Cute episode~
When Satoshi said "ai (which means love)" to Serena, I knew it's too good to be true
and as I thought he meant "Iron Tail, Pikachu" and fainted as he caught a fever

and both pikachus, so different but both sooooo cute!!

Serena and Satoshi... they are really pulling people's heartstrings with this. So many cute moments for shippers in this episode, obvious they did it all on purpose too.

Can't forget Ritchie's Pikachu from way back in the early Pokemon, that one had a cool hair style. Not sure if Pikachu battle Sparky, Ritchie's Pikachu.


Serena is love, Serena is life. I loved everything she did this episode. Her blushing when Satoshi fell on her, when she stuck her tongue out at the end, her cute expression when she invited Jimmy for lunch. She knows Ash's battle style quite well.

POKEMON QUIZ!!!

Bonus points for showing us Retro Pikachu!
Anyway~! Someone needs to tell PunkPika that headbanging really shouldnt be a daily activity o-o'' You even saw him getting dizzy.
And Jimmy is just literally screaming to get a case of deafness.

Anyway, total ship episode albeit one that can be enjoyed by everyone. Especially Eureka, she knows, she bloody knows.
Serena impressed me a lot, sure she emulated Satoshi's style and had General Pikachu as her battle partner but she still pulled it off.
Punkpika also had an interesting move setlist. Dig ? Amazing.
Though when will people stop getting surprised by Dig, we ALL KNOW they will hit you from directly underneath you.
Team Rocket going all traditional on us, Love it when they do something different than their typical act.

However, I do have to question the usage of the cold trope AND cold medicine trope. Diseases really doesnt mean anything anymore in the Pokemon world.

This episode is interesting, all right. My thoughts:

- So many shipping tease between Ash and Serena around, including the moment when Serena wears Ash's outfit, she's looking pretty good in it.
- Oh my, the Mohawk Pika don't have to bang its head all the time, it even gets dizzy after overdoing it, lol!
- Serena managed to imitate the way Ash speaks, his manners and the way he battles? She must have been watching Ash for quite long if she could pull it off. :)
- Serena's expression is cute as always ^^
- Ash recovered after Team Rocket's in action (as noticed by Clemont and Bonnie), that was quick.
- I think it's been long time after not seeing Meowth's fantasies with Giovanni.

Ok so... He gets a cold and it manifests as a fever? What?? And he heals about as fast as a Pokemon?!
Serena, honey, plenty of people have watched Ash battle more than you. If anything, I think Brock has watched Ash the most in terms of battling. (Might have been the English dub where she claimed that, though.)
Team Rocket's performance was... something. (Probably better in Japanese?)
So, now that we've seen Serena battle as Ash, it only makes sense that Ash will have to pretend to be Serena at some point, right? That'll be funny.

Serena is sooooo cute!!
That part in the beginning when Ash fell on her was so amazing and perfect T^T
Spike (Jimmy's Pikachu) kinda reminded me of Sparky (Richie's Pikachu from so long ago) with his spikey hair!
I love Ash X Serena so much

I recorded the dub of this episode on my tv so I could watch it whenever I like. The dub for XY has been mixed but they did a good job with this episode.
Got oppai?

Awwww! Serena love Ash was gonna say he loved her!!! She blushed so much, it was so adorable!

I recorded it on my TV but deleted it, now I think maybe I should've kept it, I could undelete it, you can do that lol.

Serena fighting as Ash in his clothes was cute! she wanted to fight in his place!

I can't believe that boy couldn't tell it was her lol. I was like "how can he not tell?" then Clemont and Bonnie came and nearly ruined it!

Then Team Rocket came and stole both Pikachu's! but Ash saved them because two minutes after that medicine which was probably just Aspirin he was fine again! LOL! seems legit.

I actually couldn't recognise Jessie and James in those outfits! they actually did look different for a change! I liked those outfits lol. They should use them again.

Satoshi woke up hungry for Serena's oppai.

LMAO at Serena's face when Satoshi was saying "A...Ai....Iron Tail!"

Jimmy Ken the Pikachu trainer has arrived loud as fock.

LMAO at Jimmy and Tongari!

PikaPikaPikaPikaPikaPika PIKA!

Serena wearing her could be future husbando's clothes and looks so cute in it.

Serena looked so good saying Jewmanbolto!

LMAO at Eureka's face when Serena was telling her and Citron what happened.

Eureka: "Satoshi", do your best!

Me: LMAO!

Rocket Gang padding the run time.

WTF type of medicine did Satoshi take for him to recover so quickly? Oh, plot. It works wonders.

DAT DOUBLE JEWMANBOLTO!

Of course Satoshi and Jimmy don't battle.

Serena working her magic on Jimmy. How can you resist that?

Can't believe I skipped this episode because it was filler. Glad I came back.
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).
