Recap / Pokemon S 18 E 17 Confronting The Darkness

Go To

Ash, Serena, and Bonnie reunite with Clemont in Lumiose City. But just as Ash and Clemont are about to start their gym battle, Officer Jenny shows up and arrests Clembot for theft! Believing in its innocence, our heroes must figure out who or what is framing Clembot in order to get it out of jail.

Tropes:

  • Evil Counterpart: While Clemont’s Clembot cares about the condition of his Pokémon, Dark Clembot doesn’t care about its Pokémon and only cares about winning.
  • Hollywood Law: Officer Jenny says that alibis from friends aren't reliable. Does it really matter where an alibi comes from if it's the truth?
  • Imposter Forgot One Detail: Clembot has a dent on its head. Dark Clembot doesn't, as it was created from Clembot's specs.
  • Internal Reveal: Clemont is shown that while he was gone, Fennekin evolved into Braixen and Sliggoo into Goodra.
  • Red Herring: Clembot is arrested for a crime he didn’t do.
