/vp/ is a spin-off of /v/. You literally cannot get rid of /v/ because the board as a whole is inherently diluted in /v/.

/padt/'s issue is that it is a general on a /v/-board that has an /a/ mentality, and expects everyone to have one too. But it's not like you can just move /padt/ to /a/, because this is the POKEMON board

It's a conundrum.

The fact that it has standards is what MAKES it the best place to discuss the anime, even in spite of all the shitposting.

I want to see Lana have a huge crush on Ash and be pressured by the other girls into confessing, only to be rejected as Ash reveals he has been dating Serena this whole time.

Lana has perpetual relevancy because she has Popplio.

>>29614053
I think they realized that the instant they saw the reactions to the poster.

Was the newest S&M PV making the show look closer to XY (focused on Satoshi being competent, lore and action scenes) deliberate?

>>29614068
I wonder if there really will be a mid-series change after a year or so. Maybe the school set-up only goes to Fall 2017, then they switch the art style back to XY and go back to adventure mode.

It's time to unleash the spics

>>29614070
The previous magazine article we got kinda ditched the "you'll laugh your ass of nonstop from this hilarious comedy show" angle the earlier marketing used too.

So yeah, I think they realized that wasn't really the best way to push the show to people.

I mean what kind of reaction did they think they would get? Even aside from XY Ash....this is also the first time they changed his design so drastically in 20 years.

>>29614087
but they already made at least the first 15 episodes unless they pull a Suicide Squad

>>29614122
I ship Lillie and Gladio.

Do it Matsui

>>29614119
If marketing is pushing a different angle, it's a potential sign they later episodes might be moving away from that.

Remember BW completely dropped the "competent Rocket trio" two years in, once they had fully realized that no, people seriously didn't like it.

>>29614119
It's more about choosing the right shots to put on the previews

>>29614082
But would that really be a reaction to people complaining or their plan all along? I mean, if they introduce Aether (with Lusamine and the rest of the gang) and Skull's named members (Guzma, Gladion, Plumeria) in the first half then they were probably planning to go more serious eventually.

>>29614131
But they're siblings.

This is a free world, is you don't like it then go and make a tumblr with your personified safespace.

I ship lillie with kiawe because I like amour

Don't forget Japan also had a backlash of Ash losing the Kalos league. TVTokyo probably took note of that too.

>>29614153
This is what I mean with puling a Suicide Squad. When Warner realized the audience didn't like edgy stuff and saw how popular stuff like Guardians of the Galaxy was they panicked and edited and reshote scenes and slapped pop culture songs. This is why the movie sucks.

>>29614122

Yeah Lillie is very popular in shipping, this prove that she is a best, and everyone wants her.

>>29614203
Then yeah that is probably what they did

The damage control with SM is obvious. A year into the series Ash will probably act more like his XY self, Serena will probably return, and Greninja will probably get a Charizard-like comeback.

Thjey don't need that. Just make SM good and not try to make a gag fest when Pokemon was never that. Also the school is a bad idea

All that happened was Serena kissed Ash. Serena always loved Ash, so no shit she wanted to kiss him. Ash, on the other hand, didn't even blush.

inb4 "t. Mistyfag", since that's literally all they can say when someone looks at and talks about that scene logically.

>>29614295
They panicked when they saw Yokai watch's popularity and XY's dipping ratings back in 2015.

However now in 2016 Yokai Watch has gone down in ratings considerably so it was pointless.

>>29614295
Because they thought people would respond positively. They then realized they didn't.

Might as well ask why they made Team Rocket edgy in BW.

>>29614257
It won't be a gagfest and if you seriously thought it would be one there must be something wrong with you.

Literally one of the most popular cartoon franchises of all time in Japan. Nearly Doraemon tier.

>>29614420
No but you must must have some serious retardation if you think they won't change things, they did with BW and the will do it again if SM is negatively received.

>>29614448
A lot of the movies are great.

>>29614462
I've seen some of it, never grew up upon me.

>>29614448
Yes.

>>29614473
Of course but I'm talking about people who think it was planned like that from the start and not damage control.

Honestly, series who change mid series always end up being a bigger mess.

>>29614504
By "it", do you mean the actual show or that weird "repurposed animation with entirely new dialogue" thing that gets confused for an actual English dub annoyingly often?

>>29614515
But thay doesn't mean they won't change stuff if it gets a bad reception.

4. Ugly clothes
5. Copy of Misty but with a bit more irritating personality

>>29615063
Its probably done intentionally. The XY anime had a lot of throwbacks to the beginning of the series, especially with Ash/Serena.

Yes, pic related is why Ash lost
Yajima's message is baically, true strength comes out when fighting not for winning, but for the sake of those you love
This is why Serena's kiss is so important, because it should help Ash realize why has he saved the world so many times, yet he still can't win a single league
Ash probably didn't get the message though

She is a big girl

>>29615089
Don't we all wish this to be true.

Have any of the directors ever took note? They never let Ash win due to thoughts of closing his story, but just one win doesn't mean the end. And now SM here looks amateurish and Ash looks ridiculous. the whole thing looks ridiculous. What happened to the animation staff and why the change? Yokai watch is terrible even in animation form and why would they react about a series trying to rival a 20 year old series. Pathetic. If you're going on for decades, don't worry about being phased out of popularity. Kids and adults will flock back to you. After all Pokemon has regions to explore, not just a single only city.

>>29615112
They're bound to reference Serena if they even did it on a demo.

>>29615107
Ash got the memo with the kiss.

>>29615107
Pretty much Ash's resolve? That seems like such a shounen trope, but Pokemon would be better with that.

>>29615129
The Kalos league backlash was pretty big, especially since the news spread to social media. Not even DP's loss to Tobias had that much outrage outside of pokemon forums.

So if they ever took note, it was now.

VS
Winning to prove he can protect Manon

>>29615167
I don't think we'll ever have a league again. SM looks more of a vacation from gym battles. I wish sinnoh had a battle frontier, that way the whole BW arc wouldn't have been retconned. Don't get me started with team skull, they're terrible. Even the theme is terrible.

>>29615207
That's not the point you idiot. Why do you leave out the actual event? Are you so triggered?

>>29615189
There's a girl with a straw hat that has a sprained ankle and talks about her boyfriend rescuing her.

>>29615240
Are we sure it is a reference? how the japanese,french,italian demo went?

So, every series had their points when things got really stale and boring, like Johto Fillers or pretty much everything after BW league, but I can't remember a time when I was really bored with XY/XY&Z. Did XY/XY&Z at any point become stale and boring to you? Was any arc actually bad?

>>29615167
>Not even DP's loss to Tobias had that much outrage outside of pokemon forums.
That's because everyone knew he was going to lose from episode titles, so there weren't tons of faggots that had been told it looked like he'd win this time watching for the first time in years.

>>29615346
XY&Z44-46 were not considered more than "mediocre at best" by anyone, and the "it sucks that XY is ending soon" air this arc had to it didn't help matters.

So basically those.

>>29615330
>Are we
Somehow not baiting.

>>29615107
That was so fucking bullshit. Alan didn't know or care about the league before Ash told him, and even after that he still said his motivation was to battle with Ash again. And how the fuck winning the league helped him protect Manon?

>>29615395
But by then, it was all pretty much over and done with. Those episodes are just the "Return of the King ending" that the series deserved imo.

>I watch as Serena descends the escalator. I don't even realize that I have taken a step forward, away from Pikachu and Clemont and Bonnie. There is something strangely final about this; it feels like I lost something when she turned her blue eyes away from me in a way that felt too final, too irreversible. It is strange.
>"Satoshi, may I have a last moment?", comes the voice taking me aback.
>She climbs upwards the escalator and all of a sudden she is facing me. Her blue eyes meet mine and all of a sudden I am too aware of them. I am too aware of her face, too aware of how close it is to mine, too aware of the strange burning sensation that is taking over my body and what more, too aware of how good it feels. Finally: I am aware that this is how I felt all the time.
>And then I feel her lips on mine. A whole journey condensed into a single moment forever to be shared in our memories. I open my eyes. I see her regaining her footing after tiptoeing to reach me. By my side I know Pikachu and Clemont and Bonnie are red-faced and yet it doesn't seem to matter. They are outside this moment. Only this moment exists. For this second, only the scarlet face descending the elevator seems real.
>"Thank you!", she says, disappearing forever as she goes to board her plane.

>>29615412
Did you watch the show? Alan's ultimate goal was to gather Mega Evolution energy by battling strong opponents and with that energy revitalize Hari-san and bring Manon's smile back. Him wanting to battle Ash was just his desire to battle someone who could make battles fun for him again.

>>29615381

It doesn't really work in a show like this. The leagues are sporting events were people play fair, Ash isn't some Goku-tier battle retard who would be willing to risk getting a hostage killed or whatever just so he could have a fair match within the rules against some evil fuck, nor is he "the only one powerful enough to stand a chance against x".

It probably helped XY that it was only 3 years instead of 4. There were less boring filler gaps than previous sagas because the writers didn't need to waste time rather than focus on importan arcs.

Both AG and DP had rough filler gaps around the 7th-8th Gyms.

Looking back its weird the DP generation was so long. GameFreak took a year off with no new release (2007), then released Platinum in 2008 and then HGSS in 2009.

Especially since BW came out on the DS too so its not like they had to work on new hardward or make 3D graphics like when they switch to 3DS and XY.

Kissu !

I just took a quick browse on Serebii's XY threads, they're still talking about how Serena and Clemont "got shafted out of development" in the series.

Jesus Christ. The writers did everything they wanted to do with those two, they were intended to be a co-star like Dawn or get a lot of focus like May. I think the XY cast was handled just fine, although Serena could have been a bit more active in the first year.

>>29617318
Nobody gives a shit about your opinion, Scott. Now fuck off.

>>29617202
There will be some kind of announcement when that happens.

>>29617340
Its not my opinion, its the serebii posters opinions. I think Serena and Clemont were handled fine.

>>29617202
Technically the anime is already close to its 1000th episode if you count all the specials.

They must have made nearly 25 specials by now if you count the ones that started during AG. Or even before that with the Raikou special and the Mewtwo Returns specials...but those were presented as TV movies.

Because she was introduced to be Ash's wife. She wasn't introduced to do anything with Pokemon.

>>29617318
Serebii posters think that the quality of a character and their developments is solely dependent on how well they accomplish the main goal the series set for them. They aren't quick on the uptake when it comes to the slightest bit of subtlety. That's why they generally don't like Serena, because Tripokalons had less of a focus than contests had before and was a bit rushed. They will also see her crush on him as a bad trait because it tells them that it's the only personality she has, while they fail at noticing how she develops throughout the series because of the crush and how those developments even effect Ash in the long run.
