The pokemon moves even looked better in this series! Alot more animation was added! Alot more fights looked movie level. I'll also put the new Alolan pokemon forms here, as they offered new animations with new moves, and while I wasnt a fan of the new forms, I later learned to enjoy them, especially when PoGo started adding them!As well as Ultra beasts. The soft animation worked for the series and even the pokemon looked good in it.

Heck even the pokemon have character development! Mimikyu learns to get over its hatred of pokemon, Litten proves to trust Ash, Lyconroc learns how to get over its anger, Ash BECOMES A POKEMON CHAMPION FOR THE FIRST TIME!!!!!Heck we even get to watch the adults go through character development! Including minor characters!!! Its honestly so well written!!They even added a new world to explore, which gave me serious Pokemon Platinum vibes with the realm giratina is from XDThere is SO MUCH packed into 3 seasons of anime!Animation is 7/10I say this because I HATED the animation when I started, but the more I watched, the more I enjoyed it. It has character development, on both the good and bad side. Story:I am giving the story aspect a 9/10Reason being, is that my husband and I agree that out of the last 4 different seasons of pokemon we watched with our kids, that we prefer this one. I want to point out I have NOT played the Sun & Moon games, and I have seen all 3 seasons, so this WILL contain SPOILERS!!!! Also I watched it dubbed, not subbed since my kids watched with me

Pokemon sun and moon free to watch
