Pokemon - Charizard! (Vol. 15) Heroes Ash, Misty, Brock, and Pikachu continue their adventures. In “Attack of the Prehistoric Pok mon,” there’s a gold-rush-style fever to discover Pok mon fossils in Grampa Canyon, but the heroes–as well as the dreaded Team Rocket–find themselves trapped in a cave where the prehistoric Pok mon, including Charizard, are anything but fossils: they’re alive and angry! When Pikachu loses his voice in “A Chansey Operation,” Ash, Misty, and Brock rush him to the closest hospital, which is designated for humans only. The doctor is initially reluctant to treat Pikachu, but by the end of the episode, he’s engaged the good gang to help out in a rush of Pok mon emergencies. Finally, “Holy Matrimony!” reveals James of Team Rocket’s background–he’s really wealthy and his parents are desperate to find him. It won’t matter much that Brit James has parents with heavily put-on Louisiana-toned accents, especially when it turns out they’re tricking him into marrying. (Ages 5 and older) –N.F. Mendoza Customer Review: Charizard rules! Charizard is my favorite Pokemon! I also love dinosaurs, so Aerodactyl agaisn’t Charizard is one cool battle! The other 2 episodes aren’t bad either. (Charizard impression) Roar!!! Customer Review: Dinosaurs, Doctors, and Psychotic Fiances This is definitely one of the best Pokemon videos! It starts with “Attack of the Prehistoric Pokemon”. Ash and his fellow twerps end up in Grandpa Canyon, just in time for the “Great Fossil Rush”. Ash and Team Rocket end up underground with an angry Aerodactyl! It’s up to Jigglypuff to save the day! Next is “A Chansey Operation”. Doctor Proctor saves Pikachu from choking to death on an apple, but then has to help and entire truckload of Pokemon. After some light flirting, the Doc convinces Jessie to help him, along with the twerps. Finally, there’s “Holy Matrimony!” We find out the truth about James’s past! His crazy finace, Jessiebelle (who looks like eveyone’s favorite Rocket Girl), tries to hold him hostage, but Growlie, his pet Growlithe comes to the rescue! Then, Jessie and James leave in thier balloon, provoking one of the most Rocketshippy moments in Pokemon history! This tape is the best!

Pokemon - Mewtwo Returns In this direct-to-video sequel to Pok mon: The First Movie, Ash, Misty, and Brock continue exploring the Johto region, then have to rescue Pikachu after Jessie and James of Team Rocket kidnap him. The search leads them to the hidden plateau where the redoubtable Mewtwo has established a haven for the cloned Pok mon from the previous film. The evil Giovanni is plotting to recapture Mewtwo and renew his efforts to create an army of bio-engineered Pok mon. Aided by the reluctant Meowth, Ash and his friends defeat Giovanni and his henchman in a battle that is less over the top than the original feature but more intense than the program’s usual adventures and lessons in sportsmanship. The result is a mildly amusing, not particularly involving film. Mewtwo’s angry brooding and some of the action may be too scary for very small children. Unrated; suitable for ages 6 and up. –Charles Solomon Customer Review: An Interesting Path For Pokemon This is review 4/10. This is an interesting path for Pokemon movies. Although most don’t consider it one of the movies. This movie, from what I believe, takes place between Pokemon 3 and Pokemon 4ever. I liked Mewtwo Returns. I thought it was repetitive at times and I miss the CGI from the ‘official’ movies. However, I thought it was nice to see the return of Mewtwo. I especially like the DVD feature for the uncut story of Mewtwo’s origin. I thought that was exciting. By the way, the Pikachu balloon was cute. I also like the fact that Mew wasn’t in this movie as a main character. Customer Review: Pokemon Rules All Pokemon movies will get 5 stars from me. My daughter loves Pokemon and we’ve watched this movie several times together and she about a hundred times by herself and its very entertaining.

Team Rocket Blasts Off! (Pokemon Chapter Books #5) Customer Review: One of the better Pokemon books If your child loves Pokemon, and mine does to the exclusion of almost everything else, this book is a great one. Mine is a slightly advanced reader of age 8, and more than anything else he loves to read and imagine himself in complicated Pokemon battles, to envision the world of cuddly, but fierce Pokemon. This book, which includes a battle using one of our favorite Pokemon, the elephant-like Phanpy, is one of the better chapter books for ages 8 and up. Customer Review: The whole gang’s here!!!!!! James and his friends are just fall-down funny!!! Jessie is unbelivably gorgeous, Meowth is hilarious, and James is really handsome. James of Team Rocket has always been a bishonen. He loves his friends deeply.

Pokemon - Psychic Surprise/Primeape Problems (Vol. 7-8) Customer Review: Psychic Surprise I thought it was a great movie, but not the best in the Pokemon collection. In (THE GHOST OF MAIDEN’S PEAK) Ash, Misty, and Brock find themselves in a festival marking Summer’s end. Brock is disappointed because he has to wait a whole year to meet a girl. He then spots a beautiful girl on the docks. Team Rocket is hanging around when James spots the girl too. Pikachu sees that the girl is a Pokemon. Later, Team Rocket is searching for a way to get rich. Brock runs into an old lady whose name is never revealed. She tells James and Brock that a horrible fate is waiting for them. During the festival, a man shows a crowd a painting of the maiden. He explains that the maiden is waiting for the one she loves. James and Brock notice that the girl in the painting is the same girl they both seen earlier. The man tells them that she is over 2,000 years old. Later at the shrine, Jessie and Meowth plans to steal the painting. James wants to stay and look at the statue of the maiden. Brock too, stays while Ash and Misty leave for the festival and tell Brock that they are staying at a nearby Pokemon Center. Later that night, Brock and James are both hypnotized by the ghost of the maiden. The next morning, they find James and Meowth at the shrine where the old woman tells them the legend and offers to sell them ” ghost stickers ” to repel the ghost. It doesn’t work and they soon find the ghost is the Pokemon Gastly. In (Bye Bye Butterfree) It’s Butterfree mating season when Team Rocket steals all of the Butterfree including the pink Butterfreee that Ash’s has fell in love with. Ash’s Butterfree is rejected at first by this beautiful one, but changes its mine when Butterfree and Pikachu stop Team Rocket’s efforts. Ash and the gang wave farewell to the Butterfree and Brock notices that Ash has helped Butterfree grow as he too has grown. In (Abra and the Psychic Showdown) Ash has arrived in Saffron City and after Team Rocket tries to steal Pikachu, a small girl saves Pikachu and Teleports them to the Saffron City gym. A man tells them it is the home of Sabrina, the Saffron Gym Leader. A young man shows them to the stadium and Ash sees the small girl, only to find it’s a doll. Sabrina was controlling it. The doll says that if Ash loses, he’ll have to play with her. Ash accepts as they begin an all-out one-on-one match. Sabrina chooses Abra and Ash chooses Pikachu. At first, Abra sits idle. Ash tells Pikachu to use Thundershock. Abra teleports and evolves into Kadabra. Misty tells Ash it’s not against the rules for a Pokemon to evolve during a battle. Ash tells her that it is against the rules to Teleport out of the stadium and tells Pikachu to fill the whole stadium with electricity. Kadabra uses its psychic powers to use the blast against Pikachu. It connects and Kadabra uses Confusion to make Pikachu dance. It then uses Psychic and hurles Pikachu up to the ceiling and back down again. Ash forfeits and Sabrina turns them into dolls. The strange man Teleports them from the gym and tells Ash to catch a Ghost Pokemon from Lavender to have a chance against Sabrina.

Pokemon - Poke-Friends (Vol. 4) Want to get at the heart of the Pok mon craze? Fast-forward to the end of this video to see the video exclusive Pok Rap, a music video that lists all 151 collectable Pok mon. That’s right: 151 creatures to collect. Think of them as the starting lineup of all the NBA teams. Instead of knowing a player’s stats, Pok mon fans have to memorize creature types and a Pok mon’s certain strength.
This video contains three episodes from the animated Pok mon TV series. Our intrepid heroes Ash and his friends continue their quest, collecting Pok mon along the way. In “Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village,” the heroes stumble on to a Pok mon health spa where injured Pok mon creatures can take in a little R&R. The courageous Bulbasaur that defends the spa does not take kindly to Ash’s desire to be his trainer (and keep him in his Pok ball storage container). “Charmander–The Stray Pok mon” finds the cute title character abandoned on a rock awaiting a new owner. The poor critter will die if his tail light ever goes out. What will he do in the upcoming thunderstorm? The title characters in “Here Comes the Squirtle Squad” are water-spouting beasts with Jack Nicholson sunglasses and a one-word vocabulary (”squirtle, squirtle” is heard in a dozen different variations). Of course, Team Rocket is there to foil our heroes and steal Ash’s valuable Pikachu. –Doug Thomas Customer Review: The plot progresses in an odd way. Still good though. So, our “hero” Ash got lost on his ay to the 3rd gym.Doesn’t really surpise me.. Anyway, after stumbling through a bunch of traps, he finds the Hidden Village (TM), a spa for abandoned pokemon. It’s protected by a Bulbasaur since pokemon thieves would certainly like to catch all these injured pokemon. Of course Jessie and James show up, and Ash decides to help Bulbasaur to beat them. Melanie, Bulbasaur’s trainer, asks Ash to take Bulbasaur along on his journey so he can grow stronger. So there we have another pokemon. Later, the group finds a Charmander on a rock in the woods. It’s waiting for it’s trainer, so Ash can’t really catch it. A bit later, at the pokemon center, he overhears Damian, Charmander’s trainer, brag about how he abandoned his pokemon. After Brock beats up Damian, Ash and the others save the pokemon. The next morning, Charmander is gone again, but it returns to save Ash and Pikachu from Jessie and James, who have appearantly used their heads for a change, and donned electric-proof suits. They weren’t fireproof though. Damian returns and want Charmander back, but Charmander burns him and goes with Ash instead. Even later, the group meets a gang of Squirtles who are terrorizing a nearby town. After teaming up with Meowth, they kidnap Ash and the others so Jessie and James can get Pikachu. Jessie has other plans, and decides to bomb the Squirtle Squad to death with a lot of bombs dropped from their balloon. Meanwhile, Ash tries to save Pikachu by getting a Super Potion, but is knocked out by Gary. When he returns, Jessie and James have started their attack. Ash saves the leader Squirtle when he breaks his leg in the battlefield (and is unable to run from the bombs) and together they destroy the balloon and puut out the fire. The Squirtle leader decides to go with Ash.
Well, certainly a decent batch of episodes, even though it seems a bit silly that Ash catches all three starter pokemon at once. But if he didn’t, I’m sure we would’ve gotten a bunch of crappy filler between these episodes, so it’s okay. But he really should get to the 3rd gym soon. In the Charmander episode it appears he’s headed North of Cerulean, which means he’s been walking in a circle for 3 episodes. Hm. Customer Review: The plot progresses in an odd way.

Pokemon - Johto League Champions - The Quest for the Hidden Temple (Vol. 55) Customer Review: WARNING: Episodes are out of order. The episodes from “Hidden Temple” come from Pokemon:Johto League Champions-Vol 6 and Pokemon:Johto League Champions-Vol 7.
Buy these two volumes instead, and you’ll get much more for your money — More episodes, and they are in order. Customer Review: Three More… The third entry in the “High Voltage Collection”, which collects the more action oriented episode of Pokemon onto one VHS. This video contains the three following episodes…
Episode 416 - Wobba-Palooza - Ash and company happen upon a village that are just wild about Wobbuffet, and they are shocked when the villagers welcome Team Rocket with open arms! It turns out Jessie’s Wobbuffet IS good for something! Team Rocket plans to rob the village, but when a gang of Wobbuffet haters comes to wreck the annual Wobba-Palooza, Team Rocket and Ash team up to send them packing! Episode 423 - Houndoom’s Special Delivery - Cute little Togepi gets separated from Misty and lost in the woods. Luckily, a passing Houndoom finds Togepi and cares for it. Will Misty and Togepi ever see each other again? And will Togepi drive Houndoom crazy? Episode 439 - Control Freak - Ash and company help an archeologist find a hidden temple, which holds an ancient mask that is said to be able to control Pokemon! But Team Rocket is after the mask as well! What will happen if Team Rocket is able to control all the Pokemon in the world?
“Wobba-Palooza” may just be the best episode on this VHS, simply because of all the wackyness Wobbuffet provides, while “Control Freak” has a good story, though the animation is a bit stiff. “Special Delivery”, though cute, is rather boring. Pioneer has begun releasing special edition DVDs of the Johto League Champions series, each holding seven episode, so you may want to hold off on this volume since it will eventually be available on DVD. But if you just need a dose of Pokemon action, or if you’re just a Wobbuffet fan, this VHS is great.

Pokemon - Charizard! (Vol. 15) Heroes Ash, Misty, Brock, and Pikachu continue their adventures. In “Attack of the Prehistoric Pok mon,” there’s a gold-rush-style fever to discover Pok mon fossils in Grampa Canyon, but the heroes–as well as the dreaded Team Rocket–find themselves trapped in a cave where the prehistoric Pok mon, including Charizard, are anything but fossils: they’re alive and angry! When Pikachu loses his voice in “A Chansey Operation,” Ash, Misty, and Brock rush him to the closest hospital, which is designated for humans only. The doctor is initially reluctant to treat Pikachu, but by the end of the episode, he’s engaged the good gang to help out in a rush of Pok mon emergencies. Finally, “Holy Matrimony!” reveals James of Team Rocket’s background–he’s really wealthy and his parents are desperate to find him. It won’t matter much that Brit James has parents with heavily put-on Louisiana-toned accents, especially when it turns out they’re tricking him into marrying. (Ages 5 and older) –N.F. Mendoza Customer Review: Charizard rules! Charizard is my favorite Pokemon! I also love dinosaurs, so Aerodactyl agaisn’t Charizard is one cool battle! The other 2 episodes aren’t bad either. (Charizard impression) Roar!!! Customer Review: Dinosaurs, Doctors, and Psychotic Fiances This is definitely one of the best Pokemon videos! It starts with “Attack of the Prehistoric Pokemon”. Ash and his fellow twerps end up in Grandpa Canyon, just in time for the “Great Fossil Rush”. Ash and Team Rocket end up underground with an angry Aerodactyl! It’s up to Jigglypuff to save the day! Next is “A Chansey Operation”. Doctor Proctor saves Pikachu from choking to death on an apple, but then has to help and entire truckload of Pokemon. After some light flirting, the Doc convinces Jessie to help him, along with the twerps. Finally, there’s “Holy Matrimony!” We find out the truth about James’s past! His crazy finace, Jessiebelle (who looks like eveyone’s favorite Rocket Girl), tries to hold him hostage, but Growlie, his pet Growlithe comes to the rescue! Then, Jessie and James leave in thier balloon, provoking one of the most Rocketshippy moments in Pokemon history! This tape is the best!
