For those who care about Pokemon

Ash's father was confirmed to be Giovanni, leader of Team Rocket, on the Japanease show last year, the U.S version should be dubbed soon, 4kids confrimed they are keeping it in the story.

I always suspected this, anyone else?

Not me! Of course, my head's been buried in Pokemon Crystal for the last umpteen years so....

*Tetsu Deinonychus* · 01-26-2004, 03:50 AM

WOW!

I wonder how that happened?!?!

He doesn't seem to be Sato's (Ash's real name is Satoshi) mom's type?

i never would have guesses it either....but i wouldn't go nuts about something that comes from this cartoon, according to this cartoon a pikachu can defeat a raichu, althiough its possible if the pikachu is in higher level, a pikachu can defeat a rhydon, and a charizard can evolve by just getting mad.....my point? this cartoon makes up a lot of crap..errr...things...i wouldn't expect it to be like that in the games...although i could be wrong, but i doubt so

Wow, I like how pokemon is getting a meaning now. Wait, does this some how remind you of star wars? lmao..

*The Defibrillator* · 01-26-2004, 11:28 AM

Very interesting. I haven't seen an ep of Pokemon since early 2002.

Well, seeing as Giovannai isn't in the series much anymore, and has only been in a couple hand fulls of episodes...... no.

I always suspected he was. It was kinda obvious =\.

*Anarky* · 01-26-2004, 12:55 PM

Then avoid threads about it like the plauge, instead of comming in here and slamming it.

*That Matt Guy* · 01-26-2004, 01:03 PM

I'm indifferent to it.

*Bowser_Koopa* · 01-26-2004, 01:03 PM

i'm not slamming it i'm just saying that most of it its cheesy

Shoot...Ash's father is team rocket's leader? Figures I guess...well now its ruined for me

Not that it matters since I'm not a BIG Pokemon fan although I find Team Rocket amusing enough to watch the show once in a blue moon.

Ninjatron · 01-26-2004, 03:47 PM

If this is true then kudos to 4Kids for not dumbing down or changing that point of the story in their version. That's a pretty bold move to make in a show for a younger audience.

Sayonara.

Amazing who would have guesses? Head of Team Rocket?! That's quite a suprise!

*Coola Yagami* · 02-01-2004, 09:35 PM

How was it revealed...? Does Ash know and how does he react???

And BTW I heard this rumor for years.. what the hell made ppl think of this connection anyway?

Meira-Bates · 02-02-2004, 12:06 AM

I don't really care about Pokemon but it's one of the shows I ended up having to watch when I was with my friends. I forgot what it was that made me think so, but I actualy suspected that connection when they showed those eps of mewtwo in the armor. X.x
