gotta catch'em all
 
the show, as if anyone mature acutally watches it anymore, pokemon, has grown completely out of it's original shell. Things used to be less togetherness and more seriousness. Has this changed for better or worse? (In your opinion, of course)

well I;m not really sure I used to watch and I still do if their nothing else on(whch seems to happen alote x.x) you could say it has but then againyou could say it hasn't..........idk I would say it has I mean it's old as hell man this damn show was on when I was 6(which would be in 1998 old show right their) and I think even earlier than that........soo it has lasted a long time

I grew up on Pokemon so I'm Bias but I still enjoy it, and I like the positive message it gives kids.



It kinda distracts from the fact that the concept of pokemon is kid-friendly cock fighting.

well, even though i grew up on it, i'm slowly starting to find the anime annoying...but that's probably mostly contributed by the fact that they changed the VA's :(
i still enjoy some of the movies however, but the games are still awesome. they are (if not the anime) getting somewhat better :)

I loved it as a child, but don't watch it anymore. I still have the movies and the cards and the games though.

I used to watch it when I was younger but then each episode seemed to end the same and then it all got a bit confusing O.o

However, my mum used to be obsessed with it (Pikachu poster, Pikachu bag, Pikachu advent calendar :eek:, Pokemon computer games >.>)

I love Pokemon still!
Not the american version though, as it is more biased for kids and the voices really annoy me for some reason. ^^;

Though I watched the newest american Dimond & Pearl episode this morning, and it seemed very... Corny? I suppose that's how it si. But I still love it. The games too.

Wow Tsuyako. Your Mom is fawesome!
My mom has all those things but Totoro.
And doesn't Totoro look like a Munchlax?

The show used to be the shit...
now it's sucks...
there's way too many pokemon to even try to keep up with..
I stopped paying attention after gold and silver..

Nekozawa 05-31-2008 08:41 PM

Well, I personally enjoy the Japanese version better.
It's seemingly more violent than the edited American version.

Hmm. That's true, but what's the fun if you've already caught them all?
More Pokemon to catch is fun.
Also, since I'm a Pokemon hunter, it's fun to check off the list of ones I already have. Training them is even funner (not really a word but okay. o.o ), because I get to know that pokemon, it's attack power, strengthing it, comboing the attack power with gracefulness, and accesorizing it is always fun. I don't ever get bored. <3

I grew up on the Amercanization of Pokemon but! I prefer Japanese voices over all. I dont know why but in almost every anime with Amercan voices I can barely watch it because it just bugs me. But I love Pokemon. Just the original Pokemon, not the Diamond and Pearl and all that.
