Sakura is a cool character and I like how her and her sisters have all five eeveelutions. I wanted her to join Misty and the others when it was offered but at least part of her journey was shown after it began.

[The Big Al]

Well, my trust in the Eevee sisters' common sense went down the crapper in this one. Couldn't they tell it was TR?

Well, Jessie once again blew it. They had four out of five. however, she just had to go for Espeon and then they had none. Whoever said greed is good, never spent time with Team Rocket.

That Espeon is soooooooo cute!

I think they did that because they probably though the boss would like the full set instead of just most.

i love that ep,it's the only one(besides the special)that show s ESpeon

[The Big Al]

I still don't get why Team Rocket was so stupid to leave the others out in the open. It's like they were saying "come get your Eevee's back". At least I could sleep at night knowing that the terrorists in the world were complete morons who could threathen a Caterpie.

i love this episode!! and i love the eeveelutions!!!!!

this was a great ep and eseon was cute

even tho i never got to see eevee

[ChaosMage]

I was hoping that Eevee would evolve in the first Kimono episode and this could show Sakura having ALREADY started her journey and see how she was getting on.

[The Big Al]

Yay, CN got rid of the stupid song Kids WB HAD to use and put in the original Japanese dance music. Joy.

[Kazaana]

Most of the reason I liked this episode was because of Espeon, which is my second favorite pokemon. =)

Now that I look back on it, I wish that Sakura WOULD have joined the group. Not for the rest of Johto, but for a few episodes, kinda like Todd did. Any reason to see Espeon more is welcome in my book. =P

It's interesting when I see this episode how much Sakura has really grown since her first episode. The first time around, she could barely hold her own in battle, and here she really kicked butt and showed a lot of maturity. I'm glad she was finally able to go on her own journey too. I can't wait to see the Chronicles episode with her.

I also liked the part with Jessie and James posing as pokemon dancing instructors. It's funny how vaporeon and flareon joined in, then all of them started getting bored. LOL I also liked the part when Jessie and James called their pokemon into battle, and Arbok looked bored when Victreebel went after James. Overall, good episode.

Isn't this the first episode where Ash pull's Brock's ear?

[≈*Virulent Tsunami*≈]

Ah, I see I'm not the only one who's just seen this episode on Miguzi

Well, this was pretty good for a Johto filler. I'm used to Hoenn animation, though, so the drawing style seemed quite sub-par in this episode. I noticed Espeon kept it's Japenese voice; it was constantly calling 'Eefi! Eefi!'

The writers seemed to favor Jolteon in this episode. Jessie spoke to it exclusively, and it was the one that noticed they were trapped in that room. Well, we don't see many Jolteons, so I guess that favoritism was OK.

It's cool seeing Sakura again, and how much she's progressed. The highlights on Espeon's characteristics were great as well, particularly how it evaded Jessie.

I also enjoyed how Sakura's sisters were messing with Brock. Best part of the episode, I'd say =D

Victreebel was....quite vigorous in its attacks against James. Pretty fun to watch, IMO

Corsola got some spotlight here too, which is good. It doesn't get a whole lot of time for itself, IIRC. So, good idea, writers.

Overall rating:
8.5 out of 10
One of the better Johto fillers, IMO, and that's saying something!

Well, we are getting this eppy at 5:00 PT on CN, so I might watch it, I especially loved the fact that Espeon got defeated.

[Shikamaru]

I also watched this on Miguzi.
I found this episode quite good if i might say.
I liked the battle of Corsola and Espeon. Also adding to the favorism of Jolteon that ~*Commander Blizzard*~ was saying. I belive jolteon said it's name more than the other eeveelutions. But still Jolteon is ok since we really havn't seen it for a bit.
This was a good johto filler in my opinion.
I give it a 8/10

[Cartoonami]

Seems that Sakura and her sisters are really cute looking in this show. Likewise, a standout moment is Jessie trying to lure in Espeon with a choke chain. That's hard core.

[ShinyManafi]

This is one of my most favorite Johto episodes, the funniest part was when Brock when totally crazy over the four sisters, LOL!!And another thing was all 5 Eevee evos were in here, so that was nice

[Battra]

It's nice seeing the writers of the series bring back character's that have appeared before, especially with Sakura and her sister's. It's nice to see Sakura's Eevee has finally evolved into an Espeon so the sister have the complete set (as known at this time.), but I gotta say i'm not to convinced that Sakura's sisters actually cared about getting their Pokemon back especially if they had the time to change out of their formal kimonos into regular clothes before informing the gang about TR. I got a laugh out of the sisters calling Brock out on his obsession with them, and then Ash pulling Brock away by the ear. We won't see Sakura again until Pokemon Chronicles, I wish she'd have stayed with the gang awhile longer.

[Tadashi]

Guys, Sakura was AWESOME. It was awesome seeing her, and her Espeon, again. Plus, all the Eevelutions (at that time)! Awesome or what?! =D
