Pokémon: Jirachi Wishmaker/YMMV


 * Magnificent Bastard: Butler was on the surface a friendly magician. But unbeknownst to most, Butler was a former Team Magma scientist who vowed revenge after an experiment to create a Groudon failed and resulted in his firing. Working with his girlfriend Diane, Butler found Jirachi hibernating in a crystal and gave it to Max in order to awaken it. Capturing the Pokémon Absol to prevent it from interfering, Butler attempted to use Jirachi's true eye as power source for creating a Groudon. When Ash and friends the group escaped with Jirachi, with the help of Diane and Absol, Butler followed them with a tracking device. Ambushing them, Butler successfully used Jirachi's third eye to create Groudon. When the Groudon came out as a energy stealing monster, Butler came up with the plan to destroy it, hoping to undo all problems that he caused.
 * They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: That subplot with May's wishing thing? Yeah, it seems like something important is going to come from that, but then she forgets to put in the last piece. What an Idiot!!
 * The Scrappy: Jirachi was disliked by many fans due to it's lazy and childish personality. It actually made Max more mature and tolerable by comparison!
