As you can see, the above trailer heavily features Clemont, the Lumiose City Gym Leader, and his sister Bonnie (sidenote: her Japanese name is Eureka to go with the inventor theme). The female character from the Pokémon X & Y games, Serena, also makes an appearance! Looks like the series will start with a bang!

The vs before battle is a nice touch for the anime,
Isn’t her name Bonnie?
That’s her english name.
i dont like the english name, eureka is so much better
I actually like Bonnie better, it’s a cute name :3
each to their own
i like eureka it’s so epic!
That’s a pretty funny name for a little girl, but it fits so well!
Japanese and their puns.
I screwed up, sorry!
looks like ash is definly going with froakie
Ash confirmed to have a Fletchling! I’m so excited for the XY anime!!!!! I think it’s cool Viola has a Vivillion!! 😀
It could be Serenea’s, she’s been seen with one on her head.
The funny thing is that even though Vivillon seems cool in that trailer, the fact that the first gym leader has it probably makes it an awful Pokemon to battle with.
Also, the trailer cleverly cut away from Ash and Pikachu battling Vivillon to Vivillon battling Fletchling, so we never actually see Ash and Fletchling in the same shot. It seems likely that it is, but I hope that it’s Serena’s instead for a little change (but the two Fire types may dissuade her from Fennekin, which I like).
Just because the first gym leader has it doesn’t mean it will be an awful Pokemon. You should use it yourself before u judge a Pokemon! =_=
I still think the Fletchling is Ash’s, the fletchling could just like Serena like Caterpie liked Misty. Also Serena was sitting on the side of the battle field with Clemont, Bonnie, & Alexa!
Nothing against the regional bugs, but they’re usually awful stat-wise. Beautifly is one of my all-time favorite Pokemon, but I’d never use it on a Wi-Fi team.
You do see Serena watching Ash’s battle, but who is to say that the Fletchling scene isn’t cut and pasted from Serena’s battle against Viola from earlier in the episode since we don’t see Ash behind Fletchling? It’s most likely Ash’s but I do like the idea of it being Serena’s.
I just think she’ll get Fennekin but it’s still a possibility, I won’t doubt that.
Ash confirmed to actually use type advantages in battle!
It’s a miracle!
Ash may not have grown older, but sure as heck grew smarter.
It was about time! He seems to lose experience everytime he gets to a new region instead of gaining it.
when dose the anime start?
17th I think….
thanks
I do like the bit with Pikachu using an electric type move, and how it zooms in and out, kinda like battles for X&Y
Ash is gonna get Froakie and Fletchling huh
Also, are you gonna either cover the ep in pics or put a video for the next ep?
I’ll see what I can do 😮
Bought a TV tuner with the hopes of doing that like one or two years ago but Windows Media Center sucks.
Yeah I do remember you talking about that for the BW series, if you can’t, don’t go to extra trouble if you don’t need to, would like next ep vids tho
so clemont is a normal type gym leader then?
he might be, i dont think it has actully been confirmed what gym leader he is.
Aipom arm, Bunnelby, he could be but more likely Electric….think of like Brock and Croagunk
The anime looks so much more epic in Japan! I’m going to watch this. Hopefully this one won’t be as childish.
to me ash looks alot older than the other animes
Pokemon Origins confirmed for English: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgc81i06qwY&feature=youtu.be
Apparantly the Origin of Pokémon is dubstep.
thats a weird statue. do you think its hinting at a new pokemon?
No, it’s just those ugly statues you see in front of the gym and in cinnabar mansion.
oh, i havent played the original games
Me neither. But they are in FR/LG.
TBH, I would be surprised if Ash DIDN’T get a Fletchling. He’s had like every regional bird so far, why would they bother to change that?
My only hope is that Fletchling gets more personality than the other birds in Ash’s previous rosters. His other Pokemon were all much more interesting.
Oh and yeah, Ash is getting a Froakie. There’s no way he’d go to the lengths he goes to to save the Froakie in the video and it not want to join him afterwards.
Serena gets Fennekin and Ash gets Froakie and Fletchling (later Talonflame).
I don’t really like Sycamore’s voice .S
Finally, the gym battles don’t look one sided anymore. The battle with Clemont looks cool and Viola has a Vivilon which is sweet.
It’s like Ash vs Burgh all over again. That was the best gym match for me in B/W
Bunnelby used Drill Run. Ground type evolution has been confirmed.
Chespin used Rollout. Rock type evolution has been confirmed.
Quiladin used Mud Shot. Ground type evolution has been confirmed.
It doesn’t exactly work like that, but it would be nice and I do see it coming.
Really man? Okay, Bunnelby is the Digging Pokemon, it has a dirty skin, can learn Mud-Slap, Dig and Drill Run. I don’t remember that I said Quilladin will be Grass/Rock. I know that Rollout has been learned most of the Pokemon. Braixen can use Psychic, Psychock, Psybeam and Lucky Chant (I know its not Psychic, don’t worry) so it’s MAYBE a Psychic type. Seriously don’t think that I’m that dumb.
Evidence points at it, but it’s not confirmed. I’m just saying that you can’t confirm a typing based on a single move, or we’d think that Piplup was a Flying type and that Chespin’s evos were the types I mentioned. You shouldn’t throw around words like “confirmed” unless it has been verified by GF. Next time, say, “Oh, Bunnelby used Drill Run, so he probably will evolve into a Ground type” instead of trying to sound like a newscaster and announce a suspicion. I never said you were dumb, just that your statement wasn’t quite correct.
Okay.
#1 Penguins can’t fly.
#2 http://krocf4.deviantart.com/art/True-rumors-384579562
#3 You’re right about the confirmed thing I didn’t use it properly but this is like Clefairy will be Fairy type.
@Jack
I get that penguins don’t fly, but the discussion was about moves that a Pokemon knows predicting its type. What does that list of Pokebeach rumors have to do with Bunnelby’s typing? And Clefairy being a Fairy is likely, but by no means confirmed, and Troll Freak could make it not get Fairy. I’m kinda lost with what you’re trying to say, so I’m done.
That is correct. Penguins can’t fly because they can swim. Other birds can’t swim because they can fly. Look it up.
But doduo is still flying type, and it can fly weirdly enough.
I can’t wait to see Doduo in a Sky Battle.
And Carnivine and Elektross
Elektross will be very good in Sky Battles…
Umm, well it’s not really a trade off, more specifically penguins don’t possess the correct mass or wings to be able to fly, while other birds can’t get their feathers wet. Water birds can swim and fly. I think Doduo does possess wings but how it can fly doesn’t make sense indeed.
No other bird can swim like a penguin does. That is, underwater at full speed. Most other birds can indeed swim at the surface and dive for a minute, but that’s it. Birds can get their feathers wet, that’s why they excrete a waxy substance they spread on the feathers, it is essentialy a watershield. Crude oil mixes with this and removes the waxy substance, so that’s why birds drown whenever a huge oil tanker leaks.
But there was some recent cool research that showed penguins’ wings are adapted to the hydrodynamic flow of water, while other birds wings are more adapted to air. The research concluded that they could only be good in one thing, so that’s why penguins can’t really fly, and other birds can’t really swim.
Well in fan theory, Dodrio uses its other 2 heads as wings to fly: http://www.player-two.com/img/comic/13.gif
Left Head and Right Head are listening to either metal or rock, while Middle Head needs a clear mind to stay focused.
what would happen if flygon used dig in a sky battle
hmmmm i thought it said somwhere that clemont refused to battle ash. maybe he loses realy badly in that battle
In a special trailer, he was seen having a 1V1 battle against Ash. It was his Bunelby against Pikachu and from the looks of things Ash won, so maybe that’s why he chose to battle him?
Yes, Bunnelby can use Drill Run/Dig, Ash will definitely win. -.-
Pikachu took it out in one hit with Quick Attack.
You’re point is? ._.
I don’t know why do you think he took the Bunnelby with one Quick Attack and also there are two different battles.
hmm maybe i heard wrong then.
You heard right. Clemont refuses the Gym battle but not an ordinary battle, they still can battle but Ash won’t get the badge.
that seems a little odd, i wonder why?
Because in the games Clemont is the third Gym leader and the creators want to keep the order.
Double Team looks so cool!!
Wow just wow.
If only we could make cool combos in the games
Like the one i Invented for my Excadrill
The Aerial Iron Drill! (TM)
Areal ace plus an Iron headed Drill run
Major damage!
I hope it has an evolution so I can use bunnelby on my little cup team 😀
Doublade has been added to pokemonxy.com, it can learn Sacred Sword too.
But…but that’s the Swords of Justice’s signature move! I’m sad and happy at the same time.
But…but this a sword.
I know. I just feel sad when a Pokémon takes another Pokémon’s signature move, therefore not becoming a signature move anymore.
I would be so upset if it couldn’t learn Sacred Sword.
I know what you mean, but really it will always be a signature move, just not an exclusive move anymore.
But the fact that it was shared by three Pokemon before Doublade can learn it means that it wasn’t signature-ish in a way.
maybe in that group but..eh. :I
Wait… if Clemont has a Bunnelby, I really doubt he’s going to be an Electric type gym leader. Then, which type is he going to be? Normal? Ground? Steel?… I don’t understand anything… he seemed so obviously Electric.
Cilan has a Crustle and a Stunfisk and they’re not grass types.
Clemont is an Electric type Gym Leader in Lumiose City and his Gym is located in the Prism Tower. In the games he won’t have a Bunnelby.
It hasn’t been confirmed anywhere that Clemont is an Electric gym leader. It’s the popular fan theory but no where near confirmed.
Don’t try and pass things off as fact
Maybe he’s not an Electric gym leader and he’s a normal one instead. Denenne seems to be his, but the fourth episode title seems to indicate that he doesn’t start with it.
Brock is Rock but he has a Crobat, a Chansey and a Croagunk. Cilan is Grass and he has a Crustle and a Stunfisk (in SS27 he might catch a Gyarados). So the anime is a bit different. I’m sure in the games Clemont will use only Electric types.
where is the episode list?
It’s a special episode. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/SS027
Or Brock could… then he’d really be a better Water trainer than Misty (Ludicolo, Marshtomp, Gyarados).
That is the point, he doesn’t need another Water type.
he uses a device called the aipom arm, so i’m guessing, despite colourings, could be normal gym leader/fairy gym leader/ dual type leader.
the animation quality for this series is so fucking excellent
I like how they edited Ash he looks more older now. (but he is still 10)
he’s taller………… thats why he looks so much older
He is more conmfident too.
He’s still up to adults’ waists. xD
Is that how short you were when you were 10.
I’m still that short 14 years later.
I’m 11 years-old and I’m like 5’6.
Why can’t they let him age? He doesn’t have to be a kid to appeal to kids.
Because I won’t allow him to age!
True. I say they should let him be 12-13. Then just stop. Maybe, 14 if they want.
Because if they did then they’d have to keep him aging for the rest of the series. Eventually those years will pile up and he’ll end up a 21 year old weirdo (I’m not saying a 21 year old playing Pokemon is weird. It’s just that if they keep Ash with the same attitude when he’s 21 that’s a little awkward.) You never know how long this franchise will last for. Probably till the end of gaming.
IKR
Indeed, I love the new animations for the moves. but i’m still not getting my hopes up just yet. I was extremely excited for BW and look what happened there, but here’s hoping.
Ash apparently gets Vivillon…?
Also more excited that this trailer had 15% more Sycamore.
Viola has Vivillon.
Sycamore is going to be cool.
I don’t know if it’s already been on here, but Origins will be out in America November 15 but will not air on tv. It will be on Pokemon tv online.
Oh my gosh this is just keeps getting better and better!!!! I’m way more excited about this then I was with Best Wishes. And that animation hnng <3
THAT PIC… SO CUTEE!!!
Alexa is still traveling with Ash!
http://i42.tinypic.com/35hqyir.jpg
I don’t think so, since Viola is her sister ans she knows Ash, she may just watch that one battle. 4 people traveling with Ash is a lot! XD
That must be the case! I was just surprised to see her there!
Ok Ash is getting
Froakie (and used to catch Fletchling)
Fletchling (bound to happen)
Bonnie holds on to Clemont’s pokemon including Dedenne
Bunnelby’s dig / Double Team combo has won my respect
I think it may be a joke about how fast rabbits can multiply.
My thoughts exactly.
maybe it used Shadow clones
Wow, the anime made Bunnelby a lot cuter sounding and cool looking now XD I really hope they’re planning to keep the anime this nice looking. The other seasons were always so rushed looking and reusing action scenes all the time. Like when dragonite would use thunderpunch, they’d use the same clip over and over :l
my favorite was Excadrill’s Drill Run animation
LF a gif of it
wow theres not many people here today
There is a new post. Everyone is over there!
http://pokejungle.net/2013/09/26/pokemon-origins-english-trailer-released/
so what sort of pokemon do you think ash, clemont and serena will get in hte anime.
i think ash will get
froakie, flectching, charazard, pancham
serena will get
fenekin, spritze,meowstic and maybe have a blastoise since she knows ash from pallet town
and clemont will get
dedenne, hepotile, and bunnleby
I don’t think Ash will be bringing Charizard to Kalos. It’d be too powerful and was just in Best Wishes. I don’t mean to hate on it because I like his Charizard, but it needs a break. He’ll probably return it to Charisific Valley and train.
i just thought charazard because they are introducing mega evos so they could it in the anime’s
In today’s episode he left all of his Pokemon at Oak.
okay then maybe not, what pokemon do you think are going to get caught in the anime.
Fletchling, Froakie are confirmed. I hope he gets a Spritzee or a Sylveon. Honestly, I don’t really care Ash’s team because he will end up using new Pokemon that we haven’t seen yet. I would be perfectly fne with that.
if you look on bulbapedia it confirms that charizard is no longer going to be at charicific valley and now it will stay with oak
I read it there. Thanks for telling me. Also, it’s Charizard’s first time staying at Oak’s. I’m surprised it hasn’t stayed there before.
