Oh my god
Trying to watch the diamond and pearl seasons. It's just awful. They all seem like mindless puppets with no emotions and yeah we get it friendship and being nice etc. etc.. They kind of throw that in your face. Dunno if I'll be able to stomach all of this.
|
Hence the reason I've stopped watching the anime.
They murdered it with sparkly Dawn. "We just gotta keep on truckin'!" What is that crap? ._.; And just...ew. The friendship thing... That's a bit of what Pokemon is about, but it's more about the actual show. Not 'everyone should always be sparkly beautiful friends'. |
I'm still waiting for the regular "AAAGGGHHH NOSTALGIA" people to pour in...
|
I have to beg to differ. I love the D/P Series much more than the Advanced Generation series. I just.. didn't really like May. Or Max. ~_~
I mean, yeah, they still kinda reuse the same stuff, but hey, that's the Pokemon Anime for you. It's got a classic formula, and that's what gives it its charm, to me. :p |
I just think that after 42749274 seasons everything gets old.
They try to add new stuff which miserably fails. Then they have the younger kids: "OMG PIPLUP IS AWSUM!! ...what's a Bulbasaur?" -___- |
I don't have issues with the characters. I don't mind Dawn, but I do mind the voice acting and script writing. Why isn't 4kids doing it anymore?

Ash sold his soul last season. The others soon followed. The result was a show with no real emotion, except the smiling and irritating friendship. With every episode killing your brain cells until you cry "NO more!!!"
In my opinion, the only good season was the first. After that, everything started getting old. The movies went downhill after the 4th. |

I'm half way through season 11 and hoping 12 is better if it has more Team Galactic episodes. In fact I might just skip the rest of the episodes except the gym battles.
|
If it's awful then don't watch it. There are better shows on anyway so you might as well watch those instead.

That's not what I was pointing out at all though. It's the fact that they're wasting their time whining about some kid's show (Oh look, I'm a hypocrite) when they could just not watch it. |
I don't think it is that bad. I just never watch it anymore just because I have a life outside of PC.

Anyways, I only watched the first season, about half the second season, then I drop in once in a while to see if the series has gotten back to the quality of the original. Maybe this show was never good, and I only liked it because I was a kid, but I still hate 3rd+ seasons. Like it has been said already though, this show IS intended for younger kids. As much as we would love to say we used to enjoy it, I don't think it was ever intended for our age group. |
Just because the show is aimed at kids doesn't mean it needs to be garbage. The first 8 seasons were for kids too, but the still were decent - acceptable.

I think it's fine, though sometimes it does seem a little to optimistic at times.
Some sad girl they meet: " Well the Bidoof are losing habitat blah blah" Ash: "WELL WE'RE GONNA GO SAVE THE BIDOOF!" I just prefered the first season cause of Misty's attitude. |

Pokemon is pretty much exactly the same as it always was. And it was always terrible. I still enjoy watching it sometimes because of all the cute Pokemon, but I'm not ashamed to admit that it is and always has been one of the worst cartoons on television.
The stories have always been terrible. The characters have always been one-dimensional and boring. The animation has always been laughable - you'd think that one of the world's most popular animes would have enough budget for some good animation, but no. Pokemon isn't one of those shows that started off good and then fell from grace. Pokemon started out bad, and is still bad. |

What's different from now and then? Pokemon has had the basic: Meet New Character. Blah blah blah. Team Rocket Interfere AHHHHHHHHHH WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN ;w; Bye character, you've changed me for the better ;-; I hope we meet again bb The only difference between now and then is the female protagonist and a new area. lol. |
