Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Taken on its own terms, Pokémon is an agreeable if somewhat cutesy children's entertainment that emphasizes friendship, perseverance, and good sportsmanship. These new adventures (the third television series) take Ash, Misty, and Brock to the land of Johto, where they encounter new Pokémon and people, including Professor Elm, a former student of Professor Oak. (Professor Elm gives first-time trainers their initial Pokémon in Johto.) In "The Double Trouble Header," Ash is challenged by Casey, a novice trainer, after he dismisses her favorite baseball team. The comic villains Team Rocket (Jessie, James, and Meowth) trick Casey into demanding a rematch so they can kidnap Pikachu and Chikorita. When Team Rocket's scheme inevitably backfires, Ash and Casey part as friends. Woodruff the Forest Ranger offers a lesson in ecology in "A Sappy Ending." Team Rocket has built a robot to collect the sweet tree sap several types of Pokémon live on, upsetting the ecological balance of the local forest. Ash, Misty, and Brock help Woodruff route the villains and acquire a Heracross as a bonus. Suitable for all ages. --Charles Solomon

5.0 out of 5 stars Pokemon keeps getting better!, March 17, 2001
By 
Mark J. Hensley "SparkMark1" (Aurora, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The series continues as Ash Ketchum, along with his friends Misty, Brock, and Pikachu, travels to the land west of his hometown...the world of Johto. As an older pokemon fan, I can appreciate this a little more. The Johto series just improves on the first two seasons. The animation is much more detailed and crisp. The stories are corny, but they still stay on track of the main focus....Ash's quest to become a Pokemon master. Plus, with 100+ new pokemon, the Johto series can't get any better. This video is a must for any Pokemon fan. With Pokemon Johto, it's a whole new world we live in....

5.0 out of 5 stars Love those new starter pokemon!, September 20, 2001
By 
I like this video because it shows all the new starter pokemon in this video and their voices too. Cyndaquil had a really cute voice^_^. Now let me tell a bit about these episodes. "Don't Touch That 'Dile" features Totodile, a water type pokemon. And also features Cyndaquil, a fire type and also features the legendary pokemon, Suicune! There is big trouble at Prof. Elm's lab, a Totodile has been stolen! Ash, Misty and Brock have to be detectives to solve this mystery. "The Double Trouble Header" features a new pokemon, Chikorita, a grass type. This time Ash has to battle a trainer named Casey, who is a big fan of the
Electabuzz Baseball Team. Casey has a Chikorita! Ash and Casey wanted to battle against each other. Casey loses and starts to cry. She runs in the forest and bumps into Team Rocket. Team Rocket tells her that Ash was cheating in the battle. Casey and Ash have a rematch. In the middle of the battle Team Rocket comes and steals Chikorita and Pikachu! Will Ash and Casey get their pokemon back? "A Sappy Ending" is about a pokemon called Heracross, a bug type pokemon. Ash and Friends go into a forest where the Heracross lived. A guy named Woodruff tells them that the Pinsir forest had been invaded by some bandits. Ash and Co. has to figure what has been bothering Pinsir in the Pinsir Forest. The Pinsir started to invade the Heracross Forest. Ash and Co. have to be detectives to figure out yet another problem? I hope when you buy this video you'll love it a lot.

5.0 out of 5 stars The king of Kids' WB! A good place to start., March 13, 2001
As I heard from the Nintendo Power magazine, Suicune (my most favorite pokemon) runs away from Ash Ketchum, Ash Ketchum plays a little game of baseball, or Bulbasaur gets pollen sucked up from Heracross.

The rest of the review:

Graphics=10/10-The graphics look more like the 1990s instead of the 1960s. Chikorita, Cyndaquil, Totodile, and other pokemon look awesome in this form.

Sound=9/10-New sound effects will keep your hands off the volume control. The G/S pokemon voices are super!

Laughter=9/10-The Johto Journeys are laugh-out-loud funny. Baseball is really, really funny!

Overall, this is the best Pokemon series of all time. If you want the best Pokemon series, stick with the Johto Journeys. It's well worth your money.
