Oh yeah, Pokemon Puzzle league has game-versions of 4Kids dub tracks and songs, I forgot about that @~@ Good find

Really? I never would have thought that was a 4Kids track. It sounds quite good for 4Kids.

Yeah, there a few nice ones that they made early in the series before they went to change-the-tune-every-2-seconds.

It does sound a little bit like the track but I'm not too sure, it sounds familiar but I think it's a different track. There is bits of Raid! from the Anime soundtrack in there too, which is the track what plays when Pikachu, etc are being chased by the giant Rhydon and that is a completely different track. I can't find it on Youtube as all the part 2 links for the first episode are missing and only the first 10 minutes are uploaded. I have the first episode and it starts just as Ash takes Misty's bike and the notes play down like a scale when Ash is riding away from the Spearow. The music plays in Princess vs Princess and starts just as Bulbasaur is getting licked by Lickitung. I'm not sure where else it plays.

I just watched parts of the first episode again and the track you have linked does play here but before the one I was looking for so is not the one I want. Thanks anyway.

EDIT: I found it. The following link has it starting from 6:03 and ends at 6:49..

Yeah, that's the video I looked at...it doesn't appear to be on the Puzzle league soundtrack, either, but if you want to make sure http://www.youtube.com/user/Skaz9000#grid/user/B55C6EF7D043CD03 It's a mixture of their BGM and their instrumental versions of songs

Urgh, listening through that reminds me how "samey" 4Kids BGM sounds @~@ 4Kids only ever released their movie soundtracks, so there won't be an offical version.

I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post but what does "Anime =/= Games" mean? I see that expression on many game and anime comparision posts but not sure what it means.

It means that the anime doesn't follow the same rules as the games. Such as how Pikachu's Thunderbolt has affected many ground types in the past or how Spikes does direct damage or how some Pokemon use moves that can't normally have.

Err who's that guy near the rapidash.


from Strategy Begins at Home!

As far as I know, he's just some dude with a Rapidash. Bulbapedia lists him only as "Rapidash's Trainer".

That's a Rapidash? Its' face looks different to other Rapidash.

Alright another question who voices each pokedex from each region?

Kanto Question

I am currently using a character of the day, Anthony, who appeared in the Punchy Pokemon episode. Just curious if anyone remembered what the name of the Kanto town he resided in was. If it was never canonically established I may make up a town.

Thanks. I'll guess it's a small town just north of Celadon City.

I don't know if this is the place to ask this question, but:

Is the Kanto Region mentioned by name in the original series (ie. Episodes 1-81) in either the Japanese or dub versions? I only ask becuase I know they didn't in the original Red/Blue/Green/Yellow game in either Japanese or English.

I don't think so. At the time, the league was always referred to as the Pokemon League and later the Indigo League but never the Kanto League.
I don't know about the Japanese version though.

In the original Gen I games Kanto's name was not revealed outside of Japan causing many fans to think it was the Indigo Region. Kanto was officially revealed as the name in Gen II.

In the anime due to this, it was referred as the Indigo League but possibly if it appears in the future in a potential filler saga they might refer to it as the Kanto League.

I got a question. I just decided to start watching the anime from scratch and googled the order needless to say I've hurt my brain trying to find which shorts/specials/movies go where, I think I've figured out the season order but I really had no idea there were this many episodes and sagas etc. I have searched for a detailed listing of what goes where and cant find it. NowI just know someones going to post a page I missed XD <3

There is also this.

oh thanks but i guess i was trying to ask where do the specials and movies fit into all those episodes O.o theres just so many or doesnt it matter?

Movies are already answered here.

As for the specials I dunno you can compare the dates aired in the Special with the Main and it will show which aired in order of time. But really since they don't really pertain to the main story it doesn't matter when you watch the Special Episodes.
