    Has any one seen this yet on toonami, it was quite interesting.

    If you saw it what do you think about it.

    Im happy that this seems to be the first pokemon tv show that ash is not the main character.

    As for you who have not seen it if you do not want to know about it untill youve seen it do not read below this line
    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    The show is about a trainer named Jimmy. It starts off showing him battle a trainer who trash talks about his hitmonlee and winds up losing to Jimmy's Typholsion. After that secne it shows him walking looking at something that looks like a pokegear thing from pokemon gold and silver and crystal, he wals to the pokemon center where he gets his pokemon healed. He goes out side and is talking to his typloshion untill he hears a familliar sound so he walks in and sees a girl talking on a picture phone *Which was featured in the first episode of the first season of pokemon in the episode I choose you pikachu*. The guy on the phone notices Jimmy and states "Hey look what the kingler brought in". When the girl turns around she gets up and calls "Jimmy!" *I cant remeber much from that ecept him blushing then the guy on the phone says watch out with her shes my girlfriend or well soon to be, Jimmy replies what are you talking about and he says oh! common i know you like her* Err.. after that long explanation they wind up sitting on a bench drinking what seems to be soda. They talk and the girl *Marina* Asks if Jimmy missed her. He responded a little *or as so i remeber* And she asks if he liked her he asked can we change the subject. they talked about training. then they battled and a thunderstorm ccame thier pokemon ran, they followed Team rocket was stealing rioku*Not james and jesse* Jimmy didnt want them they are about the start a battle, then in big red letters To Be Continued.
     
    I saw it... but once I started watching it I remembered that I had seen in Japanese already. (At least the Legend of Thunder episodes anyhoo... nothing more then that.)
    Anyhoo, the english version wasn't as good as I thought it'd be.
    It wasn't horrible, and I'll still watch it simply because its Pokemon, but I hated the fact that they changed Kenta's name to Jimmy.
    And Marina's voice is sort of annoying, but ah well...
    Kenta's voice was okay... but it took some getting use to.
    Over all, I'll get use to it, and I'll probably end up liking it okay.
     
    Yeah, um, it was okay. The dialouge was a little... bleh. I dunno, I just think that some of the lines were a little on the lame side. Sometimes I think that the script writers try to make the dialogue cool-sounding, but it just ends up sounding dumb. =P

    Plus, Marina just... doesn't sound like Marina. She's like too girly and stuff. She acts as if the only thing important to her is dancing and looking pretty. -.- I am 99.999% sure that she is also a very competent battler and understands the importance of good pokemon battling skills.

    Lastly, there's the woman-Bashou. >.> I think we all know the consensus feeling about her/him.

    Other than those three objections, and the opening song (*sigh*), I enjoyed it. It was a refreshing change to see the dynamics of someone else's journey. What I'm reeeally looking forward to though are the Misty episodes coming up soon. ^-^
     
    We do have an episode discussion for these things, you know.

    I'll post my review when I've seen all three but yep. Headdesk.
