    The weird thing is, it doesn't look like a dub edit. You wouldn't even know if you didn't see the original. His hair was like flawlessy changed yet his face remains the same.

    Makes me wonder if possibly the reairings of the Japanese Episodes were changed as well, due to a copyright issue?

    Brock was amazing today with his short speech:

    Nurse Joy: Good Luck Brock!

    Brock: Luck means nothing to me, but Love is (can't remember)

    Yeeeah, true. I had to double-take at first because it was so well done.

    This is the reference Gravy posted earlier (what show is this from?)
    http://www.geocities.com/TheGustyFro...as/Image27.jpg

    So maybe it was due to legal issues.

    Ah well, that distraction aside, the dub did a good job! It was just as enjoyable, tho kid!James' voice irked me a bit since he didn't even try XD

    Beside from that, Crasher Wake, to me, felt a bit of a show-off; who couldn't seen to remember to bring his own pokemon. (No offense though)

    Darn, I didn't know that the episode was airing in 6:00 a.m., but at least I got see the rest of the episode. I'm surprised Jason Griffith (Sonic's voice actor) starred in this episode, which made me quite happy. Now if only there was an episode featuring David Hayter (Snake's voice actor).

    Yeah, there was a post this week that the new episodes were changed to the new time.

    Wow, he did? It's been awhile since last year, he was in a Season 2 episode of Magical DoReMi (new episode online though). Man, good memories

    Yeah, I was also a victim of this misunderstanding. I also saw the end of the episode (just barely), and from what I saw, Wake's dub voice sounded... wrong. Oh, well. The rest of the episode looked good, though. I'll have to remember that they're being shown at 9:00 instead of 9:30 now.

    The episode was pretty average to me.

    The upsides
    - Wow, That's a lot of croagunks!
    - Crasher wake appears in this episode
    - The rivalry between Brock and Hamilton was pretty interesting.
    - Liked the music that played throughout the festival.
    - Poor Meowth, he broke his paw with the bricks.

    The Average (didn't mind at all)
    - Hamilton's hair was changed from the Japanese version to the dub, Possibly by the animators for unknown reasons.
    - It was really confusing to tell which croagunk is which when they are in a crowd.
    - Only 9 pieces compared to the Riolu special, which kept all of it.

    The downsides
    - I usually love the dub voices, but Hamilton's by Jason Griffith was abysmal, It sounds like his voice of Sonic. I hate that voice. That's one actor I was REALLY hoping PUSA would stay FAR AWAY from.
    - Why did team rocket even think of entering meowth in the contest, what were they thinking.
    - The episode moved back a half hour, I almost missed it.

    The change of that kid was great, his hair looks so natural even like it was brown in the original. I can't wait to see the episode!

    I kid you not, the COTD looks totally different. It's bizarre...:0

    That's the first thing I thought when I saw Hamilton too! Totally weird. I didn't really care for the original, so I was kinda ok with this change.

    Oh and don't get me started on the music change at the festival. When Ash went to dance they played the first ending theme from the BF saga, which I happen to love!

    It is kind of a shame that he was changed, since it's not like it was a case of malicious plagarisation. It was what can only be assumed as a friendly nod to an older show. Granted, it probably wasn't the best idea to follow the design of the original character that closely, so it's perfectly understandable that someone would sound the alarm.

    Having said that, they could have at least tried to keep the guy high up on the unique scale. I suppose it may save a bit of time, but slapping Masato's haircut onto yet another character is pretty lame. :P

    Couldn't agree more, Max's hair has been seen too many times, they could've made Hamilton's spiky or long or something like that!

    Nice episode, I've just got one question.
    What is up with Wake's face? I didn't pay too much attention to it in the games
    but really...is that a mask? are those his eyebrows? face paint? I can't tell.

    Wake is a funny guy, didn't get why he didn't own a Croagunk. (I've always thought Croagunk should have been a poison/water type.)

    Hamilton's edit was well done, I wouldn't have noticed it if I didn't know there was an edit.

    Meowth was great, didn't like TR's timing with the Croagunk mecha though.

    Last thing, the music in this episode gave me the vibe that Pastoria City is a southern hick town. Lol I liked that, it really had an atmosphere all its own.

    This episode was really funny.
    My favorite part was when Meowth broke his paw on the blocks.
    The edit looked great. If I didn't see the episode in Japanese, I wouldn't have even known that something was changed.

    I squeeed so much through this episode XD
    I thought I was going to miss it, because of work, but to my delight it was played earlier then usual (Ecto no pay attention to news lul )

    I love how Hamiltons' croagunk was named Craig. That was my croagunks name before he evolved hehe.

    One would think a franchise thats been around as long as Pokemon would know to ask permission before useing someone elses character design though, hmmm.

    I think the blue Wake is wearing is a mask, but I'm not too sure. His face is qutie hard to decipher!

    I think Vacuum Wave can become any shape that the trained Pokemon is used to. I kind of doubt after this episode every vacuum wave will look like a heart, I think it depends on the Pokemon.

    And in the games, it doesn't suck up the opponent, it looks like a real "punch." It is special like "aura sphere, and focus blast" so I think it's a "wind" type punch.

    I will not say I'm the best. But by Ash's standards, I'm pretty good.

    Some of you need to look at this before you comment on what a Pokemon should learn. Some of you are okay but some of you need to look at this: http://www.serebii.net/attackdex-bw/ This is the attackdex, it is your friend.
