The Pilot of Pokémon I regard as one of the best cartoon pilots of all time, for its excitement, emotional value, and tenseness. The second episode of Pokémon was a nice introduction to the villains of the show, Jesse and James, and is able to show Ash's and Pikachus ever-growing bond. We were also given a brief introduction to Misty, Officer Jenny, and Nurse Joy. Overall, nice sweet simple episode that does a good job of setting up the world of Pokémon.
