Gibeon having a Shiny Zygarde is a crazy reveal and it makes the Explorers feel like a much bigger threat than before
giacomo_357
Gibeon pulling out a Zygarde at the end totally caught me off guard, I was just not expecting that at all! I'm really curious to see how they’ll weave that into the new Terastal arc, it feels like such a strong lead-in after the intensity of that battle.

Watching Rayquaza use Dragon Ascent showed how outmatched they were. The ship getting wrecked like that felt like a real loss for the team

Liko's Sprigatito finally evolving into Floragato was such a proud moment for me, especially seeing how much she's matured as a trainer through all these challenges. And then Gibeon pulls out a *shiny* Zygarde? I'm totally reeling, it makes me think he's way more involved with Lucius and those ancient legends than I first imagined.

Amethio teaming up with Friede was such a shock and seeing that Ghost Tera Ceruledge in action made the wait for his Terastallization worth it
maryrie
I loved seeing Fuecoco learn Flame Charge in the middle of that chaotic fight because Roy really needed a move like that to keep up
professor_elm_330
Captain Pikachu and Friede holding the line while Liko and Roy pushed their limits against Rayquaza was a huge moment
haruka_tenoh
I can't believe Sprigatito finally evolved and the animation when Floragato appeared looked so good
jeremiah_gottwald_175
Rayquaza crashing into the Brave Olivine was terrifying, but the way the whole crew jumped in to save the ship showed how much they have bonded, and it was great seeing them work as a team
aerith_gainsborough
I still can't believe both Sprigatito and Fuecoco evolved in the same fight and seeing Floragato and Crocalor finally appear made the whole Rayquaza battle feel worth it
trunks_traveler_85
Watching Liko and Roy and Dot take on a legendary together without needing Friede to hold their hands the whole time was great and I am happy to see them actually standing their ground against that dragon
sado_chadian_492
Rayquaza using Dragon Ascent and just wiping out Friede and Amethio in one shot was a massive reality check and showed how much Liko and Roy still need to learn
pippin_the_giant
Roy and Fuecoco really stepped up their game this time. Learning Flame Charge right in the middle of that chaos was huge. They might have lost the fight but they showed so much heart
zuna_293
The direction during that final clash with Rayquaza was so dynamic and it really felt like the protagonists were in actual danger for once when they got knocked out
asukawaifu
Amethio having his Ceruledge jump in to save Liko from that Draco Meteor was a huge moment, and it makes you wonder if he is actually going to be a villain for long
kensuke_aida
That Black Rayquaza is an absolute beast. Friede and Amethio teaming up was a huge moment. Seeing those two throw everything at it was so cool
bizzo_senpai
Amethio and Friede working together with that Terastal Ceruledge moment felt like such a huge shift for their rivalry and the battle choreography was incredible during the whole raid
susanoo_slayer_49
I thought Fuecoco learning Flame Charge while riding on Charizard was adorable and it showed that Roy is actually making some progress as a trainer during these intense legendary fights
midna
Floragato using those yo-yo vines to attack while everything was exploding around them looked amazing and it really felt like a proper finale for this first big arc
franky_fiesta_65
Amethio using Ghost-type Tera on Ceruledge looked incredible, even if Rayquaza still managed to wipe the floor with everyone. It was nice to see him finally working with Friede for a change
EPISODE CONTEXT
Episode 45 serves as the climactic resolution to the Rayquaza arc that heated up in the preceding episode, 'The Plan to Capture Rayquaza,' where the Explorers' machinations brought the legendary Pokémon into direct conflict with our heroes. This episode delivers the payoff for that buildup, testing the Rising Volt Tacklers at their limit. It also marks a significant narrative pivot point, as the following episode, 'Welcome to Naranja Academy!,' shifts the story into an entirely new setting and chapter for the protagonists.
