What happens when a Jigglypuff can't sing or a Paras can't fight or a magician has a lame magic act? All these questions are answered in this volume of three Pokémon episodes from the popular TV series. In "The March of the Exeggutor Squad," Ash is hypnotized by a magician's Pokémon. Soon angry Exeggutors are about to rampage on a city, and Brock and Misty have to work fast to save the day. Meowth falls for a cute girl who wants to help all Pokémon. Unfortunately, her Pokémon won't fight--and thus won't evolve--in "The Problem with Paras." Separately, Ash and Team Rocket try to build Paras's confidence. By the end, even one of Ash's favorite Pokémon is evolving, albeit not a welcome event. In "The Song of Jigglypuff," the title Pokémon also has trouble--it can't sing. After some help from its new friends, Jigglypuff finds its voice, and a curious defense mechanism to boot. Typical shenanigans for the Pokémon fan age 4 to 10. --Doug Thomas

5.0 out of 5 stars Pokemon's neurotic pop star, February 7, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Pokemon - Jigglypuff Pop (Vol. 14) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Of the myriad Pokemon, I think Jigglypuff is the funniest. Its first appearance, in "The Song of Jigglypuff", is especially hilarious, as the poor Pokemon wanders the earth looking for an audience that won't fall asleep when it sings. (Needless to say, it never finds one.)

The pattern is always the same: Jigglypuff begins its song, everybody falls asleep, Jigglypuff gets upset that nobody stayed awake to hear the entire song, out comes the marker ... PUFF! It's priceless.

My one complaint is that a collection of Jigglypuff episodes hasn't been released. Its later appearances are just as funny, especially in "Attack of the Prehistoric Pokemon" (where we even see Jigglypuff's fantasies of stardom). But "The Song of Jigglypuff" is still well worth seeing.

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE JIGGLYPUFF!, January 22, 2000

This review is from: Pokemon - Jigglypuff Pop (Vol. 14) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Jigglypuff (Purin in the Japanese language version) is so cool. Just hearing Jigglypuff singing it's marvelous song fills me with wonder and delight. The first episode on this tape is about this wacky paraniod magician and some Exeggute and Exeggutor. Charmander also evolves into Charmeleon. The next episode is about a girl who's Paras is so weak that it'll never evolve. But with some help from Ash and the gang, and Team Rocket, it ends up evolving into Parasect. Then the final episode on this tape, is the epsiode of the video's title. A lonely Jigglypuff is seraching the land for people who can hear her song without going to sleep. It's absolutly hilarous to watch Jigglypuff put crouds of people to sleep abd then suddenly puff in it's cheeks and doodle on everyone's face with a permanent marker. These episodes are really enjoyable and are worth a few err laughs.

Ah, sweet irony. A sad Jigglypuff only wants someone to appreciate his singing, but everyone keeps falling asleep. Even the doofy Psiduck can't stay awake! Ash has the answer, and soon Jigglypuff puts on a concert in "The Town that Never Sleeps." A great episode featuring my favorite Pokemon. The second half doesn't appear to be on the next DVD.

The other episodes include a fake magician using Eggsecutor to hypnotise people, and Meowth falling in love. All good Pokemon fun.
