Wheel...of Frontier! (426)

[Mrs. Oreo]

It was funny seeing Jessie, James and Meowth training under Greta at the Battle Arena, and Grovyle losing to Hariyama was sad. Thankfully Snorlax did well and I liked seeing him use Hyper Beam to fly.

and Grovyle losing to Hariyama was sad.

Meh, he had enough wins. Not that Snorlax winning against Medichan and Hariyama on his own was a good thing, but Grovyle shouldn't have been used...

I was impressed by how the Battle Arena had a wheel to decide matches + Greta seemed lively and her Fighting-types were tough.

The battles here were tough and I liked seeing Ash's Snorlax again since he did so well. I especially liked the way the episode title was read like "Wheel of Fortune".

 

[Alloutℯ]

Greta was completely screwed by her voice AND writing. Her voice was a twofold disaster: not only was it a little too far to the macho side like I had feared, they randomly gave her a Japanese accent that didn't suit her character at all.

I didn't like how the Battle Arena had the wheel gimmick since it was pointless in the end. If I was Ash, I wouldn't have even used Grovyle in this match either.

Grovyle hadn't battled in a serious match in a while however, so I thought he deserved a chance to show off. Snorlax winning two battles was fine, but I felt that Grovyle should've done more. ^^

Er, what else could Ash have used in his place against Greta, though? Corphish and Swellow were gonna get the Battle Dome episode, and Pikachu had been used too much in AG.

I chuckled when I saw the Rocket-dan balancing bowls at the Battle Arena. The Shijima and Touki cameos were a neat surprise, and Kogomi was energetic, which made her match with Satoshi engaging. Speaking of Satoshi, I didn't think he'd bring Kabigon back to battle two Fighting-types, but somehow it mowed down Charem and Hariteyama.

 

[Daizy]

Greta's Battle Arena seemed more like a karate school than a battle facility. I wasn't happy when Ash used Snorlax against Greta's Pokemon since he won too easily even with a type disadvantage.

 

[Leonhart]

Looking back on this battle facility, I wonder why Kogomi didn't just challenge Satoshi to a double battle since she was only using Charem and Hariteyama anyway. Satoshi's Juptile and Kabigon teaming up would've been such a marvelous sight to behold.

What difference would it make? Ash's Snorlax still would've won and Grovyle would've been the fall guy still.

SNORLAX IS A ****ING BEAST. SIX MOVES. FIGHTING TYPES? NO PROBLEM. TANK EM ALL.
Sad how Grovyle jobbed but Snorlax was godly. Ash's third strongest Pokémon. Such a tank. Ash should have used shiny owl instead of Grovyle though.
Noctowl vs Medicham: Noctowl wins
Noctowl vs Hariyama: Hariyama wins
Snorlax vs Hariyama: Snorlax wins

I guess they wanted Snorlax to beat both of Greta’s pokemon, but Grovyle didn’t need to go down so easily. That being said, it’s always nice to rewatch & remember how Snorlax owns the competition in almost every match he is in. No way Medicham was going to get up after that Body Slam lmao.
