In this episode of the Pika Pals Podcast, Jed rewatches “Pokémon Fashion Flash” — where Ash and friends wander onto Scissor Street, a glamorous hub of Pokémon salons, beauty parlours, and questionable fashion choices. What begins as a light-hearted look at Pokémon makeovers quickly turns into a clash of philosophies about appearance, care, and what truly brings out a Pokémon’s strength — with Team Rocket running a suspiciously successful salon of their own.

💬 Join the conversation:

• ​Do you agree with Suzie’s belief that a Pokémon’s strength comes from within, or do looks matter too?
• ​Was this Brock’s most unexpected character moment so far?
• ​Which Pokémon makeover from the Indigo League stands out to you the most?
