Pokemon S1 E51
My one-and-a-half-year-old daughter enjoys watching the first season of Pokémon quite a bit. Not as much as she enjoys watching Labyrinth, of course, but that goes without saying.
Anyway, that first season, man. There’s an episode where a freakin’ tidal wave of jellyfish destroy an ENTIRE TOWN. Knockin’ over skyscrapers! It is, in the purest sense of the word, intense.
And yet this is a world where nobody minds that the rats cause thunderstorms, and where fossils occasionally get up and start walking and talking, and where a mole can do what a bulldozer can’t, etc.
HAHAHA no. The reason there was only one Venusaur is because the Ivysaur are even worse at battling than Ash is when he fights the first gym leader for the first time.
