Oh memories! the first episode of the new adventure for the gang, with this I'm finally starting to watch my newly-acquired Orange League DVD, I'm so ****ing happy!!! :D

Well this was another amazing episode, haha the opening still is the Gotta Catch 'Em All, Ash says not always he can loose! LOL :p They finally reach Valencia Island after a very trainwreck travel!

10/10 Great and exciting start!

Didn't really like this episode. Balancing out the blimp was really funny especially when heavy Onix was really tipping the blimp almost all the way over.. Was definitely a bad place for Togepi to get lost in, good thing Misty got it back. It was not a bright idea to even get on the blimp in the 1st place.

5/100
 
You know, I thought for sure that Ash was going to send out Charizard the way Brock sent out Onix!

When you think about it, wouldn;t geodude have been a bit too heavy as well?

Wow, for (technically) the official beginning of the Orange Islands arc, this one could've been a bit better.

It was okay, but not too great.

This episode freaked me out a lot when I was younger. When I saw how broken down the blimp looked, I was certain that something would go wrong when they were flying in it. I was also convinced that they were going to crash horribly and die for some reason (because I would have been like 6 when this aired o_O).

I did like the parts with Jigglypuff, especially when it was a "ghost." I also like how this episode began the Orange Islands arc, because I was eager to see what they were like.

Bad episode. Why didn't Team Rocket stay on the Blimp Brigade anyway? Team Rocket wasn't amusing and Jigglypuff wasn't funny. The tipping scene in the blimp was meh at best. There was not one redeeming quality in this episode.

First episode of the new journey and we get to see my favourite animé Pokémon, Jigglypuff! I liked the idea of the Blimp, although I don't see how Togepi got that far in such a short time... considering it's size. Team Rocket, as usual, made this episode fun. I never seem to get bored of them. :3
Why make Bulbasaur hold Misty when it could have just Vine Whip'd Togepi down...?

A good episode to start the gang's journey into the Orange Islands. It was scary when they were in the blimp and I loved Misty's determination in finding Togepi when it wandered off. The whole blimp thing was just ominous in general because of what was said by it. Well, at least in the end they made it to their destination.

An exciting start of the season. Jigglypuff had a very cool role in this. Good that Misty refused to leave without Togepi, that shows her love for the egg, which is a great thing. One of the worst Original Series episodes, which means it's great, so 8/10.

A nice introduction to the Orange Island Series with a interesting synopsis. I always mistakenly confuse this with that other episode at the end of the Orange Islands series for some apparent reason lol.
 
It was kind of said for Giovanni to purposely set The Trio up like that. But, it was good to see Ash commanding all the Pokemon to go left and right to steer the blimp. It reminded me when they were on the St Anne and he told the Pokemon to go to the other side.

A grood start of the Orange league saga. It's odd that Giovani made Team Rocket in charge of the blimp, I liked when Misty was worried about her Togepi.
After seeing the condition of the blimp, I knew it was gonna crash ........ and it did. But at least it crashed on Valencia island, where Ash, Misty and Brock wanted to go.
 
It always amazes me how, being a baby Pokemon, Togepi never seems to get easily scared over everything.

Let's go to the beach, each.
I love episodes where TR pull off crazy schemes, hence why I loved that they tricked Ash and friends into boarding the blimp. I usually dislike seeing Pokemon getting lost, but Togepi made it work since it added to the chaos and comedy of the situation. I didn't care for Jigglypuff though. I was done with its singing by mid-OS.

I liked how Team rocket set up the blimp ride as a plan to steal Pikachu it was just so convoluted but funny. Togepi getting lost made things more intense also and I liked how Jigglypuff appeared to help. ^_^

I liked how Togepi was so fearless lol. It literally could have died during its little adventure on the blimp, but it didn't bat an eye. ;)

I liked that too, although it seemed like he was more naive than fearless to me ha ha. I was nervous when Misty was walking on the metal rail to get Togepi tho since her rope didn't seem too secure.

We saw an actual daruma doll which was neat and I liked how Jigglypuff followed Ash and co on the blimp. Togepi getting lost was boring. 6.5/10
 
Togepi becoming lost was my favorite scene since we saw some intense stuff while Ash's friends went looking for him on Giovanni's blimp.

Watching Satoshi's journey to the Orange Archipelago on the Rocket-dan's new dirigible was enticing. I liked seeing all the antics on board, like when Togepy went missing, and then when the storm happened. The crash landing on Daidai Island scene was pretty hardcore, too. This was a really good episode.

I liked how TR thought that they were getting a promotion despite the fact that they've done nothing to deserve on throughout the entire series. I also liked Misty's determination to find Togepi too and her use of Ash's Bulbasaur to get Togepi.
