Best Wishes ? is a reboot

Status
Not open for further replies.
The Advance Generation series and the Diamond and Pearl series didn't revamp the show in anyway since both of them had the same animation style.

The Best Wishes series does not continues were the Diamond and Pearl series ended at,the Best wishes series isn't at all related to the Diamond and Pearl series,besides the fact the Diamond and Pearl series is gone forever done with.

The Advance series also has diferent animation style of the Kanto, Orannge and in most of the Johto series.
And Best Wishes is as much related to Diamond and Pearl as the latter was to the Advance series. And don't forget that in the first episode of Best whishes they showed Ash's trophies and even the wooden Teddiursa model May gave to him.

But if you still "want" think that this is a reboot then I'mm ok with it. For me it's pretty obviously that this is a continuation.
 
Hi mate. I made this account just to nerd rage on you.

First off, this is not a reboot. There is also no such thing as a HALF reboot at all. How can you possibly half reboot a series? It just makes no sense. One thing that bugged me was when Ash did throw a Pokéball at that pink Pokémon before attacking. WHy did he do it? CAUSE IT'S ASH, he is a frickin retard and has always been!

There is nothing stating this is a reboot, there is no such things as half reboots either. The fact he still has his Pikachu, still knows IRON TAIL, VOLT TACKLE and all those moves he did learn before Best Wishes just proves enough that you are so wrong. Also Giovanni says that TR's old Pokémon won't be used. Why? Cause they are infiltrating a new area and need to use Unova region Pokémon to blend in.

I just think you are a hardcore fan of the anime and can't accept that some things have changed. I don't liek Ash's new look, i hate the eyes for god's sake! But this still does not make anything a reboot.


SO just drop it mate.

And neither was Hoenn to Kanto, Sinnoh to Kanto, etc, etc. They are continuations, they kept the main storyline intact, as in Ash wants to be a Pokemon Master and is on his quest to conquer gyms and pokemon leagues.

The Rocket Trio? Yes, they got competent. Does that make this a remake? Or half a remake? No. They decided to get better and all, but they still keep their past as terrible Rockets, and seriously, they're the same characters.

Also, what is a half reboot?
 
While I dont agree with the "reboot" idea, i DO believe that they are trying to make the series better than its predecessors

The Best Wishes series is not related to the Diamond and Pearl series in anyway,it also does not matter about Ash's trophies are that Teddiursa model in Ash's room that May gave him,the Best Wishes series is not a continuation to the Diamond and Pearl series ,and if you want to keep thinking that it really is then that is ok by me.

Rizefall.You don't need to be a jerk about your opinions and you need to drop it because you don't know what you are talking about,Pikachu having the same attacks does not mean the BW series is not a reboot,you can say that this series is not a reboot and that is your stupid opinions and Giovanni did say they couldn't used their old pokemon,which means they will only be able to used Unova pokemon for now on.If you don't like Ash's new look then don't watch the show then,it is a reboot deal with it.

Psyanic.Team Rocket are not the same characters like they were in the past,they are more smarter and more serious,you can tell that this series is a reboot wether you believe it are not,if that don't prove anything to you then i don't know what will.

The Best Wishes series is pretty much a reboot anybody can tell that it is, i don't know why it is hard for some to see that it is a reboot.

It really isn't a reboot, it's not like the series was wiped out meaning Ash gets all new Pokemon or the Pokemon series just gets a new person. Think of it as a Pokemon game, when you reboot the Pokemon game, what does it do?

Oh, yeah I agree with Rizefall 100%, especially on the topic "half reboot" there is no such thing.

Then let me ask you what a reboot is.

How is it not related? This is the same type of beginning of a new "Series" like when he went to the other regions. It happens here. IF you really want to belive that it's not related to DP. It's still part of the whole thing. About the moves it's still true. Why would Pikachu know the moves he did learn in the advanced generation.

And a reboot would indicate it is a reboot. Look at the first episode "I choose you" and compare it to this one. A reboot would have an episode that tells us why Ash goes on the journey. How he got Pikachu, how Pikachu knows all those moves, how Ash knows Prof.Oak, and tons of other things

-Oak mentioning how Unova is different to Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh. = Is this not obvious?
- Professor Oak mentions that Tracey has some advice for Ash on his next gym battle in the phonecall. = He would not just say Tracy like we know who he is (which we do) if we don't. Ash would have to wonder who Tracy is but he KNOWS who Tracy is.
- Team Rocket having other Pokémon = Cause they are infiltrating a new region and does not want to get attention cause they have foreign Pokémon of other regions.
- Things in his room = Also shows it is a continuation, how? Well how else did he get them? A reboot does not start in the middle of things, they never have or never will.

This season is just a homage to the original series. Look at the first few episodes and compare some events to the original. It is there and if you want real proof or just wanna read about best wishes just do it Bulbapedia.

There it clearly says:

The Best Wishes series is the fourth series of the Pokémon anime, following after the Diamond & Pearl series, and based on the events of the Generation V games. As with both the Advanced Generation and Diamond & Pearl series before it, the Best Wishes series begins with only Ash Ketchum, headed off to a new region with his Pikachu. Much like before, his previous female companion, Dawn, has left the series. Instead, Ash now travels through Unova with a girl by the name of Iris. Unlike the previous three series, with the exception of the Orange Archipelago saga, Brock does not join him in his journey in Unova. Instead, Ash now travels with one of the first Gym Leaders of Unova, Cilan. Don't tell me this info is not to be trusted just cause it is bulbapedia. Nothing you have said has any ground what so ever.

This series is not a reboot. A reboot would mean you want to REBOOT the series, make it different and want to make a new begginning with the concept intact. If we go into comics, we have the original "Amazing Spiderman" also there is a "Reboot" (yes they DO call it a reboot as it starts at the "beginning) Called "Ultimate Spiderman". Which has the same concept but story and everything FROM THE BEGINNING is totatlly different.

Now if we look at Pokémon. How is it even close to the original? In the original first episode Ash is watching Pokémon battle on TV, he overslept, misses his time to get his Pokémon Gary is a douche and he gets another Pokémon, which is Pikachu. At that time Pikachu does not listen to Ash, don't know many kinds of moves. What happens is they get attacked by a flock of spearows (might be beedrills i'm not sure) and the way Ash shows he cares for Pikachu. He jumps up and saves Ash by doing a thundershock that knows them all down.

That is how he got Pikachu, how it all started and how they got to be such good friends as they both show they like each other and would help one an other when stuff got rough. Does any of that or similar stuff happens in Best Wishes? Nope nada ZERo. I can assure you, most kids who watch Pokémon right now have not even seen the Original. IF a reboot would happen it would be said several times, advertised. They would explain who Ash is, who this Pikachu is who prof oak is. Why he is going to the region.

Do you get it? It's not a reboot. It's not a reboot in anyway, nothing even shows that it is a reboot. The desginers just choose to change some stuff and so did the writers aswell. They are testing something new and let them do it. If you are trolling.. Then god bless you. If not, but sorry you need to seek help. The fact that you still say it's a reboot, then a HALFREBOOT (wtf is a half reboot) and that everything you tell us has no ground WHAT SO EVER, clearly shows you don't know what you are talking about.

Why are you doing this? Cause you can't stand the new look, you can't stand that once more he starts off like he has done twice already and this time no Pokémon or characters from before that he will meet or travel with. The thing about this is, we don't know that yet. They have talked about Tracy, more might happen. Just admit it. You wanted Ash and Brock to jump into the next region with their old Pokémon. But it did not happen. What i think they are doing is, as far as this anime has gone they wanted to make it look new and a little more "Kiddy" so new kids and existing kids would feel like they are getting something fresh. Also all this talk about Umbreaon and Ash not knowing how to catch a Pokémon. They have all reasonable expinations.

IF you still think you are right, that this is a reboot. Tell me why it is, explain all this stuff that shows it's not a reboot and get some ground with your "arguments" (which right now only is "this is a reboot woop woop"). I'm really looking forward to it.

It is a reboot and you just don't know what you are talking about,there is no such thing as half a reboot and you are putting words in my mouth because i never said i didn't like the new look of the show,another thing you don't have any proof that the BW series is not a reboot and it don't matter about Professor Oak mentioning how different the Unova region is from Kanto,Johto,Hoenn and Sinnoh since non of them have nothing to do with wether the BW series is a reboot or not.

Also no matter what you say the Best Wishes series is not related to the Diamond and Pearl series,keep on thinking that it is because is not. I'm not trolling in anyway either but it looks like you are doing nothing but trolling,good luck to you.

he got his information on how the Black and White series is not a reboot from Bulbapedia, that is enough information to back him up.

You state that there is no such thing as a "half a reboot" but you have mentioned it in this thread several times:

October 22nd
Well no? it isn't a full reboot but it is half a reboot the plots are a lot fresher then they were back in 1999,but i do agree the basic formula is still the same no doubt about it.

They did made Team Rocket more of a threat then ever before and Ash personality is full of life once again since he isn't bland boring anymore,Iris and Cilan are great but they need more development.

stated on October 24th 2011:
The Best Wishes is only half of a reboot not a full one,but it is more of a fresher start then the Advance series ever was to start with.

I went to bulbapedia to also get information on the Black and White series there is nothing saying that the Best Wishes series is not a reboot,his information is not enough to back him up at all.

I did said it was half a reboot but what i meant by that is that it is not a full reboot,but it does count as a reboot.

I show you proof that shows it is a continuation. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL US WHY IT IS NOT? No you can't you just say it is. You have not done it to this day and you probably wont as you cant' you are just an arrogant person who can't take the fact that Pokémon has changed, and yes you did say half reboot so i'm not putting anything in your mouth. I've also given you proof in the whole post i did show you, PLEASE READ IT AGAIN! If i have no proof, THEN TELL ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY ARGUMENTS!


Please close this thread people, this as been discussed to death and IF he is not coming with arguments like me and other people are, what's the point in having this open? The only thing he types is "it's not a reboot" why is it not? He can't tell us.

He denies every proof that is given to him that most if not all people would see is real. He only answers on different things, not all of them. I mean why is this thread still up? If he could tell me why it is like he thinks which he has not and probably can't. Jesus. What a dork. AT least if you are gonna discuss something get some ground with your arguments, right now he only makes me laugh my ass off XD

Well, he dinies any proof we give to him, saying they don't count, and he still hasn't explaimed what a reboot is. I think talking to you isn't possible tough.

1/2 =/= 1
Half a cup of water is not a full cup of water. Just like how half a reboot isn't a reboot. Nor does it even exist.

There is a nice little article defining a reboot in terms of fiction here.

Or here's a specific:
With a reboot, the older continuity is largely discarded and replaced with a new canon.

The old canon was not discarded. Ash is still Ash, Pikachu is the same as ever, he's still 10, Pokemon are friends with humans, he still has his old Pokemon, he's getting all Gym Badges, etc.

This is in no way a reboot. Same show, same theme, different region. Sure, going to a new region we have new characters, but Ash is still there, Professor Oak is still kind of there, etc.

Yes, there are changes. No, that doesn't make it a reboot. Not at all. It is a continuation.

Reboot means that something start over again i hope you understand that.Rizefall you are the only person acting arrogant and you don't have any proof,you can't prove anything,stop trying to start arguments because the more you keep it up the more i laugh at you.

You guy have a right to your opinions, but the Best Wishes series is not a continuation to the Diamond and Pearl series,there no proof to wether this series is not a reboot.

Obviously, you didn't read that nice article I linked. I'll repeat my quote, just a little bit more of context:

A reboot differs from a prequel in that a prequel is generally consistent with the canon (previously established continuity) of the series. With a reboot, the older continuity is largely discarded and replaced with a new canon.

The episodes are listed altogether, as in Episode 655 of Pokemon officially starts the BW Series, with 654 being the last episode of DP.

First episode of BW, on the plane the Rocket Trio explicitly state
"Imagine running into the twerp like this."

How would they know him? Obviously, the history is consistent with the timeline and so, it follows the same timeline we have been seeing. There is even an anime timeline page on Bulbapedia...

I actually looked at Bulbapedia's "Timeline of events in the anime", it's really long now.
 
Just like Ash did with Hoenn and Sinnoh.

Dude please understand that to be a reboot, Ash shouldn't even exists. The fact that he is still the main character and his past appeared in the other series proofs that this is no reboot.

Even though episode 655 starts with the BW series and episode 654 is the final episode of the DP series does not mean the DP and BW series are the same which they are not.

The Best Wishes series have a much different redesign style and new animation then the AG and DP series had,the AG and DP sagas are the same were as the BW series is different animated wise and look at Ash he been resign differently then he was in the AG and DP series,that is enough proof right there.

I'm not trying to be mean to any of you just to let you guys know,you all have a right to your opinions.

I actually looked at Bulbapedia's "Timeline of events in the anime", it's really long now.

So are you saying that this is not the first reboot? Rather, there have been about 3 reboots so far? Hoenn/Sinnoh/Unova? Ash changed outfits about three times, in those regions. Those are reboots now? That makes no sense. If you actually read the quote, again, the reboot would have to throw everything canon out the window. No history, no pasts, it's a clean slate. And I mean it has to be a really clean slate.

I swear it's been repeated plenty of times, the reboot must introduce different characters. That's one major point. You're completely ignoring it. The goals are still the same. The plot is still the same.

Anime styles have nothing to do with it, really. That's just improving technology. Look at the first episodes, whenever there is a bright attack (for example, Thunderbolt), the rest of the screen turns dim. This also happens whenever the poke ball is thrown, whether a pokemon is being captured or released, the same results happen. They slowly improved this through the Orange Islands Saga to Johto, to eventually reach a new style in Hoenn, then so on. This does not mean it is a reboot, it's keeping up with the market. I think it would appease the audience more if they were up to standards, right?

Yes, the timeline is ridiculously long. I just use Ctrl + F then "Unova", enter. The length speaks for itself, really. But you can see the clear continuation, if you find it correctly.
