What the fuck was his problem?
Stupid sexy Charizard
ash didn't have enough badges for it
>>220024041He had eight badges and the fucking thing wouldn't obey him when he was literally battling at the Pokemon League.
Answer this simple question: would YOU respect Ash?
>>220024131If he saved my life? Sure
>>220024140This I don't understand why they turned an abuse victim into an asshole against the guy who saved his life
>>220024131>>220024041>>220024080Honestly in retrospect, the Kanto saga felt like the people who worked on it hated Ash. He doesn't get the opportunity to earn his badges, his own friends and mom rib on him. It's not until Orange Islands and Johto that the show treats him with more respect.
>>220024200Ash more like Ass
the writers didn't want him to steal Pikachu's thunder
>>220024411Lol
>>220023763stereotypical lazy charizard
>>220024131His mom sure does
>>220024489inb4 Ash was some orphan scooped up off the street and that's why his mother was always single and cool with him leaving when he turned 10
>>220023763>10 year old tells you what to do I’d start loafing around too
>>220023763maybe he just wasn't interested in sports and could've thrived helping the Chansey at a Pokemon center instead or something
>>220024489Literally me
>>220024489giwtwm
>>220024080he didn't really earn those badges
>mindrapes millions of tiktok pokemon investors
>save it from literally dying>becomes the biggest asshole Pokemon he's ever hadI can't bring myself to like Charizard
Charizard is the girl you were friends with before she got hot and developed huge tits and how she thinks she's too good for you (because she is)
>>220023763
>>220024489Delia would never cheat on her husband, Anon.
>>220024200well they did have that one episode all about gary fucking delia
>>220025175>isn't missing one of the ears
>>220027040
>>220026367The whiplash is real when you rewatch the Charmander episodes. For a while I started wondering if Charizard was a different pokemon because the personality shift was drastic.
It's a metaphor for children entering their teenage phase.Not that deep actually.
>>220026367if your pokemon evolves and becomes too high level it becomes a dickhead
>>220025175QRD?
>>220023763Reminds me of myself trying to control my older brother when he was inside me 30 years ago.
The only thing that annoyed me was that he kept using it.He had a Muk, Kingler and a hundred Tauros who loved him. Only saw them once a series.
>>220024489where is the rest?
>>220024200it's called a character arc, he starts off as a worthless idiot but keeps trying and slowly becomes a great trainer
>>220027649violence is never the answer
>>220028289I don't think you can bring 100 Tauros to a Pokemon battle
>>220029034Unless the question is what is not the answer.
>>220028289>slot opens up after Butterfree leaves>didn't fill it with Krabby>even though the thing clearly liked/respected him (because he caught it all on his own) even before he did finally use it in the Indigo League
>it's a blackpill episode
He's brat.
>>220023763I think Dawn's Swinub is the only other time they did this, every other instance of a Pokémon becoming disobedient had a reason beyond "evolution made them an asshole."
>>220029037It would have saved them needing to walk everywhere
>>220029362Teaching kids all about the dangers of jestermaxxing.
>>220028013NATO supporter?
>>220023763Charizard disrespecting him was one thing, but why did it immediately start hating him when it evolved into Charmeleon? Ash took him in, saved and befriended Charmander, they had some victories together and then for no reason Charmeleon decided Ash was a faggot. Maybe if they showed that Ash was lazy or soft when training Charmander it would make sense, but I disliked Charmander's heel-face turn from grateful new friend to Charmeleon's petty edgelord fag.
>>220029285That Krabby was OP as fuck. He used it in its first battle and it rampaged straight through another guy's entire team, evolving in the process and then just continued dominating every fight he ever brought it to. Yet he never used it in his regular setup.
>>220029285No lie this thing made me seek out and use a Krabby of my own when I was a kid playing the games, he was so based. Kingler is actually a pretty good pokemon and Guillotine blew my mind the first time it connected.
>>220029362Now you remember Meowth was played by a tranny in the English dub and "she" passed away.
>>220029917Why would I remember that
>>220024489You just know a Korean made this doujin
>>220029943Why, because the art is terrible? Looks more like obvious western trash to me, obvious because it reads left-to-right.
>>220029956It's colorful, not black and white.
>>220029937"She" also Jewish and "she" played male characters a lot.
>>220023763Charizard's disobedience was probably some of the more interesting thing the anime did
>>220029839To show how pokemon personalities can totally change when they evolve, and therefore justify Pikachu's reluctance to evolve.
>>220023763Evolved too quickly and pretty much out of spite. He needed to actually get his ass kicked real bad to make him realise he wasn't all that.
>>220029037Oh no. I broke the rules? Who's going to enforce that when they're staring down a tauros stampede?
>>220030167Tea Rocket coded response and honestly I'm here for it
>>220030167>Who's going to enforce that when they're staring down a tauros stampede?
>>220027040Ash wasn't a good trainer. That was the whole idea of the show
>>220030365But he was going to be the very best?
>>220030146This. Discipline is just as much of a virtue as patience is.
>>220030449He won a lot of badges purely out of pity or camaraderie. Then in the Pokemon league he still didn't know how weakness worked
>>220028289He also gave away a Primeape that won a fighting tournament after using it once.
in real life, if ash and misty were constantly around each other and camping together with no supervision, they would be fucking after a few weeks
>>220024489Noooooooo Delia is for Gary only.
>you will never find out who is Ash's father because the anime series ended
>>220029943artist is aarokira who is american
>>220030365yes he was
>>220029362>you'll never be human so just forget about meBros...
>>220031708The writers in season one had far more leeway which is why it's better, the producers only got involved when they had toThey basically noticed Ash caught a primeape and realized it wasn't marketable so they told them to drop
>>220029362redpill
If I was Ash, I’d have tossed Charizard’s pokeball into the ocean.
>>220027841IIRC, the disobedience started with Charmeleon who also wouldn't listen to him. It only evolved into Charizard to fight another Pokemon.
>I am....forgotten.....
>>220024200The show would have been 10x better if Team Rocket didnt show up and derail every fucking episode. I am replaying Fire Red right now and thought "Netflix has Pokémon I'll watch a few epsiodes" after not seeing one since grade 8 and it does not hold up in the slightest. I felt retarded for loving it so much as a kid.
>>220032778>cotton ball with arms and legs>it's somehow quinoa afhow did they do it?
>>220026367It's just its nature^tmAsh was too much of a wet towel to control a charizard
>>220023763ash is a faggot and chadizard had enough of him
>>220023763the writer of the anime said is because ash essentially stole charmander He didn't catch him with pokeball that's why Charizard didn't respect him
>>220024022>feels like I’m burning nothing at all >nothing at all >nuthin at all
>>220023763For me, it's the ep where Jessie goes to nursing school and repeats her own name while the Chanceys around her all repeat their names.
>>220024200Wow, they made a character just like me!
>>220033661He did catch Charmander with his own ball. It's shown at the end of the episode.
>>220033722extremely cringe post, seriously anon take a fucking look at the shit you just typed cackling like a moronwhat an embarassment
>>220033447yes but consider Jessie sexo
>>220033447Of all the anime we got around that era, Pokemon is definitely around the bottom. DBZ, Yugioh, Digimon, Zoids all mog.
>>220033447Post your lineup.
>>220034463VenusaurFearowNidokingButterfreePikachuSeadraHardly the best lineup but its working.
>>220023763Cause it's a Japanese Cartoon and they love reluctant but powerful as a trope.
>>220024200pokemon always had a dogshit story, its only appeal was wanting to live in that world having adventures with magical creatures
>>220033447Team Rocket was the best part of the show.
>>220034779Sounds like some gay furry shit.
>>220033447>ChildhoodTeam Rocket is awful.>AdulthoodTeam Rocket carries this show.
>>220034424For me, it's Cutémon
Darleon
Was it autism?
>>220033447that shit pissed me off even as a kid as soon as some progress in the main storyline happens team rocket comes in and fucks the plot up with their bullshit shenanigans. especially when they would make us wait like 4 episodes to finally get to a gym battle from when they tease it
>During sex, light the girl's crotch on fire, then put it out with cum, then flap your arms wildly yelling "YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH BADGES TO TRAIN ME!"
I always assumed that the deal with Charizard was that they didn't want to keep it in ash team and having a fully evolved starter kind of overshadows the other mons. Still bullshit he never fully leveled up Squirtle or Bulbasaur
>>220025125correct, he never actually beats Sabrina or Giovanni. Charmander is canonically another trainers pokemon, so he would have obey issues.
>>220032729If only humans could evolve at will, then we'd have no more black people..
>>220038488You autists really are pure destination and conclusion like who gives a shit about story or meaning.
>>220035305This. Meowth is pure kino himself with some of his one liners
>>220032778
I dropped this show after the mewtwo movie. As a kid it pissed me off how they're using basic ass attacks like tackle on high level pokemon instead of cool powerful attacks like earthquake, fire blast etcAlso it wasn't fun to watch ash constantly jobbing. No idea why they never gave him a victoryhttps://youtu.be/LUMj9N9fmbU?feature=shared
>>220039753Yeah that was pretty triggering. Voice acting aside, and a human actor arfing like a dog,>Choosing a fire type to fight a water type>Mysterious pokemon used psychic powers, and Gary had an Alakazam>WHOOAA WHAAAT HOW DID IT DO THAT???!>Then sending a poison type against the psychic typeIn hindsight, it's very obvious that the show makers never played the games or read the comics.
>>220031708I remember that one pissing me off more than anything. The Butterfree leaving was fine, it wanted to fuck and have kids, whatever. The Primeape though, he left it at that gym for training. Train him yourself, asshole! You're a pokemon TRAINER!
>>220023763i hated this stupid nigger for doing this
>>220023763>that episode where ash and the gang stumble into an inner city gang war that uses scythers and electabuzzthat episode is PEAK kino
Here's your final boss
The best pokemon episode was the one where it was just the pokemon alone talking amongst themselves after they got separated from their trainersIt was comfy and kinoIt also kinda pissed me off because as a kid it gave me the impression that the final evolution pokemon were huge
>>220024411That's actually a good one, CarlosYou're a smart kid.
>>220029362Great redpill on female nature for young boys
>>220033722
>abused becomes the abusermany such cases
>>220026343thighs
Why is Gyrados and Tyranitar always depicted using hyperbeam when thats a special attack and they are physical attackers?
>>220032778https://youtu.be/Wb4VgQCAX3w?feature=sharedReminder that hadjames not kicked tf outta mankey ash would never have caught a primeape.
>>220041869Because hyperbeams are cool and they are kinda kaiju coded
>>220029839It's like you have a baby male chimp irl.He will be cute and adorable but if he will grow up, he will likely rip off your face.
>>220041165I think the show is mediocre children's entertainment for the most part, but the Kanto episodes are fascinating. It was like they didn't actually know what to do with a Pokemon show because the brand wasn't as established or as Westernized, and so you have all sorts of bizarre episodes like>the island full of giant Pokemon that turn out to be robots>a giant Tentacruel attacking and flooding a coastal city>James getting breast implants>exorcising ghosts, or something>literally just The Poseidon AdventureA lot of this shit was straight up not for kids. And a lot of these episodes, like the one you mentioned, are actually interesting.
>>220040391I like the nurse Chansey Jesse backstory one
Giant pokemon
For me, it's Malamar.
>>220039003>Annihilape evolved from Primeape when the rage in its soul became too much for its physical form to contain; it gained increased power as a result of its spirit no longer being limited by the flesh. The evolution of Annihilape is said to occur when Primeape repeatedly uses Rage Fist multiple times with enough force to burst the blood vessels in its head.>become so angry you die but even death isn't an escape
>>220029362>does not get the girlmany such cases
>>220044015>To keep its pitch-black tail hidden, it lives quietly in the darkness.>In order to conceal its black tail, it lives in a dark cave and only moves about at night.>Wobbuffet does nothing but endure attacks - it won't attack on its own. However, it won't endure an attack on its tail. When that happens, the Pokémon will try to take the foe with it using Destiny Bond.>Usually docile, a Wobbuffet strikes back ferociously if its black tail is attacked.>It desperately tries to keep its black tail hidden. It is said to be proof the tail hides a secret.So the tail is the actual Pokemon, right?
>>220023763Go back to /a/
>>220033447When I was a kid I hated Team Rocket, but now theyre my favorite part of the show.
>>220041165never seen this rare episode air on TV only previews for it time to go watch it
>Cheating scum brings a Darkrai to a tournament>Ash outsmarts him and brings a Sleep Talk Heracross, hits it with a Megahorn and sets up Sceptile to defeat the Darkrai>The asshole pulls a Latios out of his asshole>Ash beats the Latios too, but has no Pokémon leftWhy did they need Ash to lose the Sinnoh league so badly?
>>220041165this was weird as hell, even when they were doing lots of strange one-off ideas.also Charmander was the 'loyal' one, is evolving into Charizard like going through puberty for the monsters...?
>>220038483
>>220024080He needed 10, like Gary
>>220029034Shut up faggot
>>220027649what even IS Mewtwo? what would touching him feel like?
>>220046665Like sand bottles
>>220030273this faggot wouldnt stand a chance against goro, I still love Machamp but im srs
>>220024200shudo was a petty bastard who was also responsible for them killing off minky momohe wanted the anime to end with a pokémon revolution
>>220033447Prepare for trouble, and make it doublenigger.
>>220041165great episode
>>220034510>SeadraChange Butterfree for another psychic pokemon (preferrably Alakazam if you can) and Seadra for Tentacruel and you have yourself a good team
I was listening to pokemon openings and you fuckers need to realize johto had the best ones
>>220044752 never watched up to this point, how does that nigga have a Darkrai? how did he catch it? where do they naturally live?
>>220041165BasedSquirtle and Bulbasaur had a great relationship
this thread reminds me how every 2 years I spend like 6 hours on /vp/ autistically
>>220046665Fine fur, like crushed velvet that's meant to be rubbed one way. Same for Mew and Espeon.
>>220038483Leaks confirm that he's autistic and depressed (and based on Brad Pitt in 12 Monkeys)
>>220031723Is it that easy?
>>220041869Because it looks cool and they're grandfathered in since they were known for using it before the phys/special split.>>220047453Come back and discuss pokemen with us
>>220047539no, it's implied that none (0) of the characters in Lord of the Flies fucked one another, and that feels more true-to-life than anon's little fantasy.
why do the monsters say their own names in the cartoon?
>>220047584>a group of young boys in this other fictional story didn't have gay orgies so it's impossible that ash and misty ever fooled aroundWhat are you talking about retard?
>>220023763He had a faggot for a trainer. I wouldn't have listened to him either.
>>220047663why ask a question you just answered? you summarised my point perfectly.
>>220023763I thought Ash being a loser was an okay premise for a season or two, since there was a lot of room for growth and all that. Instead, they not only they kept him retarded and weak, he was confined to being a little boy for the whole thing. Shit's retarded beyond measure
>>220047584theyre all boys retard, its not natural for men to desire each other
>>220041165My dad watched this with me when it aired like 25 years ago or whatever, and still to this day, when something reminds him of pokemon, he teases me going "charmander char char charmander" in a high pitched voice and cracks himself up.
>>220047855Based dad putting you in your place
>>220047831Ash and Brock repeatedly say Misty is boyish.it's like when people ask:>none of the soldiers fucked Joan of Arc? yeah, right!some jailors tried, but she kicked them in the balls with her bull legs.reading between the lines, it's obvious she was a hideous bulldyke and note some cutesy uwu tomboy.Misty, in-universe, is of no interest to them. if you're a coomer, think of it like a porn category you cannot fap to.
is there anywhere to stream the full series?
>>220047943A boyish girl is still more of a girl than the girliest boy, factually speaking
>>220047968The Internet, of course
>>220047855i havent heard my dad do a high pitched voice more than like 4 times in my life, he has a very deep tone but he also doesn't bother trying
>>220047428>where do they naturally live?Dreams.
>>220047968Jynx is so offputting even looking past the blackface accusation thing.
>>220047968they just had it all on the official Pokemon website for a while, which was nice (might have had ads, adblocker worked fine). looks like that's gone now.https://www.pokeflix.tv/this has 'em all, decent enough quality etc.
>>220041869>Ash's Snorlax uses Hyper Beam>shoots two of them out of its fucking eyes
>>220023763He didn't have a problem, he was coaching Ash up
>>220024140Brock saved Charmander
>>220047968Netflix in Canada has almost all of pokemon. Just set your VPN to Canada.
>>220047057Do you know how low-level mortal kombat lore is by video game standards?
>>220047428He's a walking plot device, existing only to defeat Ash. There is no explanation for anything about him. He might be Arceus coming down from the heavens to troll Ash for all we know.
>>220027841Puberty’s a bitch.
>>220029839Dunno if he haaaated Ash, he rolls up to every squabble Ash gets in when he really needs him.
>>220024489This artist is so shitty, I hate how he draws every woman's face like a crumpled cloth.
>>220048418Genuinely terrible gen 1 design
ash was a shit pokemon trainer. most of his badges were "earned" from being a good person and not winning the battles
>>220024411Carlos!
>>220033447I have no idea what team rocket was like in the original japanese version, but in the english localization their dialogue is chiseled form marble. every single line is packed with wordplay and comedy.
>>220034510venasaur was so bad in the original games. they fixed him up for FRLG but they did him dirty in RBY. they gave charizard and blastoise awesome moves and let them learn a bunch of TMS and HMs and gave venasaur razor leaf and body slam.
>>220047584nigga, what the fuck lmao
>>220031723Brock would cuck Ash
>>220052541The had them appear less while making them more competent (even getting rid of Wobbuffet) during the Black and White era, but the Jap audience apparently complained about that, so they got reverted for the next era.
>>220027649Fighting jobs to psychic, nigga, you should know that by know. That's how Sabrina got prime real state.
>>220024022Fpbp
>best character in the franchise>best arc in the franchise>best design in the franchise>worst TV adaptation What gives?
>>220048603Snorlax trained at Ryozanpaku
>>220029917I don't keep tabs on every tranny on Earth.
>>220024489You now remember that early running gag of random women thinking Ash was their son.
>>220052584>toxic and leech seed comboGGS EZ WP NO RE
>>220024080Not enough.
>>220047968a lot of it is on youtube
>>220055738this doesnt work on any of the pokemon venusaur would struggle on, such as other poisons types, which there is a lot of in gen 1.
>>220041869um ACKSHUALLY from generations 1 to 3, hyperbeam was a physical attack
>>220056579>do the combo>Swap venasaur out>gen 1 and 3 AI too stupid to heal
>>220034799I love team rocket, but they could have let some episodes just be without them. Off the top of my head, Mt.Moon could have been cool to just explore the area and pokemons origins. Ironic in that you fight team rocket there in the games. The challenge of the adventure could have been the obstacle. Im for a little less team rocket would have made the show better.
>>220056608What are you doing the combo too that it's not just faster to razor leaf it down? What's tanky that can be poisoned?
>>220056736Annoying shit like Dragonite and depending on which version of the game Blue's Alakazam.
this episode NOT appearing in pokemon actually traumatized me. Where the fuck did ash just get 30 tauros?! I had seen EVERY episode, I was being gaslight.
>>220056807Based Meowth with the Hitler stache too,
>>220054973Love this semen demon. The dead inside eyes are fire if the artist does it right. I like to imagine his self esteem is so low they will do ANYTHING.
>Used to remember Ash vs Gary as the most epic fight in Pokemon anime history as a kid>Rewatched it as a kid>Almost all of the match-ups were basically oneshots>Ash brought jobbers like Tauros and Bayleef in the most important fight of his life>Supposed genius trainer Gary Oak assembled a team of which 4 Pokemon out of six could be oneshotted by a single Earthquake moveI should had kept my childhood memories untouched
>>220057249Ash vs Paul in the Sinnoh league was a lot better.
>made the sleazy, conniving con artist a Mexicanwhat did they mean by this
>>220056807I actually got to see the episode when it aired, and I was super pissed how easily he caught the tauros when its a retarded catch rate in game.
>get catched>Never ever wandered with Ash>Has a generational prime Stone Cold-tier run in the Indigo League where he carried Ash in almost his victories>Refuses elaborare further>Remains for the rest of the saga writing poetry with Professor Oak
>>220057324>not wanting a Gyarados by the time you're about done with Cerulean City
They were going to let him win Kalos but changed their minds in the last second, right?
>>220057249this took forever to get to. I can't believe it aired in sept 2003, and mean while, in may 2004 yugi and kaiba had their battle city rematch. Pokemon was so padded.
>casually warps reality in your path
>>220057622As i kid i remember Jotho pretty much buck-breaked me with how dragget out it was. Pretty much abandoned the saga halfway and started watch again right before the Silver League started
>>220023763Imagine being peak Eddie Hall in a fighting tournament and your "manager" is a 10 year old asian boy who dropped out of grade school so he could yell at you to punch and kick and do back flips while you're fighting other gigabeasts.
>>220052584gen 1 razor leaf was an excellent move
>>220057665The irl mongoose (with gas mask), then becoming Venusaur and Blastoise who then fusing together like in DBZ to create Venustoise. How OP was this fucking thing?
>>220057349
>>220057249Tauros was fine, the only threat to it was Scizor.
Do people really killed themselves when they listened to Lavender Town theme or it just a meme
>>220057834It was supposedly a thing with red and green version using binaural audio which caused alot of jap kids to become suicidal as it fucked with their brainwave patterns or some shit. So the story goes.
>>220057741charizard was a chump, remember that episode where you find out he's just a manlet when around the other charizards
>>220057698Remember the GS ball?
>>220026367Charizard is the realistic tale of raising a child
>>220023763Pokemons are gay furry propaganda
>>220058023>GS ball storyline mothballed>GS ball event not available in Crystal version until years later on 3DSKinda sucked but at least Celebi (who was supposedly on the ball) got a movie instead.
>>220057809DELET THIS!
>>220032778>>220058203He appeared at the end, when Ash finally won the World Championship, together with the rest of Ashe's Pokémon.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhVPWbt7m-g
>>220057249>BayleefShe wanted to fuck Ash so bad.
For me, it's this edgy boi.
>>220023763Charizard lost his respect for Ash for a while but regained his respect for Ash later on.
>>220058338Which Final Fantasy character is this?
>>220058253>no raticatewow
>be me>play Pokemon rom hack games with my phone>"Oh my Arceus!"WTF?
>>220058054Nah that's Digimon
>>220058253Me as Tauros number 15.
>>220058338>betrays teammates>steal secret weapon>blows up base>refuses to elaborate>leaves
>>220056807Now you remember that James in a bikini episode
>>220041869Although the anime differentiates between physical and special attacks (rarely, mainly for the effects of counter/mirror coat), it doesn't differentiate between physical and special attackers. All pokémon in the anime are mixed attackers
