YMMV / Pokémon Learning League

Go To

  • Broken Aesop:
    • "Win-Win Solutions" is about learning to compromise so that both you and your friend can get what you want. However, in the Apply section, "walk away from the situation and cool off" isn't accepted as the correct answer, even if it's a valid thing to do before doing the "correct" one: "find out what each person wants and needs".
    • In "Nutrition Labels", Max gets upset when Team Rocket steals "all the good food away". Thinking that they're only left with "healthy" choicesnote , Ash and co. call Quinn for help in reading the nutrition label on their remaining foods. They learn that they still have nutritious and delicious food left for them and Max declares that Team Rocket are the "real losers" for stealing their junk food, but both sides would've won either way because Team Rocket was just hungry and needed something to eat, while Ash and co. didn't want to eat junk food, anyway.
    • In "Self-Control", Brock calls out Ash for getting impatient and cutting in lines, prompting them to call Quinn to teach him how to think before he acts. They learn to control their "difficult" feelings as they explore the fair, but after Ash wins the Ring Toss game, he gets a special ticket to bypass all the lines, rendering Quinn's lesson on patience moot.
    • In "Dealing With Anger", Ash and May help Team Rocket defuse their anger over falling into their own trap just so they can all have some peace and quiet. Despite their best efforts to calm them down after rescuing them, Team Rocket still argue with each other about the trap, but they decide to walk away to calm down on their own before talking to each other again. However, the last shot shows them walking away into the distance together.
  • Obvious Beta: Non-video game example. The Try and Apply segments in "Sound Energy" look unfinished compared to the other episodes. Text placeholders are used for Max and Ash instead of character models, none of the buttons are animated, and the graphics aren't polished.
