Only one episode so far but it’s waaaay better than I expected.

We have an introverted protagonist who overthinks, is shy, awkward etc. Pretty relatable lol.

I’m sure the other main protagonist will be extroverted and Ash-coded but so far so good.

She is also just a complete noob. It’s nice to see that. Makes me wonder how she got into the School but eh. It’s Pokémon.

I’m not going to spoil anything else about the episode but it has a nice “lived in” sort of feel where Pokémon feel like an actual part of the world. The show has always done this way better than the games and it’s nice to see that continue.

Overall. Pretty decent. I’m looking forward to the next episode!
