Come on. We've seen clips of like 4 episodes in the trailer.
We saw the first episode, the second episode, an episode about Green, an episode about the legendary beasts, Lance vs Gyarados, an episode about Cheryl (which could be the same as the Heatran episode) and an episode about the Unova League

That's 8/9 episodes. There's still 9 left unknown/.

Shitty animations and voice acting (especially that horrendous Pikachu), completely disregards Origins, fights are like 8 seconds where nothing happens but Pikachu screaming CHU CHU CHU CHU. It was literally pointless, can't even say it's really nostalgic since it's Red and Pikachu doing everything

Episode 2 wasn't that bad but nothing actually happened other than Giovanni disregarding the whole "wow I was wrong" thing

All in all this whole thing just seems really cheap

I think their point is to entertain or convey ideas that the team who animates thought were worth animating. What point are you looking for? the substance for the first episode is in it's depiction of cool parts of the region with decently animated fightscenes.

funny how the pokemon brand has generated millions these couple of months yet they can't afford to animated a 1-cour season ep 13 "about 1.2 million".

18 shorts x 4min each = 72min of animation = 3eps = roughly 280-300k

Why are jap companies so fucking cheap?
>>
The three minute time limit is really going to stymie the quality of this series

Losing Giovanni's character development was not a good idea

That said, the fight scenes are incredibly well choreographed; the anime never did shit this good. The way Probopass was using its hovering hands, the way they never cut to still shots over animated background to "explain away" having to actually choreograph and actual fighting or dodging; instead showing everything

Fucking choice. Shame about the time limit. Instead of trying to jam twenty years of story across half a dozen regions in 3 minutes, why not show smaller moments in more conducive real time? More atmospheric and less ex positive, is what I mean

This. The anime is shit, but the fact that there are other battle applications than just being a "Get hit -> You hit them" turn based battle system is just so much more enjoyable a thing. Attack the horn is some stu[id shit, but imagine if Pokemon was an action game where you had to use ulterior strategy in battle? Would be great.

>Losing Giovanni's character development was not a good idea
Generations wasn't meant to connect to Origins. It was probably meant to connect to the actual games.

Also, I don't understand why people expect this to be some fully fletched anime with a coherent story. From the moment I saw it was going to be 3/5 minutes per episode, I expected the episodes to be mini stories which sole purpose is to give the story of the games more depth.
>>
>>28567927
You forget Team Rocket has a LOT of connections and Giovanni is a very experienced crime lord, it's all too simple for him to fake some documentations, hide some files away, or pay off people to turn a blind eye to his identity and his position.
>>
>>28567216
hm, is this the first time that a cop is not completely incompetent in Pokemon and needs help from a little boy?
>>
>>28568121
That's opened to interpretation of closed as in closing hours, meaning a gym battle shouldn't be occurring when he kicked open the door.
>>
>>28567429
Nothing, it's just Team Rocket's motto from the game.
>>
>>28567927
I figure he just used an alias on any official documentation. The statues at the front of the gym proudly displaying his name is another story though.
>>
>>28567917
I think they did that to make supprie attack. If somone was on other side...
>>
>>28568225
I hope to god this produces enough interest into a more focused show, say Looker's interpol adventures, but that's an uphill battle.
>>
>>28568054

It was just a crime drama scene. Whats cringey about seeing other sides of the Pokemon world? Did you 'cringe' when you read the manga and saw Pokemon being killed, humans getting damn-near slaughtered by Pokemon, and rotting zombie Pokemon?

>>28568225
>expected the episodes to be mini stories which sole purpose is to give the story of the games more depth.
I don't think it's going to do that either, though. It seems like it's just going to be random side stories that were never there to begin with and are too short to be supplementary or reanimated bits of actual plots elements from the games. I doubt it'd deepen the depth of any of the game's stories at all.

I was expecting a short conversation between Giovanni and Silver at the end of the second episode to acknowledge the Celebi event, but oh well.

This was great.

But now I know better than to go to /vp/ to see reactions about anything because this board is just filled with aspies and autists bitching about absolutely nothing at all. Can't wait for SM to release so I can pick up some FC's and get the fuck out until the next Pokemon game drops.

I don't think the board was as horrible in the months leading up to X/Y's release.

They try so hard in both Origins and this to make them cool, but I just can't take Giovanni or Team Rocket seriously at all.
>>
The only thing I had a problem with was making Giovanni still blatantly evil at the end, directly contradicting both Origins and the games themselves. Even if in HGSS he eventually intended to return to Team Rocket, it was clear at the end of Gen 1 that he was focusing solely on training and bettering himself, rather than being all "Team Rocket will never fall!!!1"
>>

Exactly how I feel. They said "Showing key elements from each game" or similar and instead we got Pikachu's Battle Adventure and a looker story which was made up. Do looker in a DP episode but not in Kanto

>>28568845
Well the kid fought him in an even 1v1 Pokemon battle. The police had no idea what kind of combat power Giovanni had, he could have had more men with him too, and in such a situation, Giovanni would probably unleash all his Pokemon at once, and being a skilled trainer, would be capable of coordinating all of them at once. A experienced and skilled trainer with a full team of high leveled Pokemon, especially with shit like Nidoking, Rydon and fucking Dugtrio, could probably give even a full SWAT team a serious run for their money

I though Giovanni changed his mind about team rocket after red defeated him, as shown in the games and Origins, not sure why they decided to change it here.
>>
I liked them. I can appreciate them trying to make Pikachu sound less like Ikue Otani and more like an actual mouse, but it sounded pretty shit. The battles were cool but short.

Second episode was better overall. The voice acting could be a lot worse, and I just love the idea of Pokemon working alongside SWAT officers.

This is alright, not amazing, but alright. Cancel the actual anime regardless, no replacement is needed.
Not because I watch it, but because I don't like it and I don't want other people to enjoy it.
Fuck you hmph
>>
>>28568845
Because Red's the main character so he can't lose (except that one battle which was probably the optional battle you can lose in the games as well).

Also, Giovanni fight was 6v2. Giovanni's lead wiped out most of his team; Red won cause of Charizard power.
>>
>>28568845
All player characters are abnormally skilled trainers, they could kick that swat team's ass.
>>
>>28568928
It's decent. First episode was a 7/10 or so. It had nice battle scenes and the kid in me always likes to see random legendaries wrecking shit. Too bad most people didn't realize it was just an introduction and instead expected it to have some "plot", or are too busy bitching about game inconsistencies.

Second was pretty boring and felt like it was trying too hard to look "mature". But at least magnemite was cool and Looker was cute. 5/10

Overall it's okay. I expect the next shorts to be a lot better since literally every other region has more interesting events and characters than Kanto.

>>28568824

Not bad. I expected much worse.

Some of the things were really neat. Magnemite using its magnet to open the door was cool and they managed to make Probopass seem pretty bad ass.

>>28568845
It's never really shown much, especially in the anime, but having a large number of highly trained Pokemon on your team is a very difficult thing to do. Ace Trainers have only a small number of Pokemon, and they are seen as, well, aces. Gym leaders rarely have more than four Pokemon, even the Elite Four on average stop at five, with six being resigned only to the best of the best of the best. Champions are some of the only trainers with full parties, because they are so skilled. You, as the MC, are able to handle a full team of Pokemon because you are a natural born prodigy of a trainer. For a normal trainer in the Pokemon world, having more then two or three, and having them well trained is a very taxing process.

So for a single trainer, who is extremely experienced, it would be like facing Rambo, only he can cause Earthquakes, shoot laser beams, control the weather, summon up tsunamis, throw out swirling vortexes of fire, or flip tanks with ease.

Pika's game cry is nowhere near as high-pitched as this one.

Second was kind of neat, but these felt less substantial than origins even. I think it would have been better if it was a direct sequel to origins.

There wasn't much to enjoy, although the Probopass was cool. I guess this short explains what Red was doing in his free time. It's interesting to see them experiment with Pokemon not saying their names, but it doesn't feel right on Pikachu.

Okay, guys, my thoughts on Generations so far:

Episode 1- That was just utter shit. I'm sorry, but it was, we just saw a Red who was silent and barely shown with his Pikachu that had an oval for a head battle various Pokemon from various regions for only a few seconds. 1/10, very disappointing. The 1 is for the Animation being decent and way better than the Sun and Moon trailer's was.

Episode 2- Mediocre. Certainly far better than Episode 1, but it still felt a bit dull at times. Looker was a pretty cool guy, though, certainly enjoyable & his grunts were OK enough, if not a bit dull. The Pokemon were varied unlike Episode 1, too. I prefer Looker's Generations dub voice over Jason Griffith from the Anime, but I prefer Giovanni's Ted Lewis from the Anime and Jamieson Price from Origins over this VA for Giovanni- this guy totally phoned it in and said "Pok-uh-mon" to boot. Bleh.
6.5/10

You just summed up my thoughts on Generations so far: I really hope the other 16 episodes are better, and more like Episode 2 than the crap Episode 1 was.

I do love the voice they gave Looker in Episode 2, though, but Giovanni's is even worse than Craig Blair was in the TPCi dub before Ted Lewis came back...expect better from these actors since they're not the phoned in DuArt dub shitters.
>>
>>28569678
I mean in terms of the Pokemon being used against others: it was just Pikachu vs. a regional specific Pokemon in a random town in the first one.

At least the second one had different ones used by people, maybe I should've clarified that, sorry.
>>
>>28569488
This was really neat
>>
>>28569725
Episode 2 > Episode 1, no question about that, but come on, the Giovanni VA at the end completely slept through his performance. Not sure if it was Richard Epcar, but that was hands down the most lifeless thing I've seen him do, if so.

You know what the worst part is? These are some of our better VAs these days literally phoning in their performances. The only English VA who did a good job in these 2 episodes was Looker's: Giovanni's is hands down the worst of the now 4 voice actors he's had in English.

Ironically, our voice acting was most listenable in the first 8 seasons of the Anime, or the 4 episodes of Origins, the rest has been shit as far as Pokemon goes.

You should know Giovanni's Anime voices (both) and his Origins voice in English were better than this phoned in "Pok-uh-mon" guy they hired for Generations, just saying.

I hate that the English VAs are phoning it in hard, because they did way better on Origins than this shit. Only Looker's dub voice is great so far, the rest are shit.

Pikachu voice...well it's better than Ash's by Ohtani who repeats its name for 900+ episodes, but it's still way too squeaky.

First episode was alright, but Pikachu sounded terrible. The fights, scenery and animation in general looked pretty good, but it would have been better if it showcased all the protagonists battling rather than just Red. Legendary transitions were pretty cool, and the red version opening was pretty well done.

Second episode had bad voice acting, the plot didn't make a whole lot of sense (shouldn't the police force know Giovanni is the Viridian Gym Leader? They should've been trying to figure out who the Rocket Boss is rather than where he is), and the animation looked like it took a bit of a nosedive. Looker should've had his croagunk with him even if this did take place in Kanto.
I did like how it portrayed Giovanni as trying to bring Team Rocket back though, it's closer to his game counterpart than anything else.

Overall it was pretty underwhelming. Maybe it will get better as it goes on.
I'd also like to watch it subbed to see if the jap audio fixes the terrible voice acting
>>

It seems TPCi are less cheap with the dubbing of this than the Anime & its associated Movies, but I hate that these are the Origins actors who did good there, but all but Looker's VA, phoned it in hard.

The shorts would be better without the voice acting. Other than that they're pretty good.
>>
>>28569981
We've never really had a "good" Pokemon dub, but our actors when 4Kids did the first 8 seasons and SDI Media did the 4 episodes of Origins are MUCH better than the TAJ/DuArt cast of the Anime from seasons 9 onwards and these Origins VAs (minus Looker, his dub voice is solid unlike the rest).

>>28569962
I didn't think there could be a worse English VA for Giovanni than Craig Blair was: this guy topped the list. Also, "Pok-uh-mon," really?

The only people that think American anime dubs are good is the crowd that actively refuses to watch anything that isn't in English, yet still watch very little other than anime. They think it's tolerable because it's the only kind of voice acting they ever really get exposed to.

>>
>>28570060
Some subs are better, but generally I like the dubs better. I think it's because a lot of anime characters are young and Japanese comes off as overly formal or too cute for the characters in a lot of situations.

The biggest example of bad original actors is the Dragon Ball series where all the Japanese males sound like Shonen kids. It's especially jarring for Goku, Vegeta, and Krillin coming from the English version.

The dubs for Pokemon (Origins excluded) have been horrible since Season 9 of the Anime began, though, I prefer the older seasons and Origins dubbed, but I prefer the newer seasons (as well as most likely Generations if it gets a Japanese release) more in Japanese.

Goku is a manchild, though, his Japanese voice works for that (though her screams are grating, admittedly). I prefer Sean Schemmel (in Kai, he was shit in Z), but still, Masako Nozawa is good in her own way.

>>28570586
Than the japanese version would be the dub retard.
>>
>>28570691
Looker has the only good dub voice in Generations so far, honestly, I'm glad he didn't get a retarded accent and the guy emoted properly with a fitting voice. He's better than Jason Griffith was in the Anime, that's for sure.

That Giovanni voice in this episode is HORRID, though.
>>
>>28570766
Well, that's what happened with Mastermind of Mirage Pokemon (aka when the main Anime's English dub goes to shit & the whole crew from the first few seasons are replaced with street trash), and in Japanese it had a different script regardless, so not necessarily the case.
>>
>>28567298
This, holy shit. The other legendaries popping in was awful.

But goddamn that part was great. Also this Pikachu is pretty cute.
>>
Why the fuck are they in 360p?
>>
Still too early to judge all the shorts, but so far it's ok I guess. How many episodes will there be anyways? I honestly expected them to upload one per week, or was this time an exception because it just came out?
>>
>>28570825
Pikachu's squeaks are pretty shit, though, as is its oval face.

Overall, Generations is gonna be one of those "That's what she said" moments for us unless Episodes 3-18 kick up the quality several notches. I am thankful it's not an Ashime and I do think Episode 2 was a big step up over 1, but come on, they can do better than this.

Also, JYB same-voicing Blue/Green? UGH.
>>
>>28570766
This was obviously made and written in Japan, and unless there just plain isn't a Japanese version, the Japanese-voiced version would obviously have not only been recorded first, but also made using the actual script written by the actual writers.

The dub premiering first doesn't make it "the original"
>>
>>28570833
To sell the 1080p version on iTunes later
>>
>>28567954

You wouldn't like it if they did so why should they bother?
>>
>>28570833
TPCi are cheap fucks and try to go for the lowest budget options available, and this has always been them, so why are you surprised?

>>28570840
18, supposedly, but I only heard this shit through the grapevine. I do know it'll go up through September 23rd, and if you do the math, if 2 specials air on one day starting today, you'd only get 16, so take that for what you will.
>>
>>28570867
This is going to be Mastermind of Mirage Pokemon all over again in the regard the dub premiers first and then the Japanese version's release with the (proper) script, isn't it?
>>
>>28570586
>he doesn't even know what "dub" means
>>
>>28567948
>That said, the fight scenes are incredibly well choreographed; the anime never did shit this good.
I hope you aren't serious.
>>
>>28570868
Yup, TPCi being Jews as always, because all they care about is the money in the end.
>>
>>28570929
Yeah. Or Sonic X's later seasons. Or that one toyetic anime (I think it was Bakugan).
Have you ever seen anyone claim that Sonic X season 3 "was originally in English and the Japanese version is a dub"?
>>
>>28570948
See >>28570929, please, because this has happened before, and it'll probably happen again.

>>28570950
The Ashime is horrible in practically every other regard at this point, but the one thing it does do right lately, are the fights.
>>
>>28570691
I guess they wanted to keep it serious.

Kind of a shame, though. Part of Looker's character was just being goofy, yet somehow competent.
>>
>>28570973
Nope: the Pokemon fandom is just retarded these days, for some reason, I guess ignorance is bliss for those who didn't follow the Series all the way through.

Though, I gotta say, Giovanni's Generations dub voice is utter shit.
>>
>>28571018
Hey, Looker's the only good voice in the Generations dub, though: give credit where it's due.

Looker in this isn't a comedian, he was serious here, so the actor did his job well for that.

GIOVANNI'S VA, ON THE OTHER HAND...WTF.
>>
>>28570983
Right, so why did you or that anon say the anime never did battles this good?

It wasnt even that good, it was mediocre at best. The best was the Probopass fight with Pikachu's constant struggle, but even I can admit the ashnime does battles way better than this shit.
>>
>>28571065
It's that Anon, not me, just to clarify that.

Episode 1 of Generations was SHIT imo, but Episode 2 was okay. And yes, even I can acknowledge that, and I HATE what the Ashime has become myself in newer seasons.
>>
Why did people like episode 2 more than 1? Nothing happened in episode 2. Only cool parts were Magnemite and Machamp.
>>
>>28571122
Because Looker was more interesting with his grunts than watching a Pikachu do random battles in random cities for 3 minutes and there was more of a plot there? Episode 2 had something beyond "OMG PIKACHU BATTLES AGAINST A POKEMON IN THIS REGION LOL!" going for it.

Nothing happened in Episode 1.
>>
wtf I love Probopass now
>>
Can we all agree this is the worst of the dub performances for Generations?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeX5GzN03AU&t=3m36s

I didn't think you could phone in a performance harder than DuArt's crew do, but this guy has done it.
>>
>>28571180
Oh yeah the plot was spectacular

>Giovanni is here
>oh wait lol no he's not
>POKEMON EXIST FOR ME TO RULE MWAHAHA
Fucking riveting. I'll take fun stuff like Probopass hopping around over bland voice acting and a hackneyed script.
>>
>>28571180

But that's the point.

It's just an animated short. The animation being showcased is almost always the number one goal of an animated short.

The first episode is the better short honestly. It's just a neat animated thing. That's what shorts are.
>>
>>28571253
But Looker was alright?
Giovanni was shit, I'll give you that one.
>>
>>28571261
Then shorts are shit and Generations as a whole has been awful so far.

>>28571258
Oh yeah the plot of Episode 1 was better, right?

>Pikachu battles this Pokemon in this region, OMG

I agree the voice acting from the Giovanni VA in the second one and the script is shit, but the first one has even less of a plot.
>>
>>28571290
Looker's good. It's Giovanni I was trying to link, and yes, his dub voice is shit. I think it's Richard Epcar phoning it in hard.
>>
>>28571328
Giovanni's English voice actors ranked from best to work:

1. Ted Lewis (Seasons 1-8, 11+ of the Anime)
2. Jamieson Price (Origins)
3. Craig Blair (Seasons 9-10 of the Anime)
4. Richard Epcar (Generations)

>>28567992
>Like, i cant even imagine a war with pokemon.
Anyone got that webm from the lucario movie I think? With the massive hordes of team-colored pokemon going at each other?
>>
>>28571390
Lucario Movie is the last Ashime thing I legitimately enjoyed. Once TPCi got their street actors, I was done.
>>
>>28571299

>Not seeing the value of 3-4 minutes of animation

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dA6KPuUGQz4

Shorts are great. You're just upset this is not like a real 20 minute show. They're not going to be like that.

The first generations episode was great, and the second was alright. Script was really stilted and awkward.

How comes secondary animes (Origins, Generation) always get the colors right when the fucking Ashnime always oversaturate shit since Sinnoh (Yeah, XY was slightly better but still not it compared to those)
>>
>>28571456
Giovanni's voice in the second was shit in English, I'll give you that, and the script could've been better, but I'd still take the second short over the first one. The first one was just Pikachu battling against random Pokemon in different regional cities: how is that really even a plot? It was boring, honestly.

Granted, yes, I prefer an episode over a short, but this series as a whole is underwhelming so far.

>>28571514
For me, the real crime of the Ashime is that Sarah Natochenny and Cathcart dub crew since Sinnoh: awful stuff.
>>
>>28571572

And that's why this series isn't for you.

As someone who likes animation the first episode gripped more more. It was a well animated little short. It doesn't need a plot. The animation is the draw.

The second one is okay but it's better for it's worldbuilding than anything else it does.
>>
The best part about these videos is Verlisify getting btfo as the top comment on the first one
>>
>>28571739
Who?
>>
>>28571696
I understand your point, but my thing is, Generations is nothing special and it's more worldbuilding stuff that Episode 2 does that is more for me than mindless animation like Episode 1.

>>28571787
Verlisify is a PokeTuber (like those hacks JWittz who became a tool for TPCi, and TamashiiHiroka, who is a SJW) who pisses people off with his awful behavior towards them.
