I just noticed from the intro that Pikachu has been a perv since the very beginning. It paints a different perception in my head now of how Pikachu is. I've caught him flipping off the audience many times. I'll post as i go.
I've heard of complaints of the new 3d detective pikachu game that had him doing that. I see that that is part of his character. He is a belligerent rat. Who the hell is the girl? I don't recall guess ill find out.
The say Po-Ka-Mon yet sing Po Kay-mon. 4K didn't give a fuck.
|
Poke' MON |
It opens with another character that didn't get to much action in the game. Holy crap this cop is sellin that script, porn star VA's are less jubilant.
|
Not even 10 minutes into his journey and pikachu is done for. |
|
first mention of Jessie and James. |
|
The cop runs ash to the hospital nwhile misty comes seeking revenge.
|
Misty from revenge town. |
Late to the party ash narrowly misses the burn bike beatdown.
|
Jessie/Musashi and James/Kojiro |
Jessie and james are the minions in the game that try to capture anything the main character has caught. It lways ends in disaster for them which is part of the running gag.
They are very serious in the beginning. They are the laughing stock of the show.
|
Two NPCs meet. |
|
She typed Nightmare into this windows 98 PC. |
This nurse literally throws your poke balls into a magic incubator in the game curing each without status worries, but the show. Sends in the Nightmares.
|
My personal nightmare. |
Ive heard less slurring from woman after a bottle of wine. These VAs must have been into the roles.
No lip flap goes un worded.
The actual anime story is hidden beneath a moutain of english dub nonsence. That's not a bad thing. You don't want to bore the kids to death. I've watched the first season in Japanese. The dub has a lot more going for it.
|
"It to your dad 4 days to get to veridion city" |
So Ash's dad was a pokemon trainer?
Is he ever mentioned again?
|
How Japanese |
These useful kiosks from the game appear where they are supposed to.
|
White Album was boring. |
These payphones are common in Japan. America has phased them out, they are a rarity to see. outside of airports or prisons anyway.
|
Barf Hello, Barf. |
Noted for their green color, comparing them to pokemon magic is a waste of time.
|
Sick legends bro. |
Ash notices that there is a painting of legendary pokemon in the hospital lobby.
|
Which happens to be a conference call. |
They are making it seem like Ash is in some set up world like the Truman Show. Nevermind lettiung a 10 year old child "journey across the land". You must go collect them all. Creepy.
|
Pissty has arrived. |
|
We'll send the bill to your MOM, kid. |
Pikachu ends up being Ok. What a relief.
|
Ekans, Koffing |
Team Rocket appears. They want rare pokemon. All hell breaks loose turning the hospital into a mess, the crew runs into the pokeball room where the lights go out.
Oh not to worry, the hospital has their own source of back up generator
|
WTF |
As a defense the pokeballs are transported via satellite to another center
|
Anti theft teleportation. |
In a world where nothing but capturing Pokemon matters, they have automated defenses ready to go.
|
Meowth Takes charge |
Nya? Meowth is the only redeemable char in Team rocket.
|
Pikachu destroys Team rocket |
"Gonna need a montage". They dim the flash effects because kids in Japan went into seizures watching the first season. Now everything is dimmed.
|
Veridion City's hospital is obliterated by the new guy. |
They talk about ash having to go to Pewter city but they have to go through Veridion City's Forrest to get there. Ash encounters his first pokemon since Pikachu technically doesnt stay in the pokeball.
|
I used to catch the hell out of caterpies |
Episode 2 ends with Ash trying to capture a caterpie. No one is responsible for the destroyed hospital or buying misty a new bike.
