Talkin' Bout An Evolution! (237)

[Champion Jared 14]

I was really expecting Misty to be greatly fascinated with the red shiny gyarados, and overcome here fear of them, and for HER to be the one to engage in a fierce battle with it, and capture it, but unfortunately, she didn't. I thought that would've made a nice plot twist. Oh well, at least she later conqured her fear of them, and she has a gyarados to call her own now. Nice appearance for Lance too.

Great episode. I love the whole Red Gyarados story and how Lance captures it. Awesome

[(s.i.e)]

the red gyarados was quite a sightseeing to behold, shinies are rare in the anime series.

The red Gyrados looked so cool in the Anime, i love this episode

[Hibachi]

I thought that the red Gyrados was awesome. It is the second shiny pokemon we have seen so far in the series (if you don't count the Butterfree or Kecleon who weren't actually shiny). I thought it was really neat that we got to see Lance too. I feel bad for all of the Pokemon who are being affected by Team Rocket's radio waves. They shouldn't be forced to evolve.

I noticed a couple errors in this episode right off the bat. First, the narrator says that Ash is going to earn his final badge at the Mahogany Gym. Second, Ash then says that he can't wait to earn his sixth badge and enter the Johto League.

I love that Red Gyarados! And I like Lance!
The episode was good.

[Ash-kid]

It was great to see another shiny pokemon - this time a shiny gyarados.

Lance was cool, i loved to see an E4 again.

8/10

[Ciccone]

So glad they decided to show the Red Gyarados. I was worried they'd skip this episode in the US. It was kinda violent.

Anyway, I like how they turned this into something sort of like the Team Aqua/Magma/Galatic finale. Only with the leader getting away (he wasn't directly involved).

Lance appears to save the day, though I don't like the anime version. 7/10

[Sayho1234]

Lance in this episode = Automatic win !

[G50]

This episode was ok... It was cool seeing a Shiney Red Gyrados for the 1st time. Lance is really cool. Pokemon G-man is a very cool thing that Lance is called in this episode. Sebastian is a very cool villan in these plot episodes.

40/100

[TheEpicGoomba]

This was a very cool episode. It was cool seeing another shiny Pokemon and for it to be a Gyarados. Especially to be caught by Lance.

7/10

[Zoruagible]

I liked this episode, when I first saw this I was really hoping Ash would get Gyarados.

It was cool to see Team Rocket members, that arn't the trio or Butch and Cassidy.

[TheMightyKarp]

Lance was absolutely awesome in this episode. Dragonite FTW!

[AquaMilotic]

It was nice to see Lance appear for the first time! Also cool to see the Red Gyarados. It was nice to see Ash come back to the Lake of Rage, it shows how much he cares about Pokemon.

When Lance stole a Team Rocket grunt's clothes, he undressed that guy. My sister and I immediately thought about the South Park episode in which Mr. Garrison came out of the closet, in which he said "It was just to compare sizes!" Mr. Garrison's gay side said "For seven minutes?"

That joke made this episode even more memorable. So no 9/10 (which I would have given this episode if my sister and I didn't make a reference to the South Park episode), but 10/10.

[7threst]

This episode was really interesting and I absolutely loved the whole plot of this episode. Team Rocket's role was awesome in this episode and it was also nice to see Lance undercover too. I even go as far to say this Team Rocket arc was better than the other arc during the Whirl Islands. It was just in many ways more different and unpredictable.

[Angel~]

A good episode, it was so nice to see Lance make his debut as well as the Red Gyarados. Professor Sebastian was really sinister and I really liked the voice Eric Staurt did for him. Interesting to see a bad ending at the end of the episode.

[Demon Kitsune Yoko Kurama]

It was a good episode. It's Lance's debut. His Dragonite is really cool. I liked how the gang knew of him already. Adding to that, I wonder why they didn't give us a fantasy of the G-Men?
