AnnRiko yuri route

WOKE
If Ann is a dyke she will be like Tomoyo from Cardcaptors. Cucked by a pretty boy to remind a new generation of dykes that you can't beat the fit and proper het ships. And Ann will be little more than a hyp girl cheering Riko on as she takes her first steps with Amethio-kun.

It feels so fucking nice to actually like something from Pokemon again. 
After who fucking knows how long, this actually felt like it was developing the world and was an honest to god adventure. 

And I don't if this was intentional or not, probably was, but this feels very Nadia inspired.

--- 251373460
>>251372264
Imagine you've only watched the subs. Clearly, you know the japanese names, so why would you want them to switch to the dub names?

--- 251373619
>>251370467 (OP)
Is there anything that makes this more interesting without Ash?
--- 251373668
>>251372264
if people subbed something like the first pokemon movie(june 98) which showed some of gen 2, then the gen 2 game would only come out nov 00 in the west
even like 10 eps before the movie gen 2 appeared, and you'd have to make silly changes over two years after
i'd say go watch a dub if the gaijin names matter
--- 251373680
>>251373619
It's at least vaguely pretending to be a real anime for once instead of a toy commercial. How long that keeps up is TBD.
--- 251373712
>>251373619
>no Ash
already interesting
--- 251373723
/vp/ Is so sad, there's an incel having a meltdown over the fact female fans of pokemon exist and that they dared to make a shoujo manga or an anime with a female protagonist. I want to believe It's trolling.
--- 251373733
>>251373619
It's actually telling a story, and has characters that aren't just excuses to advertise merch.
--- 251373746
if neither starter evolves this anime is going to be shit
--- 251373786
>>251373723
Much like how the game Pokefags don't play any other JRPG besides Pokemon, anime Pokefags don't actually watch any other anime besides Pokemon and maybe the other toy anime.

Is basically the same toy commercial as ever but without Ash and a story that will last between 2 to 3 years. So enter with caution. To sum it up. Is Pokémon XY but with a different MC and and a serviceable animation and art
--- 251373991

--- 251374096
>>251373994
He stole it because he didn't actually want to steal it. The lack of intent was key.
--- 251374097
I havent watched anything pokemon related in years besides that nice bump of chicken music video but I thought this was surprisingly good. It didn't have any of the typical shounen energy I expected it to and it felt very grounded and easy to watch. I'm worried for when the energetic looking boy shows up but I'll give it a few episodes at least. it has the coherency and spirit that some of the spinoffs like ranger had to me.
--- 251374174

He's not wrong though, everybody hates Roy so far. If his first impressions aren't incredible I'm not sure he'll be able to redeem himself.
--- 251374554
>>251374493
4chan hates him because of some unknown reason. Thankfully nobody cares about that
--- 251374563
Why can't it be Liko and her girlfriend instead of Roy?
--- 251374564
>>251373041
>>251373192
Liko fights like a PokeSpe MC.
--- 251374567
>>251374554
4chan hates him and the rest of the world acts like he doesn't and shouldn't exist. That seems pretty hated to me.
--- 251374598
>>251374567
Can you show evidence of this other than you saying it's true?
--- 251374645
>>251374598
The proof is in the artwork, the tweets, the general discussion of the characters. Nobody brings up Roy because nobody likes Roy. What little Roy artwork that exists so far comes mostly from known shota pornography artists.
--- 251374648
No, this is not going to be a show focusing on just Liko being a kawaii girl wearing cute outfits and cuddling with her Pokemon. Cry about it.
--- 251374696
>Liko has a diary

--- 251374705
Riko having sex with Nyaoha's evolution.
--- 251374706
>>251374645
And Delphox has less art than Braixen, that doesn't really translate to a character being hated, nor does a few angry tweets,. I need some conclusive evidence
--- 251374738

--- 251374885
>>251374554
i don't hate him but i think he's uninteresting and was created due to higher ups being too pussy to actually have a solo feMc for the franchise. But if he has an interesting personality i'd be willing to give some chance
--- 251374887
>>251374825
Nigger, the amount of fanart a character gets has next to no bearing on their actual popularity. Girl characters get more fanart in general. Mostly from male artists being coomers.

--- 251374993
>>251374825
Again, by this logic Delphox must be hated and people like Braixen more, yet official poll results show that not only is Delphox not hated, it's liked more than Braixen. So again. post something more substantial please

>Sorry to keep you waiting cap
>ENTERS
Now I can finally like Pikachu again
--- 251375036
>>251374993
Delphox is still more than half of Braixen's amount. Roy isn't even a tenth. Try again.
--- 251375038
>>251374493
>>251374554
Roy's story Is straight up just a reboot to the GS ball the anime never bothered to return to. I find that pretty funny really
--- 251375042
I don't care about popularity but I think a good way to measure it are popularity polls. Take Galar for example. Hopefully they make one
--- 251375089
seems this yamper/wanpachi pokemon sort of got marketed before or something, does it have any actual popularity?
--- 251375110
>>251375038
Yeah, is pretty cool how they are treating him like a proper trainer like Ash
--- 251375111
>>251375036
They've also been out for a decade while Liko and Roy have not, and again, the point is, fan art means nothing because something as simple as a dedicated base commissioning a bunch of art can affect the numbers.
--- 251375134
Roy licking Liko's sweaty armpits
--- 251375152
>>251375111
>They've also been out for a decade
That's not how ratios work. That's why I said tenth instead of hundreds less.
--- 251375164
How do you feel about the MILF with pink hair being the streamer? I think is a good twist considering her personality
--- 251375190
>MILF
--- 251375214
>>251375152
Ratios also don't matter because the context of the fanart being made can be because of something simple as one guy paying a bunch of artists to commission. All it could mean is that one person really likes Liko for all we know. On top of this, Liko has debuted properly in the Anime where as Roy has yet to appear, that could also affect things
--- 251375249
>>251375214
stop trying to reason with him let him live in his retarded delusions
--- 251375261
>>251375214
If you want to live in a delusion that's fine. But keep your insanity to yourself. If nobody talks about him, draws stuff about him, writes stuff about him, wants to see stuff about him, then probably nobody likes him.
--- 251375281
the pokemon version of gotou hitori is probably going to be about the same age of the two, unless it's noticeable she's taller

Thoughts? About Roy and Liko's official cosplayers? Who would you fuck
--- 251375531
>>251375482
No, I'm asking for proof that Roy is hated using actual methods to prove it. Fanart is not for the reasons already stated.
--- 251375536
I'm going to guess that some people might think Friede's voice actor might be someone who was born in the 80s, it's someone else.
--- 251375539

The finale of PM2023 was a complete and utter flop. Can't believe we wasted 4 years on something no one wants to talk about. They should bring Ash back because reasons.

>>251375531
>I'm asking for proof that Roy is hated
That's been provided. Nobody draws art of him, talks about him, or does anything about him compared to others. Even Amethio and Friede are more popular, so it's not like you can use the "girls get more fanart!" excuse.

So I was right. Riko's parents are not Ash and X, as her parents met at Sekiei. She is confirmed for being a Nikkei

Sometime after marriage they moved to Paldea for work. That explains the Japanese-sounding name for what should be a Spaniard girl. Riko is officially KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANTO by ethnicity.

I'd understand it for anime-exclusive characters but everyone is exposed to their local version of the names and moves (and other misc terms) on day one as it is.

Trying to attach decades of localizations is going to be a mess as the original won't have attachment to them. Using them would be like needing "reverse translation notes" that explain why the localization could not be matching with how the Japanese version/direct translation handles things, aka like putting that gaijin "donuts line" into text in a sub while the screen shows onigiri. Like someone said earlier, might as well use a dub instead.
--- 251377968
How do you do shoujo horror?

Depict the IRL consequences of ACTUALLY dating a bad boy with the expectations you can change his ways?

"I-I can fix him I can"
"Riko! What did I tell you about speaking without being spoken to?"
"N-nothing Amethio-sama."
"Good. I've got a meeting today and you better have dinner ready by the time I get bad"

When they announced the Championship it became even more obvious, but nope, /a/ kept their heads in the sand.
The only thing I got wrong was that I thought Goh would replace him, so the end result was better. Although it'd be even better if Goh was secretly a girl

I'll 100% drop this if it goes down the route of filler SoL without advancing the plot. We don't need another Ash. If they were going to shit out another 25 year long series, they might as well have given the og another 25 years instead

I love Eevee but giving the protagonist one is a bit off If it evolves. In Adventures they made Red's work by having it be a mutant due to touching multiple stones but If Riko was to have one It would be better off just not evolving.

18min Part 2.

Amethio scoffs at Friede sending out a Pikachu- an odd thing to say given that a Pikachu won a 2:1 in the recent PWC.

This leads me to believe one of three things:
1. Amethio didn't watch the PWC and doesn't care about the competitive scene;
2. The series takes place concurrent to or before the PWC finals; or
3. This really is an alternate universe.

Third option seems unlikely given they established earlier, in Gurumin's stream, that the concept of Champions exists in the anime- implying the traditional league and the canon Champions exist as well. I can't see them resetting Cynthia.

--- 251379461
>>251373619
>>251379225
As discussed, it really is shaping up to be Laputa with Pokemon-which I found out was the same plot as Nadia due to some production fuckery between Toho/Toei/Ghibli. Derivative, but I still like it. Could lead to some very nice shippy moments if Roy is taking the place of Pazu.

Now a lot can still go wrong with this mystery box plot. I cannot imagine the development would satisfy anyone, and the plot progression would became glacial, should it last as long as Gen 9. It's also possible that they make the same mistake as recent Digimon series in which they fuck around for 70% of the time only to push the story in the last 3 episodes.
--- 251379486
>>251379415
NTA but it makes it so they can't shill the other eeveelutions. See the last series, where the Eevee whore kept flip-flopping and wasted everyone's time for months to end up not evolving the damn thing, or the SM water slut's Eevee which didn't evolve either so they could shill Let's Go some more

I have no idea how to feel about this shit. Riko's constant internal monologue was great at first, but they might have overdone it a bit with her autistically staring off into space every other sentence. No way they keep that writing up for long. Her relationship with Nyahoja is also bizarre and poorly conveyed. Is the cat supposed to represent her true/repressed feelings? I never once got the sense she was hiding something about herself until she just magically said so right at the end and flipped her personality switch on.

"Recycled Script: From a certain anime series whose concept was created by Miyazaki in The '80s as a proposed sequel to his work Future Boy Conan. Like Castle in the Sky, it featured blue skies, ancient civilizations, flying machines, a brave boy and his more mystic female friend from said civilization who carries a blue magic gemstone, a small clan of robbers led by a woman who eventually become allies, and a paramilitary order of villains whose leader is also related to it. The rejection of Miyazaki's pitch by Toho led him to recycle this script in his own film, Castle in the Sky, but the anime would end up being produced too some years later (ironically, under the direction of an old colleague of Miyazaki's, Hideaki Anno) under the name Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water."

I think I'm gonna watch Nadia this year. Wasn't aware it had a Ghibli connection.

". Their world is home to two shadowy groups in conflict: Neo-Atlantis, who want to rule the world"

Let me guess, as someone who did not watch Nadia, Neo-Atlantis is a monarchist group, led by a long lost descendant, who want to restore the imagined glory of a Lost Kingdom. The Rightful King

If that is the case, Laputa/Neo-Atlantis as a fallen kingdom this could be a right fit. There's speculation that Blueberry Academy draws from Atlantis imagery. It's notable that Paldea, in spite of being based on Spain, currently has no known King. So the reasoning go the Old Empire may have fallen, and Area Zero/Terapagos played a role in it. Further to this, Spain has a long history of back and forth between Republicanism, Restoration and Monarchism. The most recent restoration stuck, cause a certain Prince chose the winning side, and then he passed a Constitution that made it near impossible to remove his descendants.

And that is not even mentioning the Carlist Autism or that one time the Corsican decided to put his brother on the throne or the fact that the current family originated from RL Kalos!

Yes, it does appear to follow some shoujo-esque story beats.
Also, you may be autistic if you really didn't pick up on Liko constantly limiting herself, beating herself up for it, then trying and failing to change because her attempts were too little, too late until weedcat snaps her out of it and they try to murder her would-be rapist.
--- 251379975
>>251379553

A mix of that, Nadia, and Ghibli influence I guess. The airship is honestly pretty neat too, they actually put thought into It.
>>251379793
>they try to murder her would-be rapist.
Oh come on, Amethio wouldn't actually rape her! I think.
--- 251380032
one thing i really enjoyed from the first two episodes was the fact the use of pokemon around the airship.
seeing slugma be used as a way to power the incinerator, nosepass as a compass, noctowl as a night spotter, it made the airship feel really alive
--- 251380216

wow i botched my sentence really badly
anyway, there was a good amount of tension in both episodes, honestly a really good start to the series. I'll keep watching for a bit because I want to see what kind of goal liko will end up having and i want to see how they adapt area 50 into the anime

--- 251380409
>>251379793
>Also, you may be autistic if you really didn't pick up on Liko
The part of her that was reserved and shy was spelled out perfectly clear. It's the obverse that wasn't. I can't recall any line of dialogue from her that suggested she was anything but what she presented herself as, both outwardly and inwardly, and her actions certainly didn't either. She was 100% passive and just along for the ride the entire time with the sole exception being when she jumped off the roof with her cat. That's not enough.
--- 251380422

This scene was really popular with women, huh? I figured that was the idea since the first time I saw it, but it's still funny that the fangirl reaction was so predictable.
>Amethio wouldn't actually rape her!
She doesn't know that, he knows she doesn't know that, and they're both aware of "the implication".
--- 251380457
>>251379975
Nadia and Laputa were developed from the same concept/script as I found out. Both seem to be about a deluded monarchist trying to restore his House to power-no matter the cost.

No reason not to have a scene like that since It's tested to have that kind of reaction very often.
>She doesn't know that, he knows she doesn't know that, and they're both aware of "the implication"
Honestly I can see why this kind of thing can be hot

They better not use that as an excuse to not have Nanjamo, she's the only SV girl I liked.

Heh, I'm not at all surprised Amethio and Riko would be the first fanfiction for the series.
>>251380457

Oh shit, I'm pretty sure one of the lore books mentioned royalty in the area zero stuff
--- 251381136
>>251380885
if anything they'll probably have nanjamo and her do a collab in the future, they'd be stupid as fuck not to. she's easily the most popular character in SV by a mile compared to the other losers

but im afraid that when the other kid shows up hes gonna be the most annoying cunt ever or the show itself is front loaded
--- 251382421
>>251382255
I wouldn't worry about it, he's just some kid with the GS Ball 2.0 and that's his whole plotline. He can't possibly be that annoying. Besides Riko has social autism if not outright autism so If he's a social character befriending him would be a good thing

--- 251385767
>>251385211
Yes, pretty much from the start with very few exceptions. Ash's Pikachu final moveset was Thunderbolt, Quick Attack, Iron Tail and Electroweb. The first three he's kept since Johto while the fourth move changed around a bunch, it used to be Volt Tackle, then Electro Ball before.

The Nidorina streamer is more universally likeable if you aren't into vtuber shit, in particular parents watching with their kids can appreciate it a lot more
yes I know she's not a vtuber but it's the same aesthetic, and on the parents point even a more conventional streamer is inferior to the costumed character

--- 251390317
>>251388896
On a like, structural / design / characterization / etc level it's one of the better Pokemon games, easily the best 3D game, problem is that they seem to have worked on mostly finishing the content-side of the game this time instead of bothering to even begin working on the technical side, it runs like ass despite looking terrible, is prone to uncommon crashes, the camera never knows what to do in battle and is usually clipped inside terrain, even the cutscenes sometimes run at like 5FPS causing huge audio desync as well.
It falls into the same came as that sinnoh isekai game they released earlier the same year, decent ideas with a completely botched technical execution.

It runs like absolute garbage and postgame is barebones as hell.
Like there isn't even a battle tower clone which was a staple since crystal.
The most fun part of the game is basically that you're 100% free to explore the map at your leisure.
The map itself is also very barebones, but it's kinda fun to see what pokemon you can catch in each new area.
