    Hey all,

    I've been on hiatus in Pokemon fandom for... quite a while, but I want to return! I really haven't watched the anime since Hoenn began (aside from occasionally catching glimpses of the dub), and I was wondering what eps from Houen and Battle Frontier I should watch as a returning fan.

    I particularly am looking for eps that have crazy plot devices (i.e. Satoshi turning into a Pikachu!) or good character development or important story events. If you could suggest some good episodes--some of your favorites--for me to hunt down, I'd really appreciate it!
     
    I suggest probably something like the Satoshi's gym battles from the Advanced Generation and for Kanto Battle Frontier probably the following:

    Start at:
    The Scheme Team!
    The Right Place at the Right Mime
    The Symbol Life (Satoshi fighting at the Battle Factory)
    Battle Tower! Telepathy Battle!!
    Ash VS May! The Last Battle! (This is coming out in Japan now but is a very good episode)

    If you like going through contests then the highlights are the Grand Festivals of Houen and Kanto.

    Houen:
    Hi Ho Silver Wind!
    Deceit And Assist!
    Rhapsody In Drew

    Kanto:
    Begin! Pokémon Contest - Grand Festival!
    May VS Harley! Double Battle on Stage!
    May VS Drew! The Final Battle!

    Hope that kinda helped,

    !!**Alex**!! :chu:
     
    I agree with the suggestions Alex had. For me, the most entertaining episodes were the contests. Episodes I liked in Hoenn:

    A Poached Ego! (TR character development! Huzzah!)
    Which Wurmple is Which? (I found this one amusing and fun)
    Gone Corphishin' (Corphish is a wacky pokemon!)
    A Corphish Out of Water (Again... Corphish!)
    A Mudkip Mission (Brock development! Hey, it's RARE)
    Now That's Flower Power (Torchic's antics are fun, and some May development)
    Win, Lose, or Drew! (Contest episode!)
    A Pokeblock Party! (I found it fun and interesting)
    The Princess and the Togepi AND A Togepi Mirage! (Misty returns for a 2-parter, and it's a weird storyline)
    Pro & Con Artists! AND Come What May! (contest!)
    Disaster of Disguise AND Disguise da Limit! (contest again!)
    A Double Dilemma (a fun storyline with hilarious TR disguises)
    Love, Petalburg Style (adultery in Pokemon? XD)
    A Fan With A Plan AND Crusin' For A Losin' (contest!)
    Pokeblock, Stock, and Berry! AND Lessons In Lilycove (another contest!)
    A Cacturne For the Worse! (contest and the intro of Harley, a rather... interesting fellow ^^;)
    Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow Snorunt! (Ash catches Snorunt, a cute and mischievious pokemon)
    Do I Hear A Ralts? (Max character development)

    I also recommend the Grand Festival episodes, and the Hoenn League tournament too. ^-^
     
    Yea well this isnt really a episode request for downloads is it? This could just be for buying but I will add one more to the list: Ash Vs May the Final Battle where May's blaziken evolves!!!! Yea... again for battles the battle frontier episodes
     
    hmmm. I'm suddenly remembering the episode where tailow evolved into swellow. lols. that worked pretty well for me... :P
     
    Cool, thanks for the tips, guys! Yeah, I wasn't really looking for placed to download eps, just a list of good eps to watch.

    I'll definitely check these out!
