See, she didn't do much in Johto, is the thing. There was the Whirl Islands and... well, that's about the only interesting thing that happened with Misty. In regards to her mothering nature- that wasn't my point. Misty befriending/caring for a wild Pokemon in need is one thing (it makes for an...

Heracross and Donphan were both pretty hard hitters (Heracross beat Gary's Magmar and Spencer's Venusaur, and Donphan was used throughout the Battle Frontier), though they've never exactly been given a chance to shine. Swellow was a really good battler in Hoenn (hell, it went toe-to-toe with...

3d... wouldn't really work for Pokemon. Did it look good on consoles? God no. It looked terrible. Pokemon has an anime-esque aesthetic, and as we've seen with the console games, that doesn't translate well into the 3rd dimension. (I realize this may just be my opinion, but seriously, I don't see...

Believe me, so do I. Misty had a nice dynamic with Ash until Togepi sucked the life out of her. Iris is actually pretty good though. They give her stuff to do that actually contributes to the main plot (as in, doesn't seem like a pointless add on. Looking at you, Contests). As a side note, I...

Whilst Kanto certainly has a nostalgic flair to it, it certainly isn't any better than later seasons (barring the incredible theme song). Animation errors were prevalent, and battles were really dynamic (nothing will really ever top Charizard vs Magmar though). Sinnoh and Unova have greatly...

IF they do remake any Gen 3 games, it should just be Emerald. It had the best story and the Battle Frontier, plus we've only gotten three games per gen since the remakes started, so having both Ruby and Sapphire remakes doesn't fit the pattern now that we've got B2W2.

Most any episode with Ash's Charizard entertains me ("Can't Beat the Heat" immediately comes to mind). The show also really hit its peak during the second season, what with a bunch of cool ideas like a crystal Onix, unique Gym Challenges, well done character-based stories, and a league that Ash...

Interesting discussion. Hmm. Pokemon leaves a lot to the imagination when it comes to how an advanced civilization manages to function with no clear governing body, (effective)law enforcement, or proper educational facilities. Like others have said, the story isn't about a criminal...

First post outside of introduction thread, squee! I don't believe their to be anything wrong with the current generation's designs. Granted, we've treaded a lot of this ground before (Throh and Sawk are very obviously parallels to Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan), but Gamefreak manages to keep most...

Hey Pokecommunity! Name's Poke-Roogs (an unfortunate amalgamation of Pokemon and my surname, hehe). I've always been a fan of the Pokemon franchise, starting with Silver and watching the anime religiously up until the Battle Frontier (I picked up the manga wherever I could, but it's scarce...
