I am going to have to go with 4kids. I do not like TPCI's selection for voices of female caracters (except Dawn, I could not imagine her with anything different, not that I know who she wold be done by if DP was 4kids dubbed,) so I HATE the episodes with May/Delia in them, as I did grow very VERY fond of Veronica Taylor's job as those two characters. Delia/Johanna sound identical to me by the way, I mean, is this the new generic "Mother" voice? Also, I grow annoyed with Jessie's, at least Rachel Illis didn't sound so damn whiney when she voiced her. [GULP] Do not want to hear the new Misty then. Can not stand Prof. Oak anymore. Don't even get me started on James...
Actually, I have no serious complaints about Sinnoh-specific characters, well, maybe Nando, too, "pixy" like. Barry's voiced like how he should be, hyperactive. Paul's got that certain arrogance he requires.
It's mainly just, most characters WERE voiced better by their original voice actors (Meowth is the exception, I am aware of Maddie Baustein's fine work, so she was better than his original, Nathan Price). (Ted Lewis instead of Eric Stuart and Billy Bleach for James)
For dialog, I dunno. Both dubs are still infamous by the characters pointing out obviousness. But in my opinion, I think I prefer TPCI on this one, except for TR scenes.
For the opennings, a bit mixed really. The very first one, is simply epic. Johto Journeys (the FIRST Johto season) seems to have a growing hold on me, at its peak for me when HG/SS were released here in Australia. Did not like any of the AG ones actually, and then came the dub change with Battle Frontier. Not the greatest, but better compared to any Hoenn theme song. Did not like any DP themes, until then and only then was "Battle Cry~Stand Up!" I loved that. But, I am disappointed in TPCI for no more than 30 seconds instead of the Japanese ones of nearly two whole minutes.I would go with 4kids, even though they got a bit bland after Johto Journeys.
That's what I think, I'm not wrong or right, as its just one's opinion. Do not bash me.
