The Pokemon/Digimon Discussion!

[wolfclaw]

This is NOT a debate. There was always controversy between these two, and I just felt like discussing it.

I think Pokemon had better games, whereas Digimon has better shows. I think Digimon has a better overall plot. I like both, though. They are not copy-offs of eachother,they are both very creative and original ideas!

Okay, I admit it; I've never seen Digimon. So I can't really say that Pokemon's better. ( I have before).

[wolfclaw]

You never saw Digimon? You can see it on Youtube.

[K.]

That's weird.... You're not suppose to be able to watch it on YouTube.... Anime's not allowed on there. (Which is a shame, because my friend needs to finish watching one, but it's not there anymore. ._.)

But ohhh, StarClan, I love them both so much. But I agree with you Wolfy, Digimon has the better anime. The first of the Pokemon anime was much better compared to later ones, though. Plus the dubbing companies are slaughtering them. D'=

I kind of like Digimon's ideas and plots a bit more though. The entire idea of Digimon drew me into the Fandom for life. x3 I was--and still am--fasinated by electronics, and a series about creatures created from a digitized world was like a religion for me. And sometimes Digimon's animation looks better. Pokemon is just continuing, and continuing, and CONTIUING their plot about Ash. I'm almost sick of him. Digimon has a timeline, so time passes and we get new groups in new seasons.

But I gotta love Pokemon more sometimes. The games are more fun because they don't really have an ending point. You're always continuing them. That is, until some imsdfi4*&Y$30 kid decides its funny to steal all your games and lose them.

I know that the different Pokemon manga focus on different characters, so I like those more than the anime too.


Oh! And Spotty, the first episode of Digimon.

Don't judge it by the freaky themesong.... XD

[Swimsoul]

Hmmm...I've never really cared for Digimon. While Pokemon's my life. =/

[[spotty]]

I will watch it soon! But I'm only on for a few minutes right now. Thanks!

Okay, I don't want to decide between the 2, but I have to say that digimon is a lot better. It has different characters, while Pokemon continues with Ash, who should be like 15 by now. But Pokemon is a little more diverse, because of all the different species of Pokemon and its popularity. Because of Jetix leaving ABC family and going to Toon Disney, Digimon is losing all its fans because many don't have the 3000 channel cable(like myself. I hate politicians deciding there should be different cables). But I still stay interested. I used to know all the themes and all the main characters and Digimon of the main charries. But,(again, stupid cable!) I forgot all of it by february. But I do know I watched it over pokemon. But pokemon's games are better, unless you get stuck.( I still can't find the Sky Tower to get Rayquaza(I don't get why they say Ray-quay-za, I think it should be Ray-qua-za)

[wolfclaw]

XDDD Dang, you will be AMAZED how many Digimon are actually there, Snowy! Only a few of them are in the anime and games. This is a list... (well, since the DigiPort is in maitenance this is not completed) www.thedigiport.com/dex/

Anime is not allowed? XDDDD I LAUGH! There's sooo much anime...Death Note, Digimon, Pokemon, Naruto....*the list goes on =O*

And it is Ray-quay-za

[Snowywhisker]

Ikno!! so many digimon...but I did kno many. stupid memory loss. and I hate that its Ray-quay-za. I think Ray-qua-za sounds better.

Awww I was going to watch the digimon episode that moss-shadow gave me on youtube, but it has been "removed due to terms of use violation"

[wolfclaw]

HEY DIGIMON, HEY DIGIMON! XDDDDDD ULTIMATE FRIENDS OF THE BOYS AND GIRLS! HEY DIGIMON, HEY DIGIMON! CHAMPION OF THE DIGITAL WORLD!

Seven young kids go to camp for the summer....*sings on while everyone moans*

Yeah, since technically I don't think you're allowed to record episodes and put them up. And dangit, I know soooo many Digimon.

WHAT??! D=< And I thought I hated YouTube BEFORE.... *grumbles*


I used to know all of the themesong.... XD Now I've forgotten most of it. -_-;

Ash must be immortal, too.... o.0

[wolfclaw]

XDDDDDDD He has to be in high school right now...he started when he was 10...

And Oak? He should be dead....XD

[Snowywhisker]

True dat.

[wolfclaw]

Dangit, I love Pokemon's MOVIES though, and Digimon's movies. 4Ever was really sad, and Pokemon 2000 and Power of the Unown were really good.
