This article is about an episode of the Pokémon animated series that has not been dubbed into English. As such, its coverage may contain romanized Japanese names, rather than dub names.
(Japanese: ライバル決戦！サトシゲッコウガVSメガジュカイン！！Decisive Rival Battle! Satoshi Gekkouga VS Mega Jukain!!) is the 128th episode of the XY series, and the 927th episode of the Pokémon anime. It first aired in Japan on July 28, 2016.
Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.
This episode marks the first time Ash has ever gotten into the finals of a Pokémon League Conference.
XY&Z is used as an insert song during Ash's battle against Sawyer, when Mega Sceptile and Ash-Greninja are battling each other.
This episode marks the first time Goodra is knocked out during a battle since its capture.
Errors
After Pikachu makes contact with Aegislash's King's Shield, the animation of Pikachu's Attack stat dropping moved up instead of down, making it appear that the stat was being raised instead of dropping.
When Pikachu returns to Ash after defeating Aegislash, his bruises from the battle disappear.
When Slurpuff uses Cotton Guard, the animation that showed her Defense stat drastically raising was blue instead of red. Red indicates a stat increase while blue shows a stat decrease.
When Ash commands Greninja to use Cut to counter Sceptile's Leaf Blade, the scoreboard displays Ash's Noivern and Sawyer's Salamence as the two who are currently battling. Due to this, the scoreboard displays Pikachu as being still able to battle despite being knocked out previously, and Ash's Goodra and Greninja aren't on the scoreboard, despite having been used and defeated, and currently in battle, respectively.
When Mega Sceptile uses Frenzy Plant on Ash-Greninja, Greninja's giant shuriken is colored dark blue like the stars on its legs instead of light blue for a few frames as it falls.
Before Ash has Greninja use Cut against Mega Sceptile's Frenzy Plant, Ash's Pikachu is shown standing next to Ash, but is also shown on the right-hand side where Ash placed him after being defeated previously.
