I did a fairly long synopsis. Do you think it needs to be shorter?

Perfectly fine. The more detail, the better. MaverickNate 06:26, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Synopsis

The synopsis for this episode is poor in quality and really needs to be cleaned up. I put a slight dent in what needs to be rectified by completely re-writing the first three sections, but there is a good deal more work to be done. Here are some of the problems that I noticed:

  • Run-on sentences:
    • "Meowth attacks with his Fury Swipes but Gligar jumps away and Meowth lands a swipe right across Jessie's face and Jessie instantly responds by giving Meowth her version of Fury Swipes."
  • Unnecessary repetition of adjectives, names or phrases in general.
    • "It looks like the heroes are in trouble as Pikachu can't attack for fear of electrocuting the heroes as well."
    • "Jessie and James comment that they have never heard of him which embarrasses Gligarman, Meowth then asks why Gligarman is wearing long underwear which embarrasses the Gligarman further."
  • The example above is also one of a poorly constructed 'sentence', as it is in fact two sentences incorrectly connected with a comma. It should resemble:
    • "Jessie and James explain that they have never heard of Gligarman while Meowth further embarrasses him by asking why he is dressed in long underwear."

Ash Mad

Should it be mentioned that this is the first time Ash seemed to be mad at Brock for going crazy over a girl. He's never actually been mad like Misty. Djulienr 02:33, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
