Just watched the first few pokemon episodes.

***The Doctor*** · 08-17-2010, 11:55 AM

What happened to Jessie and James in the Second episode....they....they...they were awesomely bad-asses!!!

Oh and Ash was really harsh to Pika in the first episode.

Also how freakin big is Viridian City. Ash gets to the outskirts of the town in the Morn? Gets to the Pokemon Centre at nighttime....WTF!!

that's nothing, me and a couple friends watched all the pokemon movies a while ago.

MeowMan · 08-17-2010, 01:25 PM

Ash has had Pikachu for a long time by now, but didn't in the first few episodes. Meanwhile, Team Rocket continuosly replaces the Pokemon in their team. Pikachu has to be a pretty high level by now, and Team Rocket's all start out pretty low.

Robotazy · 08-17-2010, 03:52 PM

They got defeated by a Caterpie in the episode after that.

Team Rocket went from serious villain to comic relief, the same way that Brock went from big-brother/father figure to comic relief

***The Doctor*** · 08-18-2010, 11:56 AM

^ Yeah, Brock went even quicker.....it kinda sucks. (Rocket took about three episodes. Brock took two.)

***Ace Mercury*** · 08-18-2010, 12:04 PM

Did Misty ever get her bike back? It's almost like she's following him around because she likes him or something.

The Spark · 08-18-2010, 01:17 PM

I always liked Pokemon a bit better than Yu-Gi-Oh, because at least there was some comic relief. Yu-Gi-Oh was all super serious all the time. Plus, Yugi was kind of a *****, letting Yu-Gi-Oh do all of the work for him.

***CaptHayfever*** · 08-18-2010, 05:28 PM

^Who's Yu-Gi-Oh?

And remember, "Hey, big Yugi, has little Yugi been cheatin' this whole time?"

The Spark · 08-18-2010, 07:22 PM

Isn't that the bigger Yugi's name? I dunno, I can never remember.

The Spark · 08-18-2010, 07:56 PM

Oh. So it was never revealed until the end? Oh yeah, they always referred to him as "Pharaoh", huh.

**Marchie** · 08-18-2010, 08:55 PM

Or Yami works too.

Yeah, in her farewell episode she did.

I hope thi wasn't a sarcastic question, else I'll feel dumb for answering

***CaptHayfever*** · 08-18-2010, 11:33 PM

^It was both; you're fine.

His name was the password to unlocking the super-zeo-ultrazord & one-hit-killing the bad guy (seriously); his inability to remember his name was a plot point.

And remember, "I'd-a like to take a minute--just sit down, James; I'll-a tell you how I-a became the undisputed king of card games!"

The Spark · 08-18-2010, 11:42 PM

I need to find a way to re-watch them some time. Those and the Pokemon episodes.

Vgfian · 08-19-2010, 02:11 AM

^Same here. Last I checked though, it was hard to find Y-G-O! affordably on DVD online, and I can't download anything really easily on my comp, so I'm stuck with it. Good luck on your search tho.

I actually have almost the entire first couple of seasons on cassette of Pokemon though. They were gotten either by purchasing many over long periods of time, or as gifts. Funnily enough, even though I didn't know it right away at the time, the first real episode I saw was actually the first episode on cassette.

On subject, yes BA disinigration was sad.

***The Doctor*** · 08-19-2010, 12:00 PM

^^ Currently watching them through youtube (Pokes, not YGO)
