Episodic plots? WRONG, Pokemon is always known for having a serial-style storyline, which is why I enjoyed it way back. But I'm not surprised given that the TMNT reference was for Blastoise, given that its the turtle species of Pokemon. The use of Ninjas also isn't surprising, yet Ninjas were in pop culture well before TMNT even existed. Also, the Koopas were introduced in 1983's Mario Bros, predating the TMNT. If anything, Blastoise seems like a nicer Bowser and a Squirtle acts like a nicer Koopa Troopa.
