I know Sinnoh is far from over but since this saga has already crossed the 150-ep mark and it's almost surpassed the amount of Johto episodes, it wouldn't hurt to ask this now. So as the thread title implies, what are your fav eps in DP?

I guess mine would be " A Pyramiding Rage" since it had a whole lot of emotion and backstory.
 
:-D

DP062, the maid café episode
DP114, Urara episode
DP117, Rocket-dan break-up episode
DP142, evil Tigepi episode
DP143, Johto Festa episode
DP146, Kojirina episode
DP153, Rumika/Guardie episode

I'll edit more when needed.

DP153: Lots of Danger! Kojirou's Treasure Chest!! (I think this is a pretty safe assumption)
 
I loved the Wallace Cup arc. I think that's strictly because May was there, though. I doubt I would have enjoyed it that much if she weren't.

I love all of Barry and Kotone's episodes, as well as episodes focusing on Team Rocket and Team Galactic. Other than that, not a huge DP fan.
 
Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part 1 and 2
-Mainly because it has such great action in it. Even when it slowed down, it never stopped moving.

DP118/Noodles roaming off-Just hilarious, but in odd way, touching.

Pika and Goliath!/DP74-Probably the most dramatic episode.
 
All the Team Galactic episodes, definately.... I should also try and watch through some of the episodes with Barry in it, that kid's a flippin' riot.:lol:

I also forgot the Kidnapped Riolu episodes...I liked those too.:-D
 
DP is a very strange series. Sometimes you get a run of some consistently awesome episodes, but then with others you feel like the show goes back to the generic filler formula of Johto. Remember that recent bad Misdreaous/Mukrrow ep right before the Galactic finale?

I will say most of the major plot episodes have been good. The Gyms/Contests have been handled well overall, and all the Hunter J and Galactic eps were pretty good. Any episode with Paul or Barry in it has been great.

The Team Rocket episodes have been good this season, even if James/Meowth were practically ignored for like the first 100 episodes of DP.

If it weren't for the fact that we're now 600+ episodes in with most of the main cast feeling stale, it'd be pretty fun all around. Its a shame Ash and Brock feel practically dead personality wise nowadays, its the only thing that makes the main group interaction feel dull half the time in DP.
 
DP002 makes me giggle... silly Kojiro~ <3

DP117 always makes me smile... another "silly Kojiro!" moment of mine. XD Trying to get that thar Metagross... and using MANENE of all pokemon. XD When i saw that, i was all "you're sending a BABY out to battle a hostile super powerful- *facepalm*"

Whichever episode Musashi caught Yanma in. Everytime i see it, i think "oh my got they're such assholes!!" XDDD Poor kid.
 
-All of the Wallace Cup episodes.
-Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part 1 and 2
 
Too much to count, DP is too awesome!
- Most of the Gym Battle episodes (the Veilstone Gym is one of the best Gym Battles ever, at least to me) and even non-battle eps with the Gym Leaders were usually good (Maylene's confident problems, Byron's relationship with Roark, etc)
- Most of the Contest episodes (especially the Wallace Cup)
- All the episodes with Barry (I finally got DS and I'm playing Diamond now and while I'm only with 2 Badges, I can already say the adaption of Barry's character from the games to the anime was seriously great!)
- All the episodes with Paul and most of the episodes with Zoey
- All the episodes with J (especially the Riolu eps, some of the best ever to me) and all the episodes with Galactic (especially the final eps)
- All the eps Poké left, they were all great (yes, even Ambi's, the decision to randomly make it leave was stupid but the ep itself was good)
- The 3 eps DP beginning
- The 3 eps tag battle tournament (well, I guess that's counted in "Paul's eps" but still, important enough to note)
- "Tears For Fears"
- Pika VS Raichu
- All the Kotone/Kazunari eps
- The evil Togepi ep
- The recent Twinleaf eps (mainly because of finally getting Dawn VS Johanna and also Barry and Palmer)
- The Cheryl eps were nice too (and I feel that, while not as much as Barry, they did a nice job with her adaption from games to anime too)
- Ash and Dawn tag battle VS Quilava and Croconaw
- Most of the funny/crazy eps (DP39, the Mismagius ep, etc)
- Bunny/Pachi/Buizel capture eps
- Some evolution eps: Turtwig->Grotle, Aipom->Ambipom, Staravia->Staraptor
Probably a lot more... yes, I really like most of the episodes XD
 
I liked the episode where TR split up, and Kojirou was really upset and felt that they'd had a stronger bond and all that and how they did help each other in the end.

Other episode that comes to mind is the one with the evil Togepi. I don't know why I found the episode so darn funny.

Oh yeah, other episode I really liked...the one where Kojirou dressed as Musashi's alter-ego to participate in that contest. That was really nice of him.
 
I generally dislike DP, though I did enjoy "Once There Were Greenfields!", "Crossing Paths," and "Noodles: Roamin' Off." I am also certain that I will like "Lots of Danger! Kojirou's Treasure Chest!", since Jessibelle and Growlie are going to be returning in it.
 
I'm looking forward to seeing ep 153 as well. It's going to be about Kojiro...how bad could it be, especially since Rumika is going to be around. lol
