Riding on Lapras (1232)

Water starter fan
Torterra having Frenzy Plant is the first time one of Ash’s mons had one of the three ‘ultimate’ starter moves. They were usually reserved for his rivals for some reason.

So i guess cilan's lure has become ash's go to lure now, good to see the connection between these 2 which i think is underrated.

Lol they actually stretched out the 'water-type-stuck in ground' plotline for a whole ep. But it was fun this time. Reserves made the ep for me, but funny moments like Wailmer evolving, Pikachu threatening TR and Ash tickling Wailord with Heracross/Bayleef. Nice hearing classic OSTs again, that unova one near the end took me back.

10/10 cause of Sirfetch'd surfing

Still a good episode though, very clever use of reserves and yay we saw Bayleef!

Pikachu was the real OG here though. He really said I’ma threaten TR to use their mecha, peek up Jessie’s skirt, then drown them the second we’re done. That was some Pikachu snapping at Meowth not drowning levels of dark.

Nice, guess it should’ve been obvious but it would’ve been a stupidly big missed opportunity if they didn’t
The episode itself was overall pretty dope, it felt like they took every opportunity to showcase reserves doing something, even had some nice Team Rocket/Pikachu dynamic instead of Team Rocket just trying to attack and being inevitably blasted off.

I wish every MPM episode featured the reserves as extensively.

Well, at least we can confirm Orange Islands was actually a thing, some tried writing it off.

The Orange Islands is one of the most important arcs in the anime people can't write that off

I'd suggest butter as a solution.

The whole episode could've been easily solved immediately if they just caught Wailmer and then release it.

Then again, a lot of things in previous episodes could've been avoided with just capturing/releasing/recalling Pokemon.

Let's not forget Latias just not using its psychic powers to help and instead choosing to do nothing

Yeah. I mean, Ash and the rest totally didn't look further when Ash and Pikachu were floating in midair, so they'll just see the whale glow pink, float back into the ocean, and ask nothing how it happened.
