I could name all 150 original Pokemon, what they evolve into/from and their special attacks....

But I can also name all four Teletubbies, their favorite custard and how they like their toast cooked hehe!

And in Bob the Builder that woman who does Wendy's voice also did Getups voice in the Animal Shelf...

I am so sad.

I only know one Pokemon: the Wavermon. It evolves into the dreaded Wankerchu with its Rear-Facing Noxious Flame Attack!

Okay, that was uncalled for, I admit. I'm sorry.

I'm just feeling feisty tonight.

Having a six year old I spent two years learning Pokemon with him then just as I was getting there he decided he was now into Digimon aarrrggghhh! So, he is on his own now! hehe!

But I must admit Pokemon are quite fun - and you should have seen me with his gameboy! Such tactics!

He got so frustrated at the final battle that I spent two hours doing it for him (8 or 9 resets) Once I had finished he realised it was achievable and did it first time through!

(he was four at the time!)

I am still not sure about the new style graphics of cartoons such as Pokemon or Digimon though - I must be getting old...

My fave Pokemon has to be Mewtoo for power - he can take on the league by himself with a couple of potions. High exp and high hit points and his 'Psychic' attack can take out most in one hit...

The cool thing about Pokemon is that they do not die - they only faint. This is much easier and less frustrating for a six year old...

I can't believe I am talking about Pokemon!!!

LMAO 'run for your lives, it's Wankerchu'

@Yshania , my little girl favorite was Mewtoo as well.

lol Weasel!

I was so disappointed to watch the first movie and find out he was a baddy - twisted by human meddling! hehe! At least it worked out well in the end with the help of Mew!

The cats rule!...

I wonder if any of my BG2 chars ever get turned to stone (like Ash Catchum) the tears of my summoned beasties might have the same effect of stone to flesh! hehe!

Team Rocket are blasting off again.....

@Yshania: I am glad to hear that you have a 6-year-old. I was starting to wonder about you and your (too) extensive knowledge children's trendy minutiae! (I know the words to most of the songs in Bear and the Big Blue House thanks to my toddler)

Buu is a very funny villain from all DBZ series

But SS3 Goku only make small appearance on the series if my memories serves me well

The only Pokemon get soooo popular in my country here is Pikachu.

Slade's (I always liked the American name better since Blade is fairly generic in action shows) sister's name was Shara (at least in the U.S.). UPN canceled the show after the first season in America so I had to get tapes from my comic book shop to see the secod season.

I heard they made a Tekkaman Blade 2 miniseries but I've never seen it.

LOL Gwalchmai!

The Bear in the Big Blue House is HORRIBLE!! almost as bad as Barney. My youngest is 3 and a half and thankfully past those!

Nightmare · Post by **Nightmare** » Mon Jun 25, 2001 3:52 pm

Simpsons (rules)
South Park (some are hiliarious)
Dilbert
Futurama
DBZ (the first 25 episodes, after that it's crap)
Batman Beyond

k, I might be flamed, but here goes: I personally HATE pokemon. The shows, the toys, movies, I laugh at everyone who adds the blasted hype. The only good part of pokemon is the original game. The gameboy game is amazing. Everything else is ****. Sorry, but this is my opinion.

No, I'm sorry, Bear is almost tollerable, but Barney is by far the worst! (IMHO) Those overacting kids with their plastic smiles just drive me nuts! Fortunately, my daughter is getting past Bear and Barney both (its Blues Clues right now), but I have a younger daughter that still has to go through it.

Fortunately for me my now 3.5 yr old grew out of the Tubbies by 2 and into Disney films. I like the Disney films...

A well meaning friend (!!??!!) bought my son a Barney video for his 2nd birthday - we left it over at grannies for his visits there! (as we did with a singing teddy bear and a drum hehe!)

A side note for those bad cartoon :
Pokemon is bad. Why ? because the producers mostly looking for a big hit on the item sales. Take example of those trading cards, DAMN they just keep making those monsters and the worst is children loves them. How about those underpaid parents ? I sympathise them for becoming victim of Pokemon execs.

As for TeleTubbies is a real bad thing ever happen to children.
