Thanks, your friendly PM.Net AnimeBot!

Satoshi decides to participate in an open-to-all 'Sihorn Race', a competition where people race each others riding on Sihorn!? Serena decides to coach Satoshi, telling him that her mother is a Sihorn Racer, but...

Summary:
Satoshi and friends are approaching Smillville, where competitions in the Kalos Region's beloved sport "Sihorn racing" are being held. After Junsa tells him that today's race is open to everyone, Satoshi decides to participate as well. And since her mother is a Sihorn racer, Serena takes on the role as Satoshi's coach.

Having learned how to ride, Satoshi is finally ready for the race. But due to the Rocket Gang laying a trap in the middle of the course, the race ends up becoming a mess.

Serena finally joins the team! :)
And some more matters of the past are getting uncovered between Satoshi and Serena. Along with some more information about Serena and her Rhyhorn racing.
Even Satoshi learns some basics of Rhyhorn racing from Serena. Seriously, these two should get married. Inbefore R34. But so far Satoshi seems to be a totally lame klutz when it comes to relationships or even recognizing that she really wants him. Come on, being Pokémon Master doesn't make kids. And There is no Takeshi around for breeding anymore. It's time to get picked up by this nice girl and become the "nuzzling" master as well.

Anyway, Team Rocket does their usual job here, but at least with some brain usage involved. Capturing Rhyhorns in the middle of a race is quite an impressive stunt. And there seems to be some technology of the future involved. Based on small boxes that seem to be interacting with each other, able to create energy fields, control Pokemon or even generate solid metal out of thn air. Completely out of physics, but in this case it could be accepted as.. sci-fi.

And lastly, we finally see Serena battle. I hope she will be a Pokémon trainer and not a coordinator. Contests were watchable, but well.. too much fancy sauce and not enough battling. Come on, this is Pokémon!

My rating:
A fine episode indeed with some important things happening as well. I didn't mind Team Rocket that much in this episode.
I give it 9.
