Pidgey was easier to encounter, Blue used it, and Ash had the line in the anime, including the famous scene when he released it. Also, Spearow served as the anime's first villainous Pokemon with Fearow playing a prominent role in Pidgeot's release episode.

It was probably not intentional but I do like the concept of starting in Antioch as that was the city where Christians were first called Christians. The Eastern Mediterranean could use some Pokemon love.

True. But a Russian region would be based on the Moscow/St. Petersburg/Novgorod areas with a slice of Siberia. You know, the recognizable sections with known landmarks. Not obscure territories.

Welcome to the Kalos Krusaders. Your certificate is in the mail. Also, agree with you on Mewtwo. There is nothing in the original games that connect him with Team Rocket.

Good grief, folks. Must we always do this? Someone slanders XY and I have to return to set things right.

What a fat Ash.

As a kid, I never thought they were always but donuts due to the design. While the dub didn't need to change the name from rice balls to donuts, the substitution, at least, made visual sense.

Brave and the Bold is the best Batman cartoon ever. It gave us Batman and Abe Lincoln fighting John Wilkes Booth.

If it wasn't first, it wouldn't be the Gen 1 of our timeline. So we have no idea if it would be beloved or not.

Russia and Israel were almost added to Epcot's World Showcase in the 80s or 90s. Obviously now, the two countries will not be included there or in a Pokemon game. Which is a shame due to the interesting settings. I have always thought Ethiopia or the Balkans would make for a cool region. Or...

Unfortunately, his fan base mainly existed back in the 1400s when knights and chivalric romances were all the age. Or the 1800s with the Romantics and Victorians. But this modern day knight loves him!

Disappointing finale. Pidgeot returning is nice, but I guess fueling Kanto nostalgia was more important than ensuring all the prior companies received some attention. At least, Ash won the World Title.

Hawlucha is returning? Huzzah! The poster has a Charizard and a Pikachu. Ah, Pokemon.

Designs have been 80% poor since Gen 7 started.
