I hope the Ash/Serena/Mallow/Brock rumor is true.

Then Ash and Serena can spawn Chicken later.

Also what harm would keeping Serena do? All they would have to do is make a small handful of showcase eps again, that won't interfere or contradict any of S/M's plots or arcs.

>>28310368
What harm would keeping Brock for 13 years do?
Serena is fleshed out as character there is nothing for her to do, except some shipbait now.
Also, Tripokalon is made to be short and fast. Stretching 3 keys and one tournament for 3 years won't work.

Zygarde cores playing a role in S/M, likely means the XY saga will be connected to it in some form.

>>28310491
Serena isn't going to Alola. Give up.

>>28310485
>>28310496
Idols are still popular in Japan and Serena's character/ship has attracted the fanbase. No new female companion will gather as much hype as Serena did for that reason.

From the sounds of things these games don't have any new big sidequest either, so showcases returning would be like how Contests were in both AG and DP.

>>28310247
>Lillie is a jellyfish,
That would be neat. But likely you will catch her and I doubt gf will allow to let you put your friend into a ball, make her fight, breed her with some ditto and then release her. Though there might be more than one.

Seems a bit dumb from Ash not to keep any physically large/powerful Pokemon on him. Guess the writers didn't want him to be OP but is coming across as a bit forced to me as I watch through the Johto saga atm.

>>28310974
Dawn already came back.

>>28311015
Pretty nice.
Wonder if the stars will sparkle in the actual logo.

>>28311026
That's not Dawn.

>>28311029
Ash only does what the dumb writers make him.

>>28311029
How else are they going to shill the new generation mons and make Ash relatable to the new batch of japanese 10yo viewers?

>>28311003
Who made ORAS?

>>28311029
Johto really felt like the writers suddenly had an "oh shit" realization when they ran out of space on Ash's "still-mostly-Kantomons" team. All those releases to free up space felt incredibly forced.

But anon I'm trying to help you. I like serena, I like amour. but if XY has one underlining flaw it's that it's a pokemon anime and 3 things remain constant in the pokemon anime

>pikachu
>Ash loses the league
>new companions per region.

you're in denial and that's not healthy, all you're doing is giving shitposters ammo for when serena's departure is confirmed.

>>28312194
Alan saving Kalos, lemon's departure, Serena's departure with Yashio, and Ash sending his mons to Oak, except for Pikachu.

Is this your first Pokemon series?

>>28312233
Not the anon you are talking to, but I actually believed for a couple of episodes they will be doing something different. It's a disappointing and frustrating sensation.

May wasn't electrocuted either, but May and Dawn both got their bikes roasted. Only Iris and Bonnie got directly shocked while Serena had none of that happen to her.

Reminder that Cynthia appeared in BW games, but Dawn was replaced, despite being really popular character with co-star status.
Sina and Dexio in SM don't prove anything.

Usual baiting as always.

so I stopped watching when Ash lost the league as we all know what would happen next just in time for the new games. but....just out of curiosity. how many of you are still watching? how many of you will drop it once serena leaves? how many of you will watch Sun and Moon?

You fools. Either Serena stays or...

we make a new ship

>>28313166
I'm going to stop regularly at the end of XY, especially if Serena leaves.

Out of curiosity I'll watch the "big" episodes of S/M, but I'm not doing to sit through every episode anymore.

>>28313166
There's 50 posters in this thread alone. While there's a couple autists that literally just sit here shitposting because they hate the anime, most of those 50 are obviously still watching.

>>28313542

>>28313298
Same reason they hyped up Ash winning the league only for him to unceremoniously job in the biggest anti climax of the entire franchise. Because X and Y is a pokemon anime and a pokemon anime has a status quo it must follow.

Honestly XY is a tragedy. it's the perfect endgame series (Ash is set up to win a league, gets a god tier waifu with tons of development and a new power) stuck in an everlasting franchise (Thus Ash loses, the waifu is shipped off, and the new power amounts to "wow it's fucking nothing")really sad.

>>28313397
Serena isn't brock anon, and even he was replaced eventually. come on anon, it's over.

>>28313166
I thought that the TF arc would redeem the loss at the league, but so far it isn't that exceptional, and the new summaries don't help at all. I'm just hanging until Serena leaves, and them I'm off for good. Watching the same shit repeated for seven times straight is too much autism even for me.

>>28313586

This. Fucking this.

Fucking hell.

>>28313586
The thing is when Brock kept coming back that was early in the shows history. AG was only the 6th year of the anime, and the beginning of DP the 10th year. The anime still went on for over a decade back then.

At this point the show is 20 years old. Serena sticking around another gen would signal she's an endgame character.

Try looking at the TF arc from something other than a shipper's point of view, and you'll realize it really isn't bad at all.

>>28313713
Not really.

>>28313713
TF arc is the best vilian arc in the whole Pokeani.

>>28313586

As much as I hate the shipping shit, this was the perfect chance to wrap up Ash as a character and try something new in Alola.

But nope, incoming reset.

XY dub staff

Source: http://s13.zetaboards.com/Annotation_Station/topic/893524/14/

"The TPCi cast?

Unprofessionals.

Michele Knotz (Jessie, May, Misty) - Attacks fans who express their opinion that Rachael Lillis was the better Jessie/Misty, her boyfriend harasses and mudslings at Eric Stuart over a misquoted (Eric expressed relief that no one at Pokemon Worlds 2015 was hurt from two teens who had guns in their car trunk), and blocks anyone who attempts to reason with her. Kicked people out of her fanclub who didn't like her flaming those who didn't like her acting. Raged at the admins at Behind the Voice Actors to take down her image and her voice samples (have since put them back on regardless).

James Carter Cathcart (James, Meowth, Professor Oak, Gary Oak) - Went behind 4kids' back and accepted to jump ship from the company after TPCi offered him to continue his job (stealing roles of James, Prof. Oak and Meowth). Basically a traitor. Signs up on Pokemon fan sites to stroke his own ego. Had the audacity to shit on Maddie Blaustein before she died.

Sarah Natochenny (Ash Ketchum) - Promotes and smokes cigarettes. I can respect people's decisions but c'mon, it's not good and everyone knows it. The reasoning she quotes from her friend.. his reasoning is immature in itself. Says anyone who doesn't like her Ash is just a "haters gonna hate" person. C'mon man.

Bill Rogers (Brock) - Trolled Serebii when TPCi forced the 4Kids crew out to save money and put down fans who wanted the 4Kids crew to stay, and then years later in an interview with AnimeAmerica, he admitted he was lying then. TPCi also told him to say the 4Kids actors didn't want to dub the show anymore (k ima lie s'more for my job). Also lied about Tom Wayland still working on dubs/shows in New York when he doesn't do jack.

Tom Wayland (former TPCi director) - Accused of raping a woman. Was removed. He simply had the actors do what they like when in the recording booth."

It is only autistic to watch the dub now: it is not autistic to complain about it being crap.

>>28314588
I don't have to. They all have a better plot than pokemon. Everything else was intentionally made to not make sense.

>>28314335
>>28314481

Wow, they "betrayed 4kids" (lol) and one of them smokes, who gives a shit

The real reasons not to watch the dub are the fact that the acting is bad, the openings/endings are shit or nonexistent and they changed a bunch of the background music for no reason. Other Poke autists could probably come up with more reasons but I rarely watch the anime

Why are you all so obsessed with Serena leaving? This series legitimately broke trends.
Even if it follows trends, both Misty and May traveled two regions with Ash, so there's precedent.
Right now her NOT going to Alola is the theory.

>>28314741
It's mostly shitposting and falseflagging.

>>28314588
Arc-V.

Well, no. That one also went to the shitter.

They only needed to let Ash win for once. But no, it was too much to ask these fucking yellow scumbags.

>>28314741
May was two regions, yes, but not two generations.

Misty was the same production as before. Johto was just a continuation of the same series, it wasn't even billed as being a separate production.

>>28314723
The other real reason is the fact the TPCi dub script is bad and is full of outdated slang, rhymes, alliterations, and removes shipping hints and threats with weaker substitutes in their place.

That said, Cathcart did betray 4Kids so he is a dick for stealing roles from his colleagues when he jumped ship to TPCi, and Natochenny voices Ash/Satoshi, the goddamn main character, so a boy with the voice of a smoker isn't exact pleasant to listen to.

Cathcart is a hack, though, he thinks adding in outdated slang, rhymes, alliterations, and removing any language is good writing. Even 4Kids slipped in more adult humor than TPCi.

>>28315127
Even 4Kids kept more of the Japanese OST and their TR and Ash dialogue was way less idiotic, but I agree the voices were better back then in the dub.

What are some anime with actually good dubs where I dont feel embarrassed if I watch them?

>>28315257
It's probably new to them because they stopped paying attention to Pokemon late gen 2/early gen 3. Though I wonder why they would keep complaining about it in fucking 2016 (the current year) if that were the case

You already unironically watch a commercial ad aimed at japanese children, and a terrible one at that. You can't be picky with how you choose to eat your shit.

>>28315192
Ash's current effeminate, raspy dub voice doesn't cut it for me. Taylor at least sounded like a boy and was less gruff.

Cathcart is horrific as James, though, I never thought I'd long for the days of AG Eric Stuart as him, but I do.

Another SM ending.

Did YOU watch the dub as a kid? Did YOU know any of this?

>double deito
>it's not that there are two simultaneous dates, it's just that the same two people went on two dates in the same episode

>>28315306
Literally none.

Let's say tcpi stops doing the dub.
Who could/should they get to do it in their place?
What voice actors?

>>28315286
I don't think he's defending it, just pointing out that it's dumb that people are still complaining about it

>Even 4Kids kept more of the Japanese OST

That's really fucked up. I also forgot to mention that the 4Kids openings were better on average (though not nearly as good as the Japanese ones still so it doesn't matter, and they shouldn't change the music in the first place)

>>28315381
t. my only exposure to dubs was pokemon's/dubs from 20+ years ago

>>28315386
If THE EP destroys them, they are not going to dub anymore. Period.

Why did Amour stagnate so badly?

>>28315321
I'd choose to eat the shit where Ash isn't voiced by a smoker, James doesn't sound like he has pinecones shoved up his nose, and the music doesn't sound like UFO and elevator stuff. Also, the version that doesn't hide love hints, shove alliterations + rhymes into the villains' mouths, and has a 10 year old speak like one rather than saying he's "gonna switch gears" or that he's "a noob," thanks.

>>28315386
Rodger Parsons for narrator

>>28315409
t. I am a legal adult and still see a purpose in watching TV shows with the original audio replaced with local actors reading the lines because I have difficulty reading

Don't choke on your burger.

Nice numbers.

>>28315409
I'd certainly like to know what the errors were for Ronin Warriors (Yoroiden Samurai Troopers).

>>28315473
Literally no one even brought up reading subs. Nice victim complex.

>>28315388
It'd be dumb if the dub showed any signs of improvement, but all it's doing is showing regression, so I think the complaints are warranted.

That said, yes, and 4Kids openings were also longer and the lyrics were longer than 4 sentences repeated like the recent XYZ theme.

>>28315306
>>>/a/
You /v/ermin piece of shit.

>>28315507
So you know the original language and still choose to watch with the audio replaced with random overdubbers? That's even worse.

>>28315306
Don't think this is the place to ask that, but to my knowledge Fullmetal Alchemist dub is good.

>>28315366
Yes, and I stopped liking the dub once TPCi took over, but I didn't learn of all the crappy attitudes Cathcart etc. had until recently.

I can't believe I never picked up on the fact he was "old guard truthseeker" on Serebii/Bulba at the time of the change 10 yrs. ago, but I always hated the guy's posts even as a kid. Go figure?

>It's a dub shitposting episode, again.
Jannies where?

>>28315535
>he thinks you can go to /a/ and ask about fucking dubs
/a/ has standards, /v/-kun. Fuck off now.

>>28315557
literally putting words in my mouth at this point, it's like I said dub and you get all hostile and triggered, at no point did I even implicate that I exclusively watched dubs, that was just something you assumed to make a point

>>28315571
And did you ever stop to think about everything else you were lied to as a child?
