I just loved this episode! Not just the tragedy, but also the fact that it finally explained how meowth became anthropomorphic. It was very interesting. The part about learning to walk update made sense to me--I mean any quadrapetal pokemon could probably learn to stand upright for better attack stances and all--but the part where he is transition from normal pokemon speak to full english enunciation is still an inigma to me.
"Meowth meowth meowth meowth, meow meowth meowth."
"Me melsh me mells my me memore."
"She sells seashells by the seashore."
IC: "Man, I'd love to know what synapses where firing in his little brain while that golden moment was happening. The data from that could lead to the development of an Anthropomizing TM which could revolutionize the whole world by allowing all pokemon to be able to stand upright and fully enunciate human speech patterns! I must find out for the sake of the P!! M!! C!!"
IMO, Meowsy was a stuck-up trollep. (I'm using the archiac term to avoid from sounding too rude.) Becoming poor taught her nothing. She's not too good for you Meowth, YOU'RE TOO GOOD FOR HER!! That persian will probably leave her on the side of the road with a belly full of LV0 meowth kittens someday, and then she'll pay for rejecting Meowth.
I also liked how TR gave their dance off after the movie screening was completed, that was amusing.
I also love character development episodes, and this one was no exception and it's also my fav of all the char dev eps. Well, that's all I have to say about this episode for now.
