Rewind to the beginning... before Battle Frontier... before Hoenn.... before Johto... before the Orange Islands... there was Kanto.

I wonder why they aren't airing them in order? It won't make sense to air random episodes.

...They ARE airing them in order... they're just airing the original KWB batch followed by the syndicated episodes.

On The Case of the K-9 Caper, what was up with jigglypuff? It just randomly came on screen for 5 seconds snag like 1 word then left.... :confused:

Well, Jigglypuff is one of those Pokemon that the writers want to tag along and show up at least once per episode as comic relief. From mid-Kanto through the beginning of Johto it's Jiggilypuff. In early Johto, it goes to Snubbull. After that, the concept is sorta dropped.

What a relief- you Boomerang folks get the good Pokemon Season.

The ones airing on CN (not Chronicles) is a better season of Pokemon.

Wandering aimlessly in Johto, it seems. Gone the way of the GS Ball.

Uh, CN is airing Chronicles, which is crap. If you're thinking of Advanced Battle, that airs on WB.

In my opinion, Pokemon died when they went to the Orange Islands and replaced Brock with Tracy.

Advanced Battle also airs on CN, as of July 31st.

you do know brock came back after the short OI season (which was one of my favs btw),


I love the picture of the talkback, so nostalgic.

Wow, I didn't even realize someone added a picture to my post!

Thanks to whoever made the picture! (I'm guessing Duke.)

[Kolbar]

Thanks to whoever made the picture! (I'm guessing Duke.) Nope. That was me. I got a whole bunch made up for when the marathons and new shows start.

[Duke]

Nah, wasn't me. I probably would've used a promo pic from Mewtwo Strikes Back instead. :P

Jigglypuff did appear near the end of Advanced, but it hasn't appeared at all since then.

[Dogasu]

Any word on whether or not "Beauty and the Beach" will air?

I'm guessing it won't, but still.

Well, the schedule only displays up to Squirtle Squad.

[Kolbar]

Any word on whether or not "Beauty and the Beach" will air?

I'm guessing it won't, but still.Nope. It's not listed. On Wednesday the 16th, "Island of the Giant Pokemon" airs at 10:00pm and then "Tentacool and Tentacruel" airs at 10:30pm. It skips over "Beauty and the Beach."

[Duke]

If it airs, Beauty and the Beach probably won't until the Orange Islands. After all, that's how WB & 4Kids had it listed.

[CyberCubed]

At least they're airing the Tentacool episode. Good, there should be no reason for that to be excluded from the Kanto boxset this Fall then. (The Australian version skipped that episode for some reason)
