Pokémon Twilight Wings: Episode 666

Pokémon: Twilight Wings is one of the many animated Pokémon spinoffs out there, fondly remembered by many people for it's use of Galar characters like Allister, Oleana and many more, however, one of the things that made me like it a lot were the two original characters, Tommy and John, they always reminded of other ones like Tom and Jerry or Thomas and Percy from *Thomas the Tank Engine*, so in conclusion, my favorite episode out of the whole series was Episode 6, where Tommy meets Allister and the later helps him apologize to John.

What I never expected however, was that in one of my trips to Japan, I would end up visiting a weird, dirty place near Studio Colorido's (the people behind the anime) headquarters, to see if I had any luck finding something that was worth a lot, but after further investigation of the place, I found a dirty cardboard sleeve with apparently a DVD inside, and then I remembered the show itself had a DVD release in Japan, but when I checked further, the DVD I found was very different to the one released in stores, it had a darker color scheme and it only showed John on it, when actually the official promo art always shows him with Tommy, but I thought it was just an earlier version given to Studio Colorido's employees...

BOY, I WAS WRONG.

When I arrived in my hotel room and before I put the DVD in my portable player, I realized something weird, the DVD itself had three 6 written on it on the disc itself. with only the middle one noticable at first look, but since I didn't pay too much attention, I thought it was just a screener DVD of the 6th episode after looking at it, what followed up next was the worst thing I ever saw in my life.

The DVD didn't have any menu on it, at first it showed a number, 030820, and then it directly started with the shining moon from Episode 6, which made me exited at first until I realized it took about a whole minute to get to Allister looking at the moon itself, and plus you couldn't hear any music at all, but then, Allister finally came, which was pleasing to see at first, after a few seconds, however, I saw Allister crying out a weird purple substance from his eyes, which looked pretty realistic despite the anime's cartoonish appearence, which really disturbed me a lot.

After a full 30 seconds of seeing Allister crying purple tears, we then finally saw Tommy walking in the graveyard, which then went normally up until we saw Tommy getting scared by all of the Pokemon Allister had, I completely forgot about the fact I was watching the Japanese dub of the series and then I heard Tommy's HORRIFYING scream, but this time, it was EXTREMELY LOUD, to the point I actually turned down the volume in fear someone in the hotel would think I was being assaulted, it was even louder than when I watched it on Youtube.

After hearing that earrape, the episode proceeded normally, albeit strangely being in English despite the earlier scream, but then, in the flashback involving Tommy and John's discussion, at one point, Tommy actually says "FUCK YOU" to John, who then proceeded to say "FUCK YOU TOO!!!" to Tommy, and I do remember that the OG episode had Tommy throwing a shoe to the floor, but instead, in this version, he actually THREW IT to John, directly hitting him in the face, which made me wanna take out the DVD out of fear, but when I pressed the button, nothing happened, I was trapped watching the creepy version of the best TW episode in my opinion, and it kept being scarier after that, Tommy then proceeded to run towards a nurse's room and stole a bunch of needles from there, and proceded to call Allister to help him kill John, which was surprising and confusing, considering it was a flashback scene, then, Tommy and Allister took out some of the stolen needles and proceded to outright stab John in the heart and in the eye. literally screaming in pain, it was definitely the most disturbing thing I ever saw.

After finally killing John, Tommy and Allister literally stayed silent for a while, but them, Tommy started crying out of nowhere, why did it happen? Didn't Tommy start hating John?

Allister proceeded to calm down Tommy but in vain, as it stayed like that for a while until a jumpscare of both characters happened, which made me jump in horror, and then, to close down the horrifying scene I just watched, there was a Japanese text in a black screen saying "The Twilight Wings will lead us to the best of places if we were nice and respectful, Tommy and Allister were not like that...".

Then, it just faded to black, and the disc tray finally opened, and after that, I've never managed to play the DVD again, I think I left it forgotten after I returned home, and while I still enjoy Pokemon Twilight Wings, this was the scariest thing I've ever seen and don't wanna remember it again.
