pokemon horizons filler feels very…. off, to me. like that’s not to say all of it is bad, (i really enjoyed the palafin episode, plus the one with the krookodile) but this season’s filler feels very. nothing. like it feels like they’re already retreading ground with some very played out ideas (like fuecoco getting lost in the new episode)

and yknow im sort of a pokemon filler defender, some of them can be really charming and get me to like a pokemon i hadnt thought of before. but horizons just sorta feels like its going through the motions with some of these plots and that sorta worries me. like eve and i watched the newest episode all excited for fuecoco to finally get some development (because hes definitely the starter with the least going on out of the three and quaxwell just got a REALLY good episode beforehand) but then it was kinda just… more of the same. which is worrying, because we’re 60 episodes into this show now and we are lacking some substance here (that episode also especially worries me bc like… it literally comes across like they werent sure how to end the episode and just cut things short. im not really sure what the resolution is intended to be? like at least in previous filler, most of them would be cohesive plots)

#i worried bc it feels like the writers are already strapped for ideas with this cast #which is strange bc. isnt the whole point of moving on from ash to open up new characterization opportunities?#and dgmw the characters ARE good theyre very good. i love this cast a lot #but like… how many roy fillers are just gonna amount to. ‘’roy and fuecoco love each other’’#and how many floragato episodes are just gonna be ‘’liko looked at terapagos two seconds longer than she did for the kitty and kitty is mad’#… doesnt help that i also really dont like the sv pseudo legendary its so uglyyyy to me sorry #eve and i were also talking about roy and tbh hes sorta neglected in the trio #like… he feels like latestage ash to me where all his rough edges have been smoothed out #which is really unfair bc theyre not at all the same character. roy has a goal and passions and all that!#but he just feels like hes got less going on emotionally than liko or dot… which is worrying #i hope the ryme episode really picks up in this regard bc roy really needs some good character writing #like idk it just felt very obvious how neglected he is considering the dot episode right before #anyways rhis is just the filler the plot episodes are still very good #echoed voice
