it’s not even funny how dot’s quaxwell is easily the best written starter so far…

floragato is still my favorite of the three, and she gets points for her great backstory and personality, but it is kinda annoying that theyve only really done One kind of episode with her (jealousy arcs) and fuecoco’s just The Silly One and they’ve sorta passed on doing anything super interesting with him so far.

quaxwell meanwhile has been consistently endearing and has had a good amount of interesting screentime and interactions, and has the most interesting dynamic with his trainer where he’s basically her older brother trying to look out for her and help her get comfortable with herself, rather than the reverse we typically see. this show’s gotten me to like the quaxly line more than i did initially tbh

#btw i know this isnt ash’s arc and we shouldnt expect 1:1 parallels with him #but i just realized… the kids dont really train in this series? which is weird?#ok thats not totally true. we get a couple of episodes focusing on training them #but dots been left out of that #and the consequence is that we havent seen a good percent of the roster in action #dot straight up says that tinkatink has never battled before the gym battle #which is like… weird? bc she should know to try and get tinkatink some experience before doing that?#and thats also why kilowattrels and hattrems evolutions feel unearned. we’ve barely even seen them spar if at all #i think rn its distracting because theyre in a position where they really should be training. its like their study time #like we had time for a jealousy episode and the next ‘’pokemon gets lost oh noooo’’ episode is right after this #but we cant show the kids attempting to build their battle skills and bond with their pokemon?#hz lb #theyre using their time very weirdly here tbh. idk how i feel about this chapter #echoed voice
