I disagree with this. The Western Staff does, too, especially with the whole "After AG" thing. Check the Advanced Battle theme, it's pretty telling.

Watch the entire series first , not just a opening theme!!!

No, see, he does explain stuff- recent events, specifically. And he doesn't have to explain the entire history becaaaaaause:
He only say , Ash going on a new adventure.
That's all.
Not much to go on when new Kid see Ash suddenly bring a Infernape or Snorlax out of nowhere and if he has such powerful pokemon then why doesn't he use that.
Or when old friend like Brock , Misty , Gary suddenly mention and appear.


Nope, it's a difference in culture. You'd be surprised that Shin-Chan isn't aimed entirely at adults in Japan. If you look, a lot of its merchandising is for kids.
Lets see ,
A father who want to leave Porn mag as inheritance for his son , A mother who hide money for a Boob implant , An alcoholic Aunt who lost her Boyfriend in Africa, Her Father who encourage her to take Drugs , A female classmate who's abused at home by her father , Her mother who tries to run away hoping some human-trafficar will kidnap her to sell her in a Sex-club.
Do you want me to continue ? And this are suitable for Kids.

That doesn't make it less accurate. Just because a show appeals to someone else doesn't mean it can't be compared to mostly different or unrelated shows, and Gintama's formula can be considered parallel to Pokemon, if jokes and characters with actual backstory are compared to badges and Pokemon. Plus the show makes several references to previous episodes and seasons. It's not much different. Because we're not comparing the shows themselves, we're comparing something the shows do.
Actually it does !
Different Anime is handled differently depending on Story , Genre and target audience !
Ya , You can say that ''The Simpson'' & ''Crayon Shin-chan'' are similar Show !
That I would agree .
But , Pokemon is not the same as them.
Pokemon is a game based Kids Anime that focused on a Boys journey to become Pokemon master.
The Simpsons is a family show that focus on daily life of an average American family and often jock about various factor of America and World.
Both shows has different story , genre and target audience!
Only reason you bend on both show being the same its because The Simpsons can go endlessly.
Same goes with Gintama !
Gintama focus on an Alien ruled World where the Protagonist does odd Job to pay rent.
Its not same as Pokemon.
Ash help people , Sure , But he isn't traveling to do odd job for people.
He traveling to become a Pokemon Master by winning the League ! There is no similarity between both series.
Unless you claim Gintama trying win a Tournament by collecting some badge only to lose and then start all over again to collect the same thing from another country only to lose again in every season.
FYI : Unpaid rent is running rag , Not a repeated circle
Ya , If Ash does become a Pokemon master and join a "Detective Agency'' to help people in need then it will be parallel to Gintama.
Only then Pokemon can go endlessly.
However , The Current Formula for Pokemon is not designed to go endless ! Because it just a repeated circle.

Also, in terms of them being not kids shows...eheh. Gintama would be quick to disagree. Or agree. Probably both. And the Simpsons is pretty all-encompassing. It's a silly family comedy that's not really for adults specifically.
But ''The Simpsons'' still not suitable for Kids.
The main reason it can do any violent , Bloody and sex related theme because it mainly aimed toward adult.
Specially James's fake Boob & few Gunshot is enough to ban a Pokemon episode .

Furthermore , Pokemon is more parallel to Naruto then Gintama.
Since Naruto's goal to become a Hokage and defeat Sasuke can be parallel to Ash's desire to become a Pokemon Master and beat Gary.
As you know , Naruto ended .
Also , Beyblade Metal fusion would be even more parallel to Pokemon during the Battle Bladder arc where the Main characters travel around the Country to collect Bey-point to qualify for Battle Bladder Tournament.

Another big difference , The Character of "The Simpsons" isn't trying to achieve any goal or dream So People enjoy the ''Daily Slice of Life''.
Pokemon start with Ash declaring his Goal therefore people attention is toward Ash achieving his goal.
Truth is , Pokemon & The Simpsons are 2 different show watch by different group of people for different reason ! They are not the same.
Unless you claim Pokemon can do this --

I get all my pokémon news from PC. :x welp, not the updated kind here. I'm not even sure I know what "Pokefan" is haha

I understand a Pokefan, that's short for Pokemon fan you know. As for Pokemon news, I tend to look at so many places on the internet for that, with big ones being Bulbagarden and Serebii.

I wish writer stop worrying about Ash being "Too OP'' because it will not do any harm in the series.
Specially since Pokemon is a Kids Anime!
For example : Keita from Youkai Watch would be the most powerful Kid in Japan with the power to control every Youkai in the world !But "Youkai Watch" still has better rating and DVD Sales Then Pokemon XY Series .
After all , I watch the Yokai Watch movie where he summon an army of Yokai to fight for him!
So I don't get why Writer are so dam worried about Ash being "TOO OP" if he megevolve Pokemon.
