@@darklegend1145 Why hello there

Let’s hope Legends Z-A is peak

And vice versa for black and white

I know men

I love the games it’s just the story that’s kinda ass and a pretty bad villain

@@destroylonelyxkenkarsonlvu1783 Yea, the story of pokemon X&Y is bad but AZ and his pokemon floette backstory made me cry at the end of the game bro. FR T_T

But Kukui is like a adopted dad to Ash, Burnet even called Ash an older brother, when Ash met Lei (Kukui and Burnets son) kind of shows how she also considers Ash part of the family ^^

I mean with Kukui, technically speaking yeah he isn't a biological dad to Ash (cause if that was true I bet that would raise a lot of questions) but Kukui was more of a fatherly role to Ash and Brunette (Kukui's wife) sees him apart of the family and was willing to help him if he needs it

Even in one of the episodes when poipole drew the picture of 4 of them they called it the alolan family and when Ash was bidding farewell burnett was crying as to show how she will miss ash just like ashs real mother Also a great example can be that as pokemons have alolan forms ashs alolan form family is kukui burnett and lei 💀💀💀

I heavily disagree in the sub he is quite literally in the sub out here all do once his boy literally calling him his son everything they do is son and dad stuff it was very wholesome but not a fun uncle

He's a daddy

Xyz definitely solos. Ash’s character build was so great and the last few episodes were top tier. It was like a journey where everyone was slowly growing

xyz and D/P solo's sun and moon, its not an opinion its a fact

​@@Doggof2pbattle frontier negs all of them. Sceptile better

Facts fr

@BoxingisgoatedBoxingisgoated yes he was. In XYZ he was a leader guiding everyone and felt like he was becoming a true trainer. In and sun and moon he became so goofy

I just thought Ash was ugly lmao that's why I didn't watch it 😅

@@bestboy34 I agree he ugly af HOWEVER I DO LOVE THE REACTIONS 😂

i mean same like at first i didnt get it cause i was just 10 at that time but i rewatched it and it made me cry. the characters are so h̶o̶t̶- i mean nice and the series is just good overall.

@@jazzy_jelly lol

Invoked emotion without dialog.

@@jazzy_jelly what?

same with that one mallow episode its sooo god damn good i honestly wish we got to spend more time with her to make it even more impactful

Saddest and darkest. In some episodes, we get to see pokemon dying. Like the one where Ash was transported to the past and met a Trevenant and when he's back to the present time we get to see Trevenant's dead body. Most def die from old age. And then in the Minior eps, Sophocles saw a dying Minior right in front of him which triggered his PTSD because he already saw a dying Minior when he was younger. And probably the darkest one is when Ash got to a different universe where Alola has turned into a post apocalyptic country thanks to Guzzlord. They didn't show it but tons of people and pokemon most definitely died there during the invasion.

@@gdottothegamer1001That's not even going into Stoutland, who had multiple episodes where we got to know him before he passed away.

I think being the goofy series allowed the sad moments to hit harder, also having his non pikachu main pokemon backstory not being about being abandoned by his trainer helps

@@Quizzicalotl Exactly, yet ppl say the storytelling of Sun and Moon sucks

exactly. wut a phenomenal series

I only remember that 1 Malemar episode where they tried to end the world after that they ditched any inkay storyline. Their Pokemon in SM were so much more memorable and honestly amazing especially that 1 final duel with Mimikyue and Pikachu

I remember that it was a upside down squid💀

Meanwhile another mon made Ash lose pokemon League

Gigachad rowlet vs virgin charizard@@ChoosenJolteon

Honestly rowlet is perfection in the Pokemon galoe machine In Singapore one random rental rowlet I got did 3 crits killed 2 Blastoise (fights are all 2v2) and got me a masterball

Fr the disrespect from Rowlet was insane. Man fell asleep midmatch against a Pokémon at its final evolution and still won.

Honestly tho, Rowlet alone solos XYZ Ash’s team

That's a good point, true! ^^ Yeah, agreed!

I love shinx so I like your profile pic

Also good opion

Bro the first like 5 episodes of xy has this 💀, but every one has their opinion but urs is wrong

​@@Shravan-nc8pbYeah, the first freaking episodes. That series slowly just went to "Gotta just rematch and win."

The plane scene had everyone in tears 😭

I cried when stoutland, my favorite pokemon, was shown again with Mallow's episode. That whole backstory is insane, for both characters.

Between Stoutlant and Tapu Fini making everyone see their loved ones again, i was losing it lmao. And Team Skulls final appearance had me happy crying. Theyre my favorite team for a damn good reason and I still want them back XD

Thats so true dude

bro I grew up with sun and moon because I never watched pokemon before and that scene had me in tears..

Same

The biggest diservice the marketing for this show did was not showing the style in full use

Same!

Make a sense

pokemon journeys combined pokemon adventures with everyday stuff instead of gym battles

@@dk4kja8 True but it wasn’t as compelling to me especially when one of the main travel companions was A bit lackluster I mean Chloe Wasn’t really that compelling

@@Azzymar173 it was mainly goh tho and he was good idk why everyone hates him

@@dk4kja8 yeah but they did advertise Chloe as another travel companion and she didn’t start joining with them until like the series was half over

Oh I cried so much the final episode 😂

Same 🥲❤️

I'm glad I'm not the only one

Fr I agree bro

SAME I'm glad I'm not the only one that loved it

Well, I know I have, and it’s amazing.

Same

Same

As someone who watched the entire Sun/Moon anime, my opinion of it is mostly "there were too many food-eating scenes." Also, my BIGGEST gripe with the series was the atrocious choreography for the fight sequences. Generally, every high-stakes battle could be boiled down to, "Opposing Kahuna/Rival uses their Z-Move (an animation which takes 20 seconds to watch and was probably already re-used 5 times before to save budget), Ash/whoever survives it and does the exact same thing, GG battle over"

I saw all 3!

Facts

my bro here is speaking FACTS

i dont know if this is sarcasm or not but if it isnt its so bad that i stopped watching the anime out of cringe and took me 2 months to watch it again

@@keebymania0911 Dude it's a kids show what else did you expect?

@@jonaslangholm i mean yeah your right but my first ever pokemon anime i watched was x and y so when i finished it i thought the next anime would be yk mature as x and y

I was more sad about litten and stoutland

Olivia😢

hold up, lemme guess um Nico Olvia- Robin's mom Vinsmoke Sora- Sanji's mom and um well I'm sorry I haven't got too far in One Piece

​@@naymratkyaw3740 Bellemere Ussop's mother Portgas D. Rouge Big Mom

⁠@@ABlandNameThanks, I forgot Rouge. Correction: 8 then (Scarlet and Otohime. 9 if you count Ginny but she’s only in the mange so far)

Yeah the art style was different but it fit the more light hearted and more comedy focused show

same. the faces they make made me laugh many times

EXACTLY

Exactly this! It breathed the same kind of animation joy like Nichijou, Eizouken and One Punch Man to me, I loved to see the change

I prefer the original styles and always will. They turned Ash into Luffy! SMH

@@saberiandream316luffy? I thought ash turn into an uncle💀

ok i hear you but tbh its tied with XYZ

Here me out, ash Greninja, I do prefer XY and XYZ but this is a close 2nd

Bro, this is a show for kids, they don't need to see that or learn about that, pokemon is still a show for little people who haven't finished grade school, can't forget that, we may be adult ass nerds who geek out about this franchise cause we grew up with it, but we gotta remember we grew up with as kids, and this will be shown to kids in the future, yes the serious topics are nice spice up to the story and all but the main demographic of pokemon are little children who have yet to start first grade, so I don't know about all that death, pregnancy or stuff in that regard. I do think it's a much improvement on story, and characters than previous generations but heck we cannot forget that this show is for children lol.

@@crossifix2143 if the implementation of the themes of death, pregnancy, etc is done right then it might actually be better for kids. If its done in a respectful and understandable manner for little kids then exposing them to this for the sake of awareness wont end the world. Also a good 60% of the population of pokemon fans grew up with pokemon meaning the anime also needs to grow up in a way, of course the change doesnt have to be crazy but showing a bit of maturity shows that the anime can grow. Of course i can see how tackling these themes for a kids show can be bad because if its done wrongly then it might skew what the kid thinks it means vs what it actually means.

@@HydrogenElfin2 wdym "what"? What they said made perfect sense and if you wanna argue with them you may as well make an actual argument.

Also I watched both this show and xyz but I was satisfied bc I had already watched a ton of other Pokémon shows and was used to whole storylines being dropped after specific shows ended

It wasn’t my childhood but it also was when I started watching Pokémon for the first time so then I just watched the past series to get the whole story in all honesty I don’t understand on why a lot of people hate it’s an actual good series and I also memorized all the theme songs because I watched it multiple times So I think it should be hated less also just remen that like one frame of this is just one millisecond pretty much so they used alot of time making this I remember when I was dying of being impatient for the next series to come out lol But in all honesty The Pokémon Sun and moon is amazing.

@@spectra_the_drago alolan was your childhood ?

@@SL33py45H yussss I rlly enjoyed it more than the other series >:D (although indigo league was rlly good too and I’m pretty sure the first Pokémon show I watched lol)

Fr MEE TOOO!!!!!

Yeah a lot of people hated Sun and Moon just blindly. I mean I also loved XY and XYZ, but Sun and Moon is also great. And as a fan who actually watched every episode of the anime, Sun and Moon is such a breath of fresh air. Back when XY/Z aired new I thought it was cool how so many people now watch the anime, cause before a lot of fans didn't even like the anime, XY brought many fans to the show cause it acted so mature, but that also made Ash a bit less Ash, he kind of lost his goofy side and was sometimes too serious in XY, so it was nice that Ash got his goofy side back in Sun and Moon. But then a lot of people that liked XY/Z started to hate on how Ash acts so childish, evnthough that was actually always part of his character, too. And I think it's actually cool, cause it makes him becoming serious even more special. And I also noticed how a lot of XY fans started to complain that Ash got reset again and isn't strong anymore, which really shows that these people didn't really watch SM, cause you can see how skilled Ash still is in battles and some of his Pokemon are training a lot at the beach, so no wonder they are strong if they train daily ^^

So you didn't notice toxic behaviour from time of b&w or when may replaced misty?

@@jjojon7072 I wasn’t really on online forums or engaged with the anime community when May first joined, though BW was more of a problem with the generation as a whole than just the anime

@@Zistheone2 Point is the fandom will always be toxic over things, it didn't start 'getting' anything with s&m.

​@@jjojon7072The point is since the Pokemon anime got so popular during XY/Z there were more people overall in the Pokemon anime fandom which also lead to more toxic people. Before there were simply not that many people watching the anime, so sure there were a few people that complained about a few things (anime related), but they just dropped the anime and didn't feel the need to hate on it as much as the toxic people during Sun and Moon, which I'm sure also affected other people in thinking that Sun and Moon isn't good, without them even trying. So yeah it got worse anime wise after XYZ ended and Sun and Moon started, simply because there were way more people and overall more people on the internet than before when the other changes before took place. And the people that complained about Misty being replaced, the BW anime being a soft reboot, etc. were not as "toxic"/persistent about it as the haters of the Sun and Moon anime (at least in my experience). The worst toxic Pokemon fans back then were really the Gen 5 games haters, but at the same time a lot of people suddenly thought they were too old for Pokemon and stopped playing it, so they didn't feel the need to be toxic about the changes, since they thought Pokemon was childish. Overall a lot of teens in that time thought Pokemon was childish and you would get bullied in school for liking Pokemon.... So yeah it was propably not as popular for too many toxic people to assemble as in Sun and Moons era. I've been a Pokemon fan for a long time already and on the internet for a while, so I can talk from experience about this, so it's really true that it got worse with the toxic amount of people (which I think is also thanks to Pokemon overall getting more popular XD) But yeah, there were always people that complained in the Pokemon fandom, that's in every fandom, but that doesn't mean that it's sometimes not worse than before ^^'' If you had other experinces, that are different from mine, feel free to share them.

Pokemon doesn't have filler though

@@natalimoina if an episode introduces a character or location that only appears that episode, and if the story doesn’t have a significant relevance to Ash or his friend’s significant growth, than the episode is considered a filler.

@@LucarioShirona Cries about Larvitar Arc!!!

@@darkdragon7210sadly...

easily half of the episodes in diamond and pearl were filler. I only watched gym leaders, pokemon evolutions, the team plasma stuff, and rival battles, the rest i ignored until the champion. I still didnt miss anything important by the time the show was over. @@LucarioShirona

Yioooooo

Ironic since the people who care about animation and direction skew older and were praising Sun and Moon. And got dang that Litten episode is one of most mature storytelling in the entire franchise.

Personally, for me, it took me a while to get used to the different art style of Sun and Moon, but I love how they legit made him look like a ten-year-old!! Not that the older series didn't do that, but as a RotTMNT fan, I agree with how Rise presents as a goofy comedic follow-up to a previous installment, but it does have some serious moments!

RotTMNT is a funny one because these days I mostly see praise for it and people unhappy with how it was handled, but unlike SM and RotTMNT, I thought TTG deserved the hate it got

Me too It’s so sad

The episodd where ash got transported to an alternate dimension where slola was in ruins do to guzzlord

@@thefinaldasher oo yeah. There has to be tons of dead people and pokemon under those rubble

For me, so far nothing has beaten Diamond and Pearl but Sun and Moon is really good IMO minus the school episodes.

@@fatesblade7171 Diamond and Pearl is no. 2 for me

Me too I didn't mind the goofy animations

DIAMOND AND PEARL IS YOUR FAVOURITE SERIES

@@Ultra-Active it was until I watched Sun and Moon

@your_local_galaxy_. use animesaturn it may have some ads at the start but then it sends u in another part where it has no ads

So relatable (before u say I’m biased I’ve watched both seasons)

@@R44F1 ey, ive also watched both, if your biased im biased

⁠@@DawningMoonif your biased and he’s biased, I’m biased

​@@JblbluetoothhIf all of you are biased, then i'm biased too

Same if I hadn’t clicked on it on Netflix one day, I probably would’ve never been into Pokémon

Sun/moon was a fun change of pace because after many near death experiences why wouldn't he just chill on vacation Journeys was not a fun change of pace because it didn't feel like it respected what came before,and it feels like ash only advances because the plot demands it

You are so right and wrong at the same time Sm was great Jn Was garbage

@@LycanMOON Originally I did not like sm series because chilling on vacation after losing to Alain and releasing Greninja put bitter taste in my mouth. But I later realized that Alola gave Ash what he missed in previous adventures. Journeys Ash was fusion of XY and SM Ash, which eventually made him on par with other champions.

disagree jn was fine@@LycanMOON

bad take every series is like that journies was great and actually had a good companion in go who actually developed. with more side charactersa and side plot lines ash @@LycanMOON

BRO FR

EXACTLY

You know it why ash catch for once

I meant every female character that followed ash who catch a eevee

No he's Ash's rival

That what I'm saying bro why couldn't Ash catch one

Ikr???? He's one of the coolest characters! And his Inferno Overdrive's Choreography is one of the greatest thing in his characters imo!
