That was kinda....eh. Just "eh." It could've sounded a little better (especially Snivy. That sounded like he had something in his nose). Kinda mad no Shooti voice.

That being said, hi original Japanese music.

Tepig's voice is average, Snivy's is a little too deep (but that shouldn't be a problem since.... well), but Oshawott's is adorable, I love it. Juniper's is nice as well, although I wish we could hear Shooti's.

And hooray for Japanese music being kept.

I really wasn't expecting the starters to sound that way. Hopefully Ash's female Snivy will sound different then that one.

Whatever happened to "not spoiling" guys?

Eh, the voices are ok

Hmm...thoughts. Well, I don't like Snivy's voice one bit. Oshawott and Tepig sounded exactly what I thought they would so no issue with me. Professor Juniper, I'm suspecting is done by Emily Bauer (who is Dawn and Cynthia), so not bad.

Nice to see CN teasing us with these trailers.

Well since its in english its not really spoiling anything. Oshawott sounds like it does in Japanese. I could careless about any of the other 165 pokemon lol

Oshawott actually sounds okay. Not as cute as "Miju Mijuma~" but not as annoying as "PIPLUPPIPLUPPIPLUPPIPLUP"

................"Tepig*oink*" Anyone else catch that?

OMG YES! I found it funny to be honest. If people think Pokemon has bad voice go watch Beyblade Metal Fusion!

Oshawott is, so, cute! I can't wait to hear Zorua and Zoroark when the movie premieres. Snivy isn't pronounced how I thought it would be, and it feels weird hearing Ash's voice in English again after watching so many subtitled episodes. I don't really like Tepig's voice, but I never really liked Tepig... But I'm so happy with Oshawott! It sounds better then I thought it would.

I was having a bad day until I read this :)

I thought the preview was ok. There really isn't any other way of saying it. I didn't love the voices, nor did I hate them. I guess I'm just feeling neutral. As for the music: I don't think we can use that one piece of music as evidence of what's to come. Just because they kept that piece of music from the original version of the anime, doesn't mean that they'll keep every single piece of music from now on. I mean, I would hope that it were the case, but I've learned not to expect much.

Tepig's voice is also awesome.
Snivy sounds cool as well!
Professor Juniper sounds awesome :D!

Ash sounds awesome as well. Sarah sounds really good as his voice now.

Don't feel bad I do too. It's not that I'm trying to be a downer but when I hearing her voice I love most of my interest in the show. Voices in a show really matter to me and I'm not feeling hers. One of the things that irk me is that she puts WAYYYYY to much emphasis on certain words or phrases. The preview wasn't bad but I'll stick to the raws and subs.

Yeah, ok!
Sarah's Ash is perfectly fine now. The only time it was hard to listen to was back in Battle Frontier when she first started.

Ash actually sounds like an energetic kid, he's perfectly fine. Think of all the alternate voices other cartoon characters have had, Ash is no different.
