Shōgo Matsumoto (松本翔吾) announced on their X account on October 20th, 2025, that they worked on this episode.

This week's Pokémon episode features not only myself working on it but also Inoue-kun and Goto-san. Following last week's contributors, Ishizaka-san and Tanaka-san, I was grateful for the opportunity to work with the younger members of the team. I look forward to working with you all.

今週のポケモンは自分以外にも井上君、後藤さんが参加しています。先週の石坂さん、田中さんに続き、若手の子達に機会を頂けて感謝です。よろしくお願いします。

Shōgo Matsumoto (松本翔吾) later announced on their X account on October 24th, 2025, that they worked on the scene with Uruto and Yamirami as a single shot.

This Uruto scene where he shouts, is just one shot, but I did it. Hope I could help out the juniors I am teaching. My students Inoue-kun and Goto-san are also contributors to this episode, so please support them!

このウルトが叫ぶシーン1カットだけですが、やりました。教えてた後輩の手助け出来たかなー。教え子の井上君後藤さんも参加させていただいてるので、よろしくお願いします！

Yusuke Oshida (忍田雄介) posted on his X account on October 24th, 2025, indicating he worked on this episode.

Did you catch all three special episodes? For today's episode, I contributed to the action scenes working on the Storyboards, as an Action Supervision, and a Key Animator!

This episode was made possible thanks to the incredible support of everyone at ZEXCS, starting with Matsumoto-san, and the many animators I personally invited to join us! Thank you all so very much!!!

特別編連続3編ご覧いただけましたでしょうか？本日の回はアクションパートのコンテ協力、作画監修、原画と参加させていただきました！
松本さんをはじめゼクシズの方々や、個人的にお誘いした沢山のアニメーター様にご協力いただけた話数となりました！本当にありがとうございました！！！

Nobuhiro Nagata (長田信博) posted on their X account on October 25th, 2025, that they worked on the Lucario scene.

I only participated in the 2c pre-explosion and explosion scenes. I was thinking that I couldn't draw Lucario well from that angle, but when I submitted my LO, what I wanted to draw was included in the revisions, and I was really moved.

爆発前と爆発カットの2cだけ参加させていただきました この角度のルカリオ上手く描けないなぁって思いながらLO出したら描きたかった物が修正でのってて感動してました
