>>43965982I wonder which event impacted their season the worst.
>the Porygon episode put the anime on almost a half year long hiatus during which it became very clear that Pokemon was becoming way too big for the anime to stick to its original plans which resulted in so many filler episodes before reaching Blaine and the unsatisfying Indigo league>the earthquake made them scrap the whole Rocket vs Plasma arc which was the main story for Unova and Team Plasma ended up not showing up until after the league was finished.But I guess it's really hard to imagine what the anime would be like if Kanto had continued its pacing and Ash beat Gary during the league finals.
