Pokemon Discussion Thread - Red & Blue arc

How was the anime itself?
Kinda mid. It wasn't particularly bad, especially considering it IS a kids anime, but it was rather mediocre. Animation wasn't that great, the battles were alright at most with no one specific fight being outstanding. Characters were enjoyable enough but yet again, too childish in their writing. It all felt too slow paced with some episodes being pretty much skippable.
I would show this to a kid for sure but as an adult its boring to watch. So overall, 7.5/10 by kids show standards, very generous 6/10 for normal anime standards (it still sweeps any isekai slop any day)

One thing that made me give it above 5 is that is very much made me feel lightly happy throughout, as it was in fact, a rather cute anime with a lot of wholesome things, especially background stuff that
Honestly, I kind of agree. That said, I really enjoyed the Rayquaza vs the kids episode, and Meowscarada using Flower Trick on Zygarde was absolutely sick. I'm also super hyped for the timeskip! The designs are very big upgrade and they look more mature
 
What do you all think of the leaks leaning into PLZA having Mega Zygarde-Complete without requiring an item slot Mega Rayquaza-style?

I have not seen these leaks.
Sounds potent, but without lore or some other explanation, it's not that interesting.
If "leaks" are just text with no substance or certainty to their "credible source", then to me, they're just an "unknown binary" of "true" or "false", meaning it can't be known if they are true or false or not. & since being spoiled can ruin an experience, forgetting them often becomes an option.

Zygarde can go into its Mega-esque form with no item?
Without lore, nor even any basis it's true, there's not much to discuss, I'd say, harsh of me as that may be.

Also, as an enthusiast of General Discussion Threads, I'd like to use this opportunity to promote our Legends Z-A General Discussion Thread:

You may find that worthwhile.

A wish is granted for whoever reaches the A rank, make a guess what that wish is, it's really similar to the Mega Rayquaza incident of a fervent wish granting it the capability to Mega Evolve

I have the scans of course, but I can only pass them by Discord.

Interesting.

Atlanta Regional Pokemon VGC Day 1 has recently begun!
Round 3 begins soon, as of when this message is being posted!
How are you all this weekend?



 
He enjoys doing unorthodox things which make people suffer. You're either getting a masterfully played meta strategy, or a curveball team so wide it hits you on the back of the head
From what I've seen in his vids, he really advocates for diversity in strategy and trying out new things to adapt to shifting metas. Honestly, I find that pretty neat and makes it much more interesting to watch. Granted, Pokemon is not as samey with its meta as something like YuGiOh.

Man they are very cute together

I like how Meowscarada's mouth instead of a sideways 3 like most cat characters is a www. Dunno, it's funny in a cute way.
 
I’m so lonely
I'm here. I'm just often quiet on the weekends, & distracted.

I feel for you. You strive so much to get things done.... Even if you are sometimes abrasive or disagreeable with others, you are working, & there's a lot of what you do that could stand to get some support.

I hope to see you not in pain, but happy.
 
I do currently have plans to make the Gen 9 legendaries tier 2 by scaling, but that'll have to wait the physiology/P&A pages as I'd rather sort those out first.
 
Does anyone know where I can get the Japanese quotes from the SM games? I've only seen them in English.
 
Look up the name of the game in question in Japanese in YouTube then look over raw gameplay videos, unless you want something more specific.
