Niiiiiiiiice.

 

[QP3]

Wow, I have never once been interested in the anime but I shall watch this!

 

[foxuzamaki]

Is Gary in it?

gary is blue/green

 

[Brazil]

HOLY CRAP

Now that's a megaton.

 

[ffdgh]

There's not enough what to describe this

Edit: Red looks off...

 

[quickdevilred]

Will they have a Pokemon battle on top of wild Onyx's over a vat of acid?
More importantly, will he be using Squirtle, THE BEST POKEMON

based on the pics im guessing red chooses charmander

 

[Raonak]

megaton!

red looks lame though. :/

 

[Box of Bunnies]

I'm pretty hyped, even if it is just a couple episodes long special or a miniseries or whatever.

Blastoise looking boss as usual.

 

[Cbajd5]

EVERYONE PANIC

the question now is will it be dubbed

 

[PhantomOfTheKnight]

This is basically the first thing to make me interested in Pokemon in over a decade.

Well played, Nintendo

Suddenly I'm back into Pokémon

Please be like Pokemon Adventures. An anime based off that would make my life complete.

All of my this.

 

[dragonlife]

I'm getting goose bumps.

I hate being excited for things =/

 

[Mellahan]

EVERYONE PANIC

the question now is will it be dubbed

also i'm reading elsewhere it'll air wednesdays in october (starting october 2nd) but don't trust me because i don't trust the internet

Honestly, I don't care either way. Someone will sub it no matter what.

 

[Frostinferno]

Red looks a lot less cool than I would've liked, but still, this is baller news.

 

[kittens]

I've always loved the games, always hated the anime. I'll give it a shot, though.

 

[Baron von Loathsome]

I haven't been interested in any anime since elementary school, but dang, I actually want to see how this turns out.

 

[Shengar]

On the one hand I'm glad they didn't make him look all stoic and badass like all the stupid bishonen fanart these days.

On the other hand, why does he look like such a little pisher?

Its called Pixiv!Red. It seems they picked a mix between Classic!Red and FRLG!Red. I don't care which, I don't care what getting animated, how Red looks, as long as it doesn't have As* in it I'm happy.

 

[BLACK AMERICAN PSYCHO]

HOLY SHIT
ash am I cry

 

[L Thammy]

based on the pics im guessing red chooses charmander

So you're saying that the anime will be shit?

 

[Revven]

red looks lame though. :/

Pretty sure it's because they based Red's design off of the FR/LG version. Which decidedly looks less badass than the original Red design (at least, IMO, the hat in the newer design is really uncool looking to me lol)

 

[Coldnoodle]

Time to get into the Pokemon anime again.

 

[TimmiT]

Holy shit, a new Pokemon thing I'm actually interested in! :O

 

[Cbajd5]

Honestly, I don't care either way. Someone will sub it no matter what.

But I want to hear dubbed voices.

It's always fun.

 

[jj984jj]

gary is blue/green

Well that sucks. I don't mind them changing the protagonist to be more like the games, but it'll be weird seeing anyone but Gary as Oak's grandson.

 

[BLACK AMERICAN PSYCHO]

based on the pics im guessing red chooses charmander

Like every non lame person does.

 

[cosmicblizzard]

WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

 

[Tecl0n]

Lance's Theme/10.

 

[Shellshock929]

Wow, I'm surprised that we're getting this. Wonder how this will turn out.

 

[pelicansurf]

So is this based off the manga/electric pikachu bugaloo? If so...

Fuck yes. The art definitely leads me to believe this.

 

[ScraftyDevil]

Like every non lame person does.

Oy! Bulbasaur is clearly the best choice of Gen I starter!

 

[Avixph]

But I want to hear dubbed voices.

It's always fun.

It would probably be the same voice actor for Ash and you would like it.

 

[Venin]

isn't ash supposed to be red? blue looks exactly like Gary.

You know not what you are unleashing with your words.

 

[Bucket Mouse]

Red should look like this.

 

[TWILT]

HE HAS FUCKING RETURNED.

 

[Jotamide]

Get outta here Ash *pushes him to the side*

"You've a looser."

 

[cool_dude_2049]

Plz be on Crunchyroll!!!!

 

[Yasumi]

If they actually turned this into a proper 26 episode series, it might have the potential to be a pretty decent anime.

 

[Shengar]

Pretty sure it's because they based Red's design off of the FR/LG version. Which decidedly looks less badass than the original Red design (at least, IMO, the hat in the newer design is really uncool looking to me lol)

To be frank, FRLG Red look a lot better than the original. Maybe its because Ken Sugimori evolving art style. I think the one you thought badass is Pixiv!Red which is based on Classic!Red with more bishounen style (mostly).

 

[Schadenfreude]

Why are people hating on Red? Dude looks perfect. He's never been a stone cold badass. Red is just some kid from some hick town.

 

[Tawney Bomb]

Hopefully this is a series and not a one off, sounds awesome.

 

[Cbajd5]

It would probably be the same voice actor for Ash and you would like it.

but that'd be boring

because ash's voice is boring

booooooooring

I hope it's like the BW2 animated trailer.

 

[BY2K]

Red's design is shit.

 

[ChitoCrisis]

This is awesome!

I wonder if Missingno will make an appearance. >__>

 

[FlynnCL]

Huh, I wasn't expecting something like this. Very cool!

 

[Byronic Hero]

I haven't watched Pokemon in ages, if this is a full series, I'll definitely be watching.

 

[Azure J]

This is actually fucking happening.

asdfghjkl;'[poiuy

 

[Ahasverus]

Imagine if they get to the Gold/Silver arc. Or the Lavender town episode with zombie pokemon and stuff #DEAD

 

[hosannainexcelsis]

Hopefully this is a series and not a one off, sounds awesome.

From the Japanese phrasing, it looks like an ongoing series. Definitely not a one off.

 

[sixteen-bit]

dat Gen 1

 

[Verelios]

You have piqued my interest OP.

In that case: YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

 

[Shengar]

Why are people hating on Red? Dude looks perfect. He's never been a stone cold badass. Red is just some kid from some hick town.

Maybe some expect him to resemble his Pixiv persona, which admitenly the one who responsible for his badass persona on the internet.

But its a new anime that doesn't have As* in it damnit! I don't care how Red suppose to be in this, I'm happy anyway.
