Plubby Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 I can't help but feel that if you're looking for realism then perhaps Pokemon is the wrong place to start your search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drock007 Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 What's the difference between Pokemon Yellow and Pokemon Red and Blue? I know Pikachu follows you around and i know Team Rocket is in it but is there any other differences? Storyline or otherwise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apsham Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 You get the three standard starters at one point or another, I remember that... otherwise I'm blank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plubby Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 It COULD be though. ...no, it couldn't. It's very premise is utterly fantastical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berober Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Yellow has Jessie and James show up as recurring henchmen, and yeah, the Pikachu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sousa Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 It COULD be though.I've run the science and much of the science of the Pokemon games checks out, it's in the cartoon where they just throw it out the window. Makes it really unbelievable. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleX Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Also in Yellow your rival starts with an Eevee, and the evolution he gets depends on whether you win or lose some if the battles with him along the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 MY CARTOON ABOUT ANIMALS AND SOMETIMES NOT ANIMALS THAT REDUCES THEM TO THEIR MOLECULAR STRUCTURE FOR EASE OF TRANSPORT IS NOT SUFFICIENTLY REALISTIC~! AND ANOTHER THING WHY HASN'T ASH BEEN ARRESTED YET FOR TELLING PIKACHU TO THUNDERBOLT TEAM ROCKET ALL THE TIME?! I mean holy shit, guys. Is it a bad thing if I hold my cartoons to a higher logical standard? :/ No, but seriously, I love the cartoon, it's goofy as all fuck but it doesn't make it bad. My only issue is that it doesn't even stick to the basic rules it sets out for itself most of the time, but it's not like I'm about to declare a sabbatical unless they book young rookie Bonnie to overcome the odds at PokéMania 151 against returning part timer Misty after 10 years out of dis anime business. This isn't The Ring, Plubby, don't try and make it into it What's the difference between Pokemon Yellow and Pokemon Red and Blue?

Benji Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 I just want logic, damnit, it's not too much to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plubby Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 There's nothing illogical about it! It's inconsistent with the games, but not illogical! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
