Oops, I missed this one while binge watching old episodes of "Pokémon". With this one, I have now officially seen every episode of the first season of "Pokémon". For reals, this time! This introduces us to one of the most noted pokemon, Jigglypuff. I always did wonder where it got those markers from that it uses to draw on people's faces. It turns out it just got them from Ash's backpack. I don't know why he'd have one of those on him in the first place, but whatever. This episode's setup was pretty weird, with how they went to a city of rude people.
Actually, I thought that bit was treated rather realistically. I...don't know what's up with this one scene where a fat woman spanks Jessie. Let's just ignore that. It's great to see the origin of such a popular character in the mythology, especially in the anime. I like how they set up how Jigglypuff will make more appearances. I remember back when the pokemon series had three episodes on a single VHS tape. I don't know if those even exist anymore and while I didn't have any myself, it's quite nostalgic. ***1/2
