    Also though I'd make this thread considering it also aired this morning in the UK.

    I found this episode quite enjoyable, a good filler.

    I loved how Piplup was in charge but kept failing and Empoleon took over and Grotle's face during it. =D

    Also, anyone got any idea why Canalave City is made up of a bunch of islands? Not at all like that in the game, I mean it has two sides but it's not 2 separate islands...

    I'll just copy/paste my reply from the other UK discussion.

    "I forgot about the time difference, and I wasn't sure if I was going to do it, anyway.

    I'll let it go, since people are replying here. But, yeah, only Mods should post episode discussions, or people with the Mod's permission. Whenever in doubt, ask.

    Okies?"

    Personally speaking, it doesn't bother me that much, as it's less work for me. At least, for now. Heh.

    As for the islands, well, since when game geography canon mattered? Shifty eyes.

    This episode is really funny! Barry interrupts the motto (hooray!) and wants to fine everyone XD He was so funny, how he said he was the one that found all the Pokemon and then started yelling again when he realised his Empoleon wasn't there

    - Because the dub never translates Team Rocket's lines properly, it's not so obvious that Meowth wanted to join the twerps. I was quite confused how as to why Pikachu got angry with Meowth when he called out to Jessie and James, but my brother and sister weren't, so perhaps I wasn't listening XD.
    - The man on the first boat with Croagunk is wearing the same t-shirt as Bakura.<< No one can wear a long white and blue stripy t-shirt again XD
    - Hahaha, all the Pokemon with Piplup got angry they were led in the wrong direction XD
    - The female Staravia doll was hilarious XD And then when Gliscor comes up, James doesn't have a doll for it XD Ash forgot about Staravia throughout the whole episode XD

    - This is probably horrible mis-counting on my part, but I counted 20 pieces kept o.O There was a lot kept, perhaps all kept, although there was still dub music in there. Even tracks that I thought would be cut, like "Celebi Ippai" and "Kakurenbo Instrumental" were kept

    You made no mistake.... They kept 20 pieces. 0_0 If "Celebi Ippai" is that vocal song, I didn't expect that either. Awesome.
     
    So you managed to watch it already then? ^^ Yeah, Celebi Ippai is the woman humming when Meowth is having a flashback to different Team Rocket blast offs, it's from the 4th movie. This just makes the whole thing with PUSA cutting "Various Thoughts" from movie 9 more confusing.
     
    Oh yeah, completely forgot to mention something, there's a new title theme. There's a different theme when the title comes up, even though Japan's doesn't change (except for certain episodes).
     
    - This episode had me feeling quite green.

    - I didn't expect the fake Staravia to actually work on Staravia.

    - Where did I hear this Team Rocket story before?

    - The twerps found most of their Pokémon randomly.

    - Team Rocket alluded an earlier episod.

    - I've never heard the term "Pokémon" used so much in one scene.

    - Meowth could've actually become a TV star on Pokémon.
     
    I stayed up too late last night... Waking up to hit the record button wasn't fun. XD I got up and watched anyway, though.

    I thought it was good. It was a nice goofy Meowth-centered episode. I laughed when Team Rocket were telling Ash and friends to move during the picture. XD Pikachu's face when Meowth was talking to him was great as well, and we learned to never trust Piplup if you're lost and you want to go home. It's also cool to know Meowth is learning a new move. We even got one of my favorite lines from Jessie:

    "I DIDN'T TELL YOU TO BUY BREAD, I TOLD YOU TO BUY BREAD!"

    Barry's gone, so it's back to our trio of friends again for now. It was a fun episode... I enjoyed watching it. Then again, I enjoy every episode... As said earlier, PUSA(TPCI?) kept 20 pieces of original music, so that's pretty awesome. They really suprised me by keeping that vocal song. I'd also like to say that PUSA's music has really started to blend together. Oh, and we got new title screen music. Isn't it a pretty wierd time to do that, considering the season is almost over and... yeah?

    I can't believe the season is already almost over! One more week(I guess) to go!

    This was a pretty funny episode overall.
    - Croagunk appears on the most random of moments XD
    - Happiny and her herculean strength. XDD
    - Endless Dead Ends FTW! XD
    - Meowth and his cunningness
    - He DID live in Hollywood, didn't he?
    - You had to love the fake Staravia. XD
    - Staravia's reaction after it disappeared was funnier though. XDD

    I watched it a while ago, so I don't remember everything, nor are all my little comments are in order.
     
    The only thing I didn't like about this episode was seeing how Meowth acted when seeing Team Rocket getting beaten.
     
    Wow this episode was quite a catch. :)

    I knew Meowth wouldn't leave Team Rocket, but it was quite shocking.

    It was funny when Croagunk appeared at the end. xD

    If I had to rate it from one to ten, I would say nine. :)
