Pokemon Diamond & Pearl Cast List (WIP, Some Spoilers)

CabbyFish

It's B and it's W...
Now I know I'm starting this thread a little early, but since
Pokemon Diamond & Pearl
debuts in less than a month (and since several episodes will be airing back to back), I figure it's a little eaiser if I have the thread up with the priliminarys and when
Pokemon Diamond and Pearl
starts airing, I'd be able to update it on the fly. Now as long as nobody has any objections, feel free to comment (and I know a thread like this is really needed for those who ask whom voiced/voices whom); otherwise, close/move.

As with the one Shift made for Pokemon: Battle Frontier, this will be updated as episodes premire (usually on a weekly basis). The goal of this is to become a complete list of reliable information as to which actor voiced/voices each character. However, as we all are human, there are bound to be few mistakes from time to time, and any feedback on to whom you believe did/does the voicing of each character will be greatly appriciated. Currenty though, it should be pretty much complete except those that are considered "pending".

Also, so no one gets confused, the actors names will appear as they are credited onscreen when the credits roll for each episode. You'll see what I mean as you read the cast list.

So without further ado... The Cast List:

Key
Unknown: The VA for a character or Pokémon is currently indeterminable.
Pending: Character whos voice (or new voice) has yet to materalize.
Original: The original Japanese voice for a Pokemon was used.
Archive: A Pokémon's voice was pulled from previous English recordings.

The cast list (which will be kept in spoiler tags for now) covers
all 51 D/P episodes. (minus Pokemon)
As episodes air in the U.S., this cast list will be expanded and updated.

And yes, it is mostly based on the one Shift made. The only major difference is that I used dashes instead of colons, but I personally feel it all looks nicer that way. I'm only saying this now so no one rants at me about it. Anyways, enjoy it (or hopefully notice it).

I guess Shift is out of business? Anyway, I see the way you have it set up, so please leave it this way, it is much easier to read this way. Thanks You for doing this!

Not really, though I wish to do it in collaberation with him if such a thing is possible. I know with I as the main frame, the cast list will be able to get updated more frequently.

Looks good.


That may have been because I put the word pending with a capital p? Anyway, I fixed it.
 

Shift

I'll learn you good!
Why, I'd love to do a collaboration with you. And I'll start by providing my ideas for who voiced whom.
Dawn - Won't try just yet.
Paul - Julian Rebol(l)edo; I just searched up the name and found his to be the guy who played Jake Morgandorfer on Daria. Of course, I never saw the show, so I looked at a clip on Youtube and I think it's the same guy. He may have also played Prof. Rowan, but I can't be sure. I'm at least assuming he played Paul.
Piplup: Michele Knots
Chimchar: Bill Rogers
Turtwig: Jimmy Zoppi
Carnivine: Jimmy Zoppi
Starly?/Staraptor: Sarah Natochenny

That's all I've got so far. Sean Reyes and Emily Williams were also credited. But don't be too hasty to list here as Dawn; I'm not entirely sure they're the same.
 

KojiroJames2006

Prepare etc., etc.
Actual names of Billy Beach, Roger Parsons and Jamie Peacock

Billy Beach = Jimmy Zoppi
Roger Parsons = Ken Gates
Jamie Peacock = Kayzie Rogers

That is all.

I believe Emily Williams did Jenny, and I'm pretty sure Sean Reyes was one the assistants in the first part. I'm also thinking Ms. Knotz did Starly based on what I remember hearing from the third part. She did Jessibelle, Right? Oh, and Michelle Knotz's name ends with a z as far as I remember.

Giovanni was Bill Rogers, right?

I don't know who did Dawn either, but I'm certain it's not any of the credits you listed. I've updated my list a little bit, and I will finish updating it as soon as I can see the credits as a still image (if possible). To me, Dawn sounds like somebody I've heard from another show, and while you may be right about Paul, I'm not going to update it just yet until we're completely certain. After all, accuracy is important.

It looks like the anime is voiced by a group of 5 people only. Even the Pokemon´s voices are done by the same VAs as the main characters...o_O

It's B and it's W...
Ok, Following a Maiden's Voyage aired tonight, and I have updated my list a little bit. The same three people were credited under add. voices, but I'm not sure if any names were added to the main cast. If you happened to catch any new names under the main cast, please let me know, and I will get onto it. Also, please let me know if no new names were added so that I don't have to keep guessing.
 

CabbyFish

It's B and it's W...
someone on Bulbagarden forums caught it from the captions. I don't remember who exactly or if it's spelled right.

Update: O.k. I did my homework, and I realized that the same three people are sitting under add. voices for all three episodes. This means that each of them did at least one character in each episode. Also, no new names are listed in the main cast. In conclusion:

1) either Dawn and Paul's voices are not credited

or

2) There actors are sitting under add. voices

Oh, and before I forget, I did spell Marion right having seeing it straight from the close captions myself.
