A Rift in Time... [SUDS}

[AWA1997]

Tony: The only people who can bleed out from that are hemophiliacs and those on blood thinners. Likewise, the only ones that fairy types can hurt are Dragons.

Dylan: *holds out Sylveon towards Anthony*
Sloane: Stop it, Dylan! You're scaring him!
Dylan: I'm a scary fairy!

Anthony: *rolls eyes* I said "can hurt". There are exceptions as some dragons are neutral to fairies. Plus, I'm not all dragons, I'm also draconians. *throws out Char* And my strongest partner isn't either one. *throws out Zuko* Fairies have no effect on me.

@AWA1997 -For the most part, Anthony's SU looks alright, though I'm a little confused as to how he can withstand going 6v1 with a team like that. That in itself kind of seems like a superpower. XD Also wondering how he'd managed to accomplish everything he has in his history in nine years. It seems like a bit much.
@Velocity If Jeanne is done (at the very least, she looks done), welcome to Team Galactic.

I mean if Ash can explore all the regions in less than a year I don't see why Anthony can't do what he did in nine. XD

The anime doesn't exactly have the best track record where logic is concerned, there's a reason I don't watch it. XD I have a tendency to end up shouting at the TV.

[AWA1997]

XD Good point, Jan.

The accomplishments is a matter of someone on youtube doing the math and saying Ash would've been 16 somewhere in Unova because he technically turned 11 during Johto and a few other factors, so I thought 19 was reasonable to hit all six.

The 6v1 is more a matter of him never having used his six strongest at once and all of his pokemon knowing his limits from training with him since they were little. I could make it so that 6v1 with this team overwhelms him and he has to cut back a bit (like, maybe 3v1?) because of this, though, if that helps.

The anime has actually made a turn around this region. Unova was just a huge low point. Kalos has taken all the best features of previous regions. The original theme song was actually a parody of the first ever Pokemon theme too. It has three companions, plus a sibling duo. A common trope for the side male that isn't annoying (since even though his inventions tend to blow up, they don't always do, which is nice). They brought back the whole one of the companions is a gym leader thing. Ash actually knows stuff about Pokemon like he did in Sinnoh. They reference past series as well, which is nice. We had a short Caterpie equivalent arc. They also don't always focus on ash for episodes too. So it's improved in many ways.

@AWA1997 it's not the adventuring in all regions that confused me. It was the top police unit training at fifteen and then becoming a gym leader eventually.

That makes slightly more sense.
@Noblejanobii There is a whole host of things about it that just rub me the wrong way. I guess when you turn a somewhat strategy based game into an anime, one should expect some things not to come into play, but...yeah. It irks me. Ash and Pikachu irk me. The pure lack of common sense in...a lot of cases irks me. Maybe it's because I think Unova was the last in the series my younger siblings watched or what have you, but it drives me nuts, and I just... No thank you. No.

Then again, I also keep finding myself wondering who in the heck thought that ten years old was a good age to let kids go out into the wild with essentially superpowered animals and journey on their own was a good idea.

[Noblejanobii]

Like I said, Unova was a HUGE low point in the series. I could barely tolerate it, but they've redeemed themselves greatly with Kalos. I was very proud that they didn't make the whole "a level 100 pikachu can't be a level 5 Snivy" mistake again. Even if you don't go back to watching it, I'll let you know it's improved in many ways.

I think ten because of the whole children demographic but I think the most concerning thing to me is Misty is a gym leader, but she's ten. If they can't start their adventure until they're ten, then how is she already a gym leader?
