I was rewatching the kanto series and I noticed something.

The safari zone in the anime wasn't only used for the safari game, but it was also a path from one city to another. is this true? or am I just not looking at it right. SInce there was a banned episode there which creates uncertainty here and there. What are ur views?

Pretty sure the Safari Zone encompassed the catching area and a pokemon preserve as seen in "The Kangaskhan Kid". And they aren't banned everywhere, so they can still be viewed if you can find them by searches. As for my view it doesn't matter since Anime already ignores a lot of game aspects/mechanics.

BTW, Hasn't it been like 2 weeks and no new Dubbed Episode yet? What's up with that?

It's just another Haitus, many are expecting a new season due to an interview with John Loeffler. I think he said the next opening was called "Rival Destinies" or something along those lines. I don't think it'll be off for too long now.

Actually 47 episodes have aired in the dub so far, that number doesn't include the TR vs TP, and Brock and Dawn specials.

What about the Japanese episodes? I never heard they got a second season while they actually crossed 47 episodes...I know episodes in Japan may air differently and such but also, I don't believe the difference would be that much.

The Japanese episodes in a completely different way to the dubbed episodes. Each saga is usually just aired under one series/season. Then the dub usually divides the saga into four season (usually around about 50 episodes). Take Ash's adventures in Hoenn, that aired in Japan as one series called Advanced Generation, which was divided by the dub into Advanced, Advanced Challenge, Advanced Battle and Battle Frontier. Theres also Sinnoh, which aired in Japan as one series called Diamond and Pearl and was divided by the dub into D&P, D&P: Battle Dimension, D&P: Galactic Battles and D&P: Sinnoh League Victors.

It's very likely that they're airing repeats because the dub has gotten very close to the original so they're waiting until there's a bigger gap before airing new episodes again. We were only 15 episodes or so away.

In the future when you have Simple Questions like this use the pinned topic instead of making a thread of your own. And as Cirno said they need to distant out the Sub and Dub. They do the same thing in other anime when the anime gets to close to the manga. Not to mention Season 15 is in the works so that is probably another reason.

...You didn't move my answer >______>

So the Rise of Darkrai CD is "Dialga vs Palkia vs Darkrai Music Collection" and Pokemon 2000 BGM is on "Pokémon: The Movie 2000 Original Motion Picture Score"

Will episodes 23 - 24 ever air?

I'm not sure if it's planned/scheduled or something, but will the dubs of episodes 23 - 24 ever air?​

There is no time table for when and if these episodes will be aired. So there is still definite air date or guarantee that these episodes will air.

In the future though please use this thread when asking questions.

I have a question;


i LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie however I haven't watched it for a while and now I am a little confused; This is an from bulbapedia"

"Lawrence III, a wealthy collector of the world's most valuable antiques, wishes to make his collection complete by catching the three legendary birds, Moltres, Zapdos and Articuno. Any one of them would be a priceless addition to Lawrence's collection, but he aims to capture the three in order to capture the fourth and most powerful bird, Lugia."


Now does bringing out Lugia involve actually CATCHING ALL the birds or does Lugia only appear when the Birds are fighting? Or Both?

hey guys, i need a little help

Can anyone remember/tell me which pokemon opening sequence featured most of the legendary pokemon? i remember once watching an opening that had all (or nearly all) the legendaries in, but cant seem to find it again. i know it was post gen-4, cos it featured the diamond and pearl legendaries. i dont think it was a regualar season either, so maybe a movie? its been driving me mad XD ive tried searching for movie openings on youtube for the D/P era, but cant seem to find any. please help XD

Advanced Battle featured them all, up to Gen III obviously. But after watching all the D/P ones on Youtube it seems that Sinnoh League Victors features the most legendary Pokemon, it's the last season in the D/P saga. So you were looking for the wrong thing. :P

I think it's when all the birds are fighting, or even if all the birds are close to each other. Lugia appeared without Lawrence catching all 3, since he never owned Articuno iirc. So your latter statement about the birds fighting was correct.

No, thats not the one i dont think. i do recognise some scenes (the flyover by the Kanto birds, and the space bit with Mew and co), but the one i remember had others in like Celebi, the sinnoh lake trio, and shaymin in it, and didnt really feature many of the other, non-legendary pokemon seen. The one i saw certainly used these scenes, but added other legendaries to the mix. it wasnt a fan creation either.
