This week we get to know Mr. Briney and his Wingull Peeko. First, in the Manga, we finally catch back up with Ruby with his rescuer, Mr. Briney and we get another hint at Ruby's capabilities as a Pokemon Trainer.

Then, in the Anime, after a run in with Team Aqua, the gang hitch a ride from Mr. Briney toward Dewford where they deal with a shark attack. Then Ash mirrors my own efforts at Brawly's gym and loses!

What does he do next? How much of the Corphish line to we get to see? And who is hanging out in Granite Cave?

Then, after the episode, we catch up with Murasaki and Beck as entering Saffron seems to be difficult and Murasaki reunites with some old friends.

Next Week:

Rosella and Vi-Vi return to go over their journey through LeafGreen and FireRed as they traverse Mt. Moon and take on the Cerulean Gym where we apparently discover that the 2nd gyms in Gen 3 spell trouble. And...something tragic happens in Shea's nuzlocke!

Thanks for listening, and we will catch you on the next route.
