Why is this JNS05?

Shouldn't this episode be considered a special episode outside of JN? This episode isn't really a part of that series, being set in the alternate universe. Ertym06 (talk) 12:54, 13 January 2023 (UTC)Ertym06

The special aired during the journeys series so is considered a Journeys special, it isn't long enough to be a Movie so it counts as JNS05.--BigDocFan, Junior Admin Bulbapedia (talk) 12:55, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
Additionally, both Journeys and this special use the same "Pocket Monsters" logo (minus the Japanese text that says "The Distant Blue Sky" right under it). PokemonMasterJamal3 (talk) 13:02, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

Placement

While this special did indeed air in Japan between JN136 and JN137, I don't think the epicodes for those should appear in the "PrevNext" section as it's not part of the main series continuity. Espicially since JNS01-04, which unlike JNS05 are still set in that continuity, don't have links for JN093-94-95 outside of the trivia section.--Ricbolog1310 (talk) 12:30, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

I think we should wait and see how the dub handles it. If the dub releases it as part of Season 25 which could happen due to it being easier to distribute internationally than releasing it as a separately-licensed product to dub and distribute, we'll keep it that way for sure. If it doesn't, the Mega Evolution Specials are listed as part of the PrevNext navigation due to being central to the series' plot. In the end, it'll be up to the staff to decide what to do with this episode. TheEliteMaster (talk) 08:33, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
oh so the dub will consider this to be the final episode. curious.Roserade57 (talk) 08:35, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

fourth time mention of father

Should we also list the first three times? Ash's article lists EP002 as a reference so I assume that's the first, just not sure 2nd or 3rd. ty (talk) 16:49, 13 May 2023 (UTC)

a list of those would sure make sense on a page dedicated to his dad..Roserade57 (talk) 21:57, 17 May 2023 (UTC)

Source

Is there any source regarding the English title and air date of this episode? Shadab Kun Alt (talk) 13:56, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Much of the dub titles/airdates have been coming from OnTVTonight, so yes:
