I imagine the letter "Z" will be reserved for the title of the third Pokemon game that will inevitably be released a year after X and Y are so I can't envisage the villainous team being called Team Z. Perhaps something like "Team Origin", which is related to the Cartesian Co-Ordinate System...

Apologies for the tl;dr, in advance. Wow it's been ages since I logged on or followed any thing of the anime. Only came back as I've only just found out that B&W is concluding and Generation VI is in the works. Anyway with regards to the question at hand: after persisting bravely with the...

Pretty much this. I don't have the same passion for it that I used to but to hate it seems silly - it's never done anything terrible to me. After all the fact that I'm still posting on a pokemon anime forum online (no matter how infrequently) shows that I still have an interest in it.

I don't really want him to return to the main cast, however I at least would like an update at some point to see how he's getting on in his new career. His departure from the show was horribly done, even by the anime's usual standards.

I'm quite split on this. On one hand the only reason I vaguely follow the anime any more is because of Ash; as you can guess from my personal info I'm one of the old school fans from the early days of Kanto. Ash is the only constant from the start of the show (I don't include Team Rocket or...

Essentially this. Cinema tickets and receipts as a whole are decaying which is worrying film studios. More people are turning towards online streaming via the internet and online piracy for their entertainment. Pokemon just doesn't have the broad appeal to be a financial sucess in this current...

As many have pointed out it wasn't actually all about the movie itself. The storyline was good but it wasn't anything special. More it was the general atmosphere and hype surronding the whole thing at the time.

I don't understand the point you're trying to make. Pocket the money was meant to be a metaphor and not taken literally - obviously money directly from the deal will no go directly into the pocket of Nintendo, I imagine the setup is a bit more complicated than that, but they will of course...

Not sure how old you are but if you've seen the classic movie "Pulp Fiction" then you'll know that it's a famous quote from it (even though it's a quote initially taken from a bible passage in the Old Testament). Here's a youtube video...

More the fact that a lot of anime watchers are casual watchers who aren't as clued up on the entire laws and strategies of pokemon battles and so need reminding a lot. Not being disparaging or obviously saying this with any intended malice to the people on this board, but people who generally...

They could fit him in for a one or two episodes here or there if they really wanted to without disbanding the current group. I just think they won't even do that mainly because the writers seem to have adopted a policy now of going out of their way to try and remove any references at all to the...

It was brilliant. Just thinking about it again brings a smile to my face. Happy youthful days when "I was a kid" (Lol Iris). It great partly just because of the excitement and the hype back then. It was around 11 years ago when Pokemon had just taken off and became immensely popular. Screens...

Is it just me or does this poll make no sense?? The percentages add up to more than 100% :D Anyway I'm going to be boring and choose Charizard. Reasons being it was the first true powerhouse Ash owned (arguably still his most powerful pokemon) and first fully evolved starter. It's story at the...

No. My personal opinion is that nothing would actually change. You'd get some other noob trainer at the start who eventually does well in the championship tournament only to forget everything and revert back to the status of noob when he starts another region. I mean that's unless they change...

Hang on, it's not as simple or clear cut as you're trying to make out. You're trying to say just because the shows may have lost viewers (I'd really like to see evidence first tbh) that it's directly because the dubbing company made too many bad edits? And not perhaps because the original...
