Absol-ute Disaster! (384)

[greatfire]

I also think it is a boy because he refers to himself using boku instead of atashi. My theory is that the voice director didn't have another actress available or maybe it was a guest star, could someone check the credits?

[Murgatroyd]

I did check the credits. He was the one character who didn't appear at all.

[Heracross]

That's strange, because he was the main filler character in this episode.=/ Anyway, I really enjoyed this episode. It had a good plot, not really like anything we've seen before and it also had some really cool pokémon. I thought Satoru was cool to begin with since he had the whole Indiana Jones thing going on, but him having a Heracross was definately a huge bonus.^^ Absol was also cool, it has the same mysterious and powerful feel as it did in Wishmaker.

[Gryphon Turboclaw]

Quick question about Satoru: Didn't Max mention something about a trainer in the Silver Conference by that name(in the Japanese version of There's No Place Like Hoenn )? Or am I just misremembering what was in the ep guide?

[Chris]

Oh yeah! XD Masato used to call Satoshi by the name Satoru in the original version when they first met. I forgot all about that.

[Geodude]

Right...the dub equivalent would be Max calling him Al instead of Ash.

[Chris]

Alf, actually. :P

[frednmethod]

Wait, what attack did Swellow/Forretress use when all the pokemon were attacking the rock?

I don't remember them having a projectile, or were they the only ones missing in that scene?

[Chris]

Oosubame and Forretress weren't being used at all.

[Geodude]

Yeah Swellow and Forretress have never used any projectile attacks aside from Forretress' Spikes, which don't even do immediate damage in the games...so yeah.

[vulpix]

i can't wait to see this episode because Absol looks so cool!

[crawdauntpro]

ash should have caught absol he would have been perfect for the sootopolis gym battle along side corphish.

[Pikafan]

How Come There Isn't an Episode Guide Yet. When Are We Going To Get it?

[upsy-daisy]

can u see regice in this ep

[suavesky]

it's not fare to absol to be basically bad luck

[Samayowa]

I can't wait for this ep. I love Absol (one of my favorite from the 3rd gen.)...

THIS IS AN Absol-ute Disaster! I can't believe Ash saw an Absol for worse! Rating: 1.7 Absol-ute Disaster, Absol-ute Vodka!

[FullMetalAlchemist]

It looks like we won't be seeing this ep on 12/24 or 12/31-and to think Kids WB was so good in airing 1 new ep every week! I predict a huge ratings drop those 2 weeks-falling behind every other network (which means 4Kids TV will be kings on Xmas Eve and New Years Eve). I predict the ratings would be so embarrasing, that Kids WB will promise to air new eps on 12/25/2010, 1/1/2011. 12/24/2011, and 12/31/2011-should Pokemon still be running by then. Anyone agree? I was really hoping to see this ep, but I guess I have to wait until after I turn 16 (look at my profile for proof).

[RandomCharizard]

Guess the US won't be seeing it,seeing as Gaining Groudon will be on. =/ I was hoping to see Absol again.

[The Big Al]

We'll get it on the seventh. KidsWB always shows reruns during the Holiday break.
