I desperately hope Dexnav returns, or at least something very close to it. They nailed it with that one.

Ugh no. I don't need another Pokemon encounter gimmick that just wants to give you the same poo poo you already have. They are always terrible.

Dexnav gives you things you don't have though. Or things you do have with unique attacks or abilities..

The SM anime is kinda breaking me apart. It looks great and a very welcome change of pace, but of course people don't like change or children's programming being made for children rather than all-ages. But. Like. On a place I go to people just whine about it and I read someone actually say that they don't like them changing "the formula that has been working for all these years." and. i'm. :psyduck: these are people who've literally seen every episode probably. Like, 942 loving episodes. And they want more??????????? How does someone not get tired of this?? how are people over 15 craving for more of the exact same story in which Ash gets to a place and there's a person having a pokemon-related problem that needs to be solved and Team Rocket is there to make it worse until there's a battle and they're blasting off away??

I mean, Ash will probably still end up going on wacky adventures with his pokemon and end up will a full team of new pokemon. The only real difference is that there is no Pokemon league for Ash to choke in yet again.

Maybe the reason people are upset is because they can't go "okay you guys, this is the year Ash finally wins it!"

oh like, the whole series is about ash at school? i remember seeing a school in the previews and i just assumed it'd be for a 2 or 3 episode intro to alola

if they're actually shaking things up maybe i'll give it a chance

oh definitely, and i'm expecting that later on he has to stop an evil team from taking over the world or something, just that it wont be the same episode a hundred times.

There are people who enjoy seeing Ash go on the same adventure despite knowing he'll lose at the end. :smith:

I hope Team Skull has scientists. Not real ones, tho, just a member found a vape in the trash and he's trying to figure out how to turn rare candies into meth.

He's ten. He has celebrated at least one birthday and commemorated an anniversary of one of his adventures over the course of the show, but he's still ten. Somehow.

If there's one thing anime nerds hate more than anything else, it's change. They despise things ever varying from what they have come to expect and will rage forever no matter how terrible the status quo is.

Nope. He looked that way in the animation style, but rest assured he remains unaging and eternal like a marketing lich.
