Death of Ink

I do miss Misty's earlier traits before the stereotypical takes of being "the mom" took over, wish they had run with those ones more strongly.

So glad this got your highest score as I consider this the best episode I’ve seen. Even as a child I felt how much more mature and deep the message was than if she had just been cured. I also always felt connected to this one, seeing as how a childhood trauma gave me terrible ichthiophobia, but I still love aquariums

What you showed was an Ultra Ball

Drew Luczynski

I was wondering how you’d handle this episode. Turns out more than I thought

Gungelion

Oh I agree. This has to be one of the most well-handled storylines in the series, if I'm being honest.

Ah, it was so great to see this episode covered. While I have been very critical of a lot of Shudo's other episodes in Johto (I'm looking at you, The Light Fantastic and The Art of Pokémon), but this episode is Shudo at his A-game. While I do find there's a bit of a pacing issue with how it lays out Joy's backstory, I'd say overall this is a very well done episode that handles its subject matter better than most. The only other show I know of that did something like this oddly enough was Sonic Boom, where Sonic's fear of water was a recurring plot point and while he did handle his fear in an emergency situation, he did made it clear that not only did he still have his fear, but that it actually be worse now. TL;DR, this episode is well deserving of its Master Ball rating and easily the best episode of the entire season.
