Following a Maiden Voyage! (469)

[Hikari10Girl]

I loved this episode cos it was Dawn, it's all about Dawn.

And I think she will forever be remembered as one of the most influential characters the series ever brought to us thanks to some Ash similarities.

FYI the Staraptor seen in this episode was shown to be around the size of Staravia.

[Dawn and Piplup]

One of my favourite episodes!
I love Dawn and Piplup and it was cute how they eventually made friends and Piplup wanted to save her life.

I found myself bored with this episode. Maybe it's because of the whole starter non sense that didn't need to happen. I also wanted Dawn to wear some of those outfits in the contests instead of that same aweful pink dress that seems to never gets thrown out. Turtig could have been given to her as well but the cooler starters always go to the girls, don't they? 8/10

Turtwig is the coolest starter, bro. Your statement is flawed.

I was bored mainly because the entire episode was about Dawn and we only see Ash in the end.

Yeah but Piplup could have been Ash's then if it was so. I like all of the sinnoh starters. If Aipom wasn't here then I could have totally see Ash with Chimchar instead of waiting about 15 episodes ahead to then get it. But again, the writer do whatever they want.

I thought this episode was okay, not really amazing but nice to see Dawn for the ffirst time.
8.5/10

I just rewatched this episode. I still love that most of the episode focuses on Dawn. Also this episode is awesome because 1 of the best characters in the anime debuts here
I give it a 10/10!

The episode was alright. Not too great, but it's nice to see a new trainer who wasn't an idiot in the beginning. That's one of the things I liked about Dawn. Ash should have gotten more screentime though.
