Okay, seen the episode.
-They played Harley's GAAAAAAAAAY music from the Grand Festival. A shame, I was hoping it would be his music. :|
-Mudkip, for starters. People, the moment we've all been waiting for. Mudkip gets some screentime. Some decent screentime. AND ACTUALLY DOES SOMETHING. He gets to fire off an attack, (Water Gun.) walk around for pretty much the whole episode, and is the key to helping Ash find Onix who has captured the rest of thr twerps.
-Heh, Corphish goes BESERK at Gonbe because it eats all the group's Pokemon food. Actually fires a Bubblebeam against it, heh. It misses, sadly, and hits May's Squirtle, who proceeds to fire a Bubble attack back.
-However, Goedude, (Who has a new, less deeper voice.) does NOT miss, and hits Gonbe with Rollout sending it flying. Geodude then becomes the new hero of Pokemon.
-They missed a chance to have May in a bikini again. :/ The twerps found a stream at the start, which they could have had May take a dip in or something. ._. We sadly miss out of it and have to endure the crazy Pokemon antics.
-Bearded Ash... was a result of Team Rocket giving Onix some garb about Ash being evil or something, heh. XD Onix imagined Ash with a beard, laughing and generally being evil.
-Geodude attack and the group becomes seperated. Well, actually... it's just a selection of the groups Pokemon which go missing. Forry, of course, not being one of them. (Pikachu, Squirtle, Corphish, Gonbe and Phanpy.)
-Which, may I add, takes up a LOT of the episode. It's another of the 'goofy' episodes, with lots of 'crazy' goings on, apart from the fact they ain't funny.
-THAT bouncy peice of crappy music from the Donphan episode plays over and over again, annoyingly. You know the one. -_- I know Gravy does, at least.
-Squirtle does a Bulbasaur and runs around a flower field smelling flowers. We then see Beedrill AGAIN. And yes, Phanpy uses the attack to fend them off.
-Some crap happens, and they meet up with the rest of the groups Pokemon,
including Gonbe which is eating all the apples in a tree.
-James... heh, his scene alone in this episode is great. He really evils it up, to the point where I was actually giggling. He knows he has an audience to entertain, and does his job. XD Talking dramtically, almost to the camera... great stuff.
-Had some interesting peices of other music though. I swear, they were playing something out of Neon Genesis Evangelion at one point, later on when Ash was talking with Onix. It sounded a lot like Rei III at least. And the music that played when Team Rocket were planning... heh. I swear, I expected the Turk theme from FF7 to start playing. Definalty new.
-The Team Rocket motto was basically the same as the one from the Scott episode. I don't mean the words. I mean the whole motto. Firey background and all. The EXACT same... yup, reused footage.
CHIMECHO BALLON. A Chimecho balloon comes out of the Team Rocket mecha . ^__^
Team Rocket screm 'Pi Pikachu!' as they blast off.
-Happy ending with Ash and co. riding on Onix.
