Diana mentioning in HZ024 that the records she found were written by Lucius and his friends on their journeys.
Which means that considering that Lucius is shown together with Gibeon and another person in the fourth opening, Gibeon is probably one of those friends who helped him write them.
#as an addendum to my post from yesterday where i wondered if gibeon might have helped lucius write his memoirs#checked back diana's flashback to see if she mentioned anything about it and she did#lucius wasn't the only one involved in writing them so gibeon likely helped#it's cute imagining gibeon diligently recording their journeys#writing everything down and being serious about it.. etc#diana#lucius#gibeon#hz024#character notes#episode notes

So much of the dialogue was hard for me to understand so, I need subtitles or lurk around to see what was up lol.

Onyx deserves more love ngl,, I can't wait literally for him,
Ngl I'm actually kinda annoyed that his main pokemon isn't an Obstagoon... he looks like an obstagoon... but stats wise, Garganacl makes perfect sense,,
I don't have his gamer posture because I drew this before I watched HZ024 (it took me so long to find- I had to ask someone who watched it before me where they watched it)
#I love him so much#Ngl I headcannon him as a gym bro#He looks like he's physically strong#I forgot his gamer posture#tbf I drew this after I watched HZ024#So you can't blame me#Onyx#Pokemon Onyx#Anipoke Onyx#onyx anipoke explorer#Anipoke fanart#Fanart#Pokemon fanart#Pkmn fanart#fanart on tumblr#Fanartist#Pokemon New Horizons fanart#Pokemon HZ#Pokemon New Horizions

Silly Little Summaries HZ021-HZ025
Seems this time around we got two different two-parters: one that's really good and one that kinda missed the mark a little. Oh well. No one is flawless. Anyway, on to the "reviews":
HZ021: Baby Hat is big sad but she likes hoods
Alternate Title: Now all Cat Girl needs is a belt.
HZ022: Gasp. Mr. Doctor Professor and Tofu are stuck in the mine. How will we save them?
Alternate Title: The Open Sky Titan looks different from the games
HZ023: Oh, they got out before the theme song…”I’m riding the heart-pound-ifying currents…”
Alternate Title: Open Sky Titan capture + Tortellini awakens
HZ024: In-Diana is kinda badass for a grandma + Tofu attacks
HZ025: Kovu and Kiara are evil and blow some stuff up + Tofu gets his ass beat. Good for him.
Alternate Title: Why is Kovu so pretty…that sounded wrong
Alternate Title: Tofu gets his ass beat by Mr. Doctor Professor. Good for him.

Amethio's scene with Hamber really displayed interesting aspects to their dynamics in this episode. Hamber didn't seem surprised that Amethio kept operating on his own, and it almost seemed like Amethio was the one having the upper hand during their conversation as he was demanding to know things (asking about Terapagos as his early mission was just to retrieve a pendant, which now turned into a Pokemon, so he wanted to know more about it), being the one to provide information (telling Hamber about where the Rising Volt Tacklers were headed and showing him footage of Terapagos), and getting Hamber's approval to continue acting on his own (by making a point to show that he knows where Liko and the others are headed so it would be a shame if he were to be removed from the mission).
Amethio even cut off Hamber as he was trying to warn him about reporting before taking action and hung up on him as he had enough of his complaints! (They really conveyed well Amethio's rebellious streak w) So, Amethio is in a position that allows him to talk back to Hamber and be stubborn and get away with it (despite being younger and probably not on the same level as Hamber in the hierarchy), since Hamber was mostly nice in his warnings and didn't really scold him. And Hamber is perfectly capable of showing displeasure towards others when they are being disrespectful or protesting orders as he called out Sango and Onyx when they were complaining about having to work together. So the fact that he is letting things slide with Amethio is interesting... I feel like it gives more weight to the idea that Amethio might be related to Gibeon somehow. Amethio seems to operate differently from the others so far and can contact Hamber directly as well.
Either way, it's interesting. Amethio only seems to behave when it comes to Gibeon as he seems more controlled around him and doesn't protest his decisions, but he talks back with others and challenges them (Spinel and Hamber, for example). Despite that, he is genuinely benevolent towards Zir and Conia and thanks them for their work. He thanked them again in this episode, even though they lost track of Liko and the others, and encouraged them to look again and joined the search too. He doesn't blame them. I like their relationship and I wonder how they came to work with him in the first place.

Terapagos seemed to react specifically to Amethio as if it was sensing something from him or recognized him somehow and tried to get closer to him. It reminded me of the scene in HZ006 when Liko caught Rayquaza's attention and upon seeing her, it flew away. Rayquaza also seemed to sense something from Liko, similarly to Terapagos with Amethio.
Anyway, this scene raises questions about Amethio and his relationship to Terapagos and its mystery. Maybe he is tied to Lucius somehow? We don't know if the pendant ever activated its powers when Diana had it when she traveled (though I tend to think that it didn't, or she would have thought something was off about it so maybe she just called it as protective charm when she gave it to Liko because she felt it was guiding and protecting her during her journeys and hoped it would be the same for Liko).
This makes me wonder if both Liko and Amethio were the key to awakening Terapagos? After all, everything started with their meeting. The pendant's power activated when Soulblades' attack missed Lizardon and almost hit Liko, and Terapagos showed itself for the first time then. So, both Liko and Amethio were in the same vicinity at that time. We got to see the protective barrier and Rayquaza awakening and coming out of the Ancient Pokeball in HZ006 and again, both Liko and Amethio were there.
Terapagos showed up briefly in HZ012 when Oliva's forest was saved but then went back to being a pendant after showing Liko and Roy a vision of Lucius. The pendant also activated (but there was no protective barrier) and Oliva was summoned in HZ016 to help Liko against Spinel. So, Amethio wasn't there in these two instances. But after that, he was there when Galar Fire was rampaging and witnessed the pendant turning into Terapagos (and remaining in that form). Nothing is certain as of now, but it's curious. Amethio apparently has some connection to Terapagos and doesn't seem to realize it himself. Meanwhile, Liko also caught the attention of the Six Heroes (starting with Rayquaza), and as she meets them and gets to know them and help them, they seem to acknowledge her (Oliva and Galar Fire).

Some character notes and episode notes for HZ024, writing them down for future reference.
I wrote about Amethio and Terapagos here, and Amethio and Hamber here.
Nyahoja sulking and being jealous of Liko's attention being on Mibrim and Terapagos was cute, I like how it's just really a cat and how Liko was speaking gently and trying to get Nyahoja to follow her to introduce it to her grandma. While Nyahoja was the one who encouraged Mibrim to join Liko because both of them were too shy to make the first move (so it wasn't opposed to a new Pokemon befriending them), it's understandably probably overwhelmed at seeing a new Pokemon joining Liko soon after Mibrim joined them. Nyahoja probably thinks it's being replaced. Also, I just like how Liko carries all her Pokemon around with her and doesn't make them go inside their Pokeballs. It makes the world feel much more alive and I just enjoy seeing Pokemon as part of the world in mundane ways!
Seeing more of the Explorers is always good. It seems like Spinel and Agate are working together in a lab, which is interesting to know. Perhaps they are investigating more of the pendant's properties? We haven't seen the Explorers working with others much, except for Amethio (who works with Zir and Conia) and when Spinel was introduced, he was operating alone and seems like the type who handles things better when he is alone. So I wonder how he acts when he has to work with someone else. I do hope we'll get to see more of Spinel and Agate eventually. Spinel was already analyzing the pendant in HZ015, and Agate was the one asking him more about it in HZ016 during the Explorers meeting so she was already showing interest in the research side of things before.
Sango and Onyx argue with each other. It seems like no one in the Explorers is giving each other a break ww They quickly stop protesting once Hamber calls them out, so it seems like they respect his authority. It's also cool seeing them both around with their partners Pokemon! Again, it makes the world feel much more alive and it shows their bond with them too.
Liko and the others took the train to go to Knuckle City. It's kind of fun that Friede was the one sleeping during the ride, while Liko and Roy didn't.
Liko talks about her grandmother while they're all taking a secret passage to go to the castle. She explains that the last time she saw her was a year before the current events when she was accepted into Sekiei Academy. Her grandmother gave her the pendant as a good-luck charm then. So Liko had the pendant for a year at this point. Liko looks up to her grandmother and thinks she is cool and explains that she is always traveling with Pokemon, looking for ancient ruins and sunken ships and other things like that.
I liked Diana's description of Liko, telling Nyahoja that Liko can be more stubborn than she looks and that she is kind. I hope we'll get to see more of Liko's stubborn aspects! Nyahoja was wary and tried to scratch Diana though. Also, it's kind of interesting that Diana's main partner seems to be Windie (a dog), while Liko's partner is Nyahoja (a cat).
Lots of Pokemon live in the castle with Diana. They are wild Pokemon for the most part and can choose to leave if they want to, or stay if they like it there. Friede points out that it's like the Brave Asagi. I like that we've seen several instances of Pokemon who live with humans who aren't necessarily their trainers. Roy's island was like that, the Brave Asagi is too, and now Diana's castle. Diana lives a carefree life by herself and her Pokemon.
Diana apologizes for getting Liko caught up in the Explorers business. We get more clarification about the timeline. Diana was approached by the Explorers a few months before the beginning of the series, so she didn't know Liko would be in trouble when she gave her the pendant. She immediately contacted Lucca who then hired the Rising Volt Tacklers to protect Liko.
Liko explains that the pendant turned into a Pokemon and Diana recognizes it as Terapagos. Diana never realized that it was sleeping all this time in the pendant. She mentions Lucius's records and how Terapagos looks different from what she saw there. She also explains that Terapagos traveled with Lucius.
Diana liking canned food because it's practical and there are no plates to wash afterwards... liking the way she lives!
Either way, Diana tells her story. She found the pendant and records written by Lucius in an old suitcase in her attic when she was a kid. She wondered if the records were true and who Lucius really was and she set off on a journey to find out more about it. She looked all over the world and investigated but didn't find anything. She gave up thirty years before the story started. However, despite admitting that she gave up, she doesn't regret anything. She became the adventurer she is today thanks to the pendant and Lucius's story, and found a true passion in it. After all, she is still traveling now and enjoys adventures as much as when she started.
Diana mentions that she was contacted by an old friend a few months before the current events. Her old friend being Hamber. This is really interesting to me. How long have they been friends? (perhaps they were exes ww) I hope we get to see more of their bond. Apparently, Hamber wanted to introduce her to someone who could aid her in her adventures (certainly Gibeon), so it seems to imply that Diana has quite a reputation as an adventurer? Since Gibeon would have probably known that she had the pendant and that she was looking to solve its mystery? The Explorers had to know on some level that Diana is an adventurer and investigated a lot of things related to the pendant.
Terapagos reacts to the mention of "Rakua" and Diana explains that it's the paradise Lucius sought.
I am not sure if Liko is a descendant to Lucius at the moment. Diana's family having the pendant and records in their attic could be a case similar to Mohn in Sun and Moon when he found Magearna in a shop and decided to take her back home. So maybe Diana's family randomly found the pendant somewhere (in a shop or something) and just took it. It's a possibility and I'm waiting for a confirmation. Diana had the pendant during decades and Terapagos remained dormant. Though Liko had it for a year and a lot of things happened since Terapagos awakened and the Six Heroes are showing up one after the other, and the pendant resonates in her presence.
Terapagos feeling a strong surge of emotions upon seeing Amethio is a Mood. Just like me fr.
Amethio ends up casually intruding in the castle. He intruded in the Brave Asagi in HZ002 so it's interesting that he is doing the same kind of thing for the climax, especially since the castle has been paralleled with the Brave Asagi (both being similar since a lot of wild Pokemon live there). I already wrote about Terapagos's reaction to Amethio but it was really curious and I hope we'll know a bit more about it next week. Mibrim conveyed how strong Terapagos's reactions were since she got excited, ran around and fell down because of the surge of emotions Terapagos was expressing. Amethio is definitely more involved than initially thought in this mystery.
Overall, this was great. I absolutely love Diana, especially as an older woman character. She is bold, curious, adventurous, fun and just cool! I like how carefree she is and the way she enjoys life and adventure. No wonder Liko looks up to her so much. I do hope she'll get to know more about Terapagos and Rakua because she spent so many years traveling in order to know more but didn't really find anything so I hope Liko will be able to tell her about these things, just like how her grandmother's stories inspired her. Her grandmother inspiring her and Liko giving back in her own way would be great to see.

Onyx who wants to keep up the facade and insists on calling Sango "Sandwich" (and being very bad at lying because he is too straightforward and honest for that, it's not something that comes naturally to him), and Sango humoring him and going along with what he wants and calling him "Onigiri-kun" in turn... her little smile at the end too, probably the most genuine smile we got out of Sango (she is teasing him and she knows it).
#man the way she said 'onigiri-kun' sounded so fond??#she probably thinks it's funny but still goes along with him#they are so good..#also it's cute how onyx probably told her to keep quiet because he wanted to listen to the teacher#and probably thinks it's rude to interrupt or talk over someone. he is very polite#(meanwhile amethio had no problem talking over hamber and interrupting him back in hz024 ww)#onyx#pokemon onyx#sango#hz057#character notes#episode notes

Something kind of interesting about the Explorers duos is that their main Pokemon's types say something about the dynamics in question.
For example, Conia's main Pokemon (Golduck) is Water type and has the advantage over Zir's Sidon (who is both Ground and Rock type). I feel like it shows that Conia is usually the more professional of the two in a work setting (Zir watched a Gurumin video while waiting for Amethio back in HZ027, while Conia waited in silence and had a "proper" posture etc).
Onyx's main Pokemon being Rock type means he has the advantage over Sango's Onigohri (Ice type). Which, in a way, shows that he is usually the more levelheaded of the two and thinks more clearly (while Sango tends to snap and lose her temper quickly). So he can be someone who covers for her.
Agate is an interesting case because she is the only admin other than Amethio whose main Pokemon is dual type (Charem being both Fighting and Psychic type). Which is fun to think about in contrast to Spinel's Blacky (Dark type), because Fighting has the advantage over Dark, while Psychic is weak to Dark. I feel like it illustrates Spinel and Agate's dynamics quite well in a way, since Spinel often holds information back from her or the others and she knows him well enough to know that he is never being fully honest, so she tries to get the truth out of him, but he retreats back when she tries to pry, etc. On top of that, Agate's Explorers outfit might indicate that she has two other Pokemon that we don't know of (since she has three Pokeball on her), which means she could potentially have three Pokemon in her team, similarly to Spinel. Maybe her and Spinel's teams are meant to complement each other's.
Amethio isn't exactly in a duo like the others (the others admins are often together, Onyx and Sango spend time together even when it's not about work, and Spinel and Agate have been mentioned to research things in a lab back in HZ024), so it highlights that he is quite isolated in comparison. But it's worth pointing out that Soublades being both Fire and Ghost reflects Hamber's Yonoir (who is Ghost type) and Friede's Lizardon (part Fire type), which is fitting since Friede and Hamber both influence Amethio the most in terms of battles and he is inspired by them both in different ways.

Amethio's first appearance in the show is during a sunset, when a day was ending...
... and his last appearance in the current arc is him witnessing a sunrise really makes things come full circle.
Everything around him fell apart (the battle, the tower, nothing ever went the way he would have wanted during this first arc of the series), and yet... a new day is still beginning and he still has to move forward. I love it, and I wonder what direction he'll take in the second arc. He was shown looking at the sea and reflecting in the teaser for the next arc... (and the sea is often a place where characters reflect, like Friede did in his backstory episode)
Additionally, this is the first time Amethio has been in a sunrise scene. He appeared when the sun was setting (HZ001, HZ023), at night (HZ001, HZ002, HZ004, HZ024, HZ025), during the day (HZ003, HZ005, HZ006, HZ021), and in enclosed spaces (like the Explorers base, the submarine and the Galar Mine).
