Excadrill was probably stronger than all of Ash's Pokemon at the time.

Even then, Excadrill is just much more experienced.

I blame Ash on that one. It's the final match, like Iris wasn't going to use her strongest Pokemon? Ash should've anticipated that one, but I guess he was out of his reasoning fuel that day.

Yes, but it also has people saying "Heads up, I'm going to unleash my rage".

For what it's worth, in the Japanese version, he says something along the lines of "This is going to be quite tough *Looks to hero* hold my back, will ya?"

So basically I'd want to watch the sub if this was a real thing.

It is worth noting, I guess, that Ash just beat up both of Iris and Cilan's rivals. Also that Cilan beat Ash's rival. Can you imagine if Brock had beaten Paul in a battle?

"First time I got punched in the face, I was like "oh no", then I was like "this is a story"."

According to Japanese airing dates, the movie premiered in between "Reunion Battles in Nimbasa" and "Cilan Versus Trip, Ash Versus Georgia".

So I guess the heroes just took a break from the tournament to go get into wacky antics with Zekrom/Reshiram. Serebii lists it before the Nimbasa tournament, though.

Since you're already in the middle, I guess you might as well watch it after the conclusion of this tournament.

Is there another comic strip or was it just a boring old synopsis?

Not very exciting battles if they all happen in one episode. But I guess they're probably 1 vs 1 like the other two tournaments, so eh. These 1 Pokemon tournaments are annoying. Give me at least 3 vs 3, dammit!

Oh, well the episode is called Ash, Iris, and Trip's Final Battle so I just assumed it was. Unless none of them win...?

Assuming he tries, Janelle's the only one that's on his level. Britney is lol, and Boogie's just not in the same tier, despite winning last week. I think he has a great chance at winning.

He would be so stupid to throw it. He has one person left, he needs to fight his hardest every week to make sure that one person gets immunity. I mean really. Laying low can only do you so much good.

Not sure what I can really get this week.

Best case scenario, I guess: Dan wins Coach Competition (5), Willie and Shane nominated (4), Shane wins PoV (7), Shane saves himself (3 or... 0?), JoJo nominated (4), JoJo on the block come eviction night (5), Jenn voting for Willie (with Willie evicted) (1), Shane voting for either one of them (1).

Total: 27 or 30 depending on how that using veto on yourself thing works out.

A man can dream.

9 points this week. Could be worse. Hope Shane and JoJo can survive this week (or Dan, for that matter >_>).

I don't think so, since they aren't the ones competing.

Yaay. And lol, I was also going to suggest that Have Not thing since we're not really get Have Not competitions this season. 1 point is what I was going to suggest.

They might as well be considering the edit CBS gives them!

I think the coach winning the Coaches Competition should be worth at least 5 points. Mostly because it's the only thing they can really do so far, but also because the other two big competitions wield 7 and 10 points, so 3 seems pretty low in comparison.

Magic Disappearing Signature

He showed up at the end asking for help in hunting down the remaining sages.

Also he gave you the Super Rod because I guess sages are fish.

--

Magic Disappearing Signature

In the Japanese version, there's a scene at the end of the Venipede episode where Ash and Co. beg to go to the Desert Resort with Prof. Juniper, but the scene was simply cut in the American version for continuity's sake.

I was counting acapella Midnight Crew as a not serious song btw. Those are usually fun. See also: How do I Live.

It's when they try to write original, "serious" lyrics that it all goes to cheese and horror.

This was basically how I felt about Dawn of Man when I listened to it yesterday.

Yeah, generally unless it's for an important battle, Ash always has Pikachu, the starters, and Scraggy with him.

Oddly, Oshawott is extremely upset at having to battle earlier than it wanted to.

Hey, if it wanted to battle first, it would've broken out of its Poke Ball to do so.
