A random blog where I ramble occasionally about completely pointless stuff. Oh, and all the titles are are lyrics for some reason :P

Ash catches a Pokémon!

One has to wonder if there's any point in having a cliffhanger if it's going to be revealed in the title.

The third episode, and it's another good one. Team Rocket is already leaning towards comic relief territory here, though. Sure, they might seem slightly threatening, but after they get defeated by a Caterpie, finding respect for them is like the Village People in the changing room...I'll let you figure that one out.

It's nice to see Ash behaving as a normal trainer, though. He makes a stupid mistake but eventually succeeds, despite the fact that he manages to win basically though luck rather than skill. In a way, it's more satisfying than the more recent "Look at my incredibly complex strategy" things because it feels more realistic, more obtainable, almost. At least until you remember that a giant green caterpillar is beating up a snake, a cat and a floating mine by spitting silk at them. My ELOT is below.

Spoiler:
- THIS THEME SONG IS SO AWESOME
- Does Ash not realise how much Caterpie SUCKS?
- Did caterpie just say "Yatta" when it saw misty?
- Carrots and peppers?
- THIS SCENE IS TOO LONG AND STUPID AND ANNOYING
- "Soon I'll be a beautiful butterfly, and then Yugi will love me!"
- "It'll be a long time before you're a Pokémon master"...oh Misty, how right you are!
- Pidgeotto did surprisingly awesomely
- Wait, why doesn't Misty do anything?
- Doesn't the Dex say that touching its horn makes it release some kind of foul stench?


Next time - Challenge of the Samurai! (I'll try to go easy on the "Harden" jokes)
