Regarding the Pokémon anime, where's Gary in all this? He was billed as Ash's main rival at the beginning of the series, being based on the in-game rival.

Do the G1 pokemon games let you pick whether you're a boy or a girl at the start of the game like the later games did? Or does that still come later?
That comes later, in the sequel. And as for Gary, he's still in the anime and gets eliminated in the Pokemon League semifinals by the guy Ash has to face in the finals. He's still an arrogant dick who rides in a Corvette with a bunch of cheerleaders, but after the Pokemon League he mellows out and helps Ash train for the Elite Four.
I also noticed something that may need to be corrected:
The OTL games never had a Team Rocket battle at the SS Anne. That was an anime only event.

For some reason I kept thinking Team Rocket attacked it in the game too. It's been a while. I went and corrected the post, thanks!
Bosch is too good to stay out of voice acting for much longer than he did IOTL, but for now Cardenas is the most well known former Power Ranger to do voice acting.
You might have been confused because they appear in both the anime and manga. I almost thought that they appeared in Pokemon Yellow, but research showed that I was wrong
I'm going to guess that the redemption of Giovanni (it just makes sense to have him become a recurring supporting character after he shuts down Team Rocket) is going to have major repercussions on the rest of the series. Especially since Giovanni has been the antagonist in some form or another since the series began. Plus I don't think a kid's show like Pokemon would include a plot involving Ash/Sato fighting his father. That seems like something more suited for a show for more mature audiences. This also means that there would need to be a substitute for Team Rocket in the anime. Maybe it should be a "Team Neo-Rocket" (or something else) formed by one of Giovanni's underlings without his blessing. This being that the earliest possible substitute in the games won't come until GIII with Team Aqua/Magma. And there's no guarantee that they'd exist at all due to butterflies.
Maybe Jessie and James should open up a restaurant or something in the second season. That way we can still involve them as recurring characters while still having them go legit.
I'm guessing that the mentions of "Ash" are a mistake, given how the protagonist of Pokemon is now named "Sato".

The second part of the season is when Sony creative starts to exert more influence on the anime. For later seasons, the writing will be entirely done by people closely associated with Sony and affiliated companies, they'll be borrowing writers from Tales of the Seven Seas and Ballistic Limit, so that will have a heavier influence on the anime and the game and they will go darker than OTL.
And I'll go back and correct those Ash mentions, thanks!
So darker storyline with a bit of Jessie & James's slapstick for some comedic relief? Keep in mind Pokemon still probably counts as a children's show, so it can't go too dark. It'd be excessive to turn the Pokemon anime into Inuyasha. What do you think of my "Neo-Rocket" idea? There'd need to be a replacement given how Giovanni willingly dissolved Team Rocket.
It won't be THAT dark, don't worry. And as for Neo-Rocket or any other ideas for anything post season 1, that's for the sequel...and NO sequel spoilers will be coming before they appear in the story proper
I won't even NAME the sequel. Not until Spaceworld in the October update.Wouldn't the other companies with the stake in the Pokémon IP also call the shots, or at least have the final say? OTL had Tsunekazu Ishihara at Creatures, and later Pokémon Company president, oversee how the IP could be expanded.
Creatures does have a veto, but as Sony creative has been working closely with Nintendo creative ITTL, it would be easier for Sony to convince them to allow the series to be taken in a slightly darker direction. Several close friendships have formed between Creatures/Game Freak/Sony people to the point where, for example, one of the lead scenario writers on Tales of the Seven Seas is best friends with Ishihara. It's kind of a collaborative effort. I'll go more in-depth with it when I discuss the writing process for the sequel, which Sony creative has much more to do with.
Well, you just butterflied away the Psychic-type I used to beat the Elite Four on my first play of Pokemon Red (Hypno).
THIS.
This timeline is best timeline.
Imagine my TTL self writing a ridiculously long fanfiction of TTL's Pokemon, which is practically OTL's Pokemon.

Okay, because I had an idea for a movie, but that should wait until the more appropriate time.
This is kind of hard to swallow for me. You're telling me that Mew, who was shoved in the last minute by Ishihara into that 300 bytes of space left over from the removal of the debug tools (especially after he was told not to), didn't cause any RNG glitches at all?
