Do you think Pokemon are getting worse?
Can't say I've watched the anime ever since the second or third movie came out? The one people would line up for in order to get an exclusive card...a card that is probably burried somewhere in a box in my house =/ I liked it though, it was pretty light-hearted and had some good entertainment value for a kids' show.

Now you can watch Kakuna and Metapod (and any other new pokemon with the ability) have a HARDEN war....in 3D!

I agree with the battle system aspects.
Do you know how « Snuggly Bunny » terrible it is trying to play R/B/Y and G/S/C after I've played Platinum? Highly overpowered pokemon, slow as hell and obnoxious traveling, and a terrible battle system overall make it a pain in the « Mr.Gourmet's hat ».
I like pokemon more as it goes on, because the battle dynamics become more finely toned and they fix problems every generation.
I think I remember Scizor in G/S/C being almost impossible to beat without a fire type. fsdljdlskfd.
Also, I love Munna. Or whatever the « Snuggly Bunny » that thing is called. It's a like a cute piggybank. >__>

First I want to say I feel that because Game Freak is running out of ideas the Pokemon they create are getting better, because they now have to think about how to draw these critters. Heck, I'd argue Generation 1 had the worst designs. There are a « Soft and Fluffy » of Generation 1 Pokemon that were created with a stick a new body part on it mentality. Granted, there are still Pokemon like that, but they are less and less.
Second, I want to say that the anime has always been awful. It has gotten worse over time, given, but it wasn't good to begin with. The show had always been a lame cash in for the games, and the only real reason we think it was good at one point it because we have nostalgia for it, like the whole Generation 1 vs. every-other-generation-of-starters thing.
That's my two cents.

I watched one of the old eps a few days ago. ...Everything is like a masterpiece when you're 7. o_oSmash Genesis wrote: Second, I want to say that the anime has always been awful.

Plus it might be due to the limited graphics, but some of the rby pokemon are pretty QUALITY-packed
my posts sound sort of I H8 POKEMONZ-ish xD;;;
Hey, I still enjoy watching the old episodes of Pokemon, when they are on TV. Is it high entertainment? Hell no. But it's still pretty fun to watch or have on in the background, more for the camp aspect than an "OMG THIS IS AWESOME POCKET MONSTERS" thing. I love Team Rocket. The new episodes just aren't as funny.
Honestly, I love the anime. I think it's fine. Is it better than the original? No. But whatever is? Nostalgia is always a key part in our view towards things.
However, I don't like the Kanto and/or Johto series that much, due to Misty. Hoenn wasn't that great either, because I wasn't too fond of May. But at least she wasn't an entire « Baaaa *glomp* » case like Misty. Although, Misty can be nice and is pretty cool by herself, Ash brings out the total « Baaaa *glomp* » in her and vice versa. May never really seemed to care about Ash. Which was fine, but boring. I love Dawn. She's girly, but she has a good amount of knowing when to hit Ash when he acts stupid, while not being a total « Baaaa *glomp* » like Misty was. And she doesn't completely ignore Ash either. I like that. I'm going to really miss her when she leaves. </3

But honestly, it's not like he didn't have much of a choice. He had an injured/sick pokemon on his hands and was a total newbie of a trainer. As a Gym Leader and experienced trainer, Misty should understand that. :/Nurse Fin wrote:The reason why Misty was with Ash in the first place was because he stole her bike then totally trashed it, and she's trying to get him to pay her back. So I think she can be mean to him if she wants to
Besides, Misty would often hit/abuse Ash regularly for so little things that it just got old fast.
Some of the official art was pretty bad too. There was a thread on /v/ about it where someone posted all the prerelease pics of all 150 pokemon, and they didn't look a lot like their hgss counterparts. xD; I have one or two of the pics on my compy, I'll look for them :3
And you can tell from the pics that psyduck was supposed to be the "mascot" pokemon instead of Pikachu.
Green Exeggutor [sp?] looks all "HURP DURP IMA EGG"
Wigglytuff looks insane.
Vileplume is... wow.
Mew looks like a deformed fetus... thing.
I-I'm not sure whether to hate or love you.
