do you want to see old episodes of pokemon back on tv
 
post in this thread if you would like to see old episodes of pokemon from back in kanto and johto and hoenn.

I want to see old episodes, because I basically missed every kanto episode except ones on my video tapes, and I would like to see Ash's batlles against Falkner, and Bugsy.

Why don't you just buy the DVDs?

pokemonlover493 July 12th, 2009 5:44 PM

there's a couple of reasons for that.
1. they don't sell early johto dvd's
2. too expensive on the internet
3. they don't sell much dvd's at the best buy near my area. Actually, they only had the orange islands dvd set, so of course I bought it.

Vernikova July 12th, 2009 5:58 PM

Really? I understand your 1st reason but I've never seen a Pokémon box set go past $30 and a single disc for $28.

I doubt they'll re-air old episodes again. Maybe on Boomerang but not on Cartoon Network.

I loved watching the old episodes before school! I miss that...

But we have DvD's and Youtube now =D

kkaitlinn94 July 12th, 2009 6:09 PM

YESSS! I loved Kanto, Orange Islands, and Johto. And I like any episode where Ash has his old voice because the new one annoys the crap out of me!
They have boxed sets of Kanto episodes at Borders (and Barnes and Noble, Best Buy, Sam's...), but I'm trying to save my money for Nintendo World in New York next week :) I have an Orange Island DVD I got on ebay a while back for a pretty low price, so I watch that pretty often :) And I have a boxed set of Pokemon Advanced Vol 1 I got before Hurricane Katrina so I would have something to watch on my DVD player if the power went out

Samme! July 12th, 2009 7:33 PM

Absolutely Yes!!! They aired old pokemon episodes on CN i think last year but they only went up to the 3rd gym and then stopped and it was only Johto and Hoenn.. but i think if they do a lot of people will watch them.

beserker300 July 12th, 2009 7:51 PM

They're all over Youtube and torrent. They're quite lulzworthy (mostly silly Ash/Misty stuff), but theres no reason to watch them more than once. I saw the entire Kanto series quite recently. The Indigo Plateau part was so underwhelming. They didn't even show all the battles and his battle with Richie only lasted 10 minutes.

TheHolyPeep July 12th, 2009 8:32 PM

I honestly missed most of Johto, so that would sure be nice.

Plus, I honestly miss the early days of pokemon. Ash wasn't quite so overdone then.

Inferno1 July 12th, 2009 8:44 PM

The do have dvds of jhoto lots they have whole wallets there called pokemon super wallet season .. currently they have 9 which is all the way up to the last episode of the battle frontire they have not started selling Sinnoh in because that is airing now but that might just be the awesome australia

Gligar09 July 12th, 2009 8:52 PM

I'd rather wait till the series ends. Or they could do a big marathon or something.

nickstr July 13th, 2009 10:25 AM

Do I want to see reruns of Pokemon episodes on TV again? YES YES YES YES! In so many ways the Diamond and Pearl series cannot hold a candle to the Kanto through Johto episodes. This was also when the show was at the height of its popularity worldwide and more than enough people like these episodes so that makes it practicle to air them again. But unfortunately, the person who is heading Cartoon Network hates cartoons/animation so they are making really idiotic decisions which could eventually make the channel go belly up so it could not happen in the near future since we are talking about a network which essentially does not care about its viewers or heritage anymore.

Jorah July 13th, 2009 10:28 AM

No, I've got Indigo League and Advanced on DVD, I don't need to watch repeats XD I would rather watch new episodes on TV, although I will watch repeats of the new series when it starts looping around.

.:Kanto:. July 13th, 2009 11:14 PM

I couldn't wait, so I just bought the box sets of Seasons 1, 2 and 4, yeah, I know I forgot 3.. but I'm getting there! *finds an extra $50 in shell* ^^

derozio July 13th, 2009 11:44 PM

Man! I think I got OVER-LUCKY here! CN have repeated pokemon (from the start!) nearly 4-5 times. They have repeated it so much that it got boring.(Actually they repeat shows untill new season begins to air. DP has not aired here till now...:()

Alice July 14th, 2009 12:02 AM

Yes. I would REALLY like to see them again.

tonyar109 July 14th, 2009 1:22 AM

I loved watching the old episodes all the time, and i have bought many DVDs.

weird were I live at my target they sell every pokemon movie and every episode

I'd like all the old shows (not just Pokemon) to be back on TV But unfortunetely new shows come out with newer generations of people

dont the show old pkmn episodes on boomerang?

Cloche July 15th, 2009 4:35 PM

... I really don't feel like it's necessary. You can get them on DVD and VHS (If you're a nerd like me, and you haven't updated your Pokemon collection to the DVD's XD)

The Red Bandit July 15th, 2009 4:47 PM

Yes because newer on there is dawn and ashse voice is annoying and last they are s retarted in the old episodes

pokemonlover493 July 15th, 2009 5:05 PM

I am trying to get my mother to take me to target. But she has no money.Also I was at target a couple months ago they didn't have any. I got Pokemon Platinum however.
They don't show it on boomerang anymore. It was too late getting digital cable.

You can always watch the episodes of Pokemon online, like youtube and myspace (thats what I use to do)

Sweet Smoochum July 17th, 2009 5:50 PM

Yes, I would love to. For those who don't. Hello? You CAN change the channel, ya know. I would like to see the old episodes on tv again. I still find them funnier than the new ones. Also, I missed a lot of them when the cable was turned off around Christmas time many years ago. I missed so much of Johto. I would like to see Kanto, Orange Islands, and Johto on tv again. Maybe some episodes of Hoenn as well. I've missed so many. No stores in the area sell them on vhs or dvd.

Saltare. July 17th, 2009 6:47 PM

I bounced off the walls when I saw Pokemon 4ever! playing on CN today.

I might email CN asking them to bring back the old episodes. Or make a petition and email it to them.

salmence33 July 17th, 2009 6:56 PM

yeah
I would really like to see movie 5 again

Taemin July 17th, 2009 6:57 PM

They actually had the old episodes on TV until about a year or so ago. o.o

I remember seeing really old Kanto episodes on, all the way to Johto. Johto is as far as they went, and I'm not totally sure exactly when they stopped playing them. I know they were on from 05-07 though, at least.

They could still be airing, for all I know. xD;

Saltare. July 17th, 2009 7:04 PM

They aren't airing anymore =[

Sweet Smoochum July 17th, 2009 9:46 PM

They should. The old episodes were just awesome. (I just watched one on youtube.) We should make a petition and ask Cartoon Network to air the old episodes.

Graceful July 18th, 2009 10:00 AM

I miss Kanto and Don't have enough money to buy them. Anyway they don't sell Pokemon DVD's where I live anyway I'm not old enough to go on ebay anyway!

Mew~ July 18th, 2009 11:50 AM

im preety sure they put the old episodes on sky1(uk) might ave stopped by now the last time i watched it on there was a few months ago
