Watching these two Nidothing superfans argue over who likes her more was a callout to actual fan culture, and it made the whole Rayquaza fakeout feel more personal
blue
Nyabiko lying about Rayquaza just to get Nidothing to show up was messy and the way she agreed to fix their reputation actually makes this feel important
yukio_yukimura_490
Ult appearing again is getting suspicious and he definitely has some kind of weird obsession with Roy and it was kind of funny seeing him break up the fight
l_mystery
It was impressive seeing Meowscarada hold its ground against a massive Incineroar even with the fire disadvantage and my respect for Liko's battling skills went up so much today
mumen_rider
Ult showing up with a whole swarm of Pokemon was such a weird way to end that battle but at least Meowscarada got to show off some skills first
poppy_365
Stopping the fight to help those wild Pokemon showed that Liko and Roy have their priorities straight regardless of what the public thinks of them
erwin_enigma_108
Dot telling her followers that Liko is just a normal friend was big, even though Liko looked incredibly flustered the entire time they were on that call
serpico_the_sylph_194
Lucario seemed a bit out of place standing around Roy but seeing how Liko handled Litten Smitten showed how much she has actually grown as a person
senpaixd
Nyabiko is actually kind of scary with how much she obsesses over Nidothing and the fake Rayquaza story was such a low blow to get attention
darunia_267
I was really feeling for Meowscarada when those Litten were all over Liko and seeing it get so jealous was actually the cutest part of the whole thing
otoroshi_oni_35
I think seeing the team try to fix their reputation after Spinel messed everything up is actually pretty important and it was cool to see Litten Girl change her mind about them after seeing Liko battle, it gives me hope that the Rising Volt Tacklers can finally clear their name, one fan at a time by winning over people like her
dark_beast_ganon
It is nice to see the team slowly fixing their image one person at a time and helping those angry Pokemon was exactly what Nyabiko needed to see to trust them
katy_362
It is pretty wild that Nidothing is so famous that just having you associated with her is enough to make a random trainer challenge you to a duel
impa
I was impressed by how Liko handled the fire types with Meowscarada and she definitely had a plan to win even with the disadvantage
professor_turo_335
That fake Rayquaza sighting really hurt after waiting so long for news but the episode did a great job showing how much the public hates the Rising Volt Tacklers right now
lulu
I really wanted to see the end of that battle between Meowscarada and Incineroar, it felt like Liko was about to pull off something huge before Ult jumped in and ruined the momentum
mew
Seeing those wild Pokemon swarm the area and ruin the fight was annoying but at least it showed Nyabiko that Liko and Roy are actually good people
inu_no_taisho
The way Nyabiko treated Liko and Roy just because of what she heard in the news was frustrating and it is wild how much she thinks she owns Nidothing
captain_keeta_278
This might look like a filler episode on the surface because of the fake Rayquaza story, but watching Liko deal with an obsessive fan who hated her for being close to Nidothing was actually really interesting. It feels like the show is finally addressing the bad reputation the group has from those Exceed reports, and seeing Nyabiko change her mind was a start
haschwalth_halo
Roy telling Liko that she is a real fan even if she is not as intense as Nyabiko was the sweetest thing and their friendship is the best part of the show
EPISODE CONTEXT
Coming off the more investigation-heavy 'Following Traces of Laquium,' where Liko, Roy, and Dot tackled the mystery of Pokémon affected by Laquium, this episode deliberately downshifts into character-driven territory. It serves as a breather episode, letting the cast's personal interests and relationships breathe before the series pivots back toward its larger narrative threads. Expect it to function as a bridge—light on plot progression but valuable for fleshing out the world and its characters ahead of what comes next.
