Gosh - I'm shocked that no pokéshippers have discussed this one yet

Aside from that it was actually a very well constructed pro Brock episode, all his qualities were shown to great effect in this, the breeding skills, the cooking & cleaning skills, and yes even the female skills

Couldn't ask for a better send off for Brock, certainly much better than the one in "Gotta catch ya later!". "Friends to the end Ash, Friends to the end Brocko" *hard hand shake*.

Brilliant.

I just love the ending of this episode! Jessie and James proved themselves as pokeshippers and I just love how they were teasing Ash and Misty! It was sooooo kawaii! I just love Team Rocket so much after this episode XD ehhe too bad there areant other episodes like this.

 

[Kakashi-Sharingan Warrior]

i swear that raticate was a shiny raticate!!!

so J&J r pokeshippers! and Ash and Misty blushed!!!

 

[PokeProphet]

Ahh. Yes, these were the good old pokeshipping days. Probably one of the most shippy episodes ever. Sigh. It's good to know that even Jessie and James are Pokeshippers, they and a million other charakters from the show.

I liked this little arc, it was a good series of episodes and a great way to introduce the Orange Islands. I liked the whole idea of having them travel around by blimp because blimps are cool.XP I also liked how Jigglypuff was featured a lot around this time. She was really funny and it was nice to have some continuity in the series. She was around a lot but not in every single episode.

;130; whta did you not like about this epiodes?
:surfpika: For most people it watch Satoshi and Kasumi leave Brock. Not me. Hello Kenji.

The episode was pretty dull until the very end TR was making fun of Ash and Misty. But it was ironic since Jessie and James are by themselves lots of times just like Ash and Misty were when Brock left. (Meowth doesn't count since it's just a pokemon like pikachu.)

 

[Feity]

how exactly are the vileplume and other pokemon different?

 

[wobbanut]

You know, this episode loses some of its edge in hindsight, since we all know that Brock comes back 30 episodes later, he's had a couple of brief absences since, and his relationship with Professor Ivy went horribly wrong somewhere (and the fact that they were stuck with the GS ball for 60 episodes doesn't help). At least they gave him a good sendoff, since he really felt at home, but this episode just doesn't have the same kind of impact that it would have had if I'd been watching the episode six years ago. The only parts I like about the episode are Brock freaking over the messy kitchen, Brock taking care of the Butterfree, and the bit where they show the triplets trying all sorts of ways to open the GS ball.

 

[Satoshi]

This episode was really touching when I found out Takeshi was leaving. That last line Satoshi and Takeshi said while giving each other high-fives was really heart-warming. It was hilarious when Rocket-Dan was teasing Satoshi and Kasumi. Never really knew what happened between Takeshi and Prof. Ivy though...

I give this episode 8/10 for being well thought out, touching, and being really hilarious.

 

[Lorelei2006]

I actualy loved the episode and wanted to watc it over and over my sister taped over it.

 

[Dark Aerodactyl]

hey. what is in that gs ball?

 

[Ashy Boy]

hey. what is in that gs ball?

No one has any clue and probably won't be discovered any time soon.

 

[JONNO.FRESH]

An alright epi. Didnt like how they ditched brock but Tracey is an alright character

 

[Crystal Clair]

That magikarp in Professor Oak's lab was real random..... and creepy. I doubt you'd remember it if you haven't seen the ep in years because it's just one of those things.
Ivy's pretty hot, in the weirdest way. She's beautiful too. And those three kids were funny. We dont really see a lot of lab assistants in the anime. I mean there's Joshua and then there's Kenji but I'm not sure if he counts.

 

[Anyone 4 Buttons?]

I don't think Brock's departure was handled too well. He didn't even tell the others he would be leaving...some friend, eh?
Oh, and Crystal Clair, I watched the episode this morning, and that Magikarp was mighty random. Ivy can handle Gyarados, whereas Oak can only manage a Magikarp.
Professor Ivy needs to get some sleep...

 

[Ashy Boy]

The only thing I didn't like about this ep was Ash & Misty being teased by Team Rocket.
