Pokemon Journey, Episode 76

*watches the episode* .......... Did they just spell "Pokémon" wrong in the sign behind fake Joy in the Team Rocket Scene?

Will Ash be able to overcome the female fury that is..."Flower Girl Gary"? Find out next week, same Suede time, same Suede channel (that being Vimeo, till YouTube gets it a fortnight later). :D

Indeed you are, a SuperBunnyBun. ;)

I am a bun!

SuperBunnyBun

surprised you didn't point out that the Pokemon In Love posters were from the movie Ash n' Friends ran into and helped make a few dozen episodes back.

SuperBunnyBun

Wait. A fellow person who agrees that Kanto is G/S/C isn't Postgame, but is still part of the main campaign? Wow!

DeScruff

It's a filler episode. A more day in the limelight episode considering how ordinary of a day Ash has (aside from Team Rocket, but that's normal for Ash). I think this episode is supposed to highlight what Ash does in-between Pokémon League battles since it's the kind of stuff that gets glossed over in favor of actual League battles. This goes hand to hand of the idea that Shudo hated battles being the focus of Pokémon.

LOL. It's good to see some folks knowing who the final boss of G/S really is despite what the modern fandom may tell you.

You know I'm starting to remember, as a kid it was around this point when my friends and I started disliking Ash. Instead of conversations on what kinda Pokemon Ash could capture, or cool ways he could win, it started to become "How to beat Ash" or "How would you beat Ash." He became sort of a Rival to us. Which coincidentally made the end of Pokemon Silver feel extremely satisfying.

DeScruff

Aww heck yes, the next episode is the Bellsprout one.

Wesley Foxx

I'm a little surprised that Suede didn't mention that this episode shows one of the rare instances of Team Rocket referring to Ash by his name instead of twerp.

Timothy Whitfield

He's really been banging them out.

Michael McKinney

I feel the need to point out a minor error here. That 13 second cut with the Clefairy dolls is something that only seems to apply to the North American DVD and Pokemon TV versions. The scene was kept for the broadcast, streaming and Australian DVD versions.

Verdant Range

Huh, that was fast production.
