| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That old woman was weird. |
 |
| Somehow feels fillerish. Anyhoo.. |
 |
| LOL @ Kojirou/James with his big boobs. (uncut version) |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Mehh. |
| So in the end Ash's mum won the contest. What a weird episode. |

Anitnelav said: Gay... I see a pic of that scene all the time around the web. I was hoping to find out why it happens, in the anime... Alas, I guess that's the price I pay for these dubs. But they bring back such memories, so I must watch it in dubs.LOL @ Kojirou/James with his big boobs. (uncut version) |
| LOL, this episode was hilarious! Kojirou with his blow up boobs! Hahahaha! |
If you don't like me, acquire some taste |
| really really weird episode |
 |
| Uh, so weird! Felt very out of place as well as being quite dull and like filler. Bad episode for a kids-friendly show. Kojirou was pretty hilarious in that bizarre gender swap but honestly this was a bad episode. At least we got to see Satoshi's rival (whatever Gary's Japanese name is) and Satoshi's mother. I assume this episode wasn't aired on TV and it might not even have been dubbed (correct me if I'm wrong)... Oh and that old man saying something about Kasumi in 8 years was creepy af. |
| God this was just weird...no wonder it was never aired. |
 |
| So I guess Prof Oak and Ash's mom were there on a beach vacation together. Did they get bored of just boning at the lab? |
 |
| So, even Pokemon has a beach/swimsuit episode. Impressive. Obaba... xD People complaining about filler... I searched and only one site considers it as a (technical) filler. I wonder how a game based anime like Pokemon can have fillers, it looks "original", Bulbapedia says the manga is "loosely based on the Pokémon anime".

The trophy said 'Ash Ketchum - First Place In Our Hearts'. He was joking, there's no "Ash Ketchum" in the trophy, not even Satoshi nor any name. First it says the contest title, then "優勝" which means "(overall) victory". Maybe Satoshi's mother won or no one after all. |

| The episode was strange, but I still liked it. Seeing James with breasts was probably one of the worst things I've seen about Pokémon. * sorry for the discomfort*. |
| Sometimes otakus are rejected by society, so I discovered that it is much better to be an otaku in secret.  |
| Back then this episode was banned here. Funny, nowadays it would be a hit. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| That episode didn't entirely feel real, tbh. |
 why am i plagued with furry jokes everywhere I go |
| so ash saved the day, and his mother proud of him, because he did what he does everyday xD and yeah misty does look like a women now. Frezlaj said: So, even Pokemon has a beach/swimsuit episode.

Maybe Satoshi's mother won or no one after all. no he wasn't, i have this dub ep of 4kids (tv rip unlike the rest, kids-wb recording), that's what written in the tropy: "first place in our heart, ash katcham" as to the question where i did got the dub ver, you can PM me. |
| This was one super bizarre episode lmao. I'm super surprised that this was banned but I can now say that I've seen it. Like another comment said, this episode.. just.. doesn't feel real lmao. It's so bizarre and so all over the place but it works super well. I liked how team rocket chose the antagonistic side to mo's group and the beach episode overall was super crazy. I enjoyed this lots |
 |
| Ah yes the infamous episode where James decided to get inflatable breasts x) Definitely an odd episode with Misty even mentioning being degraded but does it for the money anyway, has it's funny moments though. Surprised they even dubbed this episode despite being banned shortly after. Glad I found the episode where the removed scenes were mixed in with the English dub though. |
 |
| Lol teens drive motor boat without driver license. Team Rocket survives after ramming their submarine? Luck pushed to the limit. |
| What a weird episode ahaha, it was banned here because of James' boobs I believe...so had to watch it subbed, but no regrets XD |
 |
| funny episode haha |
| After seeing this episode I see why it got cut like it did in the US. Especially the old man creeping on Misty. There is a lot of misty being presented a certain way in this one and I would imagine Kids WB was not onboard with that. Also James' inflatable tits. Either way its nice to have it available because of the internet. |
