Good 'Quil Hunting

Gotta Watch’em All Podcast 137 Recording Date: 4/6/2026 Publish Date: 4/7/2027 Watch the video version of this podcast at: http://patreon.com/pokemonprofessor With last week’s episode leaving us just outside Azalea Town, we surely should be arriving there this episode… right? The narrator takes the wind out of our Azalea Town sails almost immediately as we see the party lost in the woods, when we meet Koji, a somewhat pushy and aggressive Trainer that is tracking a wild Cyndaquil. Once Ash hears this, he considers it a challenge and breaks off from the pack. That’s when things get interesting. Team Rocket shares some insight on how they had to work odd jobs between their Rocket duties in order to keep up with their villainous lifestyle. They bust out the Meowthinator mech to take on Ash and the crew, and ultimately go after the Cyndiquil, as it is something new for them to hyper fixate on. We see Cyndaquil use a massive Flamethrower on the Meowthinator which sets Pikachu up for the final strike. Just before a the massive explosion, Ash captures Cyndaquil in a Pokéball to shield him from the blast. Ash immediately lets Cyndaquil out, and we can see the bonding already happening. Koji cuts the pleasantries short and challenges Ash for the Cyndaquil, even though he technically already caught it. Ash feels confident after seeing Cyndaquil’s Flamethrower take out the Meowthinator, but things don’t go as planned for Ash, and he has to switch out his typical attack heavy style for something more defensive. In the end, Ash is victorious, and Cyndaquil is now part of the family.
