Rossymore's Update of the Week: 27th May

[Rossymore]

Okay, it's been a while since I've done this (December I think), so this one will contain the news from the past two weeks, instead of just last week.

Anime
Are you someone in England who has watched very little Pokemon movies? I know I am. Anyway, tomorrow (May 28th), the 12th Movie will be showing on Disney XD. It starts at 17:30pm and, beforehand, four episodes of Pokemon: Galactic Battles will air. It's the Team Galactic Trilogy...and another episode.

DP180: Satoshi VS Kengo! Sailing for Respective Roads!!
DP181: Treasure Hunter - Baku & Yajilon!
DP182: Eve of Battles! Satoshi's Pokémon Gathering!!

The anime episode titles recently revealed. DP180 will feature a battle between Ash and Kenny. DP181 will be the debut episode of Buck and his Baltoy. Finally, DP182 will be the gathering of Ash's Pokemon as he prepares for the Sinnoh League.

Last but not least, the first episode of Season 13: Sinnoh League Victors will begin on June 5th, with DP158: Regaining the Home Advantage!

Gaming
Pokemon Black and White details will be coming over the new few weeks. I'm definately looking forward to this Generation.

Misc.
'Zelda Informer, part of the network of Zelda fansites that ally with NIWA, will be hosting a Pokémon tournament in the coming months. The tournament, similar to the Gym league in the Pokémon games, will feature twelve players from the Zelda Informer community. There will be eight "Gym Leaders", who have a range of skill and training, as well as an "Elite Four", who will be the best of the best with regards to Pokémon battling in the Zelda community. The rules will be based off of the official Nintendo rules of competitive battling.'
Just in case you were wondering.

The Second Pokemon Movie (Pokemon The Movie 2000) is available on iTunes. Yay.

Finally, a new section of Bulbapedia called 'Origin of Species' has been made by George Hutcheon. He explains where and how the inspirations of certain Pokemon came about. Some were due to Japanese myths or by really strange creatures. Such articles have been made about Wooper, Castform, Mawile, Manaphy and Phione, Sanshrew and Sandslash and the Turtwig Family.

That's all for this week, ta-ta!

(Spoiler:)
At least they called Season 13 Sinnoh League Victors as Dawn, hopeless as ever, fails to win the Grand Festival.

Make sure to watch the Grand Festival arc as well if you watch the Japanese anime!

DP174: The Grand Festival Begins! The Art of Flame and Ice!!
DP175: Mammoo, Pachirisu! Decide on the Ice Chandelier!!
DP176: The Semi-Finals! Who is Heading to the Finals!? (Imaginitive)
DP177: Decisive Battle! Hikari VS Nozomi!!

Oh my God! They killed Kenny!

But 'On the Origin of Species' still tells nothing about Shiftry. I mean, it's based on a Japanese monster, too, named tengu. Well perhaps there are also other Pokemon left and they have yet cover them.

On the Origin of Species is a very well-written set of articles, and I do hope George continues that.
