Gettin' Twiggy With It (473)

and his head chomping habit was stupid and looked painful.

It was a comedy gag however, so I doubt it was meant to be painful to Ash any ways hee hee. Not that I liked seeing it happen myself cuz it reminded me of Carvinine, but still. ^^

It was startling to see an episode begin with a Rocket-dan scheme already in progress, and Naetle won me over when it protected Pikachu and brought him fruit. Yukino giving us Naetle's backstory made me even more sympathetic, and I loved that the Rocket-dan's Koiking submarine was back. Naetle biting Kojirou's Muskippa literally made me laugh.

Turtwig seemed too much like Bulbasaur, even its backstory was almost the same. I wish Ash hadn't caught him though because I didn't think it was a good choice.

I think Naetle's similarities with Fushigidane were written on purpose in order to give Satoshi's Shinou team a structure reminiscent of his old Kanto team. In terms of Naetle's behavior though, I thought he was miles ahead of Fushigidane as far as his energy and cheerfulness were concerned.

I loved Turtwig so much. He reminded me of a mix of Bulbasaur and Treecko. He has endeared itself to me already with its personality and range of emotions. It's already a good battler too.

Turtwig was like Bulbasaur because it was a protector and it was cute how it showed Ash affection by biting his head. But out of the Sinnoh starters it has always been my least favorite one.
 
TURTWIG!!!! I love him so much!!!!!

Everytime I hear the song “Gettin’ Jiggy With It” I think of this episode

I'm rewatching this on Pokemon tv rn and I died at them complimenting Piplup for doing literally nothing. Dude watched Ash do all the work, and don't get me started on that Linoone that instantly bounced when TR showed up
