1. Ash/Satoshi having his fist up instead of open hand. (Also Kiawe/Kaki’s face, look at it!)

2. Brock/Takeshi beats down Bakugames. Not really small detail as it is, but it’s no wonder Ash/Satoshi’s suprised, last time we, the audience, saw Brock/Takeshi, he struggled with gym matches, and almost caused his gym to close down (he hadn’t really been an active battler when Sinnoh journey ended). This is like, huge step up for Brock/Takeshi! And thus the whole fight is absolutely amazing! It’s a detail that is told via expressions and not words.

3. The face of someone who’s never seen Mega Stone vs The face of someone who’s seen Mega Stone. I honestly loved this.

4. Lana/Suiren enjoys Rain. Why of course, she’s Water Type Specialist.

5. How everyone’s suprised about Ash/Satoshi asking Pikachu to climb the Hurricane….

except Brock/Takeshi. This man has traveled so long with Ash/Satoshi, he knows when he’s up to something.

I don’t think it’s a wonder I love this episode, is it?

6. Kukui’s laugh at Ash/Satoshi’s cleverness. This never stops making me smile. ♥
