Uruto joining up with Liko and Roy made me smile, especially since his scary look turned out to be just carsickness after all that buildup
panda_power_138
Sidian using those spheres was actually shocking because he always seemed more honorable than Coral and seeing Garganacl start to break apart made that whole fight feel way darker than usual
kido_knight
Those spheres are basically steroids and watching Glalie freeze over and struggle to move was genuinely hard to watch and it shows how evil the Explorers really are
luffy_legend_54
I felt so bad for Swanna during that match because Dash couldn't even see how much pain her pokemon was in while the crowd just cheered for the power boost
ubagabi_usurper_93
It is crazy how everyone at the event was acting like mindless drones for the Explorers and ignoring the fact that the pokemon were literally falling apart on stage
uraraka_uravity_124
Sidian using that sphere despite always acting so honorable was a total letdown and it shows how far the explorers have fallen since the timeskip
hop_355
The way the explorers kept hitting liko and roys pokemon even after they were down felt so mean and the crowd cheering for it made it feel even more twisted
mogma
I found it hilarious that Ult looked so intense just because of bus sickness and then he actually stepped up to help Roy and Liko
kaepora_gaebora_269
Dash using that sphere on her swanna was hard to watch since she was so desperate for a win that she couldn't even see her partner suffering
hikari_horaki
I am so glad Ult joined Liko and Roy because his refusal to use those sketchy spheres showed he actually cares about his pokemon unlike the rest of the crowd
juromaru_250
Those poor pokemon being in pain from the strong sphere was actually sickening and the fact that trainers like Dash ignore it for power makes it even worse
setsuna_meioh
I hated seeing Coral and Sidian go that hard on fainted pokemon and it made the Explorers feel like actual monsters instead of just rivals
marluxia_454
That battle was a total wash since those spheres are basically just cheats and it felt weird seeing Liko and Roy get knocked out so fast without even landing a good hit
lelouch_lamperouge
I was so worried about Ult at first since he was acting so weird, but finding out he was just car sick made me laugh so hard
levifangirl
You really have to feel for Liko and Roy because they stood their ground against those cheating spheres even though they got wrecked. It was brutal seeing Sidian and Coral act so heartless, but it definitely makes the Explorers feel like a real threat now. Plus Ult smashing that sphere and joining the crew was the perfect way to finish the fight
astolf
You can really tell Uruto belongs with the team now, especially after that epic entrance where he shut down the Explorers' whole presentation
bleach_bankai_459
The way the crowd just cheers while Sidian and Coral keep attacking those Pokémon that can hardly stand up was genuinely unsettling to watch
diablo_demon_155
Roy teasing Uruto about Liko was actually so funny because I did not expect this show to go back to romance hints and it was also great when Uruto finally decided to travel with the group, after he called out the Explorers for their terrible battle style and smashed their little doping toy in front of everyone after his motion sickness cleared up
gilbert_bougainvillea
Watching Ult chuck that sphere into the distance instead of using it on his partner was the best way to show he is a good guy
max_338
Coral ordering an explosion on fainted opponents was just way too much and she is a menace for attacking Liko like that
EPISODE CONTEXT
This episode builds directly on the investigative threads from 'The Pokémon Center Lady,' where the team uncovered potential links between Pokémon illnesses and the mysterious substance Laquium — here, those connections become more concrete and alarming. It serves as a critical middle chapter that escalates the overarching conflict around artificial power enhancement. The revelations and confrontations in this episode feed directly into 'Crash! Team Dragon Rampage!,' signaling that the consequences of the Strong Sphere technology are about to spiral outward.
