psa, just cos there are resources out there for you to make racist, bigoted and nasty mods, doesn't mean you should do it. Stop changing peoples faces, races and sexualities, just how the vanilla base game is there? well just how you don't have to play the game at all if you don't like how the characters look, just say you're a racist and a bigot and be done with it.

Btw I left the comment and 5 minutes it was gone LMAO. I guess I'm banned from their mods for good, how will I cope.

Reactions to Pokemon: Twilight Wings Episode 7!

Final comments are below the cut!

Reactions:

KABU AND EVERYBODY, EVEN OPAL

LOL PIERS JUST BLOCKS THE CAMERA XDDD

JOHN GOT HIS INVITATION!!!!!!! YASSSSSSS

And the Corviknight driver is back!! XD

LEON IS WANDERING IN THE MOUNTAINS OH LOLLLLL

“Chairman, Leon isn’t here yet” Rose: *shrugs.* 

Let’s be honest: Rose PROBABLY knows Leon would be late because of his lacking a general sense of direction, and he knows by now that there’s nothing he can do about it after working with him for about ten years. It’s a bit hilarious when one considers this. XD

OMG LEON AND JOHN ARE BOTH RIDING ON THE CORVIKNIGHT TOGETHER!!! YESSS!!!!

John is literally down there in the stadium with Leon OMG

AND RAIHAN FINALLY SHOWS UP

THE BATTLE

ALSO GLORIA AND VICTOR GET A CAMEO WHAAATTTTT

Final Comments:

1. I LOVED THIS EPISODE.

I loved seeing all the Gym Leaders (including Opal and Raihan, FINALLY) get a chance to appear in this episode. Sure, they were there to talk about Leon, but I do think it shows a contrast between Leon’s public appearance (powerful, determined, undefeatable) versus how John personally gets to know Leon (kind, lost with directions more than literally, gentle, enthusiastic about Pokemon in how he treats the Corviknight and takes Charizard’s health in consideration on the way to his match with Raihan). Though the episode is brief, it does a lot to give some more depth to Leon’s character.

Also, I love the fact that he admits that he oversleeps on top of everyone just being fine with him being late due to being lost. I doubt even a GPS can help him. XD

I ALSO enjoyed Gloria and Victor having a cameo at the very end when they asked the Corviknight driver for a ride. I also just enjoy how said Corviknight driver is the common thread between all of the episodes and characters, and it makes sense: Everyone in Galar uses Corviknight cabs, so having someone who can easily communicate and be connected through so many people be a common character is pretty cool. One could say that the driver is an audience-surrogate sort of character to an extent, as we do see some of the main events unfold when he’s around (example: Hop reuniting with Wooloo, who happened to be in the cab on the way home when the two found each other). I just think that’s super-neat and super-smart to do. The driver is also the only one featured in every single episode, if I’m not mistaken, cementing him further as the common thread in this series. 

2. THE EDITING AND ARTWORK: SUBLIME.

The editing and artwork for this series is amazing, but today’s episode REALLY took the cake. I loved all the scenery when Leon and John were flying to the stadium together, including all the Pokemon passing them by. I also enjoyed the effects and art put into the battle between Leon and Raihan, especially after both of their main Pokemon Dynamaxed. The teams working on this did a really good job, and kudos to them for that and the series as a whole.

3. Is it too much to ask for a season 2 of this? 

I know Pokemon: Twilight Wings is its own series separate from canon, like how Pokemon Generations was (different voice actors, storylines, etc.), but if they ever did a Season 2 or something similar to this, I would LOVE to watch it. It’s been a treat seeing this series, and I would love to see more Pokemon anime in this art style, editing and general direction (various one-shot-esque episodes that can be connected together and  portrayed through an ensemble of characters’ perspectives). Well done!
