Retro_Link Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) Pretty cool! I'm sure people could literally waste a whole year catching up and watching non-stop Pokémon! :p Surely this has to turn up Wii U?... I'm actually quite shocked it hasn't launched on the console, as it would be well received right now! The Wii had Kirby episodes after all! Edited February 13, 2013 by Retro_Link
Hero-of-Time Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I would sooooo watch this if they put it on the Wii U. Make it so Nintendo!

Rummy Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 This looks like a genius idea! I guess the problem however is that it's got limited episodes/content? Anyone got it/used it yet? Seconding that this'd be a brilliant idea on Wii U too!

Ike Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 There's different seasons based on the regions, for example there's a few episodes from Season 2 (Kanto) that go from the 7th Gym battle to after the 8th gym, then whatever for Johto, Sinnoh etc.
Josh64 Posted February 15, 2013 Posted February 15, 2013 Watching Season 2 again is amazing, so nostalgic.
Serebii Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 They cycle through the episodes of each season changing every week. It does have access to the latest movie to watch (it's also on Pokémon.com), and a special Meloetta short which hasn't aired outside of Japan
Guy Posted February 16, 2013 Posted February 16, 2013 Wow, the art/animation quality in Pokemon definitely shot up in recent years. There was a period where the show was being done digitally that was absolutely horrible - the new character designs are nice too, way more in line with the current look of the videogames.

Indeed, and the battles were so static and full of recycled footage. Nowadays, they're way more dynamic
Josh64 Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 I'm just curious after downloading this, is it easy to get hold of the seasons? I tried to get some of the seasons on DVD a few years back and it was such an effort, I think in the end I would have had to order from America and hope that I had a region free DVD player. I think if they created a few box-sets they'd sell really well. Hopefully we'll see them on Netflix soon or something, because other than this app, the only easy way is by streaming off dodgy websites.

Basically, it cycles through the episodes so there's around 10 from each region at a time. It removes 5 and adds 5 every week. There is one way to get them. In Australia, they do massive boxsets of entire sagas. I'm unsure if they're region free or anything
Josh64 Posted February 17, 2013 Posted February 17, 2013 Yeah, I know the cycle of the app, I was just wondering if there were any plans to release entire box sets, I'd prefer to buy them as one :p
Eightbit Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Downloaded this and watched an episode tonight. Wish i hadn't... the show is AWFUL! Was there something wrong with me when i was younger, i thought this garbage was entertaining? The same thing happens in every episode in slightly different scenarios. EDIT: Kidoking beats Golem with TACKLE! WTF Edited February 19, 2013 by Eightbit
