I was honestly in tears watching this. I think this review made me laugh more & laugh harder than any other SPJ episode yet!

Think you need to fix the episode number to 118

@Corey Simmons THANK YOU! Yeah, when I actually watched that Snivy episode, it was one of the biggest face palms I’ve ever done. Not because of the episode, but because of the fans reaction to it. When pikachu battled Snivy, Pikachu was suffering from a freaky illness given to it by a legendary that made it UNABLE TO USE ANY OF ITS ELECTRIC ATTACKS. It was also periodically experiencing weird zaps of pain from said illness, and I’m willing to bet all of that made Pikachu dizzy and disoriented. I doubt Pikachu could have defeated a Dunsparce in that condition, let alone a freak’n starter, which are usually a bit stronger than your average wild Pokémon.

heeeyyyy I remember casey

...reasons being Zekrom...

Leaf Storm

Really, almost every region since Hoenn had that dynamic.

Will Herrmann

It's may be worth noting that Charizard vs. Chikorita is pretty much the whole reason that Ash starts over with just Pikachu in every region starting with Hoenn (Ruby & Sapphire). Yeah, it hurts to see him just abandon all his Poké-friends with Professor Oak, but without that, it's hard to justify why he isn't curb-stomping every battle from here on out (and even then we *still* got stupid stuff like a Snivvy who has never battled beating Ash's Pikachu for…reasons).

Like Dawn in Diamond & Pearl?

This episode has I think the biggest missed opportunity in all of Johto. The ideal plot choice in my mind? LET CASEY JOIN ASH's GROUP. Think about it- a rookie trainer paired up with a seasoned veteran , learning the ropes and actually catching new stuff that comes along. How great would that have been??!

Will Herrmann

One idea for the ending gag will be Casey using her trumpet like a vuvuzela while the others try to talk. I’m sure there are other fun things to do too. Maybe a quote from something like Rookie of the Year.

I don't remember much of Johto but I do remember this one. Casey and her Chikorita are adorable and I laughed for about a minute at her scandalized gasp when Ash insulted her team.

also yeah this is a review for episode 118

World's Greatest Bard

lol this episode is one of the reason to never pick the grass type in johto

Will Herrmann

I love Chikorita (actually, Bayleaf is probably favorite Johto Pokémon), and I loved seeing it so happy while Casey is singing the fight song! Especially considering she's only had it for, what, a few days tops?

The 1st appearance of the greatest starter don't @me! And somebody made a 10 minute version of the burning Chikorita just in case you agree with Suede BTW.

This was always one of my favorite episodes. Being a die hard Pittsburgh Pirates fan I relate to Casey big time. Honestly Ash has been a bigger jerk before, but there is something visceral that occurs in me when someone mocks a Baseball team for its reputation of losing.
