I find the Green Goblin trio a little scary but lets see what does the episode holds for us. Been a while since I watched an episode. Nice to have no lags.

Marcatus spotted.

Dento like Musicals too? Nothing new in that.

Oshawott out of ball. Been a while since I saw it.

Kibago playing snare and Iris dancing to it. And now everyone is dancing.

[playerking]

The episodes starts off like in showed in the smash preview. They come to a town and they see the Maractus practicing some dance moves.

[realarcastform]

The cactus' voices are very catchy. Get it?

[playerking]

A flashback the musical from before and Cilan gets all excited with the thought of a Musical...to the point where he sang his last word?

Oshawott pops out and does the cutest freaking dance ever! Holy FNONGFORGGF!

And now Pansage is cute. I think Cilan said it was perfect.

NOW Axew is cute! I can't stand it!

[Locormus]

Oshawott pops up again.. What happened to it's voice??? :S And there's Pansage... Bet here Axew comes with the samba balls, and then the little argument starts... :P

[IcySealeo]

LOL at Cilan dancing with Pansage.

Oshawott's voice is a bit different...

[playerking]

It's Dance Time and now they all have instruments.

Axew makes Oshawott angry at Pansage, now Pikachu, Pansage and Oshawott are all fighting.

[Umbilical Noose]

The middle Marcatus has problem with the musical move.

Emolga out. Its ordering\helping the Marcatus to do right.

Not much improvement.

Satoshi challenges the trainer to a battle. Dento approves. The COTD agrees.

[Locormus]

Emolga bidgefixed the middle Maractus... Ash wants to battle! xD Original Soundtrack!!!!!

We knew that, but yeah, I think it's great they're helping them.

Ash wants a battle, I guess this is where a triple battle will happen?

[Locormus]

Okay, so now I'm confused.. Maractus vs. Pikachu, Tepig and Snivy

[Umbilical Noose]

Triple battle? First time?

Snivy-Tepig-Pikachu vs the Marcatus trio.

Battle called off cause Marcatus trio fell off during a move.

[Locormus]

Battle ends with no winner.. What the.. The opening is sung by an animated character :S xD

[playerking]

Some girl at the staidum is singing the Best Wishes thing. Dafuq?

Bring on Lilligant and Bouffalant. Nice to see the debut of a triple battle.

Tobio met the Maractus in the Desert Resort? Some Desert.

[Umbilical Noose]

Battle ends with no winner.. What the.. The opening is sung by an animated character :S xD

Kind of look a little strange, doesn't it?

Marcatus backstory. How this guy found them and all. And his musical dream.

The middle one runs off after its trainer scold it. Announcer is announcing the beginning. Tough luck.

was that bull flying? Anyway, more zen mode Darmanitan.

[playerking]

Another wild and angry Scolipede? I'm just glad Ash didn't Pokedex it.

And now everything it better between Tobio and the Maractus.

I think Iris goes to stall for time.

Lol, Axew.

Darn, that was a pretty good performance. And Lilligant didn't even show off? What the heck?

Tobio won I think.

[Umbilical Noose]

Marcatus trio and their trainer won the musical. Lilligant was surprised.

Episode ends with everyone watching a rainbow(a natural one).

Episode ends with everyone watching a rainbow(a natural one).

In other words, the starters didn't learn the pledge moves.

[Locormus]

So Lilligant appeared twice in this episode: Also in Cilan's imagination of the Musical.. at the beginning, and then at the end, yet it did nothing...

[Pepsi_Plunge]

Hum wasn't able to watch it saw the pictures on filb and it actually seems to be an action packed and funny episode.

What did you guys think?

[Dephender]

What did you guys think?

In short, "unexciting plot executed well". Wasn't bad, but wasn't particularly memorable either.

Iris' dancing was the best part. Hilarious.

[gliscor&yanmega]

Didn't watch it yet but I've seen the picture. It looks enjoyable, doesn't look jaw droppingly awesome but doesn't look boring either.

It seems like Ash has had his first official Triple Battle from what I have seen and read, which makes the debut of Triple Battles in the anime, was wondering when it would happen. Kinda of wish they did it for a rival battle or gym battle or something though. It doesn't look like the battle was finished either.

It's nice seeing some of the group's Pokemon take part in the episode, although it's pretty much the same Pokemon as always.

Looks like it has some funny scenes, and heartwarming scenes as well.

So yah, looks pretty nice to me.

Wait wait wait... so the darmanitan trainer keeps her pokemon at below half-health and then smashes them with a gigantic mallet? Did I get that right?

[Pepsi_Plunge]

There are games in Japan, where they do that to a Daruma doll, Darmanitan is based on a Daruma doll, that is why they used that in the anime.

Yeah Gliscor :P, I hope this sets up an actualy triple battle in Hodome against the biker(and the 3 starters evolve in it :X).
