Ash Ketchum continues to work toward his goal of becoming a champion PokÃ©mon trainer as he challenges a trio of synchronized swimmers in "Cerulean City"; A.J., a stern trainer, in "League"; and the conceited champion of a posh prep school in "Hard Knocks." Assisted by Misty and his friend Brock, Ash also overcomes the inept villains of Team Rocket and learns lessons about modesty, honesty, and sportsmanship. Although Ash initially feels that A.J. drives his PokÃ©mon too hard in "League," he discovers how deeply he cares for them when Team Rocket tries to kidnap Sandshrew, his favorite. In "Hard Knocks," Ash defends a smaller boy from bullying upper classmen, and shows the snobbish students that training PokÃ©mon isn't an academic exercise, but a way of life based on friendship and mutual affection. Viewers not caught up in the PokÃ©mon craze may find the idea of fighting high-tech duels with these cute little animals incongruous. But millions of kids in America and Japan embraced it, and they've given the PokÃ©mon a higher profile than such earlier product-characters as My Little Pony, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, and Herself the Elf. --Charles Solomon

I don't like Pokemon as much anymore but..........2003-12-28

I used to absoulutely love pokemon when I was eight(no not when it was a fad,I actually hated it then). On my ninth birthday,I had a fun sleepover with my friends and we watched this. It was neat,and the episode the vidio got its name from is my second favorite episode. I recomend this one over JigglyPuff Pop,witch is pretty boring. I wish I still liked pokemon that much...

Still good........2003-07-17

Yep, our "hero" Ash finally reaches Cerulean City, where he'll fight the local master for his badge. And this time, he's all alone. Misty left for no reason, and Brock had some "stuff" *cough* to do. Turns out the local master is 3 girls named Rose, Lily and Violet. And another shock. They're Misty's sisters. Gary has already been here and won a badge, and the pokemon are all exhausted, so they decided to just give Ash the badge. Misty doesn't want any of that, though, and challenges Ash herself. After a while, the battle is interrupted by Jessie and James, who have come to steal all the pokemon in the gym. Pikachu stops them by jumping into their soaked machine and shocking it till it explodes. And, since Ash wuld've easily won if he had used Pikachu, Misty's sisters give him the badge. Misty doesn't really agree, though.
So, following the game, they're on their way to Bill's cabin, eh? Or maybe they just go directly to the next town? Nope, the writers didn't want the show to end taht fast, so we get some feared filler episodes. Don't worry, this is good filler. Enjoy it while it lasts, cause in a few seasons, you'll hate filler with a passion. First off, Ash is informed about an unofficial gym nearby, where the savage pokemon master AJ lives. AJ doesn't want to start his pokemon journey until he's won 100 matches in a row, and is now up to 98. AJ is also one of the best trainers out there, and his Sandshrew easily defeat all of Ash's pokemon. Ash is a bad loser, and claims AJ was cheating. And later, he critizeses his training methods. Look, Ash, this guy's a lot better than you, so just shut up, okay? Jessie and James show up again and try to steal Pikachu, but accidentally steal Sandshrew instead. Sandshrew beat them up, and runs back. So, they go back to get Pikachu. AJ defeat their pokemon without any problem, and get his 100th win. Then he leaves for his journey.
Later, Ash still can't mind his own business, and critizeses Gizelle, the leader of a student program on Pokemon Tech, a school where you can study pokemon. Pass the exam, and you can enter the pokemon league without badges. And training, obviously, so I doubt you'd get very far. Anyway, Gizelle has a pretty special training system, and to prove her greatness, she challenges Ash. And loses. That makes her realize that her system isn't really that good, and that the school doesn't really teach you much useful stuff. J&J show up, and get defeated when the entire school gang up on them, and Ash continues his journey.

So, my opinion, eh? 3 pretty solid episodes. As much as I hate filler, I have to say that these were actually good. I didn't expect AJ to defeat Ash, but I'm glad he did. He was better, and whatever stupid plot device the riters would've come up with, I'm sure I wouldnt've liked it. Add in a couple've good battles, a gym leader episode, and some good plot, and you got a pretty decent pack. Not worth a 5 star, but still good.

My favorite episodes!.......2002-12-30

These are some of my favorite episodes of Pokemon! They're cute, funny, and exciting! I love this video!

Pokemon: Sisters of Cerulean City.......2000-05-29

This movie is funny, clever, and great for pokemon fans. It contains 3 pokemon episodes. They are: The Water Flowers of Cerulean City, The Path to the Pokemon Leauge, and The School of Hard Knocks. It also has the full length pokerap! This is one of the best pokemon movies I ever saw and I'm sure you'll like it too!

Okay I guess!.......1999-11-05

Okay I guess. I liked the first one but the second one I hate because the kid looses Shandshrew. I really liked it though when Pikachu made that funny face at Cubone.
