Winner: FireghtBug (08:52)
Second Place: pokemonvortex (12:01)
Third Place: Emboar02 (12:22)
Fourth Place: Ilikebugs (18:19)
Fifth Place: boredcollegekid (28:39)

Q1) The VIZ Media title of the Pokémon Adventures chapter in which Flaaffy debuts contains a word one letter off from this CAP Pokémon.
Q2) A certain character of the day's name is contained in the category name of the one Pokémon they were shown to own. The character’s Pokémon is also featured in that episode's segment of Who's That Pokémon in Japanese. What is the character’s name?
Q3) Of the episodes in which more than one Pokémon belonging to a main character learns new moves, this is the only one in which no Pokémon evolves.

Kerfluffle, Tad, Rematch at the Nacrene Gym! (Alts: May's Egg-Cellent Adventure / Some Kind of Laziness!)

Grats to all finishers! Sorry about there being 2 alts for Q3, I should've been more thorough, that's all on me and not due to the QCers Pants and ashiemore, whom I thank for QCing. Luckily the alts don't seem to have affected the rankings, so there's that.
