I never got to watch most of Johto until recently due to Sweden skipping everything between the episode where Charizard starts obeying Ash and the beginning of Johto, everything between the Slowpoke Well episode and Whitney, and then the show went on a hiatus for two years and skipped straight from the battle against Morty to Adress Unown, but I was able to find Japanese episodes of the show on the internet and download them in .rm format back when Johto was about to end in Japan.
I loved Advanced Generation at first, even if I wasn't able to understand much of the plot without any subtitles (I can understand the dialogue nowadays, though), but it gradually got worse and worse after the rematch against Norman, and after how badly they handled the Kyogre and Groudon plot, and bullshit like thunder armor and Grovyle jobbing to a Luvdisc so Pikachu could take all the glory, I ended up dropping it after Ash defeated Juan.
I didn't start watching it again until Best Wishes 2, since while I hadn't watched D&P (Advanced Generation seemed great at the beginning only to turn into shit, so I didn't want to be fooled again), I was a bit interested in Dawn from what little I had heard about her.
Right now, I'm watching through Battle Frontier to see what I've missed.
