Sham

The Guardian of Ruin and Birth
I'm pretty sure it's because a ball is easier to animate.
How many “difficult” moves to animate have been used in innovative ways on this show? And it’s not like Volt Tackle and ElectroWeb are the most difficult things to animate especially when looking at others moves.

Hissssssssss I love Electro Ball

Electro Ball is just hated because of the series it's tied to. Quiet as it's kept it's been used way more in innovative ways than Volt Tackle and ElectroWeb.

My thing is that Electro Ball felt too redundant in the grand scheme of things compared to Thunderbolt or Electroweb being more useful

I acknowledge the variety of things Electroweb can do (even if it ultimately amounts to just a net or a spring 99% of the time) but nothing will beat Volt Tackle. Quick Attack should’ve been replaced by now imo
Pikachu should've had Extreme Speed.

Yeah, species can't learn that in the games but just a moveset change like they always do would in later games solves the issue. And it's not like it's impossible as Japan did had an event with an Extreme Speed Pikachu back in the gen 5 days (I remember because I wanted to have it :()
 

Ignition

We are so back Zygardebros

I agree. If it can learn a tutor move and Torracat can learn an Egg Move, I see no issue in it learning an event exclusive move. It’s not like they don’t have their own signature Z Move or something
 

Almighty Zard

He has returned.
noticed over in the next pokemon thread people were discussing barry potentially coming back.

there's only one thing i'd want him to come back for, along with Bianca.

have an episode with them both in it running towards Ash and him jump out of the way allowing them to crash into each other.

don't tell me that wouldn't be worth it.

JN Ash is too stupid to do that
 

masdog

I've said it before, and I'll say it again....

25 years is too long to keep a character around.
