In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities.

Do any of you like Pokemon? I created this thread so people could disscuse why they like it and don't like it. Personally I think Pokemon is babyish. The characters get so worked up just because of their pokemon. It's annoying, and while my sister watches it I roll my eyes. Well what do you think?

When it first came out, I loved it. I saw the pilot episode, memorized the poke-rap, the entire list of the first 150 pokemon, etc. Then, I grew out of it, like any fad. Incredibly powerful tool in controlly my Midnight Minor Minons, though. :D

That's priceless.

The first two sets of games (Blue/Red and Gold/Silver) were enjoyable (especially when played on a Dreamcast, :D ), but the relentless annoying marketing killed it. I've got episodes of the series stashed away on some old VHS tapes, but I still remember that my favorite part of the first episode is the 'just open your mouth and say something' bit. The rest of it is just too much for me now. I did see part of one of the movies on Cartoon Network a few weeks ago (I think it might've been the third movie?), and it didn't seem all that bad, but meh.

And then there was this piece of interesting news I posted about last month...

LoL I loved it too, in fact I was almost Obsessed with it!:doh:

I always wanted that Ash hat though...that was p-i-m-p hahaha^_^ I kinda miss the original ones, because it seems like they have just gone to far. I don't know why they have so many pokemon. I can understand the Sliver and Gold and then the Crytsal with the 3 dogs, but then it just went to far.

I was happy about the fire red and leaf green games, but I lost it.

Pokemon is one of those introductory animes like DBZ that people catch on the cartoon network in butchered form, and then people either move on, or fail to find more respectable stuff.
LB... DBZ is NOT that bad...if ya get past all the yelling...I still like it today...but I found another anime to watch...so...people WILL move on from it...They're not stuck there watching the same thing over and over again!

Yeah, I really could only stand up to the end of Cell, and then I just couldn't take it anymore.
