[X] My Assistant

[Jaze]

halfway through the hoenn season, i couldn't stand the way the show went, and i HATED dawn so no d/p/pt season for me either.
however i LOVE the new best wishes series and i set my alarm to get up and watch it every saturday. i hate cilan though, because of how he has to use these stupid descriptions related to food for everything. and i hate how iris thinks she's older than she really is.
besides all that, i love it. b/w got me watching pokemon again.

[The dead cat]

停止在第三季。。。因為學習很忙。。。不過以後我會繼續看的。
Stop in the third quarter. . . Because the study was busy. . . But I will continue to look after.

[Ryuko]

Ever since it stopped showing on free to air channels.
I know, I'm not fancy enough to afford Foxtel, and I can't be bothered or find enough time to watch on the computer.

[digit198801]

I stopped sometime during the Hoenn region.
But only because I was too busy to watch Pokemon.

I plan to rewatch from the beginning sometime soon.

[Rika Creature]

I stopped somewhere in the middle of Hoenn as well~ I think I just felt that I was "too old" for it at that point or something, it just no longer interested me :< Every once in a while I'll go back and watch an episode if it features a Pokemon I really like, but that's about it~

[draconitas]

Around the middle-end of season 1, when I ran out of the VCDs, and was too lazy to wake up to catch it on free-to-air.

I must admit that while I will never be too old for the games, the anime bugs me sometimes, because Ash is honestly not one of the better trainers around, and given how long he's been at this (though I must get his Potion of Eternal Youth from him) he really should know better. Magically though, he always wins, even if e insists on using Thunderbolts on Ground types and generally ignoring game mechanics. The powering down of Pikachu at the start of every season also bugs me, as it has every season since season 2.



Predictably, every episode goes:

Scene 1:

*Tralalalalala, walking along.*

GANG: omg, a pokemon/person in need of help / oh look, the town we wanted to get to! Let us go help/battle the Gym Leader/take part in a Contest.


Case 1: LET US BATTLE/CONTEST
Scene 2: Battle/Contest. Ash/groupie loses. Cue
Scene 3: Pokemon is stolen by Team Rocket. Hilarity ensues, Ash teams up with Opponent (from before) and Team Rocket's Blasting Off Again (TRBOA)
Scene 4: Battle again (optional). WE ARE BESTIES 4EVA. Ash wins.


Case 2: HELP ME/(POKEMON SOUNDS)
Scene 2: Rescue Pokemon/person from Rocket/Evil Things. Poor Pokemon, now we must return you to your family/ Hey Trainer Let Us Battle
Scene 3: OMG TEAM ROCKET STOLE (YOUR) POKEMON (optionally, and Pikachu!). CHASE SCENE
Scene 4: Pikachu, use Thunderbolt! - Oh No It Does Not Work - New Pokemon From Earlier, Use *Some Attack*! - NOW, Pikachu, use Thunderbolt! - TRBOA
Scene 5: Optionally, Battle, again. Ash wins.

I haven't stopped watching it. I just started watching all through from the first season again.

Same here! (there is someone like me in the other part of the world!) Chapter 22 Season 2

[Litoris]

I stopped in the middle of season 2, because it got banned in my country, because some kid decided to jump out of the window yelling "Pikachu!!" while watching pokemon, and it made it to the news. This was around 2002, the latest season still airs here but it all looks too weird to me, the new trainers and all.

[Bomberx57]

When Cartoon Network decided to never show it ever again. ;.;

[SparklingMistral]

I stopped watching it frequently after I finished middle school. I would watch the episodes in the morning as I was getting ready for school. That was when they were in Hoenn, and I believe they hit Sinnoh while I was still in middle school. I did watch the Labor Day marathon the day before my freshman year of high school, which was definitely Sinnoh, because I was up for it and nothing else was on.

Now I rarely watch it. I've seen it a handful of times while they've been in Unova, but I've technically stopped religiously watching it.

[AyameHigono]

I stopped watching it probably when they changed the voice actress for Ash. But since my brother is still young I occasionally watch it with him.

[Larzsi]

I stopped watching it a few years ago, but about a month before the end of school I started watching Diamond and Pearl when I got home. I watched a couple of episodes of Black and White and then stopped again.

[Aurachi]

I still watch it ! 8D

[Digidude]

I stopped watching when the Hoenn series started then i restarted watching it during the Sinnoh series and i stopped watching recently when Black and White started.

[Lugia182]

I stopped before the end of the Indigo League series, and started watching again quite recently. I'm in the middle of watching Black and White, Sinnoh League Victors (I'm close to the end of that) and... I forget. He's still in Johto in the third one I'm watching though haha! It might be Master Quest... not sure.

[zorua9]

i watched it from time to time, so i didn't know what was happening.

[Quomimi]

I stopped around Platinum. I was pretty sick of their cheesy-ness. Though I never woke up early to watch a new episode... Only for the older ones. x3

[Pyotr]

Stopped watching after noticing how boring it started to get for me.

[SaraPiplup]

The first episode of Unova. When the narrator said "10 year old Ash Ketchum" I was done. I flipped out and ranted for at least an hour about how Ash has gone through 4 regions with 100s of episodes and he has not had at least 1 birthday. Oh, and because they killed off Brock.

[Matjes]

when I realized that its mostly sentimental.... (many years ago... )

I would like a reboot which is more serious, with a good storyline and such watchable things
but that will never happen....
