What the hell happened?
notice a pattern?
>>59285956Anime was sanitized to hell and back. Johto began the process, Hoenn nearly completed it, and Sinnoh took any remaining charm and erased it
>>59285956Shudo doing a passion project vs corporate slop made to rake in cash from children and autists with no standards.
>>59285979At some point they're gonna retcon the baby kangaskhan as "The small one resides in the big one's pouch, acting like its child. Researchers cannot verify their actual relationship, however."
>>59285956DP Ash was still Ash, BW and onwards was the soulless battle faggot Ash
>>59286141>DP Ash was still AshNope, fuck off. He already lacked any personality by then. Just because you grew up with this series doesn't mean you get to pretend it's part of the "classic era"
>>59285956DP was all about battles though. It lost most of the charm of the early anime, true, but honestly DP was the one time both characters and pokemon developments felt interesting to follow.Than it came BW, removed that one good thing about DP, rebooted Ash and made a souless slop version of the first season. Then XY that was just a worse DP.And then SM when it was a different show altogether.
>>59285956>>59286093>>59286166Rewatching OS Anipoke and Ash felt a lot more human in those episodes. He could fawn over girls, he could be a bit of a jerk...overall quite believable as a "asshole who still had a heart when push comes to shove" kind of ten year old.
>>59286141>>59286173>BW out of nowhereIt was a series full of soul. Iris >>>>>>> Misty
Flanderization
>>59285979The should have just given Miltank a pre-evo and had it split between Miltank and Tauros I don't know why that hasn't happened yet
>>59286327Indigo League is the only one with a soul. Cope
>>59286526>lead girl carrying an egg for 200 episodes taking away her hands from doing anything else>>>""soul""
>>59285956They made Ash too much into a "Goku if he was a trainer".
>>59286533>200 episodesIndigo League had the fastest pacing and was only 81 episodes. Togepi's appearance in Indigo League didn't take space as it did later on and only debuted to promote Gen II.
>>59286327You wouldn't be saying this if you weren't a race traitor who wants to fuck a brown loli voiced by Aoi Yuuki
>>59285956OS Ash wasn't written as a character who would be around for over 20 years, with a character arc and story that had a general beginning and end point realized.DP Ash was written as a character who was going to last indefinitely, a defined beginning with an impossible ending, just like how Detective Conan can never.defeat the Black Organization that turned him into a child and tried to kill him.
>>59285979>>59286125It's localization censorship, not a retcon. The Japanese entry was never changed and always said 子供が 生まれたときに

>>59286699>asking the oroboros robotim sorry your mom took tylenol when she had you.
>>59286713I just threw it in there because you retards can't read nip. The translation it provided is accurate.
Only Indigo League and Orange Islands is a "real" anime.After that, Jewtendo knew the gold mine they had, so they sanded off all the edge until it was soulless and Westernized enough to air in a literal preschoolNo more sex innuendos. No more guns. No more large breasted women like Lorelei. No more funny jokes like James with implants or Jynx kissing people witbout consent. No more SOVLPokemon anime is just a vehicle to shill their own merchandise now. Safe and corporate to appease the shareholders. Like others have said, Ash has long since become a "generic hero" caricatureImagine watching that shit after Orange Islands lol
>>59286713you might benefit from consulting the big scary ouroboros robot to help you learn to spell words, even the ones you dont understand
>>59287041Honestly most of that was sandpapered off as early as the post porygon episode.
Ash changes personality every series>OriginalBratty Kid>Advance and DPOlder Brother>BWInexperienced Rookie>XYShonen Hero>Sun&MoonGoofball>JourneysSelfless paragon
>>59287752SM was a mistake.
>>59287845It was the sole bright spot from the end of gen IV
>>59287845>The one time the anime decided to have a personality since the Shudo days was a mistake
>>59287967Yes
