Say hello to the greatest Johto episode that is not towards the end of Master Quest.
This is the ONLY episode ever in the show, I can remember actually laughing out loud too, others have got a chuckle or something, but this one had me rolling. I like James just for this episode actually, that is how great his performance was.

This was one of my favorite Johto episodes since Misty's reactions to being a Gyarodos was so funny XD James acting as a Moltres was super funny too XDD I wonder what Misty's real pokemon personality is...

The third appearance of Butch and Cassidy, and this pretty much cemented their cult following among the fans, I think. It's a shame they never released this episode on DVD.

Am I the only one who was bothered by the fact that Giovanni was hidden in the shadows in this episode? I mean, we already knew who he is, and he'd been seen out of the shadows a few times before. Probably just slipped the animators' minds (like Krabby showing up in Oak's lab a few episodes later).

This is one of my favorite episodes, and it's too bad that it hasn't been put out on tape/DVD. Seeing James go on a major ego trip is a delight to watch, and it was fun seeing Butch and Cassidy again. I also really loved the parts with Misty steamed that she was a gyarados type, and everyone agreed with it. :D This episode also has one of my all-time favorite lines:

Butch (on James in his Moltres costume): I knew he was a loony bird, but this is ridiculous.

The fact that Kojirou ran around in a Moltres outfit without knowing the whole thing was a scam was really hilarious. XD

My only beef with this episode? The dub. The return of Butch "Chain Smoker Voice" and Eric Stuart made James sound REALLY annoying because of the way he makes his voice. >_o James was supposed to sound overconfident, not LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS. T__T;

"FAIYAA KOJIROU!" XD

Heheh, I loved this episode. The ones centered around Kojirou are always great. It was hilarious to see him acting so dramatic and confident, especially wearing that ridiculous Fire outfit.

And it's always nice to see Yamato and Kosaburo. This was before the Housous made them into bumbling idiots too. Poor Koji was actually doing well against them before they told him the whole thing was just a scam. XD

Soonansu was pretty cool in this ep too. Makes me wish Musashi would actually use him in battle more often.
 
One of the greatest episodes in Johto, this one is particuarly interesting with the fortunes and everything :D

Heh. This was the episode that had Fire Kojirou/Moltres James. Funny.

Another Pokemon Center Rip-Off/Scheme, how original!

I'd say one of the best Johto episode ever, and it was very hilarious. Gyarados definetly fits Misty's personality. James "The Mighty Moltres" wow just wow that was funny especially seeing him dress up like Moltres and actually having them hoist him on a crane rofl. I wonder what their real types were to bad the episode ended before we had a chance to find out, my guess is this.

Ash: Pikachu
Brock: Pineco
Misty: Gyarados
James: Victreebel
Jessie: Wobbuffet

YOU JELLY?
ah, my most favourite episode of this season, I just found it funny how James tried to act like a master and how he got Victreebel to control itself for once :p

This episode was hilarious. I laughed hard at the fact that James thought he was the mighty Moltres and the designated leader of Team Rocket. It actually worked for him as he got his Victreebel to obey him. I also liked how Misty's fortune was Gyrados, and everyone but her agreed with it. It was also good to see Butch and Cassidy again.
