Summary: I agree with the editorial that syas first two are good but last is bad
Comment: The fist two episodes were great. I love the one about the race, when Ash rides Ponyta and it evolves into Rapidash. Lara was a great characetr and the episode itself was funny and exciting. The first episode is great as well; we ffinally learn that Psyduck is not a useless Pokemon. And it's fun as well.
However the last episode . . .
I know it's emotional and supposed to be sad, but I'm sorry, while watching "The Kangaskhan Kid" I was laughing. I mean, the parents are flying over a jungle when the father lets his son "have a closer look". Btw the father, even though he was kind of funny, was quite possibly the worst character in the series. I hated him. He was a complete idiot. If I were the mother I would have divorced him; I mean he DROPPED HIS CHILD INTO A FOREST AND WASN'T EVEN WORRIED! Ugh! I wasn't too crazy about the mom eithe, but her frustration towards the father was completely understandable. This episode was supposed to be sda, but really it's stupid and I HATE THE FATHER!!!!!
However, the first two were really great. Classic episodes.

Summary: Two outta three ain't bad...
Comment: You know the drill, Pokemon is great, three Pokemon eps on a DVD/VHS, yadda yadda yadda. The first episode is "The Ninja-Poke Showdown", in which Ash sets out to win a Soul Badge from Gym Leader Koga, but he must first naviagate a mansion full of tricks and traps as well as deal with Koga's sister Aya (whom Brock immediately develops a crush for, of course). And naturally, Team Rocket has to butt in, with their most outrageous entrance yet.
Then it's off to the Safari Zone in "The Pokemon Flame-athon". In this five star episode, the gang meets Lara Laramie, who is a member of the Laramie family who breed powerful Pokemon. She has her heart set on winning the annual Pokemon race the next day, with her faithful Ponyta. But disaster falls upon her, thanks to her rival Dario and Team Rocket, and she breaks her arm, unable race. Ash volunteers to help her out, but there's one slight problem... he's never ridden a horse before! Can Ash and Ponyta beat Dario? And what other tricks does Team Rocket have up their sleeve?
Finally, comes one of the worst episodes of Pokemon ever made. "The Kangaskhan Kid" is a huge, unmanageable mess. In the Safari Zone, Ash and company come across a couple searching for their child they lost several years ago, who has lived among the Kangaskhan and become the Kangaskhan Kid. This episode was very, very bad. The dialouge made no sense, and the animation was stiff and mechanical, unlike the smooth animation of the previous two eps. Fortunately, this episode is at the end, so you can just shut off the DVD after "The Pokemon Flame-Athon"
Despite the addition of this horrible episode, the other two are well worth the purchase with terrific animation and well-told stories.

Ash tries to get the soul badge at Fuchsia Gym, but the gym is a ninja mansion full of treacherous traps! Then, devious racer Dario has rigged the Pokemon race with his sabotage, wounding the front-runner, Lara! Can Ash ride Lara's Ponyta and win the race? A lost boy, Tommy, has been raised by the Kangaskhan to speak Pokemon language! Now Team Rocket is trying to trap the Kangaskhan, and only Ash, Pikachu and their friends can stop them, save the Kangaskhan, and reunite Tommy with his family!
