>>58116446>I also remember seeing some /vp/ posts whining about AG being a downgrade compared to JohtoThose people are full of shit. The last time I did a rewatch of the full series, Ash only had 2 Johto badges before I was begging for May to show up already because the Ash-Brock-Misty dynamic had become so painfully stale. By contrast, I never grew tired of May, Dawn, Iris (it's true), Serena, Bonnie, or the Alola girls in their respective series. Misty is the only character who ever felt like they'd overstayed their welcome. Even Brock, four generations in, never reached that point for me, even when he kinda stopped doing much besides provide exposition for the TV audience during Ash's battles.
>but I'm too lazy to rewatch the anime myself to decide whether Johto was a slog or le hidden gemIt was a slog. The best parts of Johto were the 3 movies and the Johto League.
