It's at the 7:00 timeslot, though, which has traditionally been occupied by the laughably bad.

pokemon may be leaving Kids WB but it isn't leaving TV. It is going to cartoon network. Seeing as Chronicles is on Toonami on CN in the USA anyhow now.

Meh, if my memory serves me right, alot of episodes were longer than they needed and it was very repetive. (alot of episodes involved Team rocket coming up with something, and then failing... I hate Team rocket. -.-)

Cartoon Network has started to show the Hoenn episodes. Maybe they'll pick it up?

You do realize that the games/TCG (I think) are still continuing, right? It's just the show that's going off the air.

And yes, they were good times.

Digimon is WORSE than Pokemon because they tried too hard. Really, to those who say Pokemon is unoriginal, just remember which series has 360+ original characters, and which series has all of their characters end with "-mon". Here's a hint: there's no Pikamon.

Squirtle, Bulbasaur, munchlax would eventually eveolve into snorelax, and gary had eevee

I'm not really sure how long the American dub has gotten.. but I guess it should be up to Advanced Generation which is as far as the Japanese version has gotten I think. I wouldn't really mind seeing it end forever though .

I think they should do like digimon and I dunno kill off the other characters or something... Satoshi is just... boring... they need to focus on a character who doesn't have 50 million friends, and has Satoshi seen his rival in a while? man... seriously the movies are the only thing worth watching anymore, the things 4Kids did to humiliate pokemon have never been lived down, many people have tried to ban the show, because since they are a minority they think they are better than other races or something? can't we all just get along and understand that the show is from japan, not too many black people there, and where does "black" come from, its not a true black skin color unless you have frost bite... (no I'm not being racist you people who think anything to do with skin color is a racist problem, people just saw "jynx" or ruujura and freaked...) anyways, if anything I wanna see episode 1 of the kanto series in japanese, I saw the first one in hoeen, which was > 4Kids version...

but otherwise the show had its good times and bad, I think sticking to a character who has gotten rid of his pokemon more times than anyone, and the only pokemon that he had in its final 3rd form was left at a canyon, how thoughtful, it started with butterfree and the series never failed to let it down, of all pokemon to let go... why the first one you ever capture? and then there is the whole haruka getting most of satoshi's old pokemon... is that the best they can come up with?

If you ask me they need to make a new character and start him off in the next region, and when he gets his last badge and kicks the crap out of the pokemon league they move on from him and follow other characters in the series new ones in new areas, not just keeping track of one, then after that, they can come back and battle one of the newer characters, and they don't need thousands of filler episodes, easily a season should be 20 episodes at most... then they should move on, that way there won't be so many episodes... that and it will be easier to release to box sets.

Well I never really watched it out of choice, more just that's all they show in..you know, Japan xP buut...its just better. They don't cut stupid scenes, or ENTIRE EPISODES leaving ginourmous plotholes season after season (please tell me someone remembers the two Weepinbel magically appearing? Yeah it didn't really happen that way..xP) Okay, so we had the seizure episode and that made your dubbers more paranoid to censor it. But they ruined it =|

I don't know too many people who watch the Japanese version... what all's different? I know of a few things, but... Most of it I didn't hear about.

Phanpy and Grovyle already evolved, but then again America might not have got that yet. Well, it dosn't matter to me, the Japanese version is always going to be superior in its unedited form. Its really a great show when you see it the way it was meant to be seen.

Have you heard of Pokemon Yellow. The game won't allow the owner's Pikachu to use the Thunderstone to evolve. Anyway, few others like Cyndaquil, Totodile, Squirtle, Phanpy (Don't know), Grovyle (Don't Know). But most of the time, I went to Serebii's site for the latest updates.

No! You lie! He's real! I saw him!

...Yeah. Actually, I suppose Jackie Chan Adventures was pretty amusing... but when's the last time it was on WB?

The coconut thing freaks me out.

And Freakazoid was instant win.

I figured that some you want this show to die. I had a great experiece watching it. But look at me I'm 21. That's right my age don't lie. Although some of you don't believe me. 8 years of watching it gave me a good life. And I still like to play Pokemon video games as well.
