he is a married man. So it's either him or a character we haven't met yet. But I think Amethio's father is alive, not only because of the way they talk about him, but also because I think Amethio will mend his relationship with him and he'll have a home to come back to in the end. If Liko, Roy and Dot's families are there for the trio to come back home to, then I think Amethio's situation will be similar (or at least, I hope so).

Going back to Gibeon, I wonder if he perceives whatever happened with Lucius as betrayal, and now casts people away at the slightest hint of what he views as betraying him (Amethio's father, and now Amethio himself...). Gibeon seems affected by "betrayal" and maybe "choosing something/someone over him" from his reactions in the episode... From what has been implied so far, Amethio's father didn't take up Gibeon's will and chose his own path and wants (family, career..). And Amethio's actions in this episode made it look like he "chose" the enemy (Liko) over Gibeon, from his grandfather's perspective.

All of this makes me curious because all the framing around Lucius so far makes it look like Gibeon is the one who did something to betray him, hence why Terapagos seems to have a strong negative reaction to Gibeon's name being mentioned. But now, it also looks like Gibeon is affected by betrayal, potentially for a reason that has roots to the past (and which has been amplified by Amethio's father straying from the path, etc).

Liko's line about hearing people out ("I can see that there is stuff you'll never know if you don't hear people out") might have been the most important line in this episode. She got to talk with Amethio and they both got to hear each other out and understand each other better. And she only had to ask to receive answers. Meanwhile, Gibeon refused to hear Amethio out and shut down the possibility for dialogue. Which means that there is stuff he will never know, because he wasn't willing to hear Amethio out. It makes me wonder if whatever happened between Lucius and Gibeon is a huge misunderstanding that could have been solved if Gibeon was willing to hear the other party out. Like, what if Gibeon is dragging everyone in his messy breakup with Lucius over something that could have been easily avoided and solved, and what if there are huge misconceptions and misunderstandings on his side.

DONT TEXT

[purpleamethy]

It is now very much confirmed the line from Gibeon to Amethio indeed implied Amethio got expelled.

I got told so by @jurikatou earlier that Gibeon not wanting to see Amethio's face any longer is him disowning hiim and meaning the same as expelled. So that's fully written on official twitter post now!

Hope there is no more confusion on that :)
