Summary

Japanese Summary:

タイレーツを調査しにガラル地方を訪れたサトシとゴウ。そこには、息が合っていないタイレーツが。ひょんなことからそのタイレーツはバラバラになってしまい、ゴウはリーダーであるヘイチョーを助け、サトシは他のヘイたちを助けることに。どうやらヘイチョーはうまく指揮できないことに落ち込んでいるようで…。リーダー不在の中、ピカチュウがまさかの展開に…!?

Japanese Summary Translation:

The leader, brass, of a group of Tairetsu, Pokémon that work together as 6, has gone missing due to its self-doubt as a successful commander... so with no leader around, Pikachu makes a surprising decision...?!

Satoshi and Go have gone to the Galar region in order to research Tairetsu. There they find a group of Tairetsu that's completely out of sync. It turns out the Tairetsu accidentally got separated, so Go goes to help the brass, the leader, while Satoshi helps the other troopers. It appears the brass is depressed because of its inability to command the troopers well.... so with no leader around, Pikachu makes a surprising decision...?!

Note

CoroCoro Comic's Official website posted an article about this episode just before the original airing on July 16th, 2021. They also tweeted about the page on the official CoroCoro Comic Twitter account to promote it.

It's almost time for Anipoke! The brass's orders are absolute! Pikachu is now the leader of the Tairetsu!
The anime "Pocket Monsters" will start airing soon! It airs every Friday at 6:55 p.m. and it is very popular! In this article, we'll introduce you to the Pokémon and characters that will appear in today's episode, as well as comments from the voice actors and director, and other Anipoke information you won't find anywhere else! In today's episode, we have a new encounter with a Pokémon from the Galar region!

Satoshi and Go hear about the Tairetsu from Professor Sakuragi which are a group of six Pokémon that work together as a team and move like a single Pokémon! They want to see this! So they immediately headed to the Galar Region... there they are! There are a lot of Tairetsu lining up!

pic

▲ The Tairetsu have a leader called the brass and five Pokémon each called troopers!

Among these Tairetsu, Satoshi and Go find a Tairetsu whose movements don't move in sync. Just as they're wondering if it's still new to the team, something happens and the Tairetsu get scattered! So Satoshi goes after the troopers, and Go goes after their leader, the brass!

pic

▲ Hmm...?

Satoshi manages to find all of them, but to his surprise, they line up behind Satoshi's Pikachu and don't leave! Is this an instinct the Tairetsu can't resist?

pic

▲ Pikachu is bewildered by the troopers who keep following him no matter how far he runs!

On the other hand, Go chases after the brass, but the brass seems to be depressed that he can't lead them well. So Go lined up his own Pokémon behind the brass and trained it to lead!

pic

▲ Go comforts the brass, who is depressed at his own inadequacy. Then it's time for training!

pic

▲ There's big guys here, but we're going to practice commanding Go's Pokémon as if they were troopers!

pic

▲ Uh, who are you again...?

So, what are the results of Satoshi and Go's training with the Tairetsu? Will they be able to keep up? In today's episode, a Pokémon appears in front of Satoshi and his friends! It seems to be a Pokémon that comes from a very cold place, but is it really...? (It might be mixed in with this article!) Everything will be revealed in today's episode!

▲ん…?
サトシはなんとか全部のヘイを見つけるが、なんとヘイたちはサトシのピカチュウの後ろに並んで離れなくなってしまう!! 
これはタイレーツの抗えない本能なのか!?
▲走っても走ってもどこまでもついてくるヘイたちに困惑するピカチュウ!
一方、こちらはヘイチョーを追ったゴウだったが、ヘイチョーはどうやら自分がうまくヘイたちを指揮できないことに落ち込んでいる様子。
そこでゴウは自分のポケモンをヘイチョーの後ろに並べて、ヘイたちを指揮する特訓をすることに!
▲自分の不甲斐なさに落ち込むヘイチョーをなぐさめるゴウ。ならば特訓だ!
▲なんかデカいやつもいるけど、ゴウのポケモンをヘイのつもりで指揮の練習だ!
▲え~と、キミは誰だったっけ…?

After Story

The official Japanese Anime PR Twitter account posted an After Story comic on July 18th, 2021 by #もじゃクッキー @mojacookie

Pretending to be Tairetsu is trendy at Sakuragi Park.
Today, they're competing to see how fast they can go.
Pikachu, playing the role of brass, is also very motivated.

今日は、どちらが早く進めるか競争しているようです
ヘイチョー役のピカチュウ もやる気満々
