Great Episode! Once again Satoshi and their friends found Malamar but this time he has already two more freinds. Satoshi and the Team Rocket unite forces and they destroyed their plans....

That was and exceptional episode! Truly I didn't expect to find such an amazing good story on this episode. ;)

My favorite episode in a looooong time.

James was awesome in this episode and his Inkay too. This episode helps remind us that Team Rocket's bond with their pokemon is just as strong as Ash's bond with his pokemon. They treat their partners with love and compassion. I'm so happy James and Inkay stayed together in the end <3

Those trucks nearly ran over Ash and company! :O If I was Ash I'd have Pikachu give the driver a good old fashioned thunderbolt.

You know I just thought of something. Team Rocket could really use a bunnelby/diggersby since they dig holes all the time.

Fun fact: One of a few very very rare episodes where Team Rocket shows up but doesn't blast off!

Wait, so they just assumed that the first Malamar they saw after having been mind-controlled by a Malamar in a previous episode was the exact same evil one they'd encountered? ...That's profiling, and that's wrong, man.

Aww James and Inkay! <3 It's too bad he'll probably give Inkay up anyway next generation like they do every time they go to a new region. I wish more of Team Rockets old Pokémon would come back besides Wobbuffet.

Lol I was thinking the same thing xD Like...How do they know it's the same one? I'm not racist against Pokémon, but seriously they all look alike. xD I would have gotten those 3 mixed up with all the wild Malamar...

I was going to say "is this one of the only episodes where Team Rocker don't blast off?" lol. I thought it immediately at the end.

That was my favourite episode since the last episode with Malamar, they are so interesting.

I'm glad they failed to make the world in to what they wanted again and went in to the future. I hope they don't come back.

Also, I simply adored James in this episode, he was so great, especially helping get the rest out of trouble and with the help of his Inkay. It was kinda sweet of him to try and let Inkay go when he thought he'd be happier with the other Pokemon but I am glad Inkay decided to stay! <3

Awww, I liked when he kept showing Inkay the croissant to bring him back! <3333

I've always loved James, I keep thinking I should go back and watch the series I missed which is a lot just for James.

What a great episode.. we actually met the Malamar from back then, it even add another 2 Malamars to help it, lel.. The motive is generic but surely terrifying.. It did a great job as an antagonist although it's only a pokemon..

Anyway, in this episode i guess James got the most focus.. Starting from he, meowth, and Clemont ask another Malamars and Inkays to help them and he even capable to snap his Inkay from the hypnosis with a Croissant.. There's some heartwarming moment in the end and i was pretty sure that James will release his Inkay in this episode, but actually they love each other almost the same level as our crew with their pokemon.. Oh, and this is one of the few episodes that Team Rocket didn't get blasted off XD XD

Overall a great episode.. the best ones since the last Gym battle in Shalour City.. looking forward to see the next ones.. 5/5

Great James episode! If there's anything I learned from my recent rewatch of the original Pokemon series it was that James is the if not one of the most entertaining characters in the series, so this was a great episode! I love his relationship with his Inkay, him almost releasing it gave me shades to Ash always releasing his old Pokemon but thank goodness it wanted to stay and they had that cute crying moment together talking about how Team Rocket is a team and how they basically love each other. Very cute moment. As well as the croissant moment, just a great James episode! A really good episode.

Okay, so some Calamanero's are rapist. *ding*

Junsa so fine.

I'm pretty sure they were trying to revive Sauron. :D

Back to the main story with Malamar.
A lot of focus on Team Rocket, when they get their time to shine, they really do ^^

THE CROISSANT saved us all!
