Moonlight Silver episode 69--The Afterpost

Posted May 10th, 2017 at 5:22 PM by EmeraldSky

This episode underwent some dramatic rewrites--Lyra is the one competing in the tournament, not Ash (as in the remix, Ash is Grass Pokemon free, as I felt he relied on Bulbasaur and Chikorita too much in the real show) By taking Bulbasaur and Chikorita away, that gave me the freedom to see what he would rely on if he had what I used in GSC. As I'm finding out, River the Maril and Luce the Flaaffy are becoming his remix standbys.

Moving Lyra into the competitor's role made for a good chance for character development for her and Hana--but Ash still learns the lesson in humility in the real episode.

I couldn't resist a callback to the Erika episodes from RBY, which will themselves be remixed in Lightning Yellow.

There was a lot of future generation foreshadowing in this episode too as well as hinting at some Pokemon the group will get in future generations (Treecko, Lotad, and Rowlet, to name some)

Kamon made the perfect replacement for Team Rocket in this episode, as what the Rockets do here sounds like something Kamon would do. This also marks the first time Brock uses his archery gear indoors, and not in a stage context.

Next time, Ash and the gang befriend a gaggle of Pichus, including a very special Pichu that helps save the day!
