Are you high? (no pun intended)
Logic states that moves with Low in its name tends to attack the opposing PKMN from a low point.
Logic ALSO seems to state that moves with Hi (High) in its name tends to attack the opposing PKMN from a high point, which was the case here.
It should also be pointed out that when Scrafty did the attack and missed, it got hurt doing it. The only other move that remotely does that is jump kick, but Scraggy can't learn it.
Anyway the writers honestly expect me to believe that Meowth being caught by the police was really that punishable of an event to be fired. Um what the hell writers, Jessie, James and Meowth were caught by a whole crap load of police officers when they first met Pierce. Can you say unbelievable B.S.
I love how Snivy played a role in this episode. I mean first off she smacks the crap out of Meowth. GO SNIVY! But no one was really expecting her to be in this episode. Loved how she rescued Axew and stuff.
Tepig, glad to see you get some more battles and wins, but you know I kind of feel it was pointless. I'm not sure why Ash chose you over his other Pokemon.
YAY SCRAGGY! Not only does it learn a new move because it was impressed by it from Scrafty, but it kicks a Mandibuzz's butt in the process. And I love how Scraggy yet again refused to go in its Poke ball. Take a hint Ash, it's not all about Pikachu.
As for Team Rocket, I don't know what the flying fudge they're doing, but I don't really care.
A decent episode, I guess you can say, but I don't really know what Meowth's problem was in the beginning with the whole preventing them from getting Axew, but oh well.
And also lamest excuse for being fired, if he's really fired and not tricking the twerps.
