When did you think the anime jumped the shark? For me, it was when they got rid of Misty, then when they added Max, then Team Rocket changing their motto, and most especially the inclusion of Dawns Piplup, what's your opinion on how it jumped the shark?

My icon was made by MelNathea on DeviantART My DeviantART account Water types are weak against Fire types if they use Thunder as armor. Flareon can use dive and aim for the horn. Then finish it off with False Swipe although it may faint if it uses Endure...but thats just because everyone knows Arbok evolves into Seviper |

It ended for me when I realized they were starting to repaet episodes, just with different pokemon and slightly diffeerent situations.Compare the pokemon episode"Stopped in the Name of Love to one of the first season episodes, "Bulbasuar's Mysterious Garden." If not completely the same thing, they were very simmilar. That, and Dawn's voice kept getting on my nerves. Find new VAs, America!

When Brock left and was replaced by Tracy. I got over it though and continued with it until Team Rocket got rid of their Arbok and Weezing. That was the final straw ;~;

When the voice actors changed, of course. Middle of the Hoenn, when they were exploring the haunted mining, every single one of the voice actors were replaced and that was very disappointing.
But it started to be very retarted when Ash entered Sinnoh. --------------------  So Evil (click to show) |

Probably when I saw the Darkrai movie. Surely I'm not the only one who heard Boga in Palkia's roar and King Ghidorah in Dialga's? And, oh boy, when I heard Mothra's cry coming from Giratina's mouth, I laughed my head off! Now, we go back to the trend again with Zekrom sounding like Megaguirus....

It have to say it went south for me when they just started the new season and Ash is still 10 years old. I mean, REALLY? How has it not been a few years?
I also thought it was a bit odd when Ash started introducing Pikachu as his "partner", I just kept thinking "I don't think Prof. Oak meant for you to be doing ~those~ kinds of things with Pikachu" XD I'm a dirty old man on the inside. --------------------    Two of my favs. |

I actually still like the anime. I don't know how anyone actually finds it bad at all. It's the only thing I actually look forward to watching every morning! And why all the hate for Dawn?! I like Dawn, actually. She's better than Misty. Yes I went there.
But if they ever got rid of Team of Team Rocket. It's the end of Pokemon.

You can't have Pokemon anime without Jesse and James! It's like... cheese without pickle! Chips without mayo!
-------------------- "The world spins on pain. I realised that if there is a supreme power, then it is our duty to become it's moral superior." -Lord Havelock Vetinari, Patrician of Ankh-Morpork "The sentient may perceive and love the universe, but the universe may not perceive and love the sentient. The universe sees no distinction between the multitude of creatures and elements which comprise it. All are equal. None is favored. The universe, equipped with nothing but the materials and the power of creation, continues to create: something of this, something of that. It cannot control what it creates and it cannot, it seems, be controlled by its creations (though a few might deceive themselves otherwise). Those who curse the workings of the universe curse that which is deaf. Those who strike out at those workings fight that which is inviolate. Those who shake their fists, shake their fists at blind stars."- Michael Moorcock, author. |

I lost interest in the first Sinnoh season. The fact that they changed the VAs was enough for me to give up watching the show.

For me, it was when the Orange League started but I do love some of their storylines afterwards such as Paul's Chimchar and a couple of the Chronicles episodes, among others.

I've watch most of the episodes up until the start of Black and White. (Haven't had time to start watching) Though I hated the middle of Johto, mainly because there was just to many fillers in between gym badges and it started to get really irritating. However I really started enjoying Pokemon again when Paul was Ash's main rival. That was when the show started getting good again, and for once the creators actually created a rival who actually used strategy in battles and was better than Ash in that department.
I'm actually looking forward to watching Black and White. I heard there's hardly any fillers and is similar to the first season of Pokemon. Okay, back to the question. Pokemon started to jump the shark for me during the Johto seasons. This post has been edited by Velocity: Apr 14 2012, 09:03 PM -------------------- |
