Pokémon to end after 12 Seasons.

Reports are coming in from various Nintendo affiliates that the popular reality series known in Japan as "Pocket Monsters" will be ending it's run after the current season, somewhat believed to coincide with the ongoing rumors that star Satoshi 'Ash' Ketchum has quietly commited suicide in his Pallet Town home. Sources say that he had been finally journalling his past travels, and upon the realization that it seemed hopeless he would ever be able to "catch them all" based both on his own inability to catch more than 20 pokemon (and 30 Tauros) over the years, and his rash decisions to give some of them away, etc. coupled with the reports that the notorious Team Rocket has gone into secret business with the Nintendo corporation to continuously breed new mutations of pokemon from local animals, led to the unfortunate chain of events.

Memorial service information to be likely forthcoming.

R.I.P. Mister Ketchum, we love you.

No need to cancel it. Just make Dawn the main character now. She's popular with both girls and grown men.

She's money unlike that croaked almost-was of a trainer. He even stupidly released that Gliscor that only won one match, where it still required some pre-match interference to win.

Wow, really?

Too bad, I think 100 seasons would have been better.

Yah not gonna happen sadly.
Generation Five was already annouced a few months back.
We all know what will happen, Ash & Brock go off into another region with Team Rocket following them. They meet another Generation girl, Dawn comes back for an episode or two to help the new girl with whatever she's doing. Yah, its become predictable I know
Good try though.

On a serious note, Dawn could actually stay in the cast. She and Piplup have been pretty popular. I'd really prefer her leaving since I'm not her biggest fan, but her situation could go either way.

I have to say that the whole Ash committing suicide was funny and disturbing all at the same time. I think it would have been funnier if you had added something about Misty, considering her sometimes too intense fans would jump through the heavens if she made an appearance.

How sad. It was just getting to the real beginning of the plot, too.

May was pretty dang popular too and didn't stay.
One of the producers on the show in Japan was interviewed and explained that the reason they keep switching girls is to draw in the fan boys.
So don't expect to keep one of the girls any time soon. I just hope they don't keep restarting contests over and over, its becoming boring to me now.

Gliscor was the biggest jobber this side of Sho Funaki. I'm glad Ash pulled a Vince McMahon on him and fired him publicly and in the most demeaning way possible. Hopefully, he starts taking more cues from Paul and ditches other worthless Pokemon like his Noctowl and Brock.

You're one of the few that doesn't understand Gliscor's genius. He made Ash's Sinnoh Team complete. He made me laugh out loud every time with it's antics, the day it was released was the day that I decided to cry myself to sleep every night since then. Never did I feel something like that since Ash left his Pidgeot and promised to come back. If she comes back during the Sinnoh League, I will die a happy man.

The same genius that decided Kenny was a good re-occuring rival?

More like he brought them down with his awfulness.

You must be quite a child if you find that garbage Pokemon amusing. A show like this is way too high brow to include such childish humor, it should cater more to mature viewers such as myself. But with characters like Zoey and Harley getting spotlight, I believe I'm finally getting my due.

Coming in, I was like "Please don't let this be an April Fool's Joke." Then I saw the thing about Ash's suicide and I thought "Damn. It IS a joke! The writers would never have the guts to do that."

Kenny was a joke from the moment he was on DP. Once they decided to shoe horn in so many rivals for Dawn, we lost focus on him. Such a shame, a character with potential was wasted. I wish I was a writer for Pokemon.


Quote:

Other than Ash's Chimchar, I didn't care for anyone else on his team. Grotle was stupid looking and lacked a personality that he stole from Bulbasaur. Buizel was cool at first, but then downplayed him, so he lost points with me. As for Staraptor, he was the blandest of the bland.

Two characters that are implied to be homosexual are considered high brow? I thought that was some lowbrow stuff that I myself partake in every night.

Of course, for I am the great Pokemon Master that can do no wrong. My predictions are always right. RIGHT I TELL YOU! Everyone else is wrong. Wrong! WRONG! Gliscor will come back for the League, if not... I don't know what I'll do anymore.
