-Ash and his friends start off the ep walking in a Forest of Woe...haven't seen that in a while!
-Brock's using the Pokegear. Taking bets on how long the writers bother using him to advertise this feature from HGSS!
-A Murkrow! And it LOOKED at time! OH NOOOOOOOO
-I'll admit that I saw a translation of the ep's dialogue over on Bulbagarden, so if it seems like I actually know what the hell's going on in a random filler episode, well, that's why! Right now they're talking about how seeing a Murkrow at night is an omen of some sort.
-STOMP.
-STOMP.
-STOMP.
-Funky music cue, and...GIRATINA! Everyone freaks out, Ash goes for his Pokedex, Giratina prepares to stomp on them, and they run away before Ash can scan it.
-They got away, but...FLOOOOOOOOOD!
-They get swept away by that, fade to black, and...they're all having seizures!
-Haha, oh that Confuse Ray! Pokemon always use it on random people for no good reason!
-Brock? Do you not SEE what that COTD is wearing? I know you're desperate, but can you TRY hitting on someone who dresses like an actual human being?
-I know what the upcoming Pikachu and Piplup R IN LUV!!! ep needs:Croagunk stabbing them to snap it out of it! Hey, it's funny enough when it does it to BROCK of all people...
-Flashback. Yawn.
-Wandering around the forest. Yawn.
-Murkrow getting fried by Pikachu for some reason! Yay!
-I love how people get angry when people try to catch/otherwise attack the Pokemon they let out of their sight without any clear indications(collars, ribbons, etc) that they're owned by someone already. A simple "hey that Murkrow's mine, I just let it get ahead of me for a minute" would do, but noooo, he has to get ANGRY.
-In today's Meowth Psychotic Delusion, Giovanni seems to have had a bit too much to drink and has stumbled into the Blue Dot Room to recover. Luckily, Mismagius is there to sober him up! A quick green glow, and his blood alcohol level is .00 and he doesn't even have to deal with a hangover the next morning! Giovanni is obviously grateful to Meowth(and friends) for getting him this WONDERFUL Pokemon.
-You threw rocks at Murkrow to train it, not stopping even after it was clearly having trouble doing whatever you were trying to get it to do, and you were surprised it flew off? Goddamn, you're an idiot.
-A dusk stone! Gee golly jeepers, that must mean that one of these two Pokemon that evolves into a new Gen 4 Pokemlon using the dusk stone is going to evolve! Right? RIGHT?
-PIDGEY. MECHA. HELL. YES.
-Mecha Pidgey used Gust! Sudowoodo was stopped in its tracks! ...wait, Brock's DOING something?
-Mecha Pidgey used Sweep!...er, I mean, Sand Attack! And then Wing Attack! Sudowoodo really sucks!
-This Pidgey's giving me some serious "PS1 platforming game boss" vibes. "While the Mecha Pidgey's wing is flying towards you, quickly run behind the mecha to make the wing slam into it! You have to do this 5 times to defeat it!"
-Brock is frustrated that he's completely useless. In battle, I mean. Although he's useless in other areas, so to speak.
-Pikachu's first plan is to zap the bot while GirlCOTD is dangling from it. I approve of this plan, but Ash doesn't. Come on, who cares about things like "electricuting a human being?" She's an anime character, she'll be fine.
-STARAPTOR LIVES.
-Murkrow has to think about it for a minute, but decides to help save GirlCOTD so that BoyCOTD will stop talking to it.
-That must be some weak metal if a couple of Murkrow pecks broke it.
-What the hell, did that Murkrow invent Super Peck?
-All the good guys are out of the mecha, so Pikachu is free to blast it with thousands of volts of electricity!
-And nobody evolved. AWESOME. I mean, I know they're just COTD Pokemon we'll never see again, but come on here.
-CROAGUNK END SCENE IN THE ENDING. HELL YES.
In some ways I love bad fillers(they're easy to make fun of!), but they're still BORING(so I end up skipping most of them because screw that noise). Oh well, I'm considering this a dump ep for all the bad writers/what have you before we get to the important episodes.
