Do You Remember That Cartoon...?

[StevenRichardsRules]

Does anyone remember that cartoon in which it always started off with the good guys getting in a rocket ship, going around a track and launching into a black hole to go to another world or dimension? I recall the baddies doing something similar.

The show was kinda like Pokemon, only with cards. The main characters swiped their card to call a monster or something.

Do you guys remember what show that was?

YUGIOH? Just a guess really, I know it had something to do with cards and monsters.

[Kyle_]

Digimon?

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

Definitely not Digimon.

Monster Rancher?

[Adam]

Monster Rancher and Yu-Gi-Oh were the first ones to come to mind for me. I dont think itll have been the latter though, as that was definitely not set in an alternate world.

Monster Rancher did take place in an alternative word, but i can't remember any rocket ships.

[StevenRichardsRules]

No, none of those. It wasn't on for too long, maybe only a season or two. I don't think it had too much success.

It was on that Fox Kids channel, if it helps.

[Adam]

I think all the shows that have been mentioned were on Fox Kids bar Yu-Gi-Oh >_<

I'll have to rack my brain some more, I'm sure I'll know it when someone figures it out.

[Walker]

I just thought ... Card Captors or Duel Masters.

Card Captors

In a rocket ship, he said?

lol, no.

[Matt]

Any idea when this would've been? I'm assuming it was Japanese type anime as opposed to Scooby Doo type cartoons.

[stokeriño]

There are about a bajillion very-similar 80s cartoons to choose from. Unfortunately I can hardly remember any of them, which doesn't help.

[Guest Mr. Potato Head]

Based on the FOX Kids note and SRR being roughly my age, I'm assuming anime or anime-inspired, probably 2000-ish.

[stokeriño]

Well...

Mon Colle Knights

or maybe:

Shinzo

?

Mon Colle Knights sounds very familiar.

EDIT: Yup, that's it. What the hell was it about again?

The series features Mondo Ooya and his girlfriend Rockna Hiiragi, whose father invented a way to travel to Mon World (Roku Mon Sekai: the Six Gate World), where all sorts of magical creatures live. Together, they try to find six monster items which, when combined, could merge the Six Gate World with planet Earth for the better of both worlds. Rockna and Mondo form the Mon Colle Knights, and when chanting a phrase they can merge into monsters and control them into battle as well as aid with spells. Almost every episode, they battle Prince Eccentro (Count Collection in the Japanese version) and his two lackeys who are after the same thing as the Mon Colle Knights, except that they intend to use the items to dominate both worlds.

Or so says Wikipedia.

This is the show I watched growing up. Nothing else compares...

Wolverine being in the medical bay every other episode - priceless.
