Quite disappointed that Zubat was caught off-screen. Clefairy evolving was exciting, despite that. Otherwise, a decent one.

Yup agreed I can only guess that time was a factor and the show's writing staff didn't have enough time to show him catching it which is a shame however. ^^;

Well like Lorde said, there was that long Clefiary dancing scene at the end which could have been made shorter to save time for the capture of Zubat.
Seymour's whole character felt annoying to me since his voice was grating and the Clefairy evolution scene was the only memorable part to me.
Ha ha iirc Maddie Blaustein voiced Seymour the scientist and although I liked the voice, I didn't think Seymour was needed other than to explain Mt Moon's environment to Ash's group.
I didn't know who his voice actor was but this is interesting. And he also explained what the Clefairy were up to like when they used Metronome so he did have a purpose after all.

Good episode: My favorite scene was when Team Rocket stole the moon rock and when the Clefairy began evolving due to it.

Seymour's Pokemon coming from outer space theory makes sense and I wish that Brock had been shown catching Zubat, but nooooo.

I liked how Mt. Otsukimi looked like a cone, which made it distinct from most mountains in the anime. And while Rikao was a nice character and all, his presence here didn't add much to the episode. The Pippi dancing around the Moon Stone was enjoyable however, as was Kasumi's short bout against Nyasu.

For a filler episode, this was pretty entertaining. I thought it was funny how Seymour was triggered by being called "mister" at the beginning.
That added a bit of convolution retroactively, especially when Seymour butted heads with Meowth. XD Too many of Blaustein's early voices were just Meowth's but with a different accent (see also Damien in Charmander's debut).
Similarly after the voice switch, Nathan Price voiced the professor in the Slowpoke episode where he reads a cue card sucking up to Meowth.
Poor Onix's track record is brutalised again by being outstrengthed by Koffing.

How did Koffing even injure Onix? Like I vaguely recall James telling him to use Counter, though Koffing never even used said attack after this episode.
I think James meant for Koffing to counter Onix's attack, not actually use the move Counter.

Lol, that makes much more sense, thanks. Idk why 4Kids had James phrase the command to Koffing that way, though. It just caused confusion.

I liked the Clefairy; I thought they were really cute. And the part where some of the Clefairy evolve after being exposed to the Moon Stone was pretty neat.

It was our first stone evolution too, even though the Moonstone looked nothing like it does in the games.

In defense of Takeshi's Iwark's loss, it was facing off against a slightly more competent Kojirou than we're used to seeing these days. So I found it somewhat believable that Kojirou's Dogars would be able to take on Iwark without much difficulty.

My personal head-canon is that the Moon Stone present at Mt. Otsukimi's summit is the source of all Moon Stones, at least in Kanto.
