In Summary:
This volume is summed up best by the old adage "if you've seen one, you've seen them all". The focus is on training and picking up new friends along the way. This seems to be the formula for the series; train for a number of episodes, have a gym battle, and then start training again so new Pokémon are introduced. The formula makes it easy to jump into the series at any point but makes watching volume after volume a bit tedious for a more mature viewer. For a younger viewer, if they have seen one and liked it, they will most likely keep watching no matter how repetitious the series becomes.
