First Look at Fire Rescue!

Source - TybsTybsy on Twitter/X (Click here to see the post)

In case you missed the news, it was discovered a few months ago that the second subseries of season 11 will be Fire Rescue! And, as expected, it will focus on Marshall, just like how the Air Rescue focused on Skye. Adventure Bay will also get a new fire station, as you can see in the above image, and of course, the pups will get new gear that's appropriate for such a job!

I believe Tybs might also has access to another picture (or some sort of info), which he hasn't posted yet, that shows four of the six pups (the same ones in the above pic) receiving new firetruck vehicles (Rocky and Zuma are absent, which is nothing unusual at this point). This is great news, especially for anyone who was concerned about Air Rescue becoming a new standard and only giving some of the pups new vehicles! That's a big plus in favor of Fire Rescue already!

Currently, it's unknown when this new subseries will air. At the time of typing this (October 4, 2024), Canada hasn't even finished airing Air Rescue yet, so no doubt it'll be a while. We'll likely see it within the latter half of the season, which'll probably air (in Canada) near the end of the year or the start of 2025. I'm certainly looking forward to it!

Oh yeah, another image of Fire Rescue. This gives us a better look at Marshall's new outfit and vehicle! It's no Ultimate Fire gear, but hey, I still like it! :)

I guess the question now is... how long will the whole "______ Rescue" thing last? Will we get a Construction Rescue for Rubble? An Ocean Rescue for Zuma? A Fix-It Rescue for Rocky? It's possible, although like what others have said, I can't see it happening with every pup. I also, as much as I hate to say it, have my doubts that Chase will get a Police Rescue, given that the franchise is so hesitant to focus on any police themes anymore. Even when he appeared in Rubble & Crew, Chase was less of an officer and more of a detective... even going as far to say such unfitting phrases like "Let's solve this with science!". They may yet surprise us, so I suppose we'll just have to wait and see.

WELCOME TO OUR BLOG!

This is a blog for you to interact with some of the Paw Patrol pups: The Firefighter and EMT pup, Marshall; The Recycle Do-All pup, Rocky; and last but not least, The Cool Water-Loving pup, Zuma.

Before you can send asks or start a RP, please check the rules under the cut first. Hope to see you around and have some fun!

Ps.: Askbox opens from Friday to Monday early morning (GMT -3). It's closed as soon as I wake up.

RULES FOR INTERACTING

1- Be respectful. There’s an actual person sitting in front of a computer or holding her cell phone here, spending time to play as her favorite pups, interact with people she doesn’t know and have fun; Time which she could be using for working and earning money to not worry about what to eat tomorrow, if her own dog and cat will have their food too and if the bills will be paid in time or late again. I’m here to have a good time. If someone starts being a bother, I’ll make use of the block button and delete asks or whatever’s sent my way. I’m not wasting time with assholes.

2- Same goes for the pups, actually - if I feel someone’s bothering them, I’ll do the same as above. Even if I’m not the one affected but I feel the pups would be. 

3- If you wish to RP, please send a DM to my other sideblog, self-indulgent-paw-patrol, so we can discuss about plots first. You don’t need to DM me if you just want to send asks or interact with the pups, though, that’s only for RPs.

4- EDIT! Thanks to some encouragement and the positive reception this blog has been receiving, I'm willing to try RPing crossovers again (Never did it here before, but I've done in other askblogs I've moderated in the past in other fandoms). The thing is, PLEASE TALK TO ME FIRST! Sometimes I don't know your muse at all, so it would be good to get to know them a bit first, before we plot anything. The ideal is for you to have an "About" page for your muses so I can check them out!

5- I’m willing to RP ships, be it platonic or romance, but absolutely NO NSFW will be allowed here. From the possible ships with the pups in this blog, my OTP is Rocky x Zuma, followed by Marshall x Everest and Chase x Marshall. I’m open for shipping the pups with OCs, granted I get to know the OCs first.

6- Feel free to reblog any posts you may find in this blog, including the pups' answers to asks they get. The only posts you shall NOT REBLOG (but you can like) are the posts tagged as #RP if you're not the one participating in it. That's basic ancient Tumblr etiquette!

7- M!A (Magic!Anons) are not allowed. One too many people have tried to force stuff that was way past my limitations, even sounding like they just wanted free art out of it. I don’t have time nor patience for that.

Rules may be subject to change in the future as I see fit. For now, that's about it!

Now I'll take the chance to promote some other askblogs in the fandom too just because I can XD Make sure to read their rules before interacting!

Hello, PAW Patrol.

Ryder, Marshall, Rubble, Chase, Rocky, Zuma, Skye, and Liberty. For years you have kept the citizens of Adventure Bay and Adventure City safe from many, many dangers, which leads me to why you’re here

In front of you are 8 tickets to SAW X, and 8 tickets to PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie. You know what to do.

This isn’t a trap, I just noticed that our movies are coming out on the same day and I thought it was really funny.

Have fun, #SAWPatrol

[self-indulgent-paw-patrol]

Saw your post about Pride Headcanons of the pups.

I thought of the same for Chase being Bisexual since he's most likely attracted/interested to both Skye and Zuma (who are friends) Chase and Zuma's rivalry in the early seasons is kinda cute like they'd probably end up as a couple (but who says they can't in the future but not jus now that they're still kids/pups). And I'd probably prefer Chase x Zuma over Rocky x Zuma (no offense since I'm fine with both ships as well as Chase x Marshall or Rocky x Marshall)

Ohh and there used to be people shipping Chase and Zuma together and one of em even edited them getting married like Chase wearing a grooms outfit and Zuma wearing a brides outfit.

Look, if there's one thing they never changed in this show and I LOVE IT it's just how competitive Zuma is for anything. He may be the most calm pup ever, just existing over there, just vibing and minding his own business- but if someone holds up a rope, or a tug-o-war toy, or if Ryder throws a ball, or any of them will pick up any other toy really... Zuma will literally teleport there to play AND HE'S THERE TO WIN. Typical Labrador Retriever behavior if you ask me XD

I remember it showed a lot more in the early seasons (just like everything else in this show, sadly), towards Chase mostly, sometimes with Skye too, or Rocky. Skye is extremely competitive too XD Makes sense to me there's a consistent ship for Chase and Zuma, they used to play and compete a lot together (or against each other).

Chase is probably the only one who can actually keep up with Zuma's energy for playing (or for anything else), if you think about it! Marshall isn't competitive, he's there for the fun. Rocky is competitive but not as much. Skye is competitive as hell but she's smaller and nowhere near as strong as them, so she must get tired pretty fast after so much effort to keep up. As for Rubble... The poor guy gets tired fast too XD He's strong, but not made for running.

Also, no offense taken XD Each one of us will have their own preferences and that's what makes it fun. Shipping wars are sooooo a 2000s thing 😂 Ship and let ship- besides, I am a multishipper. For example, I ship mostly Chase and Skye, but I also really like the ship between Chase and Marshall. I am pretty open-minded about these things, I've seen enough fights in my lifetime to even care too much about what people ship or not. Be happy, have fun, create some content for yourself, show it around if you want!

[jimnygemini]

screw the mighty pups film (hot take those who ship s***e)

You all remember Zuma was going to have a support role and more screentime according to Cal Brunker?

That was scratched off, but I think FANDOM wiki is to blame for their trash rules of taking out legitimate admins and allowing faulty AI.😒

The only BAD NEWS I found is the film writers will forget Marshall’s existence in favor of Skye and Chase scenes. (LIKE DID YOU FORGET CHARSHALL aka the shepherd x dally best friends EXISTS?)

Honest to heavens, it infuriates me to no end.

Sorry to rain their parades of if all those who ship them, but I see Skye and Chase as step-siblings more than you imagine. It will be explained in my headcanons for sure.😑

Marshall could have been the next lead in the Mighty Pups film with a tragic backstory and Chase being the support role for him. Or explore more of Zuma & Skye’s friendship. It works much more than what we have now.

All of what I’ve researched thus far; including Skye’s non-existent size inferiority and turning her into a strong twink made me NOT WANT to see the feminist sequel, dislike CAL’s first movie adaptation for derailing Chase’s character, and appreciate the older seasons up until the lonely ghost episode. (Marshall-centric episodes from season 9 onwards still matters, so let me know there are at least a few)

[amiablyinept]

I just took a 13 hour flight and I'm running on like 3 hours of sleep. During the flight I watched PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie and I am not okay after it, no spoilers here but it totally got me thinking of a PAW Patrol x Rescue Bots crossover. Heatwave would totally be paired with Marshall Chase with Chase (lol) Boulder would try and talk to Rubble

Blades and Skye could bond over aerial stunts with the latter encouraging the former

The rest of the pups would probably pair up something like this. Liberty goes with Heatwave to try and make him less reserved, she'd also probably get on his nerves lol. Rocky sees Rubble hanging out with Boulder and joins them

Zuma would just chill with blades while Skye is doing all sorts of cool tricks.

So today I was so bored in thermodynamics class so I wrote 26 paw patrol Characters in a omegaverse table like split those characters into Alphas, Omegas and Betas.

Then I said oh fuck I forgot Liberty and put her there. But about 5 hours later while I was writing a comment on Tik tok I remembered that I hadn't put Tracker on so I had to edit some things and finally put him on.

And this is the wonderful table that created.

Alpha α Α: Claw

Sweetie

Marshall

Everest

Liberty

Mayor Goodway

Humdinger

Skye

Gasket

Hubcap

(10 Alphas)

Beta β Β: Rocky

Zuma

Ryder

Duke

Mr Porter

Moby

Dwayne

Farmer Al y Yumi

Harold

Al

Tracker

(12 Betas)

Omega ω Ω: Chase

Coral

Katie

Princess of Barkingburg

Rex

Rubble

(6 Omegas)

How did I choose them for each category? I don't know, I just did it and that's it. It can serve as an Omegaverse base, you can get twenty thousand Omegaverse ideas out of this one base.

Like you can create Alpha x Omega, Alpha x Beta, Beta x Omega, Alpha x Alpha, Beta x Beta, Omega x Omega etc. There's a lot of possibilities out there and we have to explore them.

If someone likes my character table but likes to make small modifications to it, they can do it but maybe say that they were inspired by me or something.

Yeah that's all for today.

Skye's Confession (Rewrite)

Paw Patrol Skye Fanfic

This is a rewrite. I have now watched Jet To The Rescue so I have changed some details from the original to reflect the fact that Skye had previously managed to overcome her fear of eagles. I also fixed the spellings of Marshall and Zuma's names. The original can be found on my Wattpad.

When Skye falls from the sky after being asked to deal with a particular eagle, it becomes apparent that there is more to her previously thought overcome fear than the Paw Patrol had ever imagined. In this non-canonical story Skye is forced to give up her secrets, but how will the Paw Patrol react to this revelation?

Chapter 1: What Happened Skye?

"Skye, I need you to lore the eagle away." Ryder says.

"Eagle?" Skye asks, "Okay!" she says in a confident voice.

She barks out her wings and flies up to face the eagle. The eagle turns around to see her. Once she has the chance to really look at it, she freezes. She begins to hyperventilate.

Chase is closer to her. He becomes panicked, "Ryder, I think there's a problem."

"What's wrong?" he asks, not being able to see what's happening as well.

"It's Skye, she doesn't so good!" Chase is now becoming increasingly concerned.

"Skye, everything alright up there?" Ryder tries to contact her on her Pup Tag.

Chase tries too, "Skye? Skye please say something!"

Skye blacks out and begins to fall. She lands wings first on her back, a few meters away from where she had been in the sky. Chase runs over to her still-laying body.

"Rocky, see if you have something in your truck that could distract the eagle." Ryder calls out, "Marshall, take Skye back to The Lookout and do what you can. Chase, you can go with them."

"On it!" Reply Rocky, Marshall and Chase.

Skye wakes up back in The Lookout, not sure what happened after she blacked out. She sits up, staring at the ground.

"Skye, you okay?" Marshall asks.

Skye is too overwhelmed to answer, she won't even look at Marshall.

"Skye?" he asks again.

Chase tries, "Skye? Please say something."

She stays silent.

Marshall sighs, "Guess we'll just get on with the check-up, give me some space would you?"

Chase nods and steps back before turning away. He sits and whines quietly.

Marshall notices, "She means alot to you, doesn't she?" he asks while continuing with the x-ray machine.

Chase looks back at him, "Skye? Yeah, she does mean alot to me. I don't know what I'd do if she isn't okay. I just don't understand what happened, I thought she got over her fear in Barkingburg?"

"Yeah, we all thought that. So why is she so important to you?" Marshal becomes curious.

"Well," Chase begins, "She's always been there for me," he says thinking back to when she comforted him on the rooftop in Adventure City, "I mean, it's not like you guys haven't, but, well, I don't know..." his voice trails off.

"Sorry," Marshall apologises, "I didn't mean to dig so deep."

"No, it's fine," Chase reassures him, "I guess I just never really thought about it, there's always just kinda been something, you know?"

"Yeah, I like to think that all three of us are like that, to some extent at least," Marshall admits, "With so many pups in the Paw Patrol, it's important we all have a smaller group that will be there for us when we need it most, and that we can admit things to that we wouldn't tell the rest of the group, things not the whole group would do for one of us pups. For me, I like to think that would be you and Skye."

"Makes sense, so how is she?" Chase asks, noticing Marshall has stopped taking x-rays.

"Well," he doesn't want to hurt him, "It's hard to tell yet..."

His Pup Tag beeps, "Marshall?" Ryder asks, "Do you copy?"

"Yeah, I copy." Marshall replies.

"Great," says Ryder, "How's Skye doing?"

"Well," he begins, "We don't know. She's awake, but won't speak. No reason she shouldn't be able to that I can find, but we have no way of knowing whether it's because she's choosing not to or what's going on. Other than that, no broken bones or anything. Just some serious bruising where she landed on her back."

"Don't worry, I think I might know why she isn't speaking. Just trust me on this, okay? We're headed back now so I'll come and try talking to her." Ryder says, knowing Chase can hear and so trying to keep him calm.

"Okay, see you all soon." Marshall ends communication.

Chapter 2: Chase Is Here For You

Ryder and the other pups arrive back at The Lookout. The pups head to the elevator, but it doesn't go up. They all wait in suspense.

"We'll leave you to it." Marshall says. Him and Chase join the other pups in the elevator before it then ascends to the top.

Chase goes off to one side of the room, distancing himself from the other pups so none of them see something's wrong. Marshal soon follows.

"Hey, why are you over here alone?" He asks Chase.

Chase replies with "I don't want the others to see how scared and upset I am."

Marshall giggles, "Well, if you ask me, standing alone away from everybody only makes it more obvious. If you really wanna hide it, we should distract ourselves by going and playing with the others. If nothing else, they'll be too busy to notice. Either way, if your standing alone it's basically guaranteed that somebody will question you."

Chase admits defeat, "Yeah, I guess you're right."

They both then join the others in a game of Tug of War.

Meanwhile, Ryder was pretty sure he knew what was up with Skye not speaking.

"Skye, it's Ryder, he sighed, "You don't need to say anything, just nod your head if you can hear me."

Skye nods her head.

"Okay, is it alright if I ask you a few questions?" He asked as he sat on the floor next to her.

She nods her head again.

"Okay, are you choosing not to speak?"

She nods her head yet again.

"Okay, is that because you felt overwhelmed?"

She nods.

"I see, is there anything else going on?"

She nods again, but this time more subtlety.

"Okay, is there any pup you'd be able to talk to?"

Skye thinks for a minute, before nodding her head again.

"Marshall?" Ryder asks.

She considers answering yes to Marshall, but decides against it and so shakes her head.

"Chase?"

She nods.

"Okay, I'll go get him."

Ryder goes to get Chase.

"Chase!" he calls.

Chase runs over to him.

"Is Skye okay?" Chase asks.

"Yeah, she said she'd talk to you." Ryder replies.

"Really? That's not funny."

"I'm not laughing."

"Oh. OH!" Chase exclaims before running to the elevator and descending to the bottom floor where Skye is.

"Skye?" he asks while cautiously advancing towards her, "Ryder said you'd talk to me, is that true?"

"Yeah." she says very quietly.

Chase runs up to her and tries to nuzzle her, but she is quick to carefully scoot away, mindful of her back as it was still in pain from the fall. She still doesn't make eye contact.

Chase apologises, "Oh, sorry. I'm just so glad you're okay."

"No, I'm sorry," She protests, while still speaking quietly, "I'm sorry I let you down, and that I scared you."

"No, it's not your fault. But if you're still scared of eagles you should've said something. We all thought you had gotten past that." Chase says with a guilty look on his face.

"I'm not scared, of most eagles. But that eagle today, well, there's something about it that none of us could've known, not even me, until it was too late."

"What's that?"

"Well..." Skye says, her voice shaking before trailing off.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to pressure you. You don't have to tell me if you don't want to."

"No, I do want to." she makes eye contact for the first time since the incident, "It's just, it's like there's some kind of force stopping me. But, I know I'll have to say it eventually, you all deserve an explanation. I just need a few days, Ryder will know what I mean."

"Okay, but I'm always here for you if you need, no matter what." Chase offers, before walking away to the elevator with a disappointed look on his face.

"Thanks." Skye whispered, but loud enough that Chase heard.

Chase turned back one last time, "Before I go, there is one more thing. You don't have to tell me, but, I would like to know. What happened up there today?"

"Oh, that. Well, because of the 'something' about that particular eagle, well, as soon as I realised, I panicked. I couldn't breath, then I blacked out..."

"Okay, thanks for telling me. I guess I'll see you around?" Chase asked.

Skye looked away, Chase waited a second before heading to the elevator and ascending back to the top floor.

Ryder met him at the elevator door, "What did she say?" he asked.

Chase paused for a second, not sure whether answering would be a betrayal to Skye. He then remembered something Skye said, 'Ryder will know what I mean', and decided he should answer Ryder's question. "She said she needs a few days, and that you'd know what she means by that. She also said that she needs to explain something to all of us, when she's ready."

"Okay, thanks..." Ryder's voice trailed of before he walked away, head facing the ground.

Chase was concerned for him, "Ryder? What's wrong?"

"I just don't understand what happened. I mean, we all thought she wasn't scared anymore. And even so, it's never been such a large problem before, I don't understand why she didn't say something. I feel that it was wrong of me to ask her, even though she said it was okay and always agreed to it even before what happened in Barkingburg. I can't help but wonder if maybe she did have a problem all this time, but was too afraid to say anything for fear of letting down the team, and I let that happen." Ryder explained.

"Look, I don't really know what happened either, but Skye told me that she isn't scared of most eagles anymore, but there was something different about that eagle today that you couldn't have possibly known, and she didn't realise herself until it was too late. I may not know what that difference was, but I know it means you have no reason to feel guilty. I'm sure she'll tell us all when she's ready."

"Thanks Chase." Ryder said, they both then joined the other pups in Tug of War again.

Chapter 3: The Confession

A few days later, Skye decides she's as ready as she'll ever be to explain to the other's what happened during the eagle encounter. She ascends in the elevator to find everyone. They all notice when she gets to the top and steps out, everything goes silent. Skye still can't bear to look at any of the pups, besides Chase. She shoots him a sort of, 'I'm ready', or 'this is it' type look, and he nods in return, as if to say 'if you're sure' and 'I'm here for you'.

"Guys," she begins, as loud as her shaky voice will let her, "I need to talk to you all."

Everybody took the signal to gather around her, while being wary of giving her space after what had happened.

"I think you all deserve an explanation as to what happened to me with the eagle a few days ago."

"Skye, you don't need to do this," Marshall cuts in, "you don't owe us anything, we're all just glad you're okay."

"Except I do owe this to you, you all deserve to know that I've been lying about something ever since I first joined the Paw Patrol." her voice was now more shaky than it'd ever been.

Everybody gasped in shock, not understanding what Skye could possibly be talking about.

She spoke slowly, "You see, I was more afraid of eagles than any of you have ever known. And it wasn't just some irrational fear like I tried to make it out to be. And, I hope you all know I've moved past that now. You know we all have tough pasts that for most of us, only Ryder knows about, the stories of how he found each of us, and why we are all here. But there's a part to mine, Ryder, that not even you know about. Let me start from the beginning. When I was very young, I was so small an eagle was able to pick me up and carry me for a very long time. I never saw my owners again. That's where my fear originally came from, but it gets worse. You see Ryder, that's the part you already know, but here's the part you didn't. When you found me, I was hiding many cuts, scrapes and bruises from what that eagle did to me. Just before you found me, it had been throwing me off the nest, how I got the bruises, just to carry me back up and drop me in the thorn bush next to it, where I got all those cuts, some of which I still have today in the form of scars. Not just emotional, but physical scars on my body from all those years of being grabbed with sharp talons and dropped in a thorn bush."

Ryder jumped in, "But Skye, you always told me you were willing to face your fear and take care of eagles whenever we needed and now it's okay, what happened this time?"

"Well, you see, that eagle from a couple days ago wasn't just any eagle. First going into it, I thought it would be okay. But this time there was one small problem, as soon as I was level with it and could really see it, I noticed something none of us could've expected. That eagle from a couple days ago, was the same eagle that tortured me for all that time when I was younger. As soon as I realised, I couldn't get the flashbacks out of my head, so I panicked. In my head I was reliving that awful time, I couldn't stop it. Now there's one more thing you all need to know. Sometimes I get so over stimulated with a strong emotion that I hyperventilate and shut down, it's like some sort of force stopping me from doing anything until I get chance to be alone for a long time so my mind can slowly process it all after having everything dumped on it. It hasn't really been an issue since I joined the Paw Patrol so I never felt the need to mention it. I thought I had left that part of me behind, but now I guess not. With that said, that's basically what happened. I couldn't breath, which caused me to blackout and fall. When I woke up, I couldn't speak. Not that I physically couldn't, of sorts, but it was that force I said about, it wouldn't let me. And even now, speaking to you all right now is incredibly difficult although partially for another reason."

"But Skye, why didn't you tell us any of that before?" Marshall asked.

"Well, you all obviously don't want me around now you know I'm so scared of a bird, and that I lied to you all. I know it's pretty stupid, but I can't help it. I tried to forget about it all, I really tried, but that stuff literally left scars that I have to feel everyday of my life, and that pain is a constant reminder I just can't get rid of. Hey, I guess that's something I've been hiding from you all. Point is, I lied to you all, and kept secrets from you all for years, and I know you guys deserve better than that on the Paw Patrol. I know I will never be able to even come close to making it up to you," she looked at Marshall for the first time in a while, as if to say this next part was directed to him more than the others, "but I still want to say, I am so sorry for everything." She then ran to the balcony in tears.

"Skye!" call Marshall and Chase, before looking at each other, nodding, and running after her.

"Skye, of course we still want you around." Marshall tries to comfort her.

"Yeah," Chase agrees, "nobody's upset or mad at you."

"Why though?" Skye says in disbelief, "I lied to you all, I kept secrets for years and hid things. You all should be mad."

The three of them hadn't noticed the other pups standing in the doorway with Ryder.

Rocky steps towards them, "We understand why you did it."

Zuma joined him, "You were trying to protect yourself from rejection, any of us would've done the same if it was us."

Rubble steps forward too, he says "Yeah" in agreement.

"Really?" Skye tried to dry her face, "You're really not mad at me?"

"Of course not." the other pups say in unison.

Everest suddenly appears, "And neither am I." she says.

"Everest?" Ryder asks, "How long have you been here?"

"A while," she answers, "I saw Skye fall a few days ago from the mountain, and I wanted to see if she was okay. I would've come sooner, but I had to wait for Jake in case he got back from his trip and got scared when I wasn't there. Skye, I'm gonna be honest, I've been standing here long enough to have heard everything you said."

"Oh..." Skye hadn't anticipated Everest being there.

"Sorry, I probably should've said something sooner." Everest apologises.

"No, it's fine," Skye reassures her, "you deserve to know too, I just didn't think that you'd find out today. I'm sorry."

Marshall and Chase notice Skye's voice has become very shaky and tears are forming in her eyes again, they scoot closer to try and comfort her. The other pups, now including Everest, decide to walk away but Ryder stays stood by the door.

"Skye," he starts, his voice shaking, "I'm sorry. If I had known what that eagle did to you, I would've never asked you to face any eagle even now, and I shouldn't have either way. I'm so sorry I put you through that, and I promise to never ask you to do it again."

"No, " she protests, "I always told you it was fine. It always was fine. I didn't mind doing what needs to be done, no matter how hard it was. Plus now it's fine, I promise. I just never imagined I'd have to see that eagle again. I didn't want to let the team down, but, I couldn't control it. I'm so sorry, I should've told you about everything sooner. I just never thought it would be such a big problem."

"Skye, you didn't let anybody down. You tried your best, things just went a little wrong, but now you're okay. That's all that matters to us. And you didn't have to tell us anything if you didn't want to, but we're glad you did. If it's okay with you, I'm gonna redesign your mission suit to be... more lightweight." Ryder offers.

Skye giggled, "That would be amazing, thank you."

The end... or is it?

I know many people (including me) are upset about Air Rescue and it's Pup Inequality but to think of it I think it's a good concept. To me, I think the decision to have only 3 pups have Air Vehicles is so that it's not too similar to JTTR (unsure if those have merch) that had every pup in a jet and fly around. Kinda like how Sea Patrol only had Rocky and Rubble have Underwater Vehicles, Chase and Marshall have Boats and Zuma and his hovercraft that can be both. While Aqua Pups had all pups have underwater vehicles.

On the bright side, there might be a future mission which will have both Air and Sea involved so you get three pups up in the air while the other three pups on water.

For context, for those of you unaware of this stuff.

It's been established now that the latest subseries, "Air Rescue", will only give new vehicles to Chase, Marshall and Skye. Sadly, Rocky, Rubble and Zuma were left out (Rocky did get what looked like a new vehicle at the start of the first Air Rescue episode, but it was just for unloading luggage at the new airport). And for those who have heard of this and might have still have some doubts... well...

Even the merchandise shows Rocky, Rubble and Zuma in their default vehicles. They're not getting anything, so hence the "inequality" part that a lot of fans have talked about with the latest subseries.

But the thing is, they really didn't have to do this. We've had subseries in the past that were similar to others, such as season 3's Jungle Rescue and season 10's Jungle Pups, but they still found ways to differentiate them while being fair to each pup. They could've done the same thing here, even if the other three weren't given airborne vehicles; Marshall's plane could've included a submersible dropship that's piloted by Zuma, Skye's plane could've included a unique construction vehicle for Rubble, etc. If anything, this could've made for some interesting toys for the kids, too. Sadly, they decided to just not bother, and unlike season 3's Air Pups and the Jet to the Rescue mini movie, three pups inexplicably were kept grounded. It's odd.

Maybe they only modeled three new vehicles to save money, since the animation recently got a complete overhaul?

Or maybe they didn't want six big vehicles in the air at once. For Jet to the Rescue, their planes were small, so that wasn't a problem. The ones in Air Rescue, however, are much larger, and that could've been a bit awkward, trying to have all six in the air at once. Then again, they didn't absolutely need six big vehicles, as even three large planes and three smaller ones could've worked, too. I guess there still would've been some inequality with that, but not as bad as what they decided to go with.

Who knows the true reason. Whatever the case, let's just hope this doesn't become a regular thing. It'll be a shame if the next subseries, which we know is "Fire Rescue", only gives new firefighting vehicles to Chase, Marshall and Skye again, while the other three just twiddle their paws and wait for Ryder to give them something to do.

I wonder what marshall thinks of this ship marshall x chase ship

Also, to you three, what do you guys think of sweetie, moby, arby and claw?

Just like Zuma said once here long ago, people will ship whatever they want, it's not like we can stop them. I'll just keep minding my own business.

Uh, Sweetie needs a hobby. Moby... I don't get him. Puplantis is so cool and the Merpups are so friendly and receptive, I don't know why he hates them so much. Arrby... He's a nice pup, he's just... Following someone who's a bad influence. Claw needs a hobby too.

I agree Sweetie and Claw need a hobby. Good thing they don't care about each other, it would be triple annoying if they worked together. Moby is like an angry grandpa in the body of a young pup who wants peace and quiet but lives with a big family who will never leave him alone. And I think Arrby needs to learn to think for himself sometimes.

Sweetie and Claw definitely need a hobby and some therapy, Moby needs to chill and be left alone, maybe just move to go live somewhere else, and Arrby needs to ground himself. He spends too much time in the sea for a normal pup, his brain must be totally wavy by now.

As if you wouldn't love to live in a cool pirate ship too.

Besides the point.

Even though we have Charshall interactions in the sequel, there is no way I’m jumping on the bandwagon. (Heck, I don’t want to see the impeached mayor purple jerk on screen again😡)

First film demotes Skye from an energetic and bubbly aviation fanatic to a generic nice girl and the sequel screwed the cockapoo up with her size inferiority, when she had a fear of bald eagles and hawks.😑

Spin Master only push-advertise Chase and Skye to easily market for both genders. (corporation mentality I’m telling you) 

Series has been established Zuma & Skye are close friends as our main German Shepherd x Dalmatian duo, so Spin Master just wants to make money out of the most popular pups.🫠

The movie isn't even out yet but we already have a Chase and Marshall scene where they actually act like themselves from the show during Seasons 1-5. I miss this Chase and I miss these interactions between him and Marshall. I'll probably never forget the Chaos these two made in that scene. I bet @marshallpupfan agrees with me here.
