A Bite to remember!

[Kojiro]

Okay another non-game thing, the third filler in a row, but of course, having a few fillers every once in a while is okay.

Okay, Sentret, Furret,Sudowoodo,Stantler,Murkrow? Non of those are available in Hoeen!? The only Hoenn ones were Mightyena, Poochyeana, Ninetales,Bellosom,and Azurill.

Okay, first of all I am pretty sure Mighty/Poochy have thier original voice intact.

Pretty standard episode, Brock Evolution explanantion was cool! And seeing Sudowoodo is a plus in my book!

Team Rocket and max stole the episode, in my opinion, Max is really becoming a cool charcter in my book, he smart-aleced Tr!

Anyway TR scam was funny, that big machine just appeared, and meowth was funny, and it was even funnier when he mixed them up and said 'Per...sun..pom?"

Also Team Rocket made a referance to a old episode, Haunter ves kadabra, when they mentioned the Light Bulb being invented by Einstein. I laughed at that.

Plus Advance Adventure BGM, made this episode a 9/10. i just wish Team Rockets Pokemon get some screentime soon.

I found "A Bite to Remember" to be a better episode than the Pellipper one. This one just had more heart and quality to it.

I'm really finding Max to be a lot sweeter character than I ever thought I would. His enthusiasm in interacting with Pokemon and even just looking at them is endearing. I can identify as I get the same feeling when I see animals in the wild or up close in a zoo.

The sibling relationship between May and Max is really nice to, with them constantly referring to things that have happened between them in the past.

May's fantasy over how Torchic would look evolved was... disturbing. A fifty foot chicken with abbs of a body builder!

All the philosophy and ways to think about evolution was quite interesting too and well done.

I found Poochyena's voice in this episode to be a lot better than the dubbed ones in the first episode. It was so sweet.

One hopes that Max can meet up with this Mightyena again when he becomes a trainer. They'd be great together.

And as for all the non-Hoenn Pokemon seen, well... where in the game does it ever say that these Pokemon don't exist in the region? No where that I know of. After all, you can't catch Seviper in oen game version and you can't catch Zangoose in another, but both live in Hoenn. You can't catch Treekos in the wild either but they obviously live in Hoenn. And finally, and most importantly, the anime is not limited by where Pokemon live in the games.

I watched the first half of it and it was *yawn* so I watched Fairly odd parents instead

Was "Katrina" the same Katrina with the raichu? Cause she looks like her only with her hair shorter

Wow, I can't believe someone would actually choose to skip a new Pokemon episode.

He's not one of us! He must be destroyed by the Uber of all teh coolest Pokegods, Venustoise!

Just kidding, i could see why the beginning of this episode could knock some people off, but it got better, Team Rocket was hillarios in this episode! trying to act like they really were keeping a secret, AG is alot funnier.

[homeofmew]

it was ok. better than the peliper epi indeed. the Peliper epi was just plain weird. lol anyway it was funny the buff torchic. it was kinda scary too. I wonder when May figures out Combuken evolves into Blazkin.

[Kojiro]

I don't think max knows either, i mean he saw how cool blaziken was in the SC, but did not want a Torchic!

Ummm, I am a girl and you just called me a HE. At least I get another chance to see it on friday

[Kojiro]

Hey how should I know your gender, anyway its not like I have never been called a she before.

Thats the good thing bout Wb, they repaet new one every friday!

I thought it was an good episode overall. Not too special, but not too bad either, and I preferd it to the Pelipper trash I'd gotten a week before.
The best scene was with Haruka imagining what Torchic would look like if it evolved. My Torchic, what big muscles you have XD
The whole evolution theme seemed a little overused and predictable at some parts. I think we all know how a Pikachu evolves by now, but I guess it had to be explained for the siblings.
I liked how Max was enjoying seeing pokémon up close and personal. I think thats a pretty good hint that he won't be staying home with Norman once they arrive back in Petalburg. Meh, I also liked the way he was so determined to help out that Poochyena. He'd make a better trainer than Ash methinks ^_^
9/10

The second I saw the title, I knew they were going to mispronounce Poochyena and Mightyena. I've always pronounced the "-ena" as "ee-na", like hyena. Otherwise, it just doesn't make much sense.

Boring first half, mildly interesting second.

5/10

You know, Max did show a lot of determined attitude, but it was really annoying to me. At the beginning of the episode, they made it a point in telling Max about how pokemon choose to evolve on in their own time, and that Poochyena seemed happy the way it was. It was kinda like Bulbasaur not wanting to evolve yet. So Max takes Poochyena, and because he thinks it should evolve, he makes it evolve? I'm sorry, but I just thought that was a little rude on Max's part. It would have made much more sense to me to make the show focus on the fact that some pokemon just don't evolve and that Max would have to learn that lesson instead of getting his way at the end. Of course that's just my opinion. All of yours seem very different. Ah well, without diversity, this place would be boring!

And the TR stunt was pretty funny. I cracked up when I saw Meowth in that Sunflora suit from the Sunflora episode! And it was hilarious when he got all mixed up.

And Poochyena was really cute. Much better than the Poochyena in the first PA episode.

An okay episode... kinda boring though at some parts... [b]6/10[/i].
