Primeape Goes Bananas (025)

[firestar319]

Very funny episode, especially when Primeape chased Ash all the way to Celadon, and also this:
Ash: I sent in about a million postcards to get that hat!
That hat was something special...
8.5/10

1 of my absolute fav. Kanto episodes. I really enjoyed the battle between Charmander and Primeape that resulted in its capture. Brock was very funny, especially when he was sent flying through the air.

78/100

Mankey looked really cute and harmless at first. I liked it a lot when it started acting all agressive. And then it evolved and was acting angry all the time. ^_^

I liked how they called the rice balls "doughnuts" in the dub. I actually thought they were doughnuts for the longest time because they sort of look like jelly doughnuts that I've had.

The end of the episode was funny, with Team Rocket surrounded by all those Primeape.

You can never EVER mention this episode without bringing up the "Jelly Filled Donut" quote.

This was a great episode. It showed how important that hat was to Ash and how hard he worked for to get it. Glad Ash caught the Primape. Sad thing he didn't use it much though.

8/10

I'm glad Ash only had 5 pokemon with him when he captured Primeape......I can't imagine what would have happened if that thing got teleported to Professor Oak's lab........

Ash capturing a Fighting-type Pokémon would've made for some interesting battles so it's really too bad that he didn't get too use it much. I thought that Ash getting upset over his hat was a bit silly as was running away from a silly Mankey. It was good to see Charmander have some time to shine in this episode too.

I like how cheeky it is by stealing Ash's cap, and how it's so wild even after Ash captures it. I also don't understand the whole Donut thing they were going on about in this episode. Overall, I enjoyed this episode.

[AquaMilotic]

This episode is so funny! I loved it as a kid and I still love it now, Mankey stealing Ash's hat and then getting caught. It's a shame that he had Primeape for such a short period of time and rarely used it...

[Angel~]

This episode was really funny but then Ash released Primeape. ;|

[Misty#1]

Haha love how jelly filled doughnuts look in this episode!

[Misty#1]

And how Ash catches a doughnut, then Brock throws one and says "Doughnut, go!" Hahahahaha!

[7threst]

Brock: Pokeball go! I mean Donut!!!!

Hilarious episode with Primeape and uncovering some the background from Ash's famous cap. I loved the emphasize on the Donuts. Back then, no one really cared - unless you were expertise in the late '90s about the Japanese culture, but nowadays, yeah it's pretty lame xD. I do love the pace too. After this episode, Ash gets the fifth badge - just two episodes after he obtained his fourth. I remember possibly being this the first episode I ever watched of Pokemon and it's was just a great introduction to the anime.

Another classic episode Primape really went bananas

[Demon Kitsune Yoko Kurama]

Haha. Good episode name. It was a hilarious episode. Yet, I would be really scared if I were in the gang's position.

[your boss]

I miss Primape, it just wanted to play with Ash's novelty hat.

[MattySadler]

The introduction of such a mint character, shame he didn't last much longer!
