there's something so... off. about the battles in journeys that i can't quite put my finger on. it's not all of them obviously but something just doesn't feel right about them?
#the first battle centric episode in jn (episode 7 with the flute tournament) starts off just. so strange#ive gone off abt how acting like ash caught mimey and its part of his roster is stupid and a bad idea and ofc this episode rubs that in#bc ha ha we gotta cash in on those le epic detective pikachu references that totally dont feel dated today#plus its just such a cop out for ash's fairy type#but its like. just such a weird choice overall... even if mimey is ash's pokemon its not a battler#and what always stuck out to me was like.... why choose mimey and not yknow. his 20+ roster at oak's lab?#this is THE throwback series so dont cry that kids might not know who corphish is or whatever#well. i guess getting a few viral tweets on twitter abt how the pokemon anime EPICALLY referenced the detective pikachu memes#was worth more than actually showcasing ash's pokemon or making sense. its such a weird note to start on for the first battle episode??#but aside from that. idk something feels missing. i used to say it might be the animations#and ''theyre trying to stick too close to the games animations like for swords dance when they could get creative''#but thats not an issue unique to this series at all. kalos was also pretty faithful to the games and thats got some of the best battles#echoed voice#jn lb
