Gengar's there tho. Isn't he the Hunter he once got to fight Sabrina? >tfw I still recall that the anime portrayed ghost-types as having an advantage over psychic types and this wasn't in the games
Nerd here. Game Freak actually programmed Ghost as not very effective against Psychic in the originals, and I think by mistake too. Doesn't help that the only ghosts then were part Poison.
They backpedalled in the next games to actually nerf Psychic.
>portrayed ghost-types as having an advantage over psychic types and this wasn't in the games
That pissed 10yo me off to no end, even in Silver/Gold Alakazam was pretty invincible.
every new series he leaves his team and starts over with just the rat
Digimon better
I never watched all of it but the season where the kids become the digimon was refreshing because they kept getting btfo trying to protect some towers or some shit from two knights. it was nice to see the good side take heavy losses for once. >mfw shikakumon
that was such a disappointment for little me. I thought Angel + dragon was going to be some awesome shit. yeah yeah dogu whatever.
>couldn't make it in kanto >goes to statpad in the orange islands >continues to fail in every region until he can worthlessly statpad again in babby mode kalos
fraud, not my GOAT
If only because its designs are usually really good. Every single anime series is a flop, and I say this as someone who's watched all of them so far. >BUT MUH TAMERS
Tamers is edgy garbage and its writer is literally sargon of akkad tier moronic boomer who doesn't know what the word nuance means and thinks edgy = good.
It that the dude that had the legendary ghost pokemon or some shit like that? kek they really jumped the shark having one of the ash's rivals use a legendary.
Dawn basically became a semi-recurring character in the new season, and was the only one of Ash’s previous companions to actually come and root for him in person (Iris doesn’t count that b***h just fricking abandoned him early). Serena meanwhile only came back for one episode, only talked with Ash for like 30 seconds, and only saw the final on tv. Dawn won.
>Ash got compared with Messi after they both lost the Kalos league and Copa América 2016 respectively >Ash won the Alola league and Messi win the Copa América soon after >Now Ash has won the literal pokemon World Cup and Messi will be playing the football World Cup on a week
QATAR 2022
Jesus christ. Finally won, almost 3 decades later being a 10 something year old. Now i need to start some romhack and name the trainer Guardiola and name pkm with City players
And what the hell is that pokemon on the top left?
Dracovish. fr, the history behind the design is that back in the 18th and 19th centuries, when people were first discovering dinosaur bones and putting together fossils, a lot of mistakes were made; taking bones from one creature and combining them with another to create erroneous creatures. In the game, the scientist in the region is an idiot that combines fossils in this way to create erroneous pokemon. Dracovish is basically a pleiosaur with the head of an extinct fish.
Too bad they only started to let him win when the show became uglier and made for an even younger audience. Look at that awful character design of his.
I decided to start a new save on Radical Red romhack. The theme is that I can only use pokemon with kicking attacks. I named myself Gareth and the rival is Maguire. Took Scorbunny as the starter.
seriously man what the frick, even gengar is bigger than him, he was supposed to be this huge fricking overpowered dragon that was a pain the ass to obtain
was the orange island championship filler then? That was a great frickin match. Ash throwing shit out there without regards to type is exactly how I would've played the games if it weren't for the strategy guides.
wait a sec
a tournament created so that the losers of previous tournaments could get another shot at winning something...
ash won the nations league of pokemon.
LOL
>No Kingler >No Haunter >No Tauros >Fuk Muk
Butterfree instead of the pokemon he traded away and then released anyway.
Also this shows Pikachi doesnt give a shit about any of the current mons on Ash's team.
>No charizard
SOULLESS
Most overrated mon
Ash's is properly rated
Charizard choked in the final match
charizard cuckitini
>losing to fricking Paras
WTF IS THIS REAL?
wans't paras water type?
Bug grass
>theres people who post on this board who genuinely dont know pokemons typings that have existed since the inception of the franchise
blame the coach not the player Ash didn't know what to do with the talent he literally couldn't get his star player to listen to him
>"I can`t win"
Kek. Post this on /vp/.
scrubs_where-do-you-think-we-are.mp4
Thanks for the updated version, Anon.
Have a bowl of soup.
It's Charizard-flavored.
Why would you serve shit flavored soup, anon?
did they retire all his old school pokemons, apart from pikachu, over the years?
Gengar's there tho. Isn't he the Hunter he once got to fight Sabrina?

6 years old me was very confused when he played Yellow.
>portrayed ghost-types as having an advantage over psychic types and this wasn't in the games

No. This is a gengar that was abandoned by it's owner which grew attached to ash.

Digimon better
The ps vita digemon games are weirdly great
Like smt spinoffs
LET'S KICK IT UP

>BUT MUH TAMERS
Tamers is edgy garbage and its writer is literally sargon of akkad tier moronic boomer who doesn't know what the word nuance means and thinks edgy = good.
Nah, Tamers is kino, you're just an unironic homosexual.
the Kanto jobber is terrified of the Sinnoh CHAMP
That's not Cynthia.
she's only a champ in the games I think
he's a fricking cheater, probably had deoxys or heatran as his other party members
he's playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers
It that the dude that had the legendary ghost pokemon or some shit like that? kek they really jumped the shark having one of the ash's rivals use a legendary.
>one of the ash's rivals
He was just some guy who showed up to the league
No season past Sinnoh has actually happened. Ash has been trapped in Darkrai's Dark Void all this time.
>Best girl won the Ashb owl too
Liar
Serena blew a 3-1 lead
Wait, really? Last time I watched Pokemon Serena kissed Ash, but that was like 5 years ago
Dawn basically became a semi-recurring character in the new season, and was the only one of Ash’s previous companions to actually come and root for him in person (Iris doesn’t count that b***h just fricking abandoned him early). Serena meanwhile only came back for one episode, only talked with Ash for like 30 seconds, and only saw the final on tv. Dawn won.

Does this ever work?
The homosexual has been spamming that all year, so clearly not.

It's literally and unironically happening.
It's fricking happening Messibros
it's happening
High on copium
PECHOFRIO
REMINDER THAT BONGS LOST A FINAL AGAIN HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
can’t believe it he has done it the madman
Is pikachu the Maradona of Pokemons?
>he won
Jesus christ. Finally won, almost 3 decades later being a 10 something year old. Now i need to start some romhack and name the trainer Guardiola and name pkm with City players
And what the hell is that pokemon on the top left?
Pikachu is Neymar
What the frick is that thing on the left.

my waifu
A farfetchd with a sword and shield
pokemon is a sport now? based, i'm gonna get back into it without feeling shame for being a nerd
Pokemon showdown, anon
You don't even have to buy the games
for me, it's romhacks
I hate showdown, shit just makes me end up making teams reacting directly to my opponents
I only recognize Gengar Dragonite and Pikachu
Too bad they only started to let him win when the show became uglier and made for an even younger audience. Look at that awful character design of his.
ASH KETCHUP: Amazon PRIME
He was a KWAB ass b***h throughout my entire childhood and decides to put his act together now that I'm a grown man. Frick him. I'm not apologizing.
Luv 1st Gen
Luv me Game Boy
Luv me Kanto
'ate zoomer pokemons
'ate new regions
'ate new consoles
Simple as
holy mother of soulless animation
I decided to start a new save on Radical Red romhack. The theme is that I can only use pokemon with kicking attacks. I named myself Gareth and the rival is Maguire. Took Scorbunny as the starter.
First reply names my Scorbunny.
Sir Maguire
nvm i just fully read your post and saw that you named your rival Maguire lol
Sir Maguire was too long anyway. This works though.
How long will it take them to add the gen 9 mons? I refuse to start another playtrough until i can use kingambit
It has been an hard journey full of ups and downs, but the prize is very close, just wait
this is the real GOAT
tsuuuuuuuuuu
TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
kek
TSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
so did he end up getting with Misty or not
nope, if anything it looks like he’ll end up with Dawn
#it'scominghome
ez
If Ash can finally be world champion after all these years… you know what this means, right Mexibros?
it means england brings it home, mexibros, we did it!
The british character lost anon, it’s over
For me it's Pokemon Prism.
For me, it's Pokemon AshGray
For me it's FR randomisers
I'm gonna go and play platinum now.
Bye boomers
>Cartoon teaching kids about drive and friendship
they don't make em like they used to
Everyone need a friend like Dawn supporting you everytime you need it
Kino for me, as the only Pokemon game I ever played was Diamond
hi every Ian eagle, charles davis, and tonight ash ketchum will finally have a chance to win his first ever pokemon league
>not al and cris
>not kevin harlan
>not JOHN FRICKING MADDEN
come the frick on
IT'S HAPPENING
Look at how they murdered my boy. Dragonite used to be a giant cool mysterious dragon now he's a fat manlet with a gay smile
dude dragonite was always a fat goofy barney the dinosaur looking dragon. this is what dragonair's evolution should've looked like.
It should have been dratini > dragonair > gyarados, and magikarp > dragonite
>It just gets BIGGER!!
seriously man what the frick, even gengar is bigger than him, he was supposed to be this huge fricking overpowered dragon that was a pain the ass to obtain
shut the frick up lance
Lance? Only gays wear capes man.
Ash's Dragonite is a girl
for me it's Clover
Couldnt they at least have the decency to bring back Greninja for the tournament and replace that abomination on the left?
They had greninja teach lucario how to be in sync with ash or some shit
Ash beating Gary was the culmination of the series. They should have made it a championship match.
>no charizard
Also May was best girl
#homecoming2022
was the orange island championship filler then? That was a great frickin match. Ash throwing shit out there without regards to type is exactly how I would've played the games if it weren't for the strategy guides.
Yeah, but it gave us to Professor Ivy so there's a win there
Not filler. His victory trophy is seen in the very beginning of this series and he caught Snorlax in the Orange Islands.
>dogshit Ganker mod moved the thread
Well done, Ash, well done... HOWEVER
*masaru punches you in the face*
pssh nothin’ personel’ kid
No, Ash is a homosexual
>moved to /vp/
truly a worse fate than just deleting the thread
Wait, really? How is this not a sticky?
Because only animegays care
It's still pretty significant. He just became the very best like no one ever was!
yeah, and the next time you see him he'll lose to a fricking sprigatito or some shit
Bullshit.
It'll be Quaxly
the games just got leaked online and everyone is too busy with that to care
nu-jannies are ever bigger homosexuals than the old ones that's why
All the talk about the championship has me eager to watch the show which I never kept up with aside from indigo league days.
Is there a recommend season to start? Any that are skippable?
The Gen 4 seasons are the best. The Alola ones aren't bad but very kiddy. Gens 5 and 6 are just awful, skip entirely.
if you want a proper sense of progression the only one you should skip is BW
however SM and Journeys feel different from the previous series
wait a sec
a tournament created so that the losers of previous tournaments could get another shot at winning something...
ash won the nations league of pokemon.
LOL
what are you on about?
Apologize for cheering for my boys? I don't think so.
>No Kingler
>No Haunter
>No Tauros
>Fuk Muk
Butterfree instead of the pokemon he traded away and then released anyway.
Also this shows Pikachi doesnt give a shit about any of the current mons on Ash's team.
You obviously didn't watch the episode, it cut to them in the next shot
Irrelvant. The first shot is all that matters
Ofc the genwunner Ganker tourist spouts a crappy opinion
>only won by cheating and using 3 gimmicks instead of 1 like everyone else
>still barely makes it
wow, great win, really unexpected
Ash would have lost if Leon wasn't an arrogant moron
cope
being okay with ashs hollow victory is cope.
