Don't Touch That 'dile - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When Ash and friends are with Nurse Joy when she is holding Totodile, Ash has gloves on his hands, but when Ash's image appears on a yellow screen, the hand portions of his gloves disappear, making it appear as if he was wearing wristbands. (00:19:22)

Kogane Gym! Speed & Power!? - S4-E1

Continuity mistake: When Ash uses his Pokédex to find facts on Miltank, his right index finger is on the top of the main portion of the Pokédex while the one below it is near the top, but in the next shot, the former is near the top while the latter is at the centre. Also, in the latter shot, the buttons on the Pokédex are ten millimetres away from each other despite being five millimetres away three episodes before. This is due to the latter shot using the same positioning of Ash's hand as seen in "Hot Matches!" (00:16:01)

Pokémon Fortune-telling!? Enormous Melee! - S3-E41

Other mistake: When Ash and friends are surprised when they see the Day Care workers removing masks, the edges of a Sentret's ears are mistakenly coloured medium-brown instead of dark-brown. Also, a Sandshrew has an entirely yellow face when the bottom half should be cream. (00:12:22)

A Differently Colored Yorunozuku! Catch It!! - S3-E38

Other mistake: When the Pokédex tells facts on Noctowl, Ash's right ring finger and the one above lack a separating line, making it appear as if they are fused together. Also, the angle created by the screen and the identifier is a 130° angle, but in the next shot, it is a 170° angle. Additionally, Ash's right index finger is at the top of the section with the screen, but in the next shot, it is more in the centre. (00:02:08)

Abra and the Psychic Showdown - S1-E22

Continuity mistake: When the camera pans up to show the Sabrina doll as Ash and friends are running, Pikachu abruptly shifts right briefly before returning to his previous position. Also, the centre cloud is above two others on a set, but in the next shot, it is below them. (00:16:05)

Set Out to the Sea! Line of Chonchie!! - S5-E3

Continuity mistake: In "Around the Whirlpool", when Ash uses his Pokédex, the top button like a line is five millimetres wide and ten millimetres long, but when Ash uses it in this episode, the button is one millimetre wide and five millimetres long. Also, the end of his left thumb and index finger are entirely covered by the Pokédex, but in the next shot, they are not. (00:01:47)

Question: This is a question for the XYZ series. I can't figure out if Alain is a good guy or a bad guy. He acts like he is good but I am not so sure if he really is. Can anyone tell me if he is good or bad?

Answer: He is a good guy but just found himself in a bad situation when he worked for Lysander. He didn't want him to harm Ash and his Pokémon when he was trying to get the special bond between Ash and his Greninja to work. He does leave Lysander and go back to being a good person.
