This week we venture into the Safari Zone with two chapters of the Pokemon Adventures Manga and three episodes of the Anime, including an episode that was banned in America for all the gun use. Then we "bridge" the gap between those and the holiday episodes with the anime's version of the bike route, Duplica who is very reminiscent of a girl in Saffron city, and then another banned episode that even was taken out of rotation in Japan. Then it's the two holiday episodes that were actually aired later but canonically belong here. Come, join us on this crazy route!
