Review DP134: King of the Forest! Mojumbo!!

[Dogasu]

- We see Mojumbo hang from a tree branch and do this trampeze-type spin thing to jump onto the branch.

- Mojumbo attacks and hits Manmoo. Hikari's pokemon collapses.

- We see Hikari looking at a yellow berry that will supposedly make Manmoo better. But she's reluctant to use it...?

- There's a girl-of-the-day and a bunch of different grass-types (Madatsubomi, Kinokoko, etc.)

- Satosh's Hayashigame gets zapped by Mojumbo as well.

- The preview ends with a shot of Mojumbo emerging from a tree at night all creepy-like.

Preview was heavily focused on Mamoswine vs Mojumbo... And Kinoshita a'la bad animation is back again.

(lolz, forgot to take screen until the very last moment)

So now we're gonna see a block of episodes focused on Hikari except Galactic episodes.

There isn't a whole lot of moves Tangrowth could've used with that red beam attack. But knowing that Tangrowth leaves a berry afterwards. I think it's Natural Gift, the move that depends on the berry the user holds.

And the berry to me looked like the Sitrus/Aspear berry, looks a little more like the Sitrus Berry though.

Eh, this episode seems bland. Glad Mamoswine (apparently) gets some attention, though.

Some screens from me, nice to see some focus on Manmoo.

It's not like there isn't one coming soon.

And that's how you use Manmoo in a Contest. Looks like it'll fully behave next week.

So that's why there are no Headbutt Trees in Johto anymore.

Sitrus Berry? Eh... Why can't they, for once, show one of New Berries from DPPt? They are so underused...

I'm also stunned by the generic-ness of the COtD girl's design.

:lol: Oh hell, that's hilarious! I'd love to see a Ballerina Manmoo appeal xD

But wow, a generic, Jouto-style, CotD? When was the last time we saw one of those? Not that I mind, thanks to Manmoo...

When I saw the filler character in this ep, the first thing I thought is how she looks like the Johto filler characters.

At least Mamoswine is getting some training, so its not a total filler.

Is it me or does this girl look like May just with different coler looking hair?

Can't the same be said for all the girl charas on this show? Thy're all based on the same model, except with different hair and outfits

What attack did it use anyway? That red beam.

 

[Nando]

Re: DP 134 "King of the Forest! Mojumbo!!" Preview Thread

So instead of an episode where Nando teaches Dawn how to work with an unwilling member of her team, we get....a Bulbasaur's Secret Garden knockoff.

Good job, guys, good job.

It is Sitrus berry for sure.
Translation:

"Tangrowth suddenly appears and attacks our pokemon, absorbs our pokemon's power (hp), and then leaves with a Sitrus berry left behind. Eh? Is it that Tangrowth lets our pokemon recover by eating the berry? But then why this (Tangrowth absorbs Grotle) happen? What is Tangrowth's purpose? Next episode, pokemon Diamond and Pearl, the King of Forest, Tangrowth, let's catch pokemon!"

The red beam is probably a drain move, like giga drain. It attacks pokemon, and then gives out Sitrus berry. It probably wants to show the gang something about the berry and about the forest.

How is it somehow a knockoff of that episode? Is Grotle being forced to evolve even though it doesn't want to?

Your reasoning is weird.

God, I messed it up. I meant the episode where Ash caught it.
