I read THONX BEB in Kat Dennings's voice.

What a coincidence, I read it in the skinny blonde one's annoying voice.

TIL: James of Team Rocket was the ultimate Pokemon Trainer. The Pokemon whisperer, practically.

Apparently Jessie and James also have tragic backstories as well. I'd seen Meowth's tale, but for a long time I didn't know that the others even had characterization besides "bumbling villain".

Plus in the current season they are apparently like LEGIT villains. How messed up is it when the villains develop more than the protagonist?

Yamask? Chimecho? Cacnea? These are all terrible pokemon. James is a terrible trainer. At least Ash tries to be the very best, like no one ever was, by catching good pokemon. You pull out a Chimecho at the Pokemon League and you'll be laughed at all the way back to Pallet Town.

But did Ash ever win a Pokemon League?

PETA thinks they're all monsters.

The people, that is.

Didn't PETA have a Pokemon advertisement at one point?

In a world where the utility aspects of Pokemon actually come into play, I'd disagree. Wheezing always provided smokescreen for heists or escapes, his plant types often had things like Stun Spore to paralyze people, and Yamask can use Haze for a quick escape. So actually... he seems to pick up Pokemon that directly help with his job. It's just that Jessie and James SUCK at their job.

I'm pretty sure that James's Yamask tried to help suck everyone into the spirit world at some point, so there's that.

He won the Orange league. I stopped watching during Johto.

Dei · Aug 20, 2013

Well he lost the Sinnoh league to a guy who had 6 legendary Pokemon. The Orange League is such a weird league that I'm not sure it really counts.

(My daughter is obsessed with this show, I know too much now lol)

AshburnerX · Aug 21, 2013

Yes, Ash won the only League that doesn't exist in any game. I'm sure it wasn't just some feverish fantasy that we all got to enjoy.

You need pokeballs to get them.

If you understand cockfighting and rock paper scissors, you get pokemon. The rest is just noise.

I so will, from now on. Thanks, Internet!

Pretty sure that would just get you a groan and an eyeroll from a jaded cleaning staff.

I only did a cursory search for "WIFI in Heaven" by Robert Earl Keen, I could not find the video. Google-Fu fail.
