AG125: Difference between revisions

{{spoilers}}

The episode starts with the group on the deck of a ship, with [[Ever Grande City]] visible ahead. They've finally reached the site of the [[Hoenn League]]'s [[Ever Grande Conference]], where {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who have earned their eight [[Badge]]s will test their abilities. There's one week to go until the tournament starts, and {{Ash}} has some serious training to do. But as {{an|May}} points out, there's something else to do first. Get something good to eat. Namely, ramen.

Some time later, as the group makes its way down a narrow back street somewhere in the city, [[Max]] asks his sister if she's really sure the shop is in a place like this. As she expresses her certainty, and the others express their doubts, we see that the group is being watched by a flock of {{p|Murkrow}}. A few moments later, one Murkrow steals the guide book, and the rest of the flock attacks. {{AP|Pikachu}} drives them off temporarily, but more swoop down to take their place. The cycle continues until a {{TP|Tyson|Meowth}} - one wearing boots and a hat - comes to their rescue.

Next comes a scene in the ramen shop, where the Trainer, named Tyson, tells Ash that he, too, will be in the tournament, and so they're rivals. Tyson and {{an|Brock}} exchange the standard set of compliments over how well the Meowth has been raised and the quality of Brock's Pokémon food. The conversation continues, with bonding between Tyson and the group, until Tyson notices the time. He has to get going, or he'll be late.

===Pokémon===

* This episode begins the seven-part [[Ever Grande Conference]] arc.  

* The title is a reference to the saying "Like a moth to a flame".

* This is one of the few times {{MTR}} "blasts off" at a different time from [[Jessie]] and [[James]] at the end of the episode.

** It is also one of the times when Team Rocket blasts off without saying "Team Rocket's blasting off again!" - and they don't say it either time they blast off.

* In the {{pmin|Latin America}}n dub, [[Tyson's Meowth]] has the same voice actor as Team Rocket's Meowth. However, near the end of the episode, it has the same voice as in the English version.

* Like the [[Indigo League]]'s torch, the Hoenn League's torch gets its flame from {{p|Moltres}}.

===Errors===

* Question: Trainers, What humble Pokémon does {{p|Kingdra}} begin as?

* Choices: {{p|Misdreavus}}, {{p|Horsea}}, {{p|Marill}}
