...And here's the last Journey of the month! It was tough to get out what I was thinking about during this episode.

But wait, don't I normally do 4 videos a month? Well I'm trying something a little different for the last one, and I'm looking forward to your feedback on it! Watch out for it a bit later!

It's always weird going back to this episode when you consider that Wobbuffet will become so popular that people will get upset that he was removed for Black & White and voted for him to come back in X&Y. Though interestingly I missed this episode growing up so I never knew how Jessie got Wobbuffet or why she stopped using Lickitung until I discovered Serebii.net in high school.

Verdant Range

Shoot, just realized a joke we could have done when that kid brings up his "shiniest Quagsire". "What a load. If it were really as shiny as possible, it'd be purple!"

I believe the only trade in the anime that was ever meaningful was in Diamond and Pearl with Ambipom and Buizel. And even that one ended up awkwardly on the former.

no mention of Sanpe in X/Y

I don't think a person is all that they do, people are complicated and have multiple layers to who they are. Like an onion. ... That metaphor is not going to die anytime soon, thank you very much DreamWorks. (He says with sarcasm)

funnily enough years ago i did a fan fiction story on bull fighting, mainly a group of protesters campaigning against it, although i did make a point of getting both sides across

Wobbuffet has an even more convoluted origin than we initially realized: It was originally an entirely separate Pokémon called Twinz, a ghost made up of two heads in a Catdog configuration that evolved into Girafarig, who in those days was a Pushmipullyu also with a Catdog configuration. At a later point in time Girafarig lost its second half and got the design it has today, so Twinz was replaced with a miniature Girafarig with a single horn and a tail with a single eye instead of the full mini-face of Girafarig. Eventually Girafarig having an evolution line was scrapped and Mini Girafarig was replaced by something called Kagebozu (a name eventually given to Shuppet) before being replaced yet again with Wobbuffet. At one point Wobbuffet looked a bit like Litwick before getting the design it had in the final game.

I know "Prepare to fight fight fight" was just an improv to match increasingly accurate lip flaps (kinda like the personalized first couplet or "Ja~ames") but it really adds to the charm of the motto.

Cross-Reset

Bug bear here....you do not have to go far into fanfiction to see 'Ash trades the extra 29 Tauros' fics for this episode. I HATE THOSE. Let us keep in mind that Ash would basically yank the Tauros away from their lives without warning to do that. The other trainers present at least had the Pokemon present for the change up so they know what was happening. The other 29 would not get that. Also there are ways to do an 'Ash catches more Pokemon' set up....and a sudden influx is not the way IMO. You want Ash to catch more Pokemon, just have him catch them at different times. Also I'll never get why fanfiction has a massive dislike of the other 29 Tauros....

This will be very interesting once you get to Throwing the Track Switch in Season 11.

at last, Team Rocket has their fifth ranger.

Not a big fan of the censor block. It's a bit obtuse, I prefer something akin to an illustration or tamed images that still get the point across.

Poor Lickitung, it got to hang around for over 100 episodes yet the writers barely cared. Like a lot in this series, the potential was wasted.

I gotta defend the Pokemon Stock Show. I breed Pokemon in the games just to give them away. I toss them into Wonder Trade/ Surprise Trade because there's no way I can meet enough people IRL, but if I was in the Pokemon World, I would definitely show up at the Stock Show trying to get people to trade. With me, these Pokemon are "Boxers," there's so way I can use all of them so they'll spend their time in the PC Box. But if I give them away, they could have a much more fulfilling life with some random trainer. (Keep in mind, Wobbuffet is a fighter, it's main moves are Counter/ Mirror Coat, Benny's not a traveling trainer, in away, it's wasting its life at Benny's side) I like to think, every victory they get is a victory for me, the pokemon, and their new trainer.

Ya and just because you're friends with the pokemon doesn't mean you or the pokemon is really so attached they'd never want to leave like pikachu and Ash. It basically is just trading fighters or athletes on teams and in he games they say that trading is a way to connect with traders as you'll have a pokemon that reminds you of a trainer you met on your journey in your possession it's encouraged like the guy that ash traded butterfree to said it's a way to form bonds with other trainers.

The issue is that, in the anime especially, pokemon are generally presented as being fully sentient creatures rather than just trainable animals. This makes a Pokemon Stock Show come off as being uncomfortably close to a real world slave market. It's a bit different in the games, where not only are explicit examples of pokemon sentience much more rare, but we also have our own mental disconnect of knowing we're only dealing with packets of data rather than flesh and blood creatures.

I was just here to watch some fun Pokemon jokes, and then you hit me with that bull! Well done! Scarred as I am now, it’s better to know

Jack Christmas

I know it's a joke, but it still annoyed me that no characters joined the extremely obvious dots of Jessie suddenly losing a Lickitung and gaining a Wobbuffet, and Benny trading his Wobbuffet for a Lickitung with an unknown person. I mean, come on! Lickitung deserved a better send off than not even getting to say goodbye to Jessie. Also, I haven't watched every era of the anime, but I'm happy to report that the XY series has plenty of legit Wobbuffet countering and mirror coating, and even has a Wobbuffet and Jessie-focused episode.

Except that it's not slavery, they're more like pets being adopted to a new home. In addition, Pokemon are shown to be able to LEAVE. In the Pokemon anime, if you mistreat your pokemon, Pokemon can come out of the ball and refuse to go back inside and go back to the wild.

Mark Lynn

This was somewhat bittersweet episode with a new change to Team Rocket. Lickitung was temporarily used for battling Jessie caught it after it gluttony ate her shopping spree, and no proper sendoff to it (like Ash & Misty left Brock on Valencia Island) just an accidental trade, I do miss Lickitung As for Wobbuffet, it's the life and humour and memorable part of Team Rocket, brings the joy and laughter, very much like Father Jack Hackett of Father Ted or Salem the cat in Sabrina the Teenage Witch sitcom

Mark Lynn

1:12 Bit of foreshadowing there Jessie is shown beating Lickitung up for licking its saliva on her, is a subtle hint that Lickitung is going to get a better trainer.

Mark Lynn

There was never any indication that Ash and his friends ever identified the Lickitung as Jessie's old Pokémon, nor that Jessie's new Wobbuffet was originally Benny's?

I agree about the bullfighting portion. While I do understand (a little) about the appeal (after all, this is reminiscent to Roman gladiatorial events, with Spain, back then called Hispania, was part of the Roman Republic/Empire for centuries), that doesn't make it okay. Especially since said gladitorial games also helped in costing us the now-extinct Barbary Lion.
