I stopped watching after the Johto arc ended (stopped getting the channel). Looking back, the anime was never very good at all.

....that said, holy shit, what happened? X and Y is awesome. How long has it been like this? Should I go back and start from 3rd gen?

Gen 4 & 5 anime was shit. Just enjoy the current anime season.

Going back to watch the hoenn episodes can be fun I guess, but XY is still usually better.

I thought gen 5 was pretty good. Team Rocket became likable.

Advance Generation was a hit or miss with certain episodes, but good.

Gen 4 was fucking amazing, gif related.

Gen 5 was pretty bad.

I have to admit, the anime has gone a long way. I had to stop in the middle of the Johto arc as well when it was the gang constantly falling into pitfalls and no interesting plot whatsoever. No wonder why pokemania died in gen 2 in the west.

No. There was a handful of good episodes, but its not worth digging through the filler to get to them. If you must, just watch the tournament arcs.

AG is worth watching for May alone. Ash's Hoenn Pokemon are cool too.

bulbapedia has a list of non-filler episodes in the anime. It really fixes the pacing issues at least, by like, a fucking lot.

The site is down right now for maintenance, just type in "list of events in the pokemon anime", and it'll come up.

While its still nothing to get really excited about, XY anime IS better than the last few seasons. If only becauses its a competent Ash who has a tendency to do shonen protagonist stuff like jump off cliffs to rescue pokemon.

I've started going through XY from the start recently, its decent enough to have on in the background while you're reading or playing games, and thats the best its been in a long time.

You forgot to mention that the animation is on par with the older movies.

The only movies I've watched are the first two, and that was so long ago I cannot remember the quality, so I'll take your word for that.

At the very least, watch the gen 4 league battles.

I'm watching Hoenn (Advanced Challenge) now and I think it's only slighty worse than last two seasons of Johto.

It's much better than Johto. Johto was the lowest point until Sinnoh.

How old is this gif? I mean, this thing could easily be a high quality webm. Or hell, I bet it's possible to make a higher quality gif of the whole thing than this shitshow.

Thats all the decent stuff.

You can skip most of AG (only watch Capture/gym/contest episodes, the fillers in this series are endless) the Battle Frontier arc is good.
DP is good, maybe better, the league is awesome but the final was rushed and become a meme.
BW is the worst season, but the Team Rocket ark is fine.
Dont watch 700 episodes, its a bad idea.
