Holy heck this was a masterpiece. I love this. Felt like a meme compilation from 2012 at times and frankly I can't exactly say I dislike that, no matter how cringey that is. Also the ending was literal art. This makes Konosuba look like a fucking knock knock joke book compared to this single episode.

lets see here:
• Pokemon Stadium minigame reference!
• Magikarp pulled a Piccolo with the weights
• the Slowpoke song!!
• Slowking is a conehead??
• you mean to tell me they just left Magikarp up there and went on with their business??

funniest episodes in a long long time. Pokemon need episodes like these once in a while and Journeys is perfect for it. amazing!

Bursted out laughing when the machamp pulled its back & Ash reading a eulolgy for magikarp .... That Jamaican yadon song also had me. Loving they've kept jojo style comedy & face reactions to pokemon

WOAH, You are right, Go never captured a Boldore/Roggenrola so that must be Ash's Boldore, because I don't think that Boldore can live in the wild in Jotho

Two episodes in one, and possibly the most bizarre episode in Pokémon history, but I really enjoyed it XD. Next week, Sonia <3, and Leon vs. Raihan :D...

The first part was totally dumb and the second half was okay. Reminded me of the time when Slowpoke evolved into Slowbro in Kanto.

With episodes like these Slowpoke gotta be featured.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Like any Shounen hero, Gou finally got his training and tournament arc with the price of his Magikarp jumping into outer space.

Hahaha this episode was really fun to watch, also Magikarp going to space reminded me the episode 210 of the original series where an pidgey’s dream was to fly into space and it arrives there at the end of the episode, a very striking and beautiful episode where we saw space for the first time in the animated.

Ngl this was one of the funniest episodes of Pokemon I've ever seen. There were so many references and that jamaican song was brilliant. Loved it.

at first i thought - hahaha? episode about magiCRAP? what could that bring?
but i was totally wrong, though to be very idiotic episode, i laughed so much hard,
in the machmp thing, the whole jumping tournament and magikarp face when going space xDDD
and after that ash reading monolog was great

second part was weaker to my opinion, though i wanted that slowking "hat" thing to hit magikarp head, too bad it didn't happened.
the slowpok song in the eng dub wasn't really bad, the whole changing between ash go pikachu and rabbut was little dragged but nice.

this episode make the strong feeling from the start of this series that they want to concentrate more on comedy in this one, and they are doing it great gotta say,

James just quietly shutting the door on the Magikarp champ was the perfect ending to this weird double feature LOL
