Poor Swampert....
How come the anime writer hate Swampert so much?

Anyway this episode made me laugh all the time before my poor Swampert appears

[dman_dustin]

I thought it was funny that Mamoswine knocked Piplup and Dawn into the air. Luckily Happiny was there to catch them. I'm a little disappointed that Grotle hasn't used energy ball yet. I really would like to see it. Instead we got razor leaf. At least it was better looking then the episode Piloswine evolved.

I thought this was fun episode.

Well the site i upload the pics isn't uploading pics properly for some reasons so i won't be able to post many pics in here (it took me nearly 20 min to upload these 6 pics),

Transformers! Im sorry i had to do that for the rocket mech. And wow looks cool. So then mister tiny wailmer evolves in the end? Must watch this episode as soon as i can.

[fishyfool]

What the-

I've seen everything, but for all we know, TR have had to do an Optimus Prime and get a diggerbot?

Nice to see Manoswine again, like.

[shac]

wow! Luxio looks great in there.......
*sigh*...so many unfulfilled dreams!

[Squaaah]

Wailord, Swampert AND Mamoswine?! Three of my favourite pokemon in one ep! THis i gotta see!

[TurtwigFan1]

Seems like a good episode. Luxio looks great and the Wailord-rainbow looks so cute! Glad to see Mamoswine, and Energy Ball would have been cool.

[BlueDragonfangirl]

Good episode indeed. I enjoyed it.

[Isis-sama]

I haven't seen the episode yet so I'm not entirely sure what's going on, but it does look like we get a nice little "Free Willy"-esque moment towards the end. Aww.

[uber gon]

Wonder how Wailmer got beached on the underground sewer pavement?

Looks like Dawn has to resort to bribery to get Mamoswine's attention. Meh, considering how much of a glutton it was it makes sense.

Oh hey, Grotle gets to battle and wins. Sweet. He takes a *Something* Punch from Swampert and then blasts him with Razor Leaf.

Glad we got some little bits with Mamoswine and Grotle, showing us that Mamoswine isn't like Charizard exactly since it'll listen for food, and Grotle's defense style.

Maybe Grotle will be used against Candice's Medicham, if it appears.

-AshnCo missed the boat to get to the next town? How unheard of!
-Oh wait, the way to the ocean is just being blocked by Wailord. You know, I thought that was a plot from RSE, not DPt.
-Now AshnCo is eating, with a Pokemon glaring at them from beyond the bushes. That makes 60 times that something like this has happened before!
-Nice jazzy music cues after Luxio steals somebody's lunch and the Pokemon try to get it back.
-I bet AshnCo wasn't expecting the thief ring to be made up of more than one species of Pokemon! I guess it experiences something new every day.
-So TR was doing construction work for some extra cash...and their machinary just so happens to turn into a mecha? Well okay then!
-Jesus Ash, when you have to chase three Pokemon to the sewer system to get back a small bag of food, might it not be more worth your time to just give it up and have Brock make more food later?
-More jazzy music. I guess the composers were getting bored with the usual fare and decided to jazz it up a bit. Ha ha, kill me now.
-So a brief trickle of water was all Wailmer needed to be able to jump back into the sewer water itself? Well, I guess I can't fault a random group of wild Pokemon for not thinking of making sure that the beached sea Pokemon was kept well-hydrated!
-Should I even ask why a bunch of Pokemon decided that living in a sewer was a grand idea?
-Come to think of it, how the hell did Wailmer end up that deep in the sewer system in the first place?
-Getting wailmer over the waterfall by freezing the water and having Wailmer slide over it on a makeshift sled? Another brilliant Ash idea! How does the boy think of these flawless plans?
-Oh wait, the ice at the very end magically broke before Wailmer could sled that far. How sad. At least Wailmer got to test out how close its species is to being able to fly.
-And Wailmer just so happens to evolve the instant it leaves the sewer. Because waiting until it was past all the bridges and stuff would have been too simple.


Nothing outstanding in this ep other than the music, but I'm not going to whine too much since DP barely gets any fillers anyway.

But I like Jazz...will they have Jazzy music in the dub? I hope so, and it's all thanks to that Jun trainer. Yes! I'll watch this episode sometime, looks like a decent filler.

Mamoswine knocking Dawn into the air to get the poffins made the episode.

I love how Dawn gets away without a scratch after a big mammoth with tusks rams her into the sky. Ah, I love cartoon logic.

I enjoyed this more than the episode itself.

This episode seems okay. It wouldn't been alot easier if Ash just caught the Wailmer instead of going through all that crap on trying to get it out of the sewer by getting it up the waterfall. And since it evolve at the end, it could've least gave Ash & co. a ride to their next location.

Eh, people complain enough about how Ash releases his pokemon (even though he hasn't done it in a long while.)

Besides, he'd have to waste a pokeball.
