Sinnoh all the way.
Kanto, was funny but, battles are cheap.
Ash won his badges cheaply.
Sinnoh, they make him work hard for his Badges.
They made him lose to Roark, which was fine because, it shows that he has a long way to becoming a pokemon master. And he has to work hard to get it.
And if his Sinnoh team Evolve, it can match the power of the "original 4"
in which Hoenn's/BF team of Sceptile, Donphan, Glalie and Swellow can go toe-to-toe with them on power, speed and expierence.
I think the original wins hands down. The newer seasons (hoenn..battle-frontier..sinnoh) are absolutely horrific and need to be taken off the air. They are pathetic excuses for Pokemon.
I disagree. The original series has some cheap gym battles.
In Hoenn to Sinnoh they made Ash work for his gym badges.
And plus, Kanto has no character development at all.
Hoenn start to develop some reoccurring characters.
Now Sinnoh develops the reoccurring character by "mini-arcs"
in which The original, which has fillers. And the Johto saga was a Filler season.
So in my case Hoenn to Sinnoh gets my both.
The original series was the best. But personaly I think pokemon went downhill after 'Advanced Challenge'
I hate how everybody in 'Diamond and Pearl' are so gosh darn friendly. I remember when Team rocket was actualy a threat, When the gym leaders were evil, When Ash and Gary were Rivals!!
Seriosly! "Best friends till the end." !?
The second I heard that I stoped watching the show. Pokemon is definitely not the same!
No pokemon was better than ever.
Ash found a new rival in Paul.
In which a complete opposite of him, which makes it interesting.
In you watch Battle Dimension, you'll see the Sinnoh is far better than kanto.
Ash won cheaply against the gym leaders.
In sinnoh he needs to work his ass hard, or he'll lose the battle.
Team rocket a threat? Watch out for Team Galactic. Cyrus maniac face, make Giovanni looks friendly. Gym leaders evil? thats only Giovanni. And Giovanni didn't face Ash.
I sighed as I read through this thread. Honestly, some of you punks have no respect. I'm nearly positive that the people who are arguing that the Johto Journeys episodes and onwards are better than the Kanto and Orange Islands saga, well, they weren't actually there back in the day. Can you honestly tell me that you were one of the millions of people who would get up in the morning just to watch Ash fight the next Gym leader within Kanto? Are you able to tell me that you were there when everyone liked Pokémon and that you were there when you could discuss it in school with your friends without fear of getting slandered? No, you can't, because you were raised by the episodes where Ash gets trailed around by an eight year old nerd called Max and a Pokémon trainer who has no clue about what she's doing called May, and those two characters were meant to be the protagonists! When you punks think of Team Rocket, you think of two pathetic human beings and a Meowth who seem to pull the same stupid stunts over and over again. When the people that were there back in the day think of Ash's companions, we think of Brock, an actual comic relief character and we think of Misty, an actual Pokémon trainer. When you punks think of Ash Ketchum, you think of someone who has to Catch 'Em All, someone who never loses. When the people who are old school think of the beloved protagonist, we think of the guy who knew nothing about Pokémon and went out on his journey, just like we did in the games. And he lost every now and then, just like us. His Pokémon fainted, just like ours and that's what made him great. We could relate to him. Nowadays, he just kills everyone with his hacked Pikachu.
Anyone who says that the later episodes were better than the Kanto and the Orange Islands saga needs to get some respect for the people who know what they're talking about.
Okay. I understand your post. But Johto was thrash.
It was the worse saga ever made. It was fillers after fillers.
"Nowadays, he just kills everyone with his hacked Pikachu."
I disagree. Have you watch Hoenn to Dp/Battle Dimension?
Dude. Pikachu get his share of butt whooping.
I Actually LAUGHED At the old episodes. they are way funnier than those bad jokes on D/P or Battle Dimensions. People who say "D/P Rulez :p" Really need to watch the old episodes >.<
If your for laughs then the old episodes are for you.
But if you want Real Battles and Character development. then DP/Battle dimension is for you.
