Heck No Pooh's Adventures

Lucario’s Adventure in Balto, part 8. Lucario only appears in the credits, which has a Miley Cyrus song, so the only comment I can give is…

• 2:17 GIRL: Granny, are Lucarios extinct?

• Crossover madness: 
• Lucario’s stupidity: 
• Lucario’s uselessness: 
• Grating typos: 
• Obviousness: 

Overall: 2/5

0.6/10. Pretty much the tamest and most simple crossover I’ve reviewed in a while. It’s bad, sure, but at least there’s some reaction shots that fit well, a little concern over the fact that Lucario is not like the others, and a single guest star as a breath of fresh air from the crossover overloads. Unfortunately, I’ve going to have to deal with what only fits in the sense that one comes from another company and another is a talking machine, but is just plain ridiculous.

• 0:50 What? Lucario’s still there, when he could’ve leaped his way down like he usually does?
• 3:20 You could’ve heard it if you actually saw it, you dumbass.
• 3:48 The #1 most fitting reaction shot in the entire video.
• 4:58 Good thing the guy who made this video knows when to keep his characters relatively quiet.

• 0:06 Does it even look like Lucario?
• 2:00 This guy could’ve kicked Steele’s ass when he had the change, but no. This is one of those videos.
• 2:26 That doesn’t help at all.
• 3:13 *drinks to the shot of Lucario running away*
• 6:35 I’ve got to hand it to this video - at least it takes awareness of how unusual the guest star looks in the subject universe.

• 2:03 Another actual guest star? Ho boy…
• 2:37 You call that saving him?
• 3:12 [link]
• 4:38 You’re a Lucario! You should know!
• 5:33 “There okay!!” Ugh…
• 7:38 It could be worse.

Lucario’s Adventure in Balto, part 4. This is the smallest commentary I’ve done in years. The fewer the better…

• 5:39 Lucario’s supposed to be a badass, not a dopey/aggressive animated sidekick.
• 6:40 You said you would help, didn’t you?
• 7:58 Subtitles?

Lucario’s Adventure in Balto, part 3. The film is loosely based on a true story. The true story did not have talking birds or polar bears, but it sure as hell didn’t have any blue, two-legged jackals.

• 7:24 Lucario is just working with Boris, and ruined a joke. That just makes him even more useless.
• 7:31 Where did that rock come from anyway?
• 8:54 That coming from a Pokémon.

Lucario’s Adventure in Balto, part 2. Wait, where’s Lucario?

• 1:26 There’s Lucario. How did he get all the way to 1925?
• 1:40 And Lucario doesn’t have company. Dull, but a relief.
• 2:12 Lucario, what are you sighing about? You’re not the one with a crush on a red husky.
• 3:31 Why do I feel that Lucario is going to be more developed that Pooh Bear ever was in his adventures?
• 4:20 This video’s stench?
• 5:08 Well, of course it didn’t. Your voice is too whispery.
• 5:32 What an awkward use of a sound effect.
• 6:25 Ash cameo. So he isn’t alone after all.
• 7:33 Forget what I said earlier, Lucario basically copies Boris.

Balto finally came to Netflix UK, and while it is a little over the top, it still provides a decent amount of entertainment value. In sumnation, I will finally choose to riff an old submission from Joseph Martinez that invovles Balto, and Pokémon. No, it’s not Ash Ketchum, who already has plans on screwing it up, but one single Pokémon. Get ready to sit through one of the only surviving Pooh’s Adventure videos currently on Vimeo, Lucario’s Adventure in Balto, part 1.

• 0:04 Our first true sign of badness - a lazy recolour.
• 0:28 Hmm, no theme song. There’s a departure.
