    Episode 79 from the indigo league "Friend and Foe Alike" will always be my most hated episode. Nearly everything made me angry about this episode from when I was a kid until now. - Sleep equalled K.Oed - Team Rocket constantly going after Ash - The build up to Ash and Richie's fight and being pushed the last 5 mins - Ash's Team Selection - Not calling officer Jenny that Ash was kidnapped - No one caring including his mother and best friends that Ash was missing - Ash losing in the most anti-Climatic and BS way

    Ash should have lost because Ritchie was just better at battling. Not because of Team Rocket induced circumstances. Have Ritchie use 3 different Pokémon. Maybe Ivysaur, Wartortle, and Clefairy. When Ash is confused because he was expecting the Pokemon he’d already seen, have Ritchie say something like “Ash you’ve already seen Happy, Sparky, and Zippo in battle. Why would I use them?” Then Ash loses because he didn’t anticipate the right team. A very rookie mistake

    Something you didn't mention about JN115 that I'd like to add is how all the Masters 8 competitors are people Ash has met before on his journey and literally saved the world with half of them, yet Ash gets absolutely zero interactions with anyone there except Iris. To make things worse, they just give Ash completely cold dead stares as if they never met him before. Ash doesn't even get any interactions with Alain, one of his greatest rivals in the series, other than a cold nod from him. It felt insulting to Ash because the competitors treated him like some nobody when he's actually on good terms with all of them.

    Yeah, I don't understand why they randomly made Ambipom develop a thing for ping pong suddenly. It made no sense, and it kind of seems like they were looking for a way to write Ambipom out of the story for whatever the reason, which I really don't know why they would. You would think that it would be a little more important, because the reason why Ash and Dawn traded was that they realized that they had Pokemon that fit the other trainers' style better, not to mention you'd think that they'd want to promote Ambipom more because it was one of the many Pokemon that got a new evolution in gen4

The writers wanted to give Dawn Tgoekiss and Cyndaquill as a way to advertise the upcoming Heart gold and Soul silver games(because togekiss and cyndaquill are johto pokemon lines). However Dawn already had 5 pokemon. So by removing one of Dawn's team members, two pokemon could be shoehorned into the show to advertise the games. Amibpom was chosen since it had the weakest emotional link to Dawn. Dawn had caught all of the her other pokemon, but Aipom was traded so Ambipom was dropped from the show. Which doesnt make sense for this reason: ambipom was itself a Johto pokemon evolution, so I dont understand why Dawn couldnt just be given cyndaquill or togekiss and call it a day.

    The goddamn Ambipom release episode infuriates me because you can tell they released her because they wanted Dawn to have a walking advertisement of a Cyndaquil and a last minute Togekiss, it’s genuinely baffling how they didn’t decide to let Dawn just have more than six pokemon and it feels like they chose a pokemon at random to release because Ambipom leaving for ping pong devalues her ENTIRE arc, so instead of a pretty well written arc about changing goals, she comes off as having the attention span of a goldfish who chases anything new that looks mildly intersting Garbage ass episode

    Yeah. Like, if you want to get rid of Ambipom, maybe just have her stay with Johanna. I mean, it’s not unprecedented for Ash’s friends to leave Pokemon with family so they can catch more. Misty left Horsea with her sisters when Horsea needed a place to swim (and Starmie because her idiot sisters forced her to). Brock left his Pokemon with his family before rejoining Ash in Hoenn, the Kanto Battle Frontier, and Sinnoh. May left Beautifly with her mom because they both liked the garden, and Skitty couldn’t get enough of the greenhouse. So why not Ambipom?

    @@user-fd7fi4vj8p I have seen that argument several times, and let me tell you, even this argument doesn't make sense. See, Dragon Tail definitely switches out your opponent's Pokémon, but which Pokémon would come out immediately next is completely RANDOM, it doesn't depend on either trainers. Against Ash, this strategy makes sense because all of Ash's Pokémon are prone to a Dragapult (flamethrower for Mega Lucario, Meteor Assault Immunity from Sirfetch'd and ability to hit Dragonite, Dracovish and Gengar for Super-effective damage etc.) If anything, this actually makes Leon look impressive. But against Diantha? Nope! Aurorus hard counters Dragapult because Dragapult can't hit Aurorus for Super-effective damage, but Aurorus can. Also, unlike Ash, Diantha has a fairy type in Mega Gardevoir. What if the dragon tail brought Aurorus? Dragapult would be in trouble. What if it brought Mega Gardevoir, a Pokémon immune to Dragon Tail? Which is why this strategy also doesn't make sense because otherwise it seems to suggest that Leon was relying on luck against a trainer the Anime showcased us as a strategist. Relying too much on luck in a trainer Vs trainer battle is never a great idea.

You have: *It take forever to get to the main part of the episode with us not even getting to the gym until the second half of the episode (The first part involving another one of the TRio’s schemes) *Even then, May just HAD to battle Watt before Ash battled Wattson (Which is one of the few bright spots) *When we actually get to the gym battle itself, it constantly gets interrupted by MORE TRio shenanigans, which would be more forgivable except for the fact that Ash and Wattson’s battle is a ONE v ONE! *And Ash’s Torkoal losing to Manectric’s Thunder Wave (a status move) And this episode isn’t filler as this is the episode where May learns the next contest will be In Verdanturf Town!

    My least favourite episode is "Three Sides to Every Story" There was this Lum berry farmer's Marill, which Dawn's Piplup falls in love with. It looks really adorable seeing them together & how they get along, plus they share an Egg Group. So why do I hate this episode? Well, there's this obnoxious Elekid that abuses Marill a lot with Super Effective Electric type attacks. We see one of these scenes of her being bullied onscreen by him. The attacks don't hit her though, but she looks so scared. 😟 Brock points out that he's "teasing her" because Elekid is also in love with Marill. At the end of the episode, she gets to choose between Piplup & Elekid & who does she pick? The Elekid who literally crushed on her by forcing her to dance daily over the Piplup who was nice to you from the start. Elekid is in the Undiscovered Egg Group & doesn't even share any egg groups when it evolves, either! So, according to this episode, if you want someone to fall in love with you, tease them by threatening to punch them, THEN show them you can protect them & flirt. Disgusting!

Most Gyms in the OS were only half an episode, so I don't see why you're on the TR stuff in that ep when it's the same for most Gym of that era. Seeing Pikachu and Charizard work together was great, as well as Pikachu shock Alakazam for its Hyper beam to strike the ground and hit Marowak, and then the bone club come back on its face. Bulbasaur's final episode was really good too, it was emotional enough and is no different than Oaking a Pokemon, no idea why that would be an issue since Bulbasaur lasted way too long in Johto.

    I didn't remember the episode title for number 1 so I was just like "well what could this be". I am not joking when I say my heart rate rised as I yelled obscenities the moment I saw Ambipom. Greninja's release is garbage, no one can deny but at least it kinda sorta has reasoning with his arc and has him being the regions -weed wacker- protector. Ambipom had all of this setup, was part of one of the only good trades in the anime's history, was overall just fun to have around and her doing contests made sense. So then why, on Arceus' green earth did they throw all that set up away for PING PONG! It is probably one of the biggest fumbles in the anime's history and I get angry everytime I think about it.

    Ash does insist on a rematch as well when it’s a more even battlefield, and in Watt’s with Wattson even tries to return the Dynamo Badge because the match was unintentionally rigged in his favour. OG Ash would have used the loophole of receiving it, this shows how much he’s grown and is much more like the Ash who refuses the Sunnyshore badge as a handout (a rare point he and Paul agree on) and prefers to earn it in DP.

Here in India, we prepare for this exam for two years (classes 11th and 12th), and since the syllabus is beyond the school textbooks, it is not quite an easy exam and hence the few days prior to the exam are some of the most crucial days/intense and thought-cumbersome days one can feel. This episode, this absolutely one of the all times of episode, struck me for three days, maybe even more, even when I was taking my exam I must have thought how awful that episode was, atleast two to three times. For me this episode will always be the worst episode of all time for these set of reasons.
