Review PG02: The Chase

[GhostLucario]

I didn't like this episode very much, I've never cared about Giovanni or TR, really. Looker was nice, animation was great, but I still wish these were longer not just under 5 min

I LOVED THIS EPISODE; IT EVEN ANSWERED WHAT HAPPENED TO GIOVANNI AFTER RED DEFEATED HIM, AND WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM BEFORE HE WENT TO REVIVE TEAM ROCKET IN JOHTO; HE WAS ON THE RUN IN HIDING!!!!!! AWESOMESAUCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Muur]

Those were two pretty badass episodes. Looking forward to more.

 

[Uhane]

This ep disproves the common theory that Looker was the man from the International Police onboard the SS. Anne which sunk and left him washed up at the end of ORAS.

 

[technickal]

Wow. This was an interesting episode. Almost didn't feel like Pokémon. But nonetheless, I enjoyed it. The cliffhanger at the end makes me glad this won't be the last we'll see of Giovanni.

 

[SammyW27]

I just loved how intense and dramatic it was.

Plus, it was a hoot seeing actual authorities involved instead of kids and a gimmicky clone!

 

[fawfulmark2]

SWAT teams in Pokemon: never thought I'd see the day, and the day it happened was strangely hype.

 

[Esserise]

As I mentioned in the other thread, the music in this one was very good. Overall a good ep.

This ep disproves the common theory that Looker was the man from the International Police onboard the SS. Anne which sunk and left him washed up at the end of ORAS.

It disproves the theory that the S.S. Anne sunk and left him to wash up on the Battle Resort, but the idea of him being that Interpol agent is still open (and quite likely now that he's been shown investigating Team Rocket in Kanto).

 

[Syrinaris]

Really liked this episode. As much as I like the main series anime, it's really refreshing to see some of the other game characters get some focus. Even if it's less than 5 minutes of focus at a time, lol.
Not gonna lie, it was great to see Looker in charge, and kickin' down doors.

 

[Pokefan19]

People in the Pokemon world must be somewhat superhuman if they can take punishment from such attacks in this world lol

 

[The Outrage]

Team Rocket might not be disbanded? Gen 1 remake or something?

How do you get that from the statement...

We know from FrLg that the Sevii Island branch never got the memo when Giovanni left, and the team resurfaced in three years.

 

[ManUtd22]

I saw the two episodes, and I wonder if the man who is investigate the building searching (looking for) Giovanni is the same person who give you Lapras in the pokemon red and green

 

[Lufenium]

I love how much more mature and intense this episode is compared to previous animations. My only complaint really is that it's so short. Otherwise, this was a definite step in the right direction. Seeing how the Police operate in the Pokemon world was interesting too.

What makes you think that? The Lapras guy was a Silph employee.

 

[Keshav]

Would be much better than watching SM

 

[ManUtd22]

What makes you think that? The Lapras guy was a Silph employee.

From the dress style and the head style
He also looks like Looker but Looker didn't appear before in RED And Green
He appered firstly in Platinum
So I think he and The Lapras Guy are the same

 

[Esserise]

He also looks like Looker but Looker didn't appear before in RED And Green

He doesn't just look like Looker, he literally IS Looker. These are "untold stories," they're saying that Looker WAS in Kanto, investigating Team Rocket, and we just didn't ever see that part.

Exactly. The games are largely told from our perspective, so if we weren't involved, we don't "know" about it, ie: the raid on the Veridian Gym.

 

[ManUtd22]

He doesn't just look like Looker, he literally IS Looker. These are "untold stories," they're saying that Looker WAS in Kanto, investigating Team Rocket, and we just didn't ever see that part.

Well, I love Looker and hope to see him again and maybe he is a looker

 

[Silktree]

Regarding Looker's personality, it is possible that he became less serious in later games due to his amnesia in ORAS. Maybe he never remembered that he'd been looking for Giovanni.
