We go from the Satoshi VS Shirona battle to the 3rd clip show in as many months. This is not going to help the shows ratings or hype.

A lot better episode than last week. It seems like they are a little too focused on Satoshi in the finals rather than all the finalists. At least they showed the whole full battle for Satoshi VS Shirona.

Wow! I was really disappointed in this episode. They spent over half the episode on Satoshi/Shirona side quest to find a missing girl instead of the audience seeing the actual battle between Dande and Carne. Leave that kind of work to Junsa!

It's more and more apparent that this was done to reduce production costs associated with animating a Full Battle. We didn't even get a half a battle this time.

If they want to increase viewership, stop making the anime plain and ordinary with subpar production and animation.

This blatant attack on players by limiting Remote Raid passes and limiting Community DAY to 3 hours instead of any 3 hour block during the day is really Niantic attacking their own player base and making Pokémon GO a game that needs to have governmental review for safety concerns.

So if in your area, there are thunderstorms during the 3-hour block, you can't really participate in the game. 11am-2pm is the heat of the day. The SW USA is getting 100f+ temperatures already. They are forcing play at a given time, despite any safety concerns that maybe at that time period. But no, you must play between 11 and 2PM even though early morning or early evening has less UV.

I will be adding a warning at the beginning of all Pokémon GO articles from this point on that in anyway restrict Remote game play or limit the time of day you are required to play.

Niantic should call these new anti-social features as all that changing having a cheap raid token a week and raising the price of the 3 pack remote raid bundle does is make it harder for people to actually play with friends. Many people DO NOT WANT to play with strangers in local raids. Setting up local raids with enough players will be even harder now because often remote players were helpful to boost the player counts to get a successful raid.

Not everyone lives in mega cities with gyms on every block. Also, many of our friends live around the world, 1000km's away, in countries that STILL have travel restrictions in place, making it impossible to play locally.
