Well it has been revealed today that no new AG Episodes will air on the 6th and 13th of April as the usual April specials are airing in the first two weeks, on the 6th its for another Program, but on the 13th its the special "Pokémon Ranger! Deoxys Crisis".
Last year there was a one week break between the Clip Show and the Special 2 hour event featuring the entire Grand Festival and the 6th Movie

The episode before this is the Battle Tower battle

I always wonder if they plan for these occasions since they are making us wait before Ash gets his final symbol
 

CyberCubed

Yeah, ok!
We haven't lost episodes though, they're just delayed...jeez, this gap happens every year

I know, but had there been no gap there would inevitably be two episodes here since we get new episodes almost all year round.

I feel like we lost an episode with Ash and co. because of the Ranger special instead.

We don't get it all year round.

Because they showed new episodes three times a week it keeps going back to the beginining as it were. Why did Sky One have to sell the rights.

I did a little bit of counting, and here's the episode totals for each year. I didn't count Shuukan Pokemon Housoukyoku specials or movies.

2003 = 51 episodes
2004 = 51 episodes
2005 = 50 episodes

We haven't had a 52-episode year in a while, so I'm not surprised that we won't be getting 52 episodes in 2006.

Good GOD I hate it when this time of the year rolls around. The speculation threads for the episode airing at the end of the break are usually filled with anxious and stupid theories/speculation as those that can't handle going a week without Pokemon Spoilers break down. :/

*remembers when there was a two weak break before the Tetsuya episode* :<

Funnnngaaaaa
I hated that, waiting a 2 weeks to find out the Hoenn League Conclusion.

At least were missing less then last year, wasn't it like 3 weeks without a episode (Cept the Clip Show).

So, are they gonna show 3 episode a day again?

If we're getting a special who cares. It probably has Speed Form Deoxys which is cooler than any contest anyway -__-.

There's still the matter of Diamond/Pearl being released, and that any current plots would have to end immediately in favor of adapting those games the week they're released. This two week delay means two less episodes before the innevitable Diamond/Pearl arc, I think that's what CyberCubed meant.
 

.Bambi.

Be Wise, Tell Lies.
God I hate when I have to wait 2 or 3 weeks instead of one for an episode. It' really does suck *thinks of the torture last year before the Grand Festival*

I can understand that the Deoxys Special would take up the normal Pokemon timeslot, but twice in one month? That means only 2 episodes for April D:
At least this little break is happening after the Anabel Battles, though. That's a positive.

Can we confirm whether there will be a similar situation to what happened with the GF when there was a long break and then got 3 episodes in a row. Unless the hour long ranger special is supposed to make up for two weeks of missed episodes.

So what ever ep is after the battle tower we have to wait...

also meaning using that two week gap we usuallly would have got a title by now..but i gues due to that gap they might wait a while..

but i can't wait to see the air pokemon special on the 13th...totally can't wait

No new episodes (every thursday) in Japan on April 6th and 13th doesn't mean that USA or other countries (UK, etc.) won't get new episodes (every saturday). Is that correct? (At least I think that's what I'm trying to say)

Worst case scenario: We get a meaningless episode after a 2 week wait. Talk about a bad welcome home.
 

CyberCubed

Yeah, ok!

If the summary in the other thread is proven to be true, the next episode could see the return of Ash's Squirtle and Ash's training for the Battle Pyramid.
