This could really have used subtitles like Island of the Giant Pokemon. They also could have refered to Chikorita by name since she's obviously a female. But overall, not bad.

I think in this one episode I could've smacked until the cows come home. He's really so dense that he doesn't know what Chikorita's problem is??? and his reaction when Nurse Joy tells him that Chikorita thinks Ash cares more for Pikachu than it was really kind of cold. He just says "poor Chikorita." I don't know if that was saying it is true but I feel sorry for it or what. But I thought it was kind of well not nice! Poor Chikorita can't for once another Pokemon get the same amount of attention as Pikachu? I felt so sorry for it. It just wanted a little affection. and I don't think Chikorita getting to ride on Ash's shoulder at the end was the way to make amends.

This episode has one of my favorite lines on the show of all time- "You mean there's some kind of new pokemon called therapy?" :D It cracks me up every time I hear it. I miss those dumb Ash moments sometimes.

I'm glad that Chikorita was able to get more under control with this episode. I love how she has a crush on Ash, but at least she started having a better attitude. :) I liked Team Rocket's machine in this episode too, which was at least a bit different from their usual metal ones.

Ash's stupidity never ceases to amaze me sometimes. and then whet it evolved into Bayleef he still treated it like crap. He should be so lucky that (not including Pikachu) another one of his Pokemon likes him so much. This episode was good but Ash was just a big jerk!
 
Chikorita is one of my favorite pokemon because It likes Ash and Pikachu seams to get in its way. I also love how Ash says, "You mean there's some kind of new pokemon called psychology?" It's funny everytime he says that.

There are couple of things about the episode that really put me off:
1) Meowth's attitude
2) Brock's constant flirting towards Nurse Joy

Even though Chikorita wasn't jealous of Pikachu anymore, there were still times in the later episodes where it tries to get Ash's attention

A nice episode focusing on Chikorita and its relationship with Ash and Pikachu. It's nice to see a Joy that's different from the others and is not just a nurse but also has a degree in Pokemon Pysch, I got a laugh out of Brock always flirting with her. It would have been nice to see some subtitles for when Pikachu and Chikorita were talking or at least have Meowth their to translate.

You will be missed:(
I also liked that they actually changed this Joy's look a bit, adding glasses and a different hairstyle.

I love Chikorita and it constantly got shafted by Ash in favour of Pikachu.

No wonder it was jealous.

How could Ash not see Chikorita was jealous of Pikachu? It is pretty obvious.

I really liked this episode. Chikorita is my favorite pokemon! I was glad that Ash was using Chikorita in the beginning to battle the Raticate, as it needs to gain some experience. But I still wonder how Ash never realized that Chikorita was jealous of Pikachu. He already knew Chikorita had a crush on him, and that should have told him right there. And when Ash says, "There is a new pokemon called therapy!?", that made me laugh. I wish we could understand what Pikachu and Chikorita were talking about though. I also liked the new version of Nurse Joy...but Brock's flirting kind of started bothering me towards the end. I also thought Team Rocket's new robot was a little weird. However, I'm glad they got the jealousy thing settled, but Ash needs to do more then let Chikorita ride on his shoulder.
