Sticking with Who You Know (617)

[TehGr81]

Pikachu and Piplup hugging the first time was funny, but it got old after that.

[Vern]

It was an alright episode but the only parts I really enjoyed were when Pikachu and Piplup were hugging each other while Ash & Dawn tried to get them to separate.

[Swampert_trainer]

This episode was kind of boring. It took place mostly in the Pokemon center and there wasn't even any battling.

I thought the reason that the machine wasn't working on Quagsire and Magnemite was because Magnemite is genderless. Guess I was wrong.

[_Taidow_]

This episode was mediocre at best.

These are the stuff I wished happened.

1). Buizel and Pachirisu falling in love.
2). Buneary getting that Pikachu is now in love with Piplup.
3). Croagunk trying to poison jab them in the butts in order to try to stop them from hugging.

The one thing that made me laugh was the cheesy love music they put everytime those two were hugging each other.

BTW for a minute I thought that Meowth was getting turned on seeing both male pokemon hugging and carressing each other. Well that would explain his sick obsession with Giovanni.

So, what was the name?

Kodama..



and swampert trainer there is more to pokemon then battles..

[jjag20]

boring episode no action just weird love crap

[SmartD]

Interesting episode. Water and Electric Pokemon hugging each other from a machine, really strange. And the episode was in widescreen, I hope they keep it that way.

[TehGr81]

I love how the Professor knew it was Team Rocket through their disguises. Now if only Ash, Brock and Dawn didn't constantly fall for them all the time...

Obviously there is more to Pokemon than battling, but when an episode needs to be better than this if its not going to have any battling.

[Ash-kid]

Well I just saw the english version of this episode, at least the professor's name is the same as the japanese version. And the music background pretty matched the strange episode. I'd say 5/10

[Torpoleon]

3.5/10
Slightly better than its predecessor episode, DP148. I liked how it was where only Electric and Water Type Pokemon got affected.

[unitykum1]

This episode was so stupid " hurry let's pull them apart!"

[unitykum1]

The writers are slowly losing their creativity

[Rebeccag]

was a filler episode but nothing really happened in it not even really agood team rocket battle. But the next episode should make up for the last 2 episodes I think

[BogleDominic Crazy Anime]

WELL, that was a complete gay if you ask me! Emagen the machine works with humens. X)

[KGB13]

I didn't like this episode very much. It was pretty pointless and nothing really important happened. Bad episode...

[vipsoccermaster]

This episode was alright, but it wasn't really entertaining.

[Painkiller2001]

Because Ash didn't let it out of it's ball. I'd much rather have seen BuizelXPachirisu then PikachuXPiplup

I would've loved to have seen this along with PikachuXPiplup.

Think about it:

Ash and Dawn are doing double-battle training with Pikachu/Buizel, Piplup/Pachirisu and then... well, you know what would happen next.

That probably would've made me like Buizel and this episode a lot more!

But, yeah, kind of a boring episode when you get right down to it.

[Lance The Champ]

A few attraction episodes in this series

[XeroNegative]

While the explanation they put at the end was vague and probably sufficient for the young viewers and the ones that didn't care, I'm pretty sure the reason the machine didn't work on Quagsire and Magnemite is because the professor explained that the machine to operated by releasing digitized waves of energy equivalent to the move 'Attract'.
This wouldn't work on those two assuming that Quagsire had the ability 'Oblivious' and Magnemite obviously being genderless; both being immune to attract in the first place.

If this episode had included Buizel and Pachirisu, it would've become instant success.
For a filler.

[G50]

This was 1 really weird episode... A machine that made Water+Electric Pokemon fall in love was really odd... It was creepy/freaky to see Piplup and Pikachu in love with each other. The gang's reactions were really unexpected. Buizel getting involved and attracting to Pikachu to make a love triangle was really weird. I'm surprised they were even allowed to do this form of episode...

10/100

[Littlemyuu]

Nah, not a good episode, its funny but i din't really like it

[Willow's Tara]

It wasn't that great and kinda odd, although I did think Piplup and Pikachu couple was kinda funny. It was already made clear Pikachu and Piplup were both guys especially in particular the last Togepi episode when Togepi attracts the Pokemon and all but Yanmega falls for the attract.

So they added a gay Pokemon couple which makes it funny because it's something you think the writers would be way too scared to do something like that (But then again Harley seemed like he may have been gay so it's not the first time).

G50- What about when Phione liked Buneary in the other episode? He's genderless and fell for her (I know it's a different thing, since Attract is pretty much forcing them to like the Pokemon that uses it).

[wobbanut]

Hah, definitely one of the stranger episodes of the season, like the Mystery Tour episode. Pikachu and Piplup are so cute in this episode, the way they get so soft-voiced and lovey-dovey when they get stuck together. LOL Amazing that the scientist didn't get a clue about his pokemon being dual-types earlier, though I couldn't help wondering if magnemite also being genderless might have something to do with it (probably not, but all the other pokemon in love weren't genderless). I liked Jessie calling her teammates strange too. LOL

8/10

[32er]

I actually thought this was alright, not good though.
