Other random question: also, why does he have an entourage of stereotypically slutty-looking cheerleaders? He's ten. Most boys I know believed in cooties until they were fourteen.

Final random question: why aren't these kids in school??

My friends and I were feeding our nostalgia with videos of the first season of Pokemon, taped back when it was on SMTV Live every morning XD
1) Because he is the grandson of SuperPopular Prof.Oak.
2) Idem.
3) I always wandered why we can't see dogs,cats or any other domestical pets xD If I recall correctly, there were Pokemon schools.
Match class: Buy 3 Burn Heals, sell 10 Harbor Mails and 3 Super Potion, how much do we got left?
1) So basically, he's just badass XDXD
2) Idem.
3) There are, but you only really see very little kids in them, at least in the games. "Schoolboy" trainers always look like they're about seven.

And yeah, I suppose the thing was meant to be that in Planet Pokemon they have Pokemon instead of ordinary animals; like, people have Growlithe and Poochyena instead of pet dogs, and Giovanni has Persian for his Blofeld thing.

Then again, Lt Surge claimed to have lived in the USA, and I think Fantina was meant to be French. So are they implying that Kanto, Johto etc are somewhere on this planet, just have entirely seperate wildlife?
I'm going to give you a hint.

Due to that, everyone wants Dragonite. But he comes down with an Ice Beam.

Epically. I still get a warm, fuzzy feeling inside when I do it to Lance.

It's the same thing with Tyranitar. But it's harder to find a strong Fighting attack ;D, although Brick Break has become very popular.

Play recent games.  It's necessary so you don't say things like that, when Close Combat is so widely available.

I guess Diamond and Pearl made a big progress which I obviously am not aware of.

close combat is okay, but if you can't win with it in 2 turns, you're pretty much screwed

If you can't win in 2 hits, and the opponent isn't a defensive Pokemon like Blissey or Bronzong... you really shouldn't be staying in long enough to get that second hit in.
