I was surprised to see a Noctowl of a different color. I was even more amazed when Ash caught it. I didn't think he'd get another bird for quite a while.

Fun episode about Shiny Pokemon, it was good. 9/10

Of course he was going to get another bird pokemon fast! Heracross can only do so much lol. It was just a shock that Ash caught it! Plus, the science guy is funny.

This was a great episode! I was so glad Ash finally caught a shiny Pokemon, especially since it was a Noctowl! Had to feel bad for the science guy though, he tried forever to catch it himself. The Hypnosis effect on them was hilarious!

70/100

Ah yes, another scientist episode. Those are usually pretty good. It was pretty cool to see Ash capture an alternate-colored Noctowl though when I was first watching at I didn't notice that it was any different. I actually thought that that was Noctowl's regular color for some time. Anyway yeah, a nice episode since I like Noctowl.
 
This episode is so funny, especially when Noctowl hypnotized Ashyboy. Nice to see a Shiny Pokemon, and great to see Ash getting Noctowl. I think Noctowl should've gotten more screen time. I liked the wacky scientist, those characters are often funny. Just like Seymour and Oswald in Kanto. 9/10.

I actually found this episode quite boring, even though it was interesting to see that shiny Noctowl. And Ash capturing it! It was quite funny to see Psyduck achieving nothing!

What I like about this episode that they introduced Shiny Pokémon in a according way and also, Ash got his first - and to date - only Shiny Pokemon he or any main character ever possessed. Noctowl is definitely a serious and a dignifying Pokémon. That is why for the (almost) characterless flying Pokémon Ash ever got, this one got at least a bit of character and therefore, I find Noctowl awesome!

It took them this long to finally let Ash get a Noctowl. ._. Well, I'm glad he got the smaller Shiny one. The regulars aren't that interesting to me.

...Did you just diss the regular Noctowl? You wanna go pal? I has a well. D:< D8 /just joking
I loved Ash's shiny Noctowl. My favorite of his regional birds. :D

Awesome episode since this marks the first time that Satoshi really obtains a shiny Pokémon. Hope that he will get another one in the future although shiny Pokémon are rare. Very funny to see that Koduck got a headache but eventually no attacks were executed.
 
Cool to see Ash catch a shiny Pokemon instead of the usual normal colored ones. :)

Let's go to the beach, each.
I really liked that Noctowl put up a struggle at first and didn't want to be caught willingly. I also liked the COTD's personality as well as his plan to use Noctowl's Hypnosis against it via a mirror. Anyway, I thought that Pikachu versus Noctowl could've been better, but at least Ash caught Noctowl regardless.

Meh. I like Shinys as much as the next person, but I wish that Ash had just gotten a regular Noctowl here.

I actually like the normal coloured Noctowl design more than the shiny one as well, but at least Ash caught a new pokemon. My favourite scenes were the ones where Noctowl hypnotized Ash and Dr Wiseman. :3
 
It seemed sorta late in Johto for Ash to catch a new Flying Pokemon, though I liked Shinies so I was proud that Ash caught this Noctowl. :)

So Ash captured Noctowl and it was a Shiny. I appreciated the sparkle effect and it was hilarious when Ash was seeing illusions. 7/10
