Liko>>>>>Ash
Best series are still Battle Frontier, Kanto&Orange Islands, and DP for me. Everything else is mediocre at best to plain awful imo.
So far everything about this remains, probably Journeys and XY a bit lower as they really aged not as good as the other seriesDamn, the hate is still visible. I think I should be a bit more benevolent with my previous rankings:
- SM - 8.2/10:
Thanks Journeys for that episode in Alola, showing continuity and consistency with the end of the series- DP - 8.0/10: Especially after rewatching some episodes and looking that even the fillers were not bad for 10 years of the same formula. Also I'm valuing Ash and Paul's rivalry a bit more)
- AG Battle Frontier - 7.7/10, the same as before
- JN - 7.0/10: This is still a very confident rank, but I think the overall episodes in the series are good (Except some fillers). If JN was better as a whole series instead of individual episodes, its ranking could be higher.
- XY - 6.8/10: After rewatching some episodes, I don't feel the same rewatched value that other regions had like DP, probably because the hype was gone especially during XYZ.
- OS Orange Islands 6.7/10: I still think this is probably the most underrated season in the anime. Also I'm valuing Ash VS Drake better than before, for the first full battle in the anime, it was very good.
- AG Hoenn League: 6/10, the same as before
- BW Unova League 5.9/10, previously I said that it feels like OS Kanto League again, but certainly it made things better, also I enjoyed the tounrmantes during this series.
- OS Kanto League 5.7/10, the same as before
- OS Johto League 5.5/10, the same as before
- BW Decolora Islands 2.5/10: Ok I was a bit unfair with this ranking before.
So far I saw a lot more interest for Iris' return than Korrina, and Korrina was very popular during the XY days, probably more than Iris during the BW daysjust my opinion but I really think XY has aged quite well, there's a reason people still have a lot of her in mind and look forward to anything from Kalos, On the contrary, when something from Unova or Alola comes back, it doesn't generate hype in majority of people, I think.
that's like comparing serena with some unova leaderSo far I saw a lot more interest for Iris' return than Korrina, and Korrina was very popular during the XY days, probably more than Iris during the BW days
I mean most people love DP and a decent part of them also agree than XY is overrated, particulary in the Spanish fandom. So it is not like it is exclusive to AG or SM fansthat's like comparing serena with some unova leader
I always see that people, mostly outside the fandom, have as much esteem for XY as they do for DP and even more, I don't see that happening with other series, in fact, fans of AG and SM almost always say that their seasons are underrated and that XY is overrated, which may be true but still makes me more right because because most people love series like OS or XY, although I really don't know if DP is called overrated all the time but still is very loved but that's just me
My favorite series is XY and I think it’s overratedI mean most people love DP and a decent part of them also agree than XY is overrated, particulary in the Spanish fandom. So it is not like it is exclusive to AG or SM fans
I agree that XYZ is overrated (focused way to much on Greninja and the league sucked)I think XYZ is overrated
XY's first two seasons and the first three Mega evolutions deserve a lot of praise imo and rightfully get it a lot of the time
Sure there were still missteps for me like Serena and Goodra, but overall the first 2 seasons were great and none of those issues would have mattered if third season aka XYZ delivered properly. Unfortunately I found it rushed af, more hype then substance and ultimately unsatisfying
I'd also controversially say AG, minus the BF aspect is overrated as well. May's rivals were a highlight but don't do that much when imo their best moments come in BF anyway and contests + Mays arc imo sucked. It was funny at times though that I'd say
I know, but these are subjective opinions and I am not defending that it is not overrated, I'm just saying that the fact that it is so loved (overrated or not) gives me the reason that it evolved well over time, this pattern is more noticeable when you ask people who are not inside the fandom. Just look at the IGN poll for an example, XYZ came in first place with much difference.I mean most people love DP and a decent part of them also agree than XY is overrated, particulary in the Spanish fandom. So it is not like it is exclusive to AG or SM fans
I wholeheartedly agreeSomething that’s always bothered me is when people bring up the fact that Serena and Clemont only talked every dozen episodes unless pertaining to Ash, people have this weird obsession claiming that the DP trio’s group dynamic was bad because Dawn and Brock weren’t particularly that close. Dawn brought up Brock twice during her appearances in each saga and they clearly had dynamics beyond Ash. I’m not sure why people bring this up instead of just admitting that the XY group had the worse interaction dynamic in the history of Pokémon.
That was a great thing about the Alola gang.Something that’s always bothered me is when people bring up the fact that Serena and Clemont only talked every dozen episodes unless pertaining to Ash, people have this weird obsession claiming that the DP trio’s group dynamic was bad because Dawn and Brock weren’t particularly that close.
