    Here is where you can discuss the official debut of Team Galactic in the apt title of "Enter Galactic!"

    My review to come forthwith.
     
    I say this episode was alright, not importent episode execpt Galatica in it. Now for review.

    - Toxicrouk's voice sounded like a monster to me
    - Finally a good match for Crogunk to face with :D
    - OMG, Team Rocket stared at me for a moment at the end of the episode XD
    - Now we know what was with that Galatica building in Veilstone City.
    - Ash was smart not to get cocky for the rest of the Badges to earn.
    - Woah, what a big map of Sinnoh.
    - It looked like that, Crogunk was Poisien Jab on Brock's crotch XD

    I give this epsiode a 7/10.
     
    The biggest thing that scared me was the voice quality of crogunk.
    Now we know when it get's high, it sounds like PUSA changed it's voice XD

    and what was with toxicroak and crogunk?
    Is crogunk as angry at this own evolution as meowth is?

    I think they are trepeating the same attitude for team galactic as for Magma & Aqua.
    It's repeating.
    like the future leaveing of dustox. BUTTERFREE REPEAT FTW.

    and Saturn's voice was so quiet, I didn't know what he sent out until it came out.
    and before toxicroak stood up, it looked like a bad fakemon O.O"

    but, I liked it.
    7/10
     
    Oh wait there are 2 episodes since Dawn's battle?
     
    Is it just me, or does the title for this episode sound like a Metallica song?

    And why didn't the Pokémon Center have Faraday cages for its Pokémon? And why didn't law enforcement have VHF of HF communication links at its disposal, or even shielded wired communications? Sinnoh's infrastructure seems to be extremely vulnerable!

    From now on, a state of war exists between the Sinnoh Republic and Team Galactic.

    Does anyone know of any SAM dealers near Lake Valor so Ash can shoot down one of Galactic's Chinooks or Sea Kings*?




    *Those two aircraft resembled the three helicopters used by Galactic.
     
    Cool episode, kind of.

    - I swear, the scribble text IS looking more and more like Japanese. Perhaps the Japanese animators are seeing how much they can get away with until it gets "too close"? Anyway, the idea that writing it in English instead of Japanese makes it more international is kind of stupid. English= the world?

    - YAY Paul! He's already at Pastoria!? I say "already"...but it's been about 60 episodes I suppose
    - Why is Reji so nice to Paul when he's being mean?
    - 2 episodes went without Team Rocket saying their motto. Saturn wanted to make it a third. Hurrah!
    - He was too late...
    - lol Jessie's random faces
    - Silence again
    - And again?
    - And AGAIN? haha

    Ash: Mmm! Water types!

    LOL

    Meowth: Wowzer

    That's the second time today I've heard that phrase randomly (the 1st on a programme called the Gadget Show). Is everyone watching Inspector thingy or something?

    RB Opening
    Haruka's Dream (I think?) Movie 9, anyway
    Sinnoh Team Rocket Motto Theme
    Movie 9 (don't know which)
    Gekijouban (no idea which one XD) Perhaps movie 9?

    Somebody did a good attempt of putting in the original music from a scene for this episode

    - Why is Reji so nice to Paul when he's being mean?

    Probarly because their brothers o.o and Reji probarly knows how Paul is, so he's either grown to like it or grown to tolerate it, which it is.

    Anyway:

    -Team Galatic full appearance finally!
    -I know right?
    -LOL at Crogank with Toxicroak, kinda like a brothers quarrel
    -Saturn's dub voice is....surprizingly...sexy? o.0
    -Saturn FTW!!
    -Hey! Pikachu and Electabuzz are actually working together! Awesome!
    -Because Pikachu saved it from all those Golbat, its got new found respect for Pikachu
    -Yeah bout damn time too
    -Poor Team Rocket....never even got to say their motto....ROFL YAY!!!
    - O.o
    -Wonder if Brock will have a Toxicroak by the end of the DP saga?
    -It's pretty much been trademarked by Saturn so I doubt it.
    - Oh... ; ;
    -Paul's in Pastoria already?!
    -I don't think so, in a future episode *cough Scorching Chimchar cough* he was near it, but he could have gone there alrerady, or was getting close.
    -Theft of meteorites.....oddly familar?
    -Reji is such a cool guy to be able to tolerate that jackass Paul

    Episode 9.5/10
     
    the episode was alright my imo but i was too distracted by their hair. the only real interesting point was the staredown/battle between toxicroak and croagunk

    Haha, that makes no difference to me. If I was Regi I would've started yelling
     
    The episode was okay. Saturn's voice just sounds monotonous. Really low and somewhat deep. If you saw when they went to the meteroite field, there were several of them, but why did Team Galactic just try to steal two?

    7.5/10. Just seemed like another filler epiosde...
     
    That Toxicroak was shiny, It looks like the shiny Sugimori Art too. I have a shiny Toxicroak too. Any way, I love the organization Team Galactic has in this episode compared to anything we have seen Team Rocket do.

    I know there is a song that is kinda techno-y that repeats Intergalactic. I can't remember who sings it or what it is called. Su.

    Now this was one good episode. I mean I was kinda worry that the beginning was being a bit rushed but really I can see why they rush it since they needed all the time they needed for the action. Just by seeing this episode, it in no way could have been a two parter so one episode it is!!! This episode really pulled out a lot of good stops.

    Teeheehee Poor Team Rocket. They didn't get to say their motto. Su. Also I didn't notice that Team Rocket hasn't said their motto in the last two episodes. Su. I guess they were that great of episodes. Teeheehee

    Now this was an important episode. I mean not only did it introduce us to Team Galactic but it finally gave us answers to what was going on the last time they made an appearance. I have to say that this was very intresting and then the mention of the Red Chain. I can betcha that Ichi would be happy to hear that they didn't forget about the Red Chain, I think it was him who said something about dropping the Red Chain from the anime storyline, but it seems like Galatic is going to use it and now it is up in the hands of the writers. Teeheehee

    It seems like Team Galactic are a much more firece and serious team compare to Team Magma and Aqua which will lead to intresting things in the upcoming appearneces. The writers seem to have did a good job in keeping them secert this long and by revealing them it only left more questions as in what they are doing. Super coolies.

    What really got me questioning was, did Team Galactic took any meteorites? I could have swore I saw some of the meteorites go into the helocoptors but it seems like according to Ash and Jenny that they didn't get away with any. I am kinda confuse.

    Super coolies on the coolies dub title! One of the best ever!!! teeheehee I repeated that title because I wanted to hear it being said over and over again. Teeheehee
     
    I thought they took one too because they only got two back.
     
    Enter... HOLY CR...

    Oh. Man, I gotta lay off the late night snacks. I almost thought you said Enter Galactus.

    Of course, my prediction still remains the same. They'll show up occasionally, and not really do much at first, except act really serious. Then they'll have their three episodes of glory, where they seem dangerous, but afterward disappear without a trace.
     
    Yeah, the teams in the anime are only a brief concept.
     
    I was really hoping they'd at least HINT at Deoxys with the meteorites.

    The Croagunk v Toxicroak part was actually pretty creepy. XD they kinda gave Toxicroak a similar personality to Croagunk.

    Also, the part about Dawn and her contests kinda intrigued me. Obviously, from her voice and Piplup's reaction, she hasn't been working on it at all. I look forward to seeing how that plays itself out.
     
    I also felt as if there was a mention of the Veilstone Rocks there would have been mention of the relationship with Deoxys.
     
    it was an alright episode. The best part was Maylene was in it with Lucario!

    the Toxicroak/Crogunk fight was weird. But not as weird as when Brock was screaming when the dark pulse was going towards him.

    I wish they would show Cyrus. He is the only person i want to see from team galatic
     
    I was really on the floor when Brock was jumping around when that Dark Pulse was coming at him. It almost seemed like they didnt edit it from his Japanese voice.

    I don't know, as Aqua and Magma were just as serious. Izumi threatened to electrocute everyone with the Weather Institute's satellite by creating lightning storms, and Homura had no compunctions on hitting Max and character-of-the-day with a Shadow Ball, nor cared if they fell to their deaths. Plus, Magma actually succeeded in two missions (Slateport and the WI), with the WI mission being done with surprising competence (thanks, Bannai). Not to mention, both groups got Groudon and Kyorge without Hoenn imploding beforehand, which isn't a small feat.

    Secrecy is important for an evil organization, yes, however, don't mistake it for the writers not doing anything with said organization The real irony is that, in the games, Galactic is the most publicly featured organization in its respective region. They have a great media campaign, no one suspecting a thing and are able to function out in the open. Surely, as we're 70 episodes in, we would have heard a Galactic media promotion or something, right (lest I'm wrong, and someone can correct me)?

    I'll wait until the next encounter before I claim any true assessments, as I want to figure out the writers' pattern and approach. However, with the lack of substantial presence (at least, do secret scenes like in "Sphere of Influence" for dramatic irony), it's difficult to care about this group, if at all.

    As for them actually succeeding with the meteorites via exposition, we'll have to wait for Dogasu to fine tune all that. Or go bug Bulbapedia.

    Now, is this Galactic plotbunny going somewhere? Looks that way, but don't prolong it, either, writers. Galactic should be more than a mere footnote, which they are right now. I'll go with SBaby's analysis on the rest.

    And, if it helps, I'll try to do more Fantastic Four references for your benefit. And lay off the late night snacks! The Mod commands it!

    And, Jorah, yes, "Wowzers" is an expression uttered by the protagonists in Inspector Gadget.
