Talk:DP071
Ash captures Riolu?!
- Here? Doubtful. Pretty much anyone who believes Ash is destined to have Riolu believes that Ash will get Riolu via an egg, and said egg will be handed out around Iron Island, or possibly Canalave City if the anime decides not to visit Iron Island. Granted, stranger things have happened--Happiny's egg, which should have come around Hearthome City and going to Dawn, ended up coming before Eterna City and went to Brock--but I think we're too early to think about Ash actually getting Riolu. --Shiningpikablu252 04:42, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
- Especially since he just battled Lucario like four episodes before... TTEchidna

Trivia
Would it be better for the fact that it is aired on the day that Ranger 2 will be released in the Trivia instead of the top?-Billy4b2004 07:31, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
- The reason the episode is airing on that particular day is because of the game's release. It's a pretty big point. --FabuVinny T-C-S 17:14, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
Floatzel
I see its listed as in this episode does anyone think Buizel will evolve in this one Ash could use an evolution and Buizel is the strongest member of his current team if you ask me. Bobtherandomguy 22:40, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
- Ash's Buizel's listed for part two as a Buizel, so odds are that either Buizel's not evolving here and/or DP071 is actually an hour-long episode like AG171 was and listing the episode as two parts is incorrect. Besides, we don't know how far off Pastoria City and Crasher Wake is, so we probably still have plenty of time before the expected Floatzel vs. Floatzel matchup. --Shiningpikablu252 23:15, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, you're right, it's a one-hour special.-Billy4b2004 02:53, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
About the blood...
Weren't the last times that someone was bleeding on-screen a human? Isn't Riolu the first Pokémon shown bleeding? TTEchidnaFire echy 06:05, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
- I think I saw Pokémon bleed before. Like the Nuzleaf from Leave it to Brocko!. --File:Ani048MS.gifケンジFile:Ani183MS.gifガールFile:Ani123MS.gif 06:10, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Game
Is no one going to mention that this episode was based on the Riolu mission in Pokémon Ranger Batonnage? --☆ケンジガール 01:11, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
Crossing Paths
I have some doubts that this is the dub title for this episode. Given that this episode and DP072 aired in Japan to correlate with a game that won't be available in America until November, it's quite possible that "Crossing Paths" is actually the dub title for DP073. Given how AG171 (the hour-long Ranger 1 episode) was bumped forward in America to correlate with the first Ranger's release, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if "Crossing Paths" is DP073 and not DP071. --Shiningpikablu252 15:51, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
- I think so, but before August 23 we cannot do anything --Nick. 02:20, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
- Further more who thought "Paths" was incorrect. "Pathes" isn't even a word, as far as I can tell. Unless I'm misunderstanding something. --Dman dustin 02:55, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
Consider this, the American title for DP72 is "Pika and Goliath!"... Don't you think that "Pika and Goliath!" is for DP074 and "Crossing Paths" is for DP073? And... I think that we'll see the Ranger special in November... --Nick. 05:08, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
