Ash has just left Saffron City but there's no time for him to rest! Firstly, in Primeape Goes Bananas Ash and the gang encounter an extremely mischievous Mankey that evolves into a Primeape. Luckily, by the end of the episode, Ash would catch Primeape (although don't get too attached).Next up, in Pokémon Scent-sation Ash arrives in Celadon City to go after his fifth gym badge already! After angering Erika at her perfume shop, Ash eventually sneaks his way in and inadvertently causes the whole gym to burn down. He got the gym badge in the end too, not a bad days work if you ask me. Make sure to check out my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3KryRseiUsMXwHEVMwFwiA) too!

On today's episode, we continue and wrap up the mini Saffron City arc. Firstly, in The Tower of Terror Ash sets out to catch a Ghost Pokémon in Lavender Town's Pokémon Tower. After many shenanigans (and temporarily dying!) Ash manages to "catch" his very own Haunter. In the next episode, Haunter Versus Kadabra, Haunter follows Ash back to Saffron City for the big climactic showdown with Sabrina. Unfortunately, because Ash never properly caught Haunter it's almost impossible to control!Make sure to check out my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3KryRseiUsMXwHEVMwFwiA) too!

This week we FINALLY wrap up this arc we've been on for an eternity! Or is it still continuing on? Who knows!Today we take a look at Tentacool & Tentacruel and The Ghost of Maiden's Peak. These two episodes are mostly filler, but there is still plenty to talk about. Firstly, Misty catches Horsea! It's her first on-screen capture and the very first Pokémon of hers that shows any sort of personality. Then I dissect the absolutely absurd nature of the antagonistic Gastly who has been harassing Maiden's Peak for centuries.Make sure to check out my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3KryRseiUsMXwHEVMwFwiA) too!

The format of Who's That Pokémon is changing slightly! Instead of two podcast episodes per week, I'll now be doing one episode per week but still covering two episodes of the Pokémon anime! The first episode today is Island of the Giant Pokémon. In the final part of the St. Anne arc, Ash and the gang wash up on a mysterious island and must find all of their Pokémon. We get loads of insight into Ash's Pokémon and their personalities here. In the second episode, I cover the first-ever BANNED Pokémon episode. Beauty and the Beach was banned by 4Kids initially because of a scene showing James with inflatable breasts. However, several years later they dubbed the episode in a highly censored manner for some reason. Despite the censoring, this is one of the creepiest and most bizarre Pokémon episodes in history. Make sure to check out my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3KryRseiUsMXwHEVMwFwiA) too!

Ash Ketchum is growing up right before our eyes. In Electric Shock Showdown, not only does he win another a gym badge, but he actually does it by winning a battle this time!

Along the way, we also run into Bill at a mysterious lighthouse, as well as encountering a gigantic Dragonite. Is Mystery at the Lighthouse a good episode?
