This article is about an episode of the Pokémon anime that has not been dubbed into English. As such, its coverage may contain romanized Japanese names, rather than dub names.
Currying Favor and Flavor! (Japanese: カレーなバトル!ラランテスの舞!!A Beautiful Curry Battle! The Dance of Lalantes!!) is the 35th episode of the Sun & Moon series, and the 974th episode of the Pokémon anime. It first aired in Japan on July 27, 2017 and is scheduled to air in the United States on October 14, 2017.
Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.
When Ash performs his Z-Move pose, he isn't shown wearing his backpack like in the previous shot. This is likely because the animation was taken from previous episodes where Ash does this pose.
Additionally, Ash's Z-Ring is shown equipped with the Electrium Z throughout the battle, but it changes into the Normalium Z when Litten uses Breakneck Blitz.
