Episode Reviews: The school of hard knocks

Last shown on British Television: Not sure...

By Ben C

Who's that Pokémon? Not sure
Pikachu's Jukebox? Pokérap! Thursday (4th) one
Brock or Tracey? Brock!

This episode begins with Ash and the others walking through a thick fog. He and Misty are argueing, as usual. Brock pulls a table and chairs out of his backpack (I love anime =) and says he's going to have some Cerulean City coffee. He says Ash and Misty might be too young, so maybe they can have some prunejuice. Misty says she wants tea. Brock pulls out his offical Pokémon tea set! (I want it!) He says he'll use officail Mt. Moon Spring Water! And he's going to make French crépes, and Misty says she loves French stuff. But he needs a fire.

Ash and Pikachu to get firewood. They see a small fire in the distance! They see a young boy in a suit running on a treadmill, surrounded by a bunch of other kids, holding candles. One of them holds up a picture of a Pidgey, and asks if the kid knows what it is, and what its special attacks are, etc. They don't sound too nice. When he doesn't answer, they speed up the treadmill, and he falls.

Ash demands to know what's going on. One of the guys says nothing. Misty comes, and tells them to stop bullying that kid. Ash aggrees, but he can't exactly take on all 5 of them. They sy they don't want to fight. It would make Pokémon Tech look bad. They leave.

Brock says they must be from Pokémon Technical. He reads a paper about it, while Pikachu climbs on the treadmill. Brock accidenlty hits a button, and it goes faster, and Pikachu falls off. Brock says Pokémon Tech is a school that millionares kid's go to. Ash wonders where it is. Suddenly the fog clears, revealing the shcool! A voice says that fog battle techniques were over for the day, and tomorrow will be snow battle tactics. =)

The kid says some information about Pidgey, and Ash asks why he didn't answer the others. He says that the questions would get harder. His parents worked hard to get him into the school and he doesn't want to let them down. The classes are so hard, some people are held back many years! A Beginner has the equivalent of 2 badges. Intermediate has 4, and Advanced has 6. The teachers don't know how some kids are treated. Ash wants to see that stop.

Joe, the kid, pulls out a picture of a girl, who is kind of in charge. Ash says she's pretty. Brock says she can violate his rights whenever- thenMisty hits them over the head. She's definilty angry.

We see Team Rocket. They say they have bad memories of Pokémon Tech. They studdied for the big test, but that night they had froliced, sure that their future was good. They got the lowest test scores ever!

Uh, can't remember the next part. Something about Jezzel (the girl from the picutre) being the best trainer in the school. Well, Misty and Joe are going to have a battle. Joe says he always beats Water Pokémon on the simulator. Misty sends Starmie, and Joe sends a Weepinbell. Starmie uses Water Gun, and Weepinbell in defeaten in one hit!

Jezzel says that Misty is from a Gym, so her Pokémon are much more experienced. She says that Joe is an embarassment. Brock and Ash are saying how pretty she is. =) Jezzel says she's the top student at the school. Jessie and James, who are watching from a window, say that she's even more conceited then they are! James says she's cute. Mewoth says he's cuter. =) Jessie and James hit him.

Jezzel says she'd help Joe, but he's a weakling. Misty says a true friend wouldn't walk away. Ash wants to help, but Brock tells him never get involved in a cat fight. Jezzel sends Graveler. Misty says Ground Pokémon are weak against water. Starmie uses Water gun, but Graveler reflects it, and hit Starmie. It's gem is shattered, and it is thrown through a window, and into a pool outside. Misty is stunned. She says Jezzel is probably going to send another Pokémon that's weak against water.

Jezzel says that a Pokémon that is weaker, but better trained can win. Ash says he has two badges. Jezzel asks how long he's had Pikachu. He says about two months. She's surprised that he hasn't even been able to train it, and that its running free. Ash says he doesn't want to train Pikachu, or Pidgeotto or Butterfree! Jezzel says he only had 3? Ash says each of his has the power of two! Jezzel is also surprised he started with a Pikachu. They're hard to handle. They really aren't that good until you evolve them. Pikachu's are really just cute, and make good pets. She says he didn't know? She laughs.

Battle! Jezzel sends Cubone! Pikachu uses Thundershock, but Cubone blocks! Cubone uses Lerr, and Pikachu gets really dizzy and falls down. Ash says to stare it down, and Pikachu makes a REALLY silly face, and walks up to Cubone, who hits him over the head with a bone. Ash says that was a cheap trick. Pikachu wakes up, and Cubone hits him again! Ash tells him to hang in there, and give it your best shot! Cubone uses Bonemerang, but Pikachu dodges, and hits Cubone, causing its skull helmet to spin around so it can't see! It bites Cubone on the tail, and claws at it. Cubone straightens it's helmet, and then its Bonmerang hits it in the head! It starts crying. Jezzel can't beleive she lost. A Pikachu has never been known to win with anything but electricity!

Team Rocket! They say thier lines. Meowth jumps out of the pool. Jezzel recognizes hem as being the ones who got the worst grades in the school! Do they really want to face Jezzel and the five others? They throw their Poké Balls, which hit Team Rocket, who run away.

Jezzel says there are some things you can't learn at school. Joe says he's going to start over with his first Pokémon. Maybe they'll meet again? They have each other's pictures. They're friends, pretty much. Ash wonders why he and Misty can;t be that way. Misty says because he owes her a bike! Jezzel says maybe they'll battle again, and they leave.
