When Team Rocket says that everyone just needs to escape, the Litwick all reappear, led by a Lampent. They create a portal to the ghost world, and we're pretty explicitly told here that if you go in, you're ****ing going to actual Hell. The Litwick try to force the pokemon into it, and when that fails, the walls crumble, revealing a ghostly ether all around the heroes. Cilan decides that they need to fight the Litwick (probably because no problems on this show are solved by anything other than fighting or friendship, and the latter seems unlikely to work here), so everyone (except Iris) sends out a pokemon to fight. However, the Litwick are just too powerful, and almost knock Jessie and Cilan into the ghost world. Ash and James, however, rescue the other on the other team, and both groups agrees to help each other. Working together, they’re able to fight the ghost pokemon-- Yeah, Dwebble! Use X-Scissor on pokemon with a quadruple resistance! Go, Iris! You stand there and look scared! You are a model of valiance, girl!
They knock the pokemon back into the ghost world, which somehow instantly cures Team Rocket's exhaustion and thunderstorm is gone now or something, I don’t know. The mansion reveals itself to be nearly destroyed and falling apart, the Litwick having used vaguely defined illusion powers to make it appear almost new, and Team Rocket escapes in jet packs because there's not enough time left in the episode to fight the heroes and blast off. Rain brews again, and even though the mansion is now empty, the heroes decide to just seek shelter elsewhere.
Yeah, this episode would be 8/10 just for Jessie's face alone. This is easily the best filler episode since Evil Togepi, and it very well might be better. **** anyone who uses that quote of pokemon not being evil, these Litwick literally try steal peoples’ life energy and send them into Hell when they’re no longer useful. ****, that is as evil as you can get without involving an orphanage or Germany.
