Hello Pumello! (113)

[schrik]

How can the never-trained tauros be nearly better than the suposed-to-be-one-of-the-best-trained-pokemon?

By the way, why does all Ash's pokemon seems unbeatable?

 

[Igottapoo]

It's a shame that a powerful Ice Beam was countered by such a puny attack like Night Shade. Poor Lapras. Good battle, btw.

 

[firework]

good ep overall, nice battle
great climax for the orange series, very excit
5/5

 

[Blue Snover]

I thought this was a great battle, i think he would have won a little faster if he'd used another pokemon instead of Tauros, because it's never been properly trained.

Dragonite and Pikachu was a great match.

 

[Littlemyuu]

Drake is a cool trainer
i really loved this episode!

 

[Ice T. Sackboy]

Pretty cool episode because Ash now challenges the Champion of Pummelo Island. Once he picks his Pokemon, he gives Champion Drake the best of luck.

 

[Tadashi]

Mmm, that Drake guy... pretty good-looking regional champion. In keeping up with tradition, this is good ^^

Man, I loved Drake's Ditto. What a Pokémon to open a match with, and it was so fun to see it battle against Ash's Pikachu. Plus, it was awesome to see Lapras actually do battle ^^ A decent opening episode all in all.

 

[Ash-kid]

Pikachu was amazing, as usual.

and Squirtle also, of course.

Gengar's moves was pretty strong.6/10

 

[popcorn dragon]

Its nice how much they honor Dragonite in this episode.=) Ditto should be able to have pikachu's voice, but then we wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

 

[Lorde]

Yay!! Finally, Ash in a full 6 on 6 battle, and against a strong opponent; the Orange Crew Leader.

I thought this and the next episode are the best in the anime. First round, Pikachu's speed really impressed me. Ditto didn't stand a chance. Second round, Squirtle did well against Onix, even using Hydro Pump.

I was shocked to see Lapras versus Gengar. It ended in a cliffhanger. 10/10

 

[Afan]

I really liked this episode because it showed Ash in a full pokemon Battle.
The whole experience was very exiting to watch.
Great episode

 

[Vernikova]

I really like this battle. It's always nice to see a 6-on-6 battle in the animé since those don't come along too often and this was one that i think was pulled off pretty well.

 

[G50]

This was an awesome 1st half battle! Tied for my #1 favorite 2nd season episodes. Very cool cliffhanger at the end unlike in other cliffhanging episodes. I liked how Pikachu beat Ditto because it had far more stamina. The way Squirtle went from Withdraw to Hydro Pump was awesome!

98/100

 

[Swagga09]

They made the battle wayy to easy for Ash

 

[Nibbles4Ever]

I love these episodes for one reason. DRAGONITE!!!

There are a few things I found odd about this episode. Firstly, Ash and co. are shown the Hall of Fame, which honours winners of the Orange League but then shortly afterwards, the official says that no-one has ever beaten Drake. So if no-one has ever beaten him, why are there winners' statues at the Hall of Fame?

Also, how was the official able to tell that Ash was from Pallet Town just by looking at his badges?

The Hall of Fame honors people victorious in the Orange League "forever". It is assumed that the people in the Hall of Fame had beaten Drake's predecessors rather than him. He seems pretty young to have been the Gym Leader for too long of a time.

When the official scans Ash's badges, photographs of Ash and his badges appear on a computer monitor. There is text underneath the presumably told him Ash's hometown.

 

[CliveKoopa]

But Ash's pokedex is his ID, not the badges. Badges are just badges. There is no mention whatsoever of the gym leaders tapping into the badges like a computer and adding Ash's details.

 

[Blessed]

The first 6 vs. 6 battle in the anime, and the start of a perfect battle. An awesome first battle!

 

[AquaMilotic]

The first 6 vs. 6 battle in the anime, and the start of a perfect battle. The second episode with this battle was more entertaining, but this was also awesome! When I saw this for the first time, I was so excited to see the second part! 10/10!
