CROSSING THE LOVE TUNNEL
>Least favorite Ashnime companion >Say something you like about him/her
>>54510244>Max>The friendship he formed with the Pokemon were cute.
Another day, another volume of SM Pokespe.And Burnet is getting on Sun's case for defeating Masked Royal? Sun calling Lillie a Doll? Lmao.
Liko rape.
Why is it that everytime I see Hau again, he's just demanding for Food or is stuffing himself with it first things first?Also Lillie tagging along with Sun for the Mimikyu trial? Neat.>>54510397Calm the fuck down Roy.
>Shiny Rayquaza>Arboliva>Galarian Moltres>???>???>???Who are Lucius' other three pokemon, do you think? Normal pokemon? Gen9 normal, or other generation pokemon? Other legendaries? (The other two Galarian Birds, maybe?)
>>54510244Slutrenaher obsession for trAsh was retconned.
A bunch of Trial Captains + Hau coming together more pro-actively for the conflict of Ultra Beasts? Color me impressed.>>54510415The blue thing on the side seems like an exaggerated Lapras. Kanto-pandering might come around again sooner or later on one of the mons. But hey that would give Anne an excuse to get in on the action.For the other two it's a wildcard guess.
Damn, that Sun is obsessed with his savings. The choices...
End of Chapter 19. And I've got to say the yen objective of Sun got a lot more personal than expected.
What happened to Moot's Discord?
>>54510244>Goh>there isn't one good thing about him to say
Seeing Anabel in SM again is so weird. Especially weird to see her grown up too. Felt like a wasted opportunity that the two anabels didn't meet.
The whole Tapu plotline going down is pretty cool. But I am a sucker for those things in general. The anime did a good job on selling the deities.
Ash x Dawn
Ash's team for his return on PM2023 ->Pikachu>Incineroar>Pidgeot >Lokix>Ursaluna Bloodmoon>New Indigo Disk Pokemon
>>54510015Cuteris-sensei soonGyaru Cynthia gets put in place.
>>54510719>Ursaluna BloodmoonCannot wait to see it on Roy's team
>>54510719Does he defeat Geeta/Nemona? It would be cool to see Ash older and acting as an inspiration to the new characters. Maybe Captain Pikachu will want to be like Ash's, Lol.... I'm retarded. I'm a retard.
In one year Cynthia will be so fucking sorry
Using Pokemon as Bargaining chips is something I saw less and less over the years in the anime so it was a pleasant surprise to see Plumeria do just that. And there being two Cosmoem as opposed to taking care of one in the anime, with the fully evolved counterpart only showing up after the Lusamine arc>>54510729>Does he defeatOf course not. They don't take kindly to cheating manlets.As in regards to Nu-Moot's discord, he deleted it for the 2nd time because of too much cancer. For the new location and hotspot just see his profile because the last time I posted it here I got sent on a 3 day vacation and I not gonna risk that again.
>>54510397Kys Spinel.
If 16 year old Iris does make cameo appearance on Indigo Disk then I hope she will be as stacked as Zinnia considering all the other female Dragon Pokemon specialist has stacked figure. Plus Iris needs an upgrade considering how badly Nemona overshadows her. It would be better if Game-freak use Ground type Hatsune Miku to design teenage Iris. Also maybe Iris should have caught a Flygon instead of a Dragonite.
>>54510729Ash probably going to travel around the world to meet new opponent to battle so he will probably challenge Geeta and Nemona. I can totally see him taking the Paldea gym challenge just to fun and uses a complete new team of inexperienced weak pokemon as he did on other region.
>>54510772>>54510779Not gonna read your cringe shitfictions, Ashjeet.
>>54510719>Ash'she's retired and never coming back. Nice edgy pokemon choices by the way, you're clearly a chuuni edgelord. I bet you also fantasize about beating up your childhood bully in one shot
>>54510799kek.
>>54510779Geeta and Nemona don't accept challenges from weak, unintelligent, talentless trainers.
>>54510821Good thing Ash is the world champion and the only one who can satisfy Nemona's battle lust believably.
>>54510828>Lost to Misty with stocks involved.Consider your self-inserting headcanon discarded.
>>54510833You mean one of his weaker Pokemon lost to Misty while her ace jobbed to his ace.
>>54510828>Ash is the world championno wonder nemona stays in paldea and was excited to meet Roy. The rest of the world is so weak. She has to nurture the talent herself, starting in Paldea where people have talent.It also helps that Roy is cute, unlike that hick "world champion". Nemona certainly doesn't remember her or Geeta being invited to that event. Guess they were all scared?
>>54510838>Y-you meanA good trainer is supposed to take care of ALL their Pokemon. Showing negligence in that regard, especially after getting the title through cheating, is just pathetic. Keep coping, miserable attentionwhore. Your self-insert can't do shit against Misty at the end and that's a fact, not a opinion.
>>54510838Politoed is not Misty's starter. Ash lost because he is a bad trainer and a worse battler. If Ash was as smart as Liko or as passionate as Roy he would have won
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNAUcajcS58So why does Youkai Watch get away with so much while current Pokemon anime has to be Sanitized so heavily. Specially the doctor scene on 2:21.
>>54510848>was excited to meet RoyThat just normal excitement she shown toward everybody. Nemona's battle lust was never satisfied because she was stuck in Paldea.
>lost against misty>barely defeated Leon, and it took him 3 gimmicks + using a revive + Leon intentionally fighting poorly(he didn't use Libero, and he used his Gigantamax on Cinderace instead of his Charizard)>Nearly got his Pikachu stolen by the 3 weakest members of Team Rocket>Couldn't even defeat a single Hydreigon owned by a mad scientist, and needed to be saved by a Latias and Latios>is short>is ugly>is dumbWhy would anyone think Nemona would have the hots for this talentless hick?
>>54510873>shown toward everybodynope, the only other person she's ever been so excited over was the main character in the games, who became champion. This is proof Roy is as strong as the player characters of the games, unlike your OC who is weak and didn't interest Nemona
>>54510882>nope, the only other person she's ever been so excited over was the main character in the games,Who's not in the anime and Roy shown nothing for her to be excited about. Ash is the only character in the anime that can make Nemona go full "Waku Waku".
ITT: Ashjeet seething for 179 DAYS!!! GIVE IT UP FOR 179 DAYS SINCE THE FLOPKING ASH RETIRED FOR GOOD AND POKEANI WAS MADE GREAT AGAIN!!
>>54500866I wasn't really sold on the dub as much. Probably had to do with the fact that I watched every episode of the anime in various languages, because each episode was only available in different ones before I settled on the german dub because it was the more vulgar one before it got toned down.>>54510876>Why would anyone think Nemona would have the hots for this talentless hick?DenialSelf-insertingAutism
>>54510896>Who's not in the animeBut they are in spirit through Roy, who is incredibly talented and has caught Nemona's infatuation. I'm sorry that your OC wasn't strong enough to interest Nemona
>>54510900Hear, hear. Based Flareonpost.
>>54510903>But they are in spirit through RoyThere is nothing in Roy that make him like the player character, he is more like the friendly rival such as Hop & Hau.
>>54510911He literally made Nemona go full Waku Waku just like in the games, and she begged to meet him again in the future. Again, I'm sorry that your OC wasn't good enough for her. Maybe he should have graduated middle school, or trained his pokemon ever? He's pretty weak, y'know...
>>54510900>POKEANI WAS MADE GREAT AGAIN!!Pokeani has gotten even worst than before. I staring to feel that Liko and Roy are just mere vessel for a self inserted power fantasy about Friede.
Has Rhydon died yet?
>>54510917This lmao. Not sure what's so hard to accept about it.
>>54510919Proof? Oh right, you have none. Bye bye flop bozo
>>54510917>He literally made Nemona go full Waku WakuNope, Nemona would have outright challenge him to a fight like she did in the game if she was in Waku Waku mode. However Nemona's reaction was just normal and not fully waku waku at all.
>919>930>I-it gotten worst>Nemona w-would haveGentlemen, this is denial. Nemona digs Roy and there is no "power fantasy", end of the story.
>>54510924
>>54510930It's a difference the anime chose to go with. Roy is the only trainer that's been show to peak her interest.Unless, that is, you have any proof..? Oh, right, you have none. Bye bye flop bozo, your self insert is being forgotten more and more as time passes
>>54510940That's better than the view chart for Ash. I'm sorry that your self insert is so unpopular they had to retire him and start a brand new anime, but that's just how life is, flop bozo
>>54510939>there is no "power fantasy"Amethio rivalry is with Friede instead of two main character, Friede was the one who defeated Spicel and he going to reveal Armorouge in the next episode,. PM 2023 is just an Self inserted power fantasy about Friede.
>>54510940>youtubeYou realize this image you're posting is fanfiction, right? It's not even real metrics.
>>54510948It's not a self insert power fantasy. People just don't like to watch ugly losers, which is why Friede is so much more popular than Ash who flopped like a bozo
>>54510942>Roy is the only trainer that's been show to peak her interest.Not really since she didn't challenge him to a battle immediately. >>54510946>That's better than the view chart for Ash.Show it since another guy who post view chart for MPM and Horizon had shown that MPM had higher view.>>54510953Anipoke PR literally asking people to watch their episode on Youtube. Obviously Youtube view is important for them.
>>54510957>People just don't like to watch ugly losers,Wrong again, only self inserter don't watch them,However looking at reception for various anime has confirmed that people loves dumb and weird characters.
>>54510961>Not really since sheYes really, because she is interested in Roy and no one else. Unless you have proof otherwise..?>Show it since another guy who post view chart for MPM and Horizon had shown that MPM had higher view.Oh, do you have proof of this? Because so far, on all available metrics, Horizons is rating higher than Ash did...>Anipoke PR literally asking people to watch their episode on YoutubeThat doesn't address my point, flop bozo, and even then, do you have proofs?>>54510963>Wrong again, only self inserterOnly self inserters like ash~ Bye bye flop bozo~ The Volteccers are way cooler than your ugly self insert bait
>>54510946Not to mention that within THE SAME VIDEO he stole that incomplete chart from is highlighted that the show has gone up more frequently in the TV ratings, literally canceling out the "views" copium. He's literally beanpicking to continue ranting. The Ashjeet lost it big time.>>54510961>Not showing the metric of Journeys start>Specifically sinking his teeth into the Nostalgia dosed 11 episode finale without even posting the chart himselfGuess what retard? The finale to a Nostalgia is always gonna get high attention>asking people to watch their episode on YoutubeHow dumb and new are you to this shit? They ALWAYS did that since the start of their account before the new show even started in April, retard.
>>54510975Was it the same video he linked that another anon did a partial breakdown of, and said that the guy who made the video was actually saying how much better Horizons was doing?It would be funny. Because this implies that the ESL is so ESL he didn't understand any of the words the guy was saying, and just grabbed pretty pictures that he thinks supports his OC.
>>54510969>because she is interested in Roy and no one else.No proof of that since she only has normal interaction with Roy. >Oh, do you have proof of this?Do you? >do you have proofs?Its in the Anipoke PR : https://twitter.com/anipoke_PR/status/1702634615423541254>>54510969>The Volteccers are way blander and boring like Professor Sakuragi and Reiji. >>54510975>They ALWAYS did that since the start of their account before the new show even started in AprilIn other word, Youtube streaming is important for them.
>>54510984Yes, the same video lmao. Pokemon is doing fine without his self-insert, this is just going circles at this point.
>>54510988>No proofthat's all I needed to read, flop bozo~
>>54510975>the show has gone up more frequently in the TV ratings,It gets even lower rating, the only reason it sometimes appear in the ranking because all the better show (like Spy x Family or Youkai Watch) ended or on a hiatus.
>horizons has bad ratings>b-but it also only has good ratings b-because other shows are on haitus!which one is it flop bozo?
>Sakuragi and Renji slanderMaybe I'm just getting old, but I loved their chat about outdated media formats and the circumstantial feeling of tuning in to a love radio broadcast. I also loved Renji and Francoise's episode, Francoise's penchant for antiquated technology because of its backstory was so charming, that episode was one of my all time favorites.
>>54510988>Claims one anon posted a MPM chart>Refuses to post it himself and defends with: "D-do you?"If you brought it up, it's YOUR job to back it up faggot.>I-in other wordNothing in your "other" words, ESLsperm. They don't care HOW their show is watched. This is the most basic PR shit ever in regards to availability but you're too stubborn to see reason. How desperate, Ashjeet.
>>54510998>Is in the top 10 more often>"I-it doesn't count because muh Youkai or SxF"Bitch, it's more often in the top 10 regardless if your shitshows were running at the time or not, deal with it.
Hey, Flop bozo? Yeah I'm capitalizing the F from now on since I just noticed how fitting it is. Yeah, anyways, could you start posting some actual proof that Horizons is doing bad? I'm something of a troll myself, and I would love to sometimes shitpost in /padt/ along with you, but I prefer to troll when there is a shred of truth to my bullshit. Something to make people take what I say seriously, instead of immediately discrediting me as a dumbass schizo like how you're getting it right now.Because as it is now, nobody really cares what you have to say since they know it's all crybaby bullshit. They're just treating you as a metaphorical punching bag until the next episode airs.Why be this when you can be so much more? Surely there's SOMETHING you can find to discredit PM2023? I'll be right there by your side if you can find SOMETHING to latch onto.
I get the feeling Amethio is going to lose on all fronts. He's not even going to get Zuko'd, he'll be a nothing nobody just like the TRio
Seeing Advanced Generation again was a weird fever dream in a way because once I saw the filler episodes again, I could've sworn that I missed those episodes somehow in some way. Hoenn was probably also the least offending bunch by keeping the top 8 quo with the narrow rivarly it had.>>54511027He can't without it being too niche or not having an impact of some sort. Everything he copes on is either something he stole from others or begged for. One anon managed to gaslit him with the "view"-copium with some law bullshit when in reality they add no impact on the status or development of the production whatsoever. Just watch the Ashfaggot return in around one hour bullshitting his way through all sorts of copes or ESL goal evasions to insists only his boogeymans or metrics he leeched off from others matter due to him simply cannot accepting that Pokemon can live without his self-insert. Because he is disconnected from reality and thinks that by throwing tantrums here that it will go the way he wants with his self-insert. The Ashfaggot has truly gone insane.
>>54511027>>54511087Some shit about YT views even though it is not live views and just second viewers after the show has already aired on TV. If you really cared about watching it asap you would watch it live. Famon probably tracks second hand market sales
Chapter 25 is turning up the pacing for the Altar -> Ultrahole plotline with the box art mons. Lusamine of all the media iterations had in Pokespe probably the high of a lifetime in her UB objective with being surrounded by all kinds of Ultrabeasts. And them 10% Doggo is nice.>>54511130>Second hand Ashjeet coping and dilating on second hand market metricsAbsolutely not surprised. Whoever started the filename tradition for the OP had the right idea.
The Ultra Megalopolis was skipped in the anime correct? Well, I am glad they featured it in some way because that is still a pool of lore potential.As Moon would probably say it:"Kusaka did it for free"
It seem Naranja/Uva/Blueberry Academy Students to put accessory and extra layer of clothes on their school uniform as long as the base remain the same such as Ohara wearing Hoodie or Drayton wear coat & pelt. The anime can take advantage of this by adding similar skirt as Liko's school uniform to some female students on Naranja and Blueberry Academy to make their uniform look less trany.
>"less trany"Says the tsundere Alain-lover
>>54511260Maybe I misread his post, but I think he's got a point. The human fashion style in the new game is pretty tranny
>>54510799Temporarily, desu.Learn to read information properly, anon.You're embarrassing yourself.
When I say Ash you say DEAD!ASH!
>>54511298DEAD!
>>54511298>World Ash Ketchum Day trended harder than the episode that had Galarian MoltresIf anything, PM2023 seem even more dead.
>>54511292>Source: Trust me, d-d-desuCoping on the "temporarily" excuse for 3 months straight is unhealthy, Falseflagtard.
>>54511317>Proof: picrelAshfags are desperate liars.
>>54511292>Temporarilywrong
There are only three way a doormat can become popular -->Become a comic relief character. Example ; Bocchi (Bocchi The Rock)>Has a sad and tragic backstory. Example : Game Lillie>Has large rack and romantically involve with the protagonist. Example : Hinata Hyuga None of this apply to Liko.
>>54511317t. Faker who didn't even make a single post about World Ash Ketchum Day until he was reminded
>>54511298ASH!
>398Headcanon
>>54510857Misty is a winner. Not taking bullshit from cheaters and putting them in their places is what makes her based.
>54511398>Flop bozo trying to tell people what makes a character successfulMay as well take advice from a fat person on how to diet
The transition towards the USUM material is cool in both versions, ngl.
This Moon girl is extremely based. Bow Skills? Through the roof. And the UB conflict inside Ultra Metropolis is tight-packed. The Guzzlord invasion post the anime's conference was nice but felt wasted to only feature Guzzlords.
Lusamine free for all, 100% Zygarde. All in two chapter? Nice.
Truth is that a slice of life gag anime with battles featuring Ash, TRio and Serena will generated more hype than the plot of PM 2023 as long as the gags are actually funny, battles has Sakuga and Serena looks more attractive than all the girls.
>>54511740>Truth isThat your self-inserting headcanon reads like irredeemable garbage, Ashjeet.
>>54511755Dude , I don't even like Serena yet I am asking for a series with her can generate hype. You should have figured out that I have a good reason behind it. Think like a business man, not an Otaku.
>>54511774>Youare so deep in denial with your fanfictions that it's actually unreal. It's been done for over 5 months, coping with raw headcanons and projecting your Otaku status onto others isn't gonna change that your post is pure dogshit. Cope, Ash is done.
>>54511740>>54511774>Truth is that a slice of life gag anime with Serena, May and Lisia will generated more hype than the plot of PM 2023 as long as the gags are actually funny, battles has Sakuga and Serena looks more attractive than all the girls.There fixed.Now you actually have a good anime.
>>54511802Remove the trAsh and any plot in Pokemon gets an upgrade.
>>54511795>It's been done for over 5 monthsAnd the show keep getting more boring, blander and worst. >>54511806>Remove the trAsh and any plot in Pokemon gets an upgrade.PM2023 and Project Mew already proves you wrong.
>>54511740>AshIt's so weird how I immediately lose interest in a post when that name comes up. Something about Ash is just so bland and uninteresting that I can't bother to read or watch anything more.No wonder they retired him, nobody likes him.
>>54511810>And the show keep getting more [buzzwords]Wrong. But you're just in denial. I should've seen that coming from the self-inserting Ashfag.
>>54511818Well, Ash IS the most bland and uninteresting of all the big-name child cartoons. He has no personality, no quirks, no goals, no plot, nothing. Even Gohan was more popular
>>54511806Zing.
>>54511806Ash-less content is pretty good. Paldean Winds, Generations. Looking forward to the eventual Masters anime with Marnie and her pals like Serena as lead, and Ash nowhere to be found.
I'm actually shocked how many people didn't call out Roy for the latest episode for being a bit too reckless during the episode
Remember that one Wannabee rock guy Ryuki who blasted the instrumentals of Ikou-z all over the Kantonian gym episode? He actually gets to show multiple times. And I see more Necrozma content on the horizon.
>>54511847Roy thinks he's in a shounen but doesn't realize it's a shoujo. He deserved it.It's a good thing, too. It shows the world of Horizons isn't the easy mode casual playpen that the Ashnime was. If you fuck around, you will find out. And Roy found out.
I am actually more impressed with Plumeria here. Cosplaying as Moon for the boy Guzma is honest doujin material. Where the fuck are the Doujins with that idea? WHERE THE FUCK IS THE NTR DOUJINS!?!?>>54511847It was honestly a good buildup of his attitude across the last episodes to see the coin hit the ground that he's not ready yet. Opens up for a fair amount of training episodes.
>>54511859Yeah I like Roy but I'm find with this. Perfect Development for the kid since he knows how strong Legendary Pokemon can be and of course he'll know Rayquaza will be even stronger than that.I'm interested in how they handle this
>>54511847>>54511859Before HZ started I made jokes that Roy would LEEEEEEEEEROY Jenkins a Legendary with a Fuecoco, only to get fucked. Worked out as well as I expected. I just didn't expect Riko to be dragged along.Though, at least it seems like Riko's empathy will allow them to calm down Luciusmons so they have a alternate way to catch them beyond trying to battle them with seriously un-experienced Starters. Maybe when cat finally becomes waifu and croc becomes an opera singer though.On another note I am laughing whenever they ask>Did Rayquaza do this?Every time. Especially if you know the Weather Trio lore>Did Rayquaza cause this stormNo you idiot, read the entries before and after!
VIKAVOLT AIRSHIP VIKAVOLT AIRSHIP VIKAVOLT AIRSHIP VIKAVOLT AIRSHIP VIKAVOLT AIRSHIP VIKAVOLT AIRSHIPHoly fuck that was amazing. I might be rushing through the chapters at the pace I'm going but man, the latter half of the SM Pokespe is addictive.Gladion and Plumeria carries the shit. Oh yeah and there is Ultra Necrozma vs 100% Zygarde too I guess.
Cuteris-sensei turns up to her first day of class at Blueberry in her tiny formal short and tiny formal dress. The boy's swoon over their sensei-chan and make Cuteris their mascot.Cuteris-sensei (20) giving Riko remedials. All the time Riko can't keep her eyes away. From the dress, the hair, the legs, those lips. Sensei eventually notices and she starts playing with Riko's hair, touching her shoulder. Riko thinks it will be over soon but it just keeps escalating. She soon has her back on the desk, she tries to speak out- make sensei stop. This is a crime! She's just a minor! But instead she submits to sensei's touches.
>>54510637>Goh>Least favorite Ashnime companion>there aren't any good things about him to sayLolLmaoHe's the best ever since Dawn & Brock.
>>54511906Goh seems to be more popular than Tracey at least.
I know that Kusaka has this thing going on of teasing with the two protagonists like Red and Yellow (Which btw is a cute one) but damn it:Moon x Gladion is underratedAlso the idea of the Sun and the Moon putting the Blinding one back to the natural state of things if I got this one right was a good finishing bow. Also that "sister" comment at the end was highly dubious. Who could it be with the Piplup?I would give SM Pokespe a 6/10, the 2nd half is what sold me the rest of the run. I am gonna give SW a go next, since it's got fully released and even translated a while ago.>>54511901I would actually read a full novel of this, anon.
On another note, what if in Gen 10, Pokemon moved from 'family-friendly' primetime to a NichiAsa slot? Seems NichiAsa, strangely enough, is the slot where you can get away with a lot more-Fanservice (One Piece)-Fart Jokes (Precure)-Probably toilet jokes as well (Precure)-And literally everything that GG could get away with from cannibalism to borderline-rape
>>54510166WTF are they doing?
>>54511968They had to witness Croc having a flash mob orgy. Roy is probably proud of it, but would save himself the sight for his own sanity.
>>54511961one piece is rife with bottom-of-the-barrel, only-mouthbreathers-enjoy-it humor, no idea why you're pretending it's just fanservice(and its fanservice sucks too).Fart jokes and toilet jokes are also fucking garbage and it's a good thing they're not in. If you want that crap just keep watching american television and specialist french cartoons.
>>54511974>no idea why you're pretending it's just fanserviceAdmittedly my idea of OP is a little warped from the clips. Haven't watched a full episode since Paramount, and I just never bothered to pick it up again after the timeskip ended.
>>54510721>CuterisWho?
Gonna give the SWSH Pokespe a go tomorrow but seeing the games being a joke in characterization and Journeys shafting Galar I am gonna keep my expectations low.
https://twitter.com/Aspertia_Fire/status/1703876059001761835Should we tell them?
>>54511956You might be one of the few people who, even if you gave it a 6/10, had positive comments throughout the entire readthrough. The major problem is attached to the fact that SM and USUM are merged into a single arc and isn't even given the dignity of a full 40+ chapters. They also had to keep working on BW2 and get prepared to start SwSh when USUM starts hitting its climax, so there was little time left. As a result, shit hits the fan pacing-wise and many storybeats are mentioned throughout the 2nd half and are just rushed (like Lusamine's underwhelming presence in the story, or "Colress" giving the Beast Balls for the UBs, or how the UBs jobbing, or Ryuki existing solely to stall Gladion for no reason), which leaves much to be desired. Fortunately, SMUSUM hasn't been volumized yet, which means there's still a chance to get more chapters/pages to fix the pacing and tie up storybeats that the magazine release didn't accomplish. >Gonna give the SWSH Pokespe a go tomorrowSwSh has some characterisations you may be receptive to. >>54511865>WHERE THE FUCK IS THE NTR DOUJINS!?!?Kusaka...
Lei corrupted Koharu's mind...

>32 Days until THE CROC gets available>7 days for overseas importLife is pain :(
Do we think that sweet loving Anne is a dirty fucking SPY!
>>54512652The coincidences of her calls makes it a valid question indeed. Also makes for a nice plot twist
>>54510857Based
>>54512652NO. The Explores already said they went to the mine from doing research.
Gonna kill the time until more fun from Likonime with Pokespe Yellow. I wonder what will await me with Lance.
Will Liko and Roy visit Blueberry Academy?
Lance being the bad guy and unleashing hyper beams in search for something? Holy fuck?I expected various characters to be featured in different portrayals but that one is my favorite yet.>>54511872Seconded. Those events plus the endnote of an entrapped Friede is definitely a good gateway for character development to atleast exercise more caution in the future.
Public service announcement:Yellow is life, go vibe out.That is all.
Blaine makes my day with those disguises
I know the thread is called Pokémon Anime Discussion but why is every single one filled with Koharu and Ash discussions? Is this a meme by 1 dude talking to himself?Cause if i go to a other seasonal thread people will be talking about the new episode and not a random one from last season.
Holy crap, Red getting found and it immediately escalates right afterwards into a mass scale attack on the various towns?Kusaka knows how to let shit hit the fan
>>54513156I am not sure if you're referring to me but the last 3 threads had under 30 mentions of Koharu, I am killing the time until the next Horizons episode with my read throughs. As for the other character, it's mainly just one ESL dragging him up
The other Pokespefag talking about Moon and her bow skills made me think of Erika and her bow dexterity. Where exactly did Kusaka got his ideas for those instances? Kahili because of Golf playing or Gold with Billiard makes sense but a QRD on those instances?>>54511847As other anons already said, this was the harsh wake-up call for Roy when even Liko needs to yell twice to snap him back.
Seeing Red in action again after a good while with Yellow had a vigorating touch. Not even letting up on the writing of the first battles with him again.
>>54513215Erika's design screams "Tradional Nip" and Kyuudo fits with that
>More advantage gains from the Pokedex against OnixThis is something I love honestly. Aside from just reciting one of the games entries, actually capitalizing on the utility of the species is based in my books>>54513314I should've figured that one out. But Erika's nature threw me off.
I am a sucker for those team up moments between good guys and bad guys for an bigger evil and seeing the TR executive do just that is pretty sweet. Nice to see how one boy brought two sides together.
I was one of the stupid faggots who were surprised that Yellow is actually a girl. Seeing the chapter where it comes out makes me feel weird in hindsight.But Mewtwo shows up again, that distracts me well enough from the awkwardness
Just kill this entire godforsaken excuse for a general. Holy shit you guys are absolute retards.
Chewing through some Orange Island shenanigans until next friday for Horizons. The amount of variations for Pokemon like an entire island only containing pink Pokemon is soul for all the weirdness. Why did they toned it down?
>>54513179Actualy koha anon is kinda cute despite the obvious insanity.
>>54513594>obvious insanity??>>54513586They probably had the creative freedom which was caused by the time until Johto was finished for the adaption.
Croc is life
>Lacey : I have to ask, are you Ash's girlfriend?>Serena : Me? Ash's girlfriend? (Serena start gushing)>Ash : No way, we are just friend >(Serena kicks Ash's leg)>Ash : Ouch , why did you kick me? >Serena : Because you deserved it, BAKA This is type of interaction I prefer for Ash and Serena.
>>54513687Cringe.
>>54513690You mean the actual Amourshipping from XY series.
She
>>54513699>Y-you meanI meant your post, faggot. Not XY, just your cringefiction.
>>54513703WON
>>54513703LOST
>>54510858Cute
God I love the two.
>>54511052>He's not even going to get Zuko'd, he'll be a nothing nobody just like the TRioI'm feeling the same sadly. Dude is a nothing character is far. But maybe there's still time to save him. We'll see what he does next episode
>>54511847Last episode was perfect for the start of Roy's development. Plus characters with flaws are always good if they deliver in the end. Same with Liko's refusal to fight. Although in Liko's case her goal is super lame
What are some good movies? Only watched the first 3 as a kid and liked them.
>>54514019I'd say Movie 3 is the peak. I really loved Movie 9 (Pokemon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea) during my watchthrough. The AU movies (the last three that aren't the Mewtwo remake) are also worth checking out.
>>54513996I like the setup with the two so far. Roy in particular is neat in how he got his idea of steamrolling shattered.>>54514019Heroes and Jirachi maker are good ones. Do you prefer to watch them in dub or sub?
What the fuck did Roy say?
>>54514037>do you prefer to watch them in dub or sub?I'm not American, so I don't even know what the dub sounds like.
>>54514118And I am german so that cancels out. Probably about the same quality as the first movie. On the wayback archives there is an entire dump of season 1-5 english subbed including the movies.
>>54510244>May>Handsome Blaziken
>>54514084''You have it easy Roy. Since it means nothing to you.''
>>54514223>What the fuck did you said to me?
>>54500997I appreciate the ass, recapanon.
wheres the koha-anon?
>>54514318You mean me?
>>54514327yes!do you have a disc? would love to discuss the new season with ya sometime!
Since the other anons reading Pokespe covered GSC and DP, I am torn between whether read AG or BW next. I guess I could give Advanced generation or Black and White a rewatch at the same time to get a direct glimpse for comparison sake>>54514341I use the one nu-Moot reposted. Won't post it here since I got a 3 day vacation last time for doing so
God I love that hat.
>>54514376Brave Asagi no? who is ya there? i see no koha in sight.
Gen 3 it is after a coin toss. Only thing I know about that Pokespe is that Sapphire is apparently just one of Ruby's girls.
>I will save you from Roy, Liko San!!
>>54514683>Amethio>I can't stop seeing all those sandwiches...
Prego Goh
God I love JN and HZ.
>>54510397Dotbros..
Who's appearing first?
>>54514894Hydreigon
>>54514894Probably Cynthia, since she has more of a reason to show up. Since JN neglected to feature the Hisuian pokemon because of the Chuuni executive already getting his fanfic team set up, he didn't want anyone else to get Hisuian pokemon and be cooler than his OC, so he didn't allow any of them to appear in JN. Cynthia stands a decent chance of showing up in regards to ancient sinnoh pokemon.
>>54514956That's pretty reasonable.
>>54514894likely no one. No one from the Ashime will ever show up, it will all be new OC characters and pokemon characters that never showed up in Ashs anime. Expect all the SWSH gym leaders definitely
>>54512652Anne is not dirty. Stop looking at R 18. She is pure. Like Juliana
Cynthia is hot. Ash is not.
>>54515035Agreed, Exec-sama.
>>54515022>She is pureYou sure?
>>54515137Yes I am sure! All the Gen 9 leading ladies are pure too.Liko, Ohara, Juliana. Pure!
>>54515147Ok, ok.
Will Briar also try to get Liko's Pendant?
>>54515230Why are you asking such a question
>>54515238Because her goal is to find Terapagos which is now hanging on Liko's neck.
>>54515258It's more likely that she would try to help Liko than just steal the pendant.
>>54515258>>54515230Joy. Why is everyone trying to Lape Liko?And why does she let it happen?
I will never understand what went through their minds when they made the episodes for Johto. Pichu filler was nice but I forgot most of the episodes by the time each gym was reached. The only notable episodes were right before the league itself.>>54515238>Why are you asking such a questionAttentionwhoring. The F aggot got sick of raiding and now came crawling back asking his autistic shit again.>inb4 bitch reply from himIdc what your excuse is, retard. You're pathetic
Will Dakim also try to get Liko's Pendant?
I am rewatching the episode where Brock returned Vulpix back to Suzie, and even the line from Brock nailed it home that it doesn't feel like something he would own. It was basically with him for 141 episodes and most of time it was just there under Brock's ownership except for maybe one or two instances of using Flamethrower. The rest where it was only notable was with other trainers.
>>54515399I disagree. A vulpix is a great pokemon for Brock to own. They're a needy pokemon that would work best in the hands of someone knowledgeable and considerate like Brock. Not to mention they and their evolution Ninetales are lady magnets- something Brock desperately needed.They just never did anything with it because Brock is always getting shafted as a background piece. It was funny haha flamethrower bit and nothing more.
Handsome Roy
Why did Bonnie do it?
>>54515526Fighting type moves aren't very effective so it's ok
>>54515464Calm down, Liko
Friede x Orio needs more love
Rest in peace yellow rat
Since I've finished Journeys and MPM, and I'm back from my vacation caused by our good friend, here's the updated viewing guide:https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Nr3LMRBx-tJZtSwAbc4s4YTEgg6MVFnc/edit#gid=1304608200
>>54514956I mean out of the 2, Cynthia probably, but the likelihood of any of them appearing is close to nothing.
>>54516514Pretty much. Pokeani is trying to distance itself from the trAshime, so it's unlikely that characters who appeared previously for any significant duration will return.
Liko needs to shape up
>>54516900Her body can't handle too much action or she will literally crumble apart
>>54516127Thanks anon.
>>54515841What a captain.
>>54516978Kek
>>54516127Thanks for the view guide. That looks awesome. What's your next plan, Recapanon?
>>54516978I can already tell childbirth will b hard for Liko even with her fat ass
>>54517579The hips are about right for it tho?
>>54513586The most likely answer was >>54513609Orange Island was a good filler location in regards to what they can experiment with or the presentation of the Pokemon World. Various alternations of the species made it stand out to me.>>54517631Beats me. The ESLschizo is retarded, no surprise. He will deny what you said by twisting words or blaming some literal who boogeyman.
>>54517394I dunno. I'm surprised I made it through the whole anime to be honest. I'll still hang around, especially for Horizons. There's probably more stuff from Shudo's blog that's gone under the radar too.
>>54517705Sounds good to me. Shudo's Blog is an honestly good excursion for a lot of things of the early runtime. I am surprised that more and more got around over the years instead of one unceremonious translation dump.
A new day, a new arc. SWSHI am aware of the lackluster focus on Galar in the anime, with only a handful of characters getting multiple episodes in focus and a shitload of Galarmons getting mostly dumped near the 2nd late half of Journeys.Time to see how jarring and glaring the contrast actually is.
Wow, the loud Schilly memes weren't an exaggeration.Gonna keep track of the Galarmons that first appeared in each chapter and then map out the appearances in contrast to the anime at the end.
3 to 4 chapters in and I saw Wooloo way sooner. Neat
SLLUUURRPPPP
>>54517966Cute
I wonder how Xavier is doing these days, being spoken guilt-free of all charges after so long?
>>54518053>A-all to make time for Goh episodes.Rentfree. Consider your garbagepost discarded.
Honestly I don't need the anime to change Serena's personality because she already has those traits. All I need is -->Regrowing her hair back with better bangs>Change the chemistry between Ash and Serena>Make Serena a stronger battler & person.
>>54518088Reads like a chunni headcanon.
>>54518092Because it is one.
How to fix Serena:1) Don't be a sexist chuuni 2) Accept the fact Serena would one shot Ash's Pikachu(Ash went the entirety of BW without brock, this means Pikachu is unhealthy from eating nothing but junk food since Ash doesn't cook, so Fennekin beats it easily)3) Accept the fact Serena would become champion
>>54518188Absolutely based.
>>54518242Ash is property of Kenny.
>Twinleaf city festival>Kenny meet Conway for the first time>Obviously they hate each other guts and decide to compete on Twinleaf festival tournament to impress Dawn>Conway had a good plan as always but Kenny use power of love to beat him.>It will feel like Kenny had the biggest win of his life>Next scene shows depressed Kenny who lost to Ash's Infernape in the final round >Ash prepare to challenge Palmer again with Torterra. on an exhibition match and wins therefore finally giving Torterra a major win.
/padt/, do you like Starfield? I like Todd's games.
>>54518279Boring
>Another Twinleaf city festival being on the horizons>Kenny meets Conway for the first time>At first they get along quite fine and decide to compete on Twinleaf festival tournament for a testament of their capabilities>Upon the sight of Dawn, the feelings of mutual respect turned into a rivalry for the attention of the blue-haired coordinator. Curses were thrown around, the moral of the Pokemon amongst their teams rose to an all-time high.>After Kenny defeated a manlet, who was removed right afterwards from the spot with the relevation of ongoing Pokephilia allegations over his head, who Dawn looks down upon with raw disgust from the bottom of her heart, the two boys finally came around to face off each other.>Kenny managed to catch Conway off guard at the start with the unorthodox methods acquired through the various contests, leaving Conway to even out the match-up on a haste.>As the combat increase in its intensity, Dawn looks at the two for their willpower >By the two boys are entering the climax with their partners Empoleon and Slowking, the feelings of jealousy have transformed into a sense of content from their clash and giving way to all the tension that accumalated. Both sides order the final moves, with the water types closing in.>The next scene shows Conway holding the hand of Dawn as he hollers out his support to Kenny as he walks on the battlefield to face off Palmer>The scene pans out to the view of the town as the two Twinleaf trainers are starting their match.
>>54518339Now THIS is fucking Kino.
>>54518279>Ash>winno he wouldn't
>>54518367This lmao.
>>54518339Holy based. Somebody storyboard this good shit.
trAsh was retconned KEK!
The amount of Galarmons at the start is overwhelming as fuck. And lodu Schilly is wiggling its way into my soul.
CROC!!

>>54518842Kek nice.

>>54518410thx
When they coming back?
>>54518980Iris and Drayden have a solid chance. Alder too, since he hasn't gotten a lot of spotlight and Univa remakes will require his popularity to be boosted a bit.
>>54511906Based
>>54515559Cute friends.
>>54510415One of them is a direct Kantomon for sure. The other two marketing wise would be Unova or Hisuimon.
>>54514289So much pokeass is based
>>54512477Koharu will spoil whatever she pumps out.
>>54513215>Moon and her bow skillsGod that was so cool.
>>54518339Beautiful.
>>54514565>Two KoharusGoh is so lucky.
>>54514697
>>54519849Roy please...
I swear that there was some shuujichan art of Liko, Goh, Koharu and Anne in skirts. Can anyone help me out with that?
>>54519737Absolutely. The episode with the two Koharus was cute. Damn Goh getting so lucky.
>>54520016not Shuujichan, afaik, but I remember the art. Shuujichan is a shit artist who misappropriates Goh's most lovable traits into making him a generic blushing twink whore. Goh is faggy at times but he's so much more than that, he's bombastic, prideful, likes to gloat, likes to mess around, and will get so devoted to a single task that it'll consume him. He's not just a blushing cock receptacle for Ash, he's a fucking Pokemon Master who happens to be a homo at times. He is my favorite character and from now on I will defend him from the likes of Shuujichan by any means necessary. You can thank me when she's gone
>>54518022I heard he took up idol management for Serena, May and Lisia
>>54520016Pokemoa, not shuujichan. Shuujichan is not based, whereas Pokemoa captures the characters much better.
>>54520197Oh right I almost forgot.>>54520235Thanks anon.
>>54520226Based. Who else than this studious mastermind?
>>54520284Alain.

>>54520804Thx anon.
>>54518993>Alder too, since he hasn't gotten a lot of spotlight and Univa remakes will require his popularity to be boosted a bit.Unlikely. Japanese are serious about replacing voice actors. Which is why Iris is Champion in JN. They needed Unova representation, it just so happened there are two Champions in that region and her voice actor was willing to come back. Yea it's an asspull but more than likely even with remakes on his side, Iris will remain Champion. Strictly because "muh Japanese anime rules"

>>54520952Kek. Pokémon show about Pokémon. No surprises. >>54520962Roy please. Calm the fuck down.
Are we getting a Paldean Winds episode tomorrow?
Seggs~
>>54521165Nothing is safe from it's needs.
I'm gonna get going on the RS Pokespe soon.But man the early AG episodes were a good treat to get the Hoenn mood going.
>>54518188That works.
>>54514190>Handsome BlazikenWait what?
Is there an alternative anime franchise to Pokemon for me?look for>anime without Fairies>anti-pokemon fan base>anime with anti-pokemon designs>anti-Nintendo anime>anime whose target is the total opposite of pokemon.>anime without cute designs
>>54521776I remember seeing this same post few mouth ago.
>>54521801fairy type killed pokemon in 2013That's why I want an anime franchise that is anti-Pokemon, without anything fairy-like and that makes me feel like I'm watching an anime that a Pokémon fan would never watch.
>>54521776>>54521819This post is schizo nonsense but fairy type did basically permanently kill the vibe of the series.
New thread:>>54522032>>54522032>>54522032
>>54520838>could it be the one that followed Ash?!They're so fucking desperate lmfao
>>54521922Maybe for the anime, because your hack writers and executives only ever used them for girly shit like contests.
