1:27 “he’s far more advanced” As you can see the quote shows that the character “Ash” from the Pokémon Advanced anime series is stronger and a better trainer then how he was in the original series “Pokémon” (released in 1997).

@KeyboardKlutz_0 3 года назад

Just a side note, but this series actually confirms that Ash being 10 forever is nothing more than a gag from the developers, because during his training for the final fight against Brandon, he says to his Kanto starters "After all these years." He says years, as in plural, meaning by this point he has been on a journey for at least 2-3 years, which confirms that he does in fact age and that the narrator is just joking with us now.

@denniswilliams6519 3 года назад

After Johto felt like Pokemon going through the motions, Advanced Generation felt like a breath of fresh air with new concepts actually showing skill with Ash and one of his companions being given an actual goal to strive for in May. The lack of a true rival for Ash, the underwhelming villain stuff, Brock becoming more static and Max being obnoxious keep it from being higher than it should be. Feel D&P was Advanced Generation but improved in all areas and X&Y would do the child companion right in Bonnie.

@ashhabimran239 10 дней назад

Got a hot take and opposite opinion: Bonnie was an insufferable annoying brat, Max was mostly tolerable (even without comparing to Bonnie)

@jeffhirsh5722 3 года назад

it was also hilarious whenever someone stole May's food. i think she was more comedic when angry than Misty was. please don't hate me but i honestly liked May way more than Misty. Misty just constantly abused Ash and Brock so let's just say she is no where near my favorite female companion, i don't hate her i just feel she's overrated.

@anothergamer112 3 года назад

Misty was another instance of the 90s effort to make female characters not super girly by going in the complete opposite direction by being straight up mean and exaggeratedly tomboyish. Its still a thing now, but not nearly as bad as these kinds of characters come across as somewhat less cynical and not abusive.

@mrzed385 3 года назад

I almost stopped watching pokemon after the original trio separated. But I gave it a try and really love it. The contest thing was something new. May had a goal and a great character development. And I like Max don't know why people hate him. And of course Brock. Only negative point is that it didn't noticed properly on Ash that much, lack of rivals, but his pokemon were great. And of course the best was Battle Frontier which provided homage to Ash's old pokemon. Eagerly waiting for this and of course my favourite sinnoh region

@RaidPirateGaming 3 года назад

I like Max too. And I definitely loved May's character development. To not liking Pokemon, to not knowing what she wanted to do, to discovering Pokemon contests and progressively become a better coordinator. She's definitely one of the most overlooked characters. I enjoy her more than Dawn.

@mrzed385 3 года назад

@@RaidPirateGaming yeah I like dawn more though but I agree with your point

@JakeSmith-mq5dc 3 года назад

@@RaidPirateGaming Yeah, I remember I was just as invested in May's journey as Ash's, so Dawn replacing her felt to me felt like what Tracey replacing Brock must've felt to everyone else. Sinnoh lasted a longer than most other series, so I got used to Dawn, even grew to like her a lot, but still preferred May and her team over Dawn's.

@JakeSmith-mq5dc 3 года назад

A part of me always loved how we now had 4 traveling companions so episodes could split focus on subsections of the group 4 ways and in different combinations, like Ash and Max are more into battling and exploring Pokemon while May and Brock are more into shopping and exploring tourist attractions. Yes, I found Max annoying, but I didn't mind it because little kids are annoying. I could even relate to his struggles a bit back then even though he really should've had his own Pokemon, at least in the Battle Frontier. Or imagine if Max returned in ORAS and completely took Sawyer's role as the analytical trainer who adopted Ash's battle style by literally following in his footsteps. I so would've been down for more Max as the series continued.

@DragonForceBackup 3 года назад

@@JakeSmith-mq5dc Pretty much the reason I was fine with Max. It’s too be expected XD. Bonnie was less bratty sure, but girls do tend to mature faster than boys for the most part. And even then she still had her bratty moments too. That said, I do get the frustration people have with him stealing the badge. That was definitely his worst moment.

@jbcatz5 3 года назад

A definite negative is the complete lack of rivals for Ash. Yes, Advanced Battle introduces Morrison but the Hoenn League is right around the corner and Tyson is another rival who is introduced at the start of the League. Because of the format the Battle Frontier didn’t have rivals, but because it was only a season long and also had May doing Kanto contests the filler was very cut down. A big positive is that Ash really steps up his game, going out of his way to teach his team members new moves based on what he sees other Pokemon using (Iron Tail and Bullet Seed) or honing less controllable techniques like Snorunt’s Ice Beam. He also asked for a rematch with Wattson since their original battle was so one-sided in Ash’s favour due to circumstances, something he’d never have done during the Indigo League.

It's more of the decrease in quality with the script writing that bothers me. I mostly watched XY in japanese because of the Ash/Greninja theme and I could take the Japanese performance overall more seriously. This is because these VAs are the ones from the beginning and it shows. Mewtwo original voice returning in Japanese makes me a little envious because we likely will never get the same experience.

AG introduced to us the Double Battles ♥️ And it also had the most amazing title songs ♥️

@darkstorm2579 Год назад

Actually, the very first double battle happened in the Orange Islands when Ash fought against the fourth member of the Orange Crew. Granted the rules were a bit different as Ash would have lost if even one of his two Pokémon (Pikachu and Charizard) lost, and I don’t think double battles returned until the Advanced Saga where they used the rules we’re more familiar with.

Totally agree that this is an extremely underrated series! Still my favorite to this day. One thing that I noticed while watching this is just how good it was setting up why I think it's perfect:the fact that they made both Ash and May lose to their og rival at the end of the series. It sets up for how much we see them evolve as trainers in their fields in the next series which only adds to "advancing".

To add details about that infamous episode (S7 E30 Balance Of Power): While Max’s crying over his father losing to Ash veers into wangst-territory due to him overreacting, his Broken Pedestal can come off as tear jerking. Max seen his father as his idol, someone who is perfect and can never lose or make mistakes. Seeing his father lose and not showing any sadness about it must have triggered Max into getting upset and taking Ash’s badge away, due to being in denial of his father losing. *This also may be the implied reason as to why Norman doesn’t allow his kids to watch his gym battle.* Thankfully, everyone gets Max to face reality and realize that losing is a part of being a gym leader.

Another awesome review dude! AG was actually the first one I fully got into as a kid so I remember it fondly, I joined the anime gang halfway through johto so I didn’t have much time with it compared to AG. Solid points all around when I look back on the series, even though I love it a ton, really wish Ash’s rivals had more shine especially. Hell I still think Morrison especially would be better if he had more screen time, it’d make the whole “not wanting to fight ash” that he did at the beginning of their battle more special. All in all it’s still definitely a great series

Those three episodes were great, and made me hooked on Sceptile even to this day.

@zeospark9715 3 года назад

Honestly, I did wanted to just punch Ash for how he was behaving toward Brawley. Like the dude probably has gym battles a lot and just wanted to relax by surfing especially considering Dewford is pretty much 50% beach. However, Ash just kept acting so impatient toward Brawley and demanded a battle from him and, when he gets it, gets DESTROYED! Obviously, they were going for a "polar opposite" approach there where one is nice, calm, and patient while the other is mean, aggressive, and impatient. I'm glad they dropped Ash being impatient for Gym Battles as of D/P where there are times where Ash doesn't mind waiting more for gym battles and finds something else to do in the meantime (like the tag battle thing for the Hearthome badge or going to Dawn's Grand Festival after Team Rocket screwed his chances for his 8th badge at the time)

@pokemonchampion4826 3 года назад

Although, one thing I also pick up on was the dub and translation problems the anime has. I am chilean, and furder more, I studied english to spanish translation for the last 3 years. I rewatched the anime in latinamerican spanish and oh boy somethings are just like the dubbing study didn't have the resorces or the people because my god. I can always try to watch the thing in english though. And for those wandering, yeah, I'm actually blind and I don't know japanese, so no original language for me this time.
