I DETEST the new breed of computer animation TV Series and Films. For exaple Max Steel and Starship Troopers (TV Series). It's not animation, It's FAKE, Computer Generated and CRAP. OK Toy Story 1 was OK a good idear, a novalty but now this has gone to far.
All I can say is thank god for cartoons like POKEMON and The simpsons which continue to use True Animation!

Ok on first apperaance catching Pokemon or in the real world animals is not right, obviously. However even the youngest of children no it is wrong to catc animals and that the way that we aquire animals is by a Pet Shop, or a freinds animal etc. In Pokemons defense it does teach children how to look after and care for their animals and also shows the concequnces of this (if you watch more than one episode).
I do not Know the episode that you are refering to but Ash (the main Charactor) has looked after his Charizard through alls its various stages of development. For a Pokemon to develop it must be not only cared for but Trained. When Charizard went through it's final stage of development it gained an attitude problem (like human teenagers!) and this is why Ash would have been retraing Charizard. In a future episode Ash continualy cares for Charzard after it is injoured in battle. With Ash's determination not only did Charizard recover but it finaly fully respected Ash for making it well.
My final Point on Pokemon is that NO Pokemon EVER Die unlike other childrens TV progarams.

That's all Pokemon is about, anyway. Slavery. Getting other creatures to do your dirty work. Apparently, this should be applauded.

With the total animated partoons the stories are always pretty lame - However I expect that to change with full feature films such as Final Fantasy, etc...

I think the reason why cartoons like Max Steel and the like fail is because too much time is spent on the animation, and no thought is gone into the storylines etc.

We can all see that both these fundamental issues have been overlooked in Pokemon, yet it still became popular.

Luckily the hype is going away now.

When will the world learn.
