Caterpie's Big Dilemma (419)

[C.J. Ray]

I'm training a Butterfree in one of my Fire Red games, this bug is a BEAST when I taught it Dream Eater - Sleep Powder = Spore with Compoundeyes +30% boost to accuracy + 100 Psychic-type Absorb attack equals 1HK0 to anything at MIRAKLE's level or lower(MIRAKLE is the name I gave that Butterfree).

It's nice to see the goofy butterfly return after being shunned in Hoenn.

the little kid sounds like ash in the new dub

[Battra]

Let's see how many giant monster movies have been parody in this episode:

1. Caterpie eating a mysterious candy and growing to giant size is taken from The Amazing Colossal Man, 50 ft Woman, and very other American giant monster on the lose films.

2. Caterpie rampaging through the city and coming to rest upon a tower, taken from the original Mothra movie.

3. Butterfry vs. Dustox is taken from the fight seen between Adult Mothra and Adult Battra in Godzilla vs. Mothra: battle for the Earth.

I really enjoyed seeing this episode again, the Professor definitely had mad scientist written all over him. I really loved that Jigglypuff microphone that he made seeing the Jigglypuff that has put our hero's to sleep so many times in a little homage.

You know I actually liked this episode, not sure why but I just did.
Liked the battle between Butterfree and Dustox, pity it wasn't longer and that that hadn't been an Beedrill/Beautifly who ate them too (Had anyone been expecting Wobbafuet to eat the Mystery candy?)

One thing: What is it with the Jennys? They say the bad guys are under arrest but then Ash sends his Pikachu to blast Team Rocket off and she's fine with it? Uh Officer, they just ESCAPED JAIL! I think they would prefer blasting off to jail (Aleast in one of the early episodes they actually did get taken to jail but broke out)

[Tadashi]

Wow, this has the makings of Gulpin It Down written all over it!

Agreed, that's all this really was =\

Definitely one of my least favorite episodes ever. 100% worthless and boring.

[Jaguar297]

Woah, that, was, a, great, EPISODE!!!!!!!!! ;D

[Igottapoo]

This was a fun episode. It reminds me of Ash's Butterfree. But, yeah I had lots of fun watching this. I love giant Pokemon.

[Littlemyuu]

Nice episode to bring an old Pokemon back

[Blue Snover]

It was nice to see Caterpie again, even it was only for a short time.

[(s.i.e)]

it was a fun sight to see those big pokemon for a change, i liked watching this episode.

[Ash-kid]

From here the animation was different, i loved the new animation.

And Zender was pretty shy, i loved him.

8/10

[Charmed]

No no no, I was not impressed by this so-called Caterpie episode at all. Caterpie is always a delight, but a giant mutated version isn't as awesome as it sounds. I disliked the dub error with the Rare Candy and how they goofed and called it "Mystery Candy". It's like 4Kids stopped trying to dub at that point. The overall animation was nothing to brag about either. Apart from the evolution, this wasn't too good. 2/10.

[celebitrainer]

This was pretty exciting, but they could have done much more collateral damage fighting TR, don't you think?

The only thing I found really messed up was how quickly Caterpie went from Caterpie to Butterfree. Really, it might as well have skipped Metapod altogether; that's practically the same thing as what happened.

[Painkiller2001]

Awesome! Caterpie made another appearance again! Somehow, it looked even cuter when it was large.

[Lance The Champ]

Great episode!!! Good to see the episode focussed on a Caterpie

[G50]

This episode was ok... What a wacky episode. It was cool to see Giant Pokemon. The inventions were really bizarre especially since more of them don't work. It was funny to see Cacnea hug James and cause him to hit the pavement. It was cool to finally see Rare Candy discussed in the Anime.

20/100

[Zoruagible]

I thought it was funny they had Caterpie evolve twice in one episode.
Is this the first time, this happened?

[Vern]

Not a good episode. I don't need to list why that is the case though. It just was. They ruined a Caterpie episode which is something unimaginable. The filler characters were equally terrible in all regards.
