This is one of those times that Team Rocket really gets screwed. I mean, they actually do catch a sudowoodo so they can be taken across the river, just like the man wanted, but he doesn't believe it's real just because it won't talk? Something's seriously screwy there.

Overall, I'm not a big fan of this episode, mostly because sudowoodo ranks VERY high on the annoying list. The only highlight of the episode is sudowoodo and Wobbuffet pokespeaking back and forth, because in Japanese their names translate to "That's wrong" and "That's right". It's entertaining to listen to.

i was confused when i saw this episode cause at first i thought Sudowoodo was a grass type then i found that it's a rock type instead...so much for my theary of thinking it was a grass and steel type.

[Torkoal Stu]

I saw this episode for the second time today!(Repeat 5:10am and I couldn't sleep.)

Goods points:
*Brock Licking Sudowoodo.(Hilarious)
*Sudowoodo using Mimic and confusing everyone.
*Sudowoodo had a nice voice.
*They Mentioned the SquirtBottle.

Bad Points:
*It got really confusing at some points.
*Ash, Misty and everybody making stupid comments.

9/10 a good filler episode!

I haven't seen this episode in ages,can someone tell me why Brock leapt on top of sudowoodo and started licking it?

[Aptenodytes]

i always thought sudowudo was a grass/rock type. o well. great episode and sudo was fun to watch! 9.5/10!

[Meganium Ex]

Good one, but yes, annoying and cunfusing though.

[Ashy Boy]

The researchers were quite annoying.

[ShinyManafi]

I like this one when they were bickering what type Sudowoodo was, Lol

Thats all I gotta say about this episode. A pure WTF moment.

[Wynaut?]

Hehe, I liked this episode. Sudowoodo's one of the more entertaining Pokémon, with his dancing and funny voice.

Best line: Sudowoodo may be a grass-type, but it sure knows how to rock...

[Battra]

A hilarious episode a very good way at introducing Sudowoodo into the series and it's bit with Wobbuffet was funny. Interesting that Brock was the one to catch Sudowoodo in the field I guess a little foreshadowing of the Sudowoodo he'll have in D&P.

[bhrettzerda053]

It's very confusing to know Sudowoodo's type but it's a rock type in reality because it hates water! It confused the researcher because it learned Mimic, the attack in common to Sudowoodo. It did it to Ash's Chikorita, and also in his Pikachu!

[Igottapoo]

This was a funny episode. Sudowoodo just makes me smile all the time

[(s.i.e)]

oh yes i remember this one, brock was licking that sudowodo, that was so hilarious to watchXD

[Littlemyuu]

Good episode, Sudowodo's voice is cute

[Hibachi]

I liked this episode. I thought Sudowoodo was very entertaining. I can understand both arguments on whether Sudowoodo is a grass or rock type. I personally would have thought it would hae been a grass type. I thought it was hilarious when Brock started licking Sudowoodo. Also, why did Team Rocket need the old man to get across the river. Couldn't they just fly in their hot air balloon?

Sudowoodo victory dance priceless 7/10

Sudowoodo victory dance priceless 7/10

Haha sudwoodo is an amazing pokemon! I was for sure that it was a grass type, but once it ran away from the drops of water I knew it was a rock type. First time I saw mimic in the anime too.

[Demon Kitsune Yoko Kurama]

Brock...what were you doing to Sudwoodo? (O.O) It was nice to see him try to befriend one, since he would get one in the future.

[Ash-kid]

This is really strange that Sudowoodo isn't grass type...

And i loved how it was like the games, when the old man took them to the next city

[Charmed]

Great episode, it was actually entertaining, especially Sudowoodo's dance. Sigh, why not give it to Brock here?

I liked that the researchers went out of their way to prove their hypothesis. Sudowoodo does resemble a tree but it's a Rock type. I liked when Sudowoodo tried to pretend to be a tree just so that it wouldn't be seen. Priceless.

I believe Brock tried to "lick" Sudowoodo at one point, though that may have been fanart I saw....10/10

[G50]

This was a very bizarre episode... It was cool seeing Sudowoodoo for the 1st time. It was very funny to watch especially when they tried to prove their hypothesis. Sudowoodoo's mimic was really cool when it was confusing everyone.

20/100

[TheEpicGoomba]

This episode was pretty weird. Sudowoodoo was pretty cool seeing it for the first time. Sudowoodoo is a pretty cool Pokemon.

6/10

[Bulba the Great!]

What exactly is Takeshi saying in the Japanese version to justify the licking incident? Does anyone know?
