    Smoked some weed with that post???


    DP was the most action-packed series yet..... >__> Unless you mean they add people kicking Pokemon's behinds and bloodshed.

    Sinnoh has very little filler actually. Only about 25%. That's about equal with Kanto and less then Johto.

    Yet had way more episodes than Kanto, so, yeah. It's not that the series isn't action-packed or boring, you just out-grew it.

    THIS.


    Remember filler refers to an episode where absolutely nothing happens which effects the story. If a Pokemon learned a new moves, evolves, or an important character it's counted as non-filler, no matter how uneventful the episode was. And even if an episode is full of non-stop action, if no big event happens in it it's considered filler so this works the opposite way to.


    Filler means nothing that will change how the character acts/battles has happened, not that the episode wasn't exciting.

    Well, we've reached the end of Diamond and Pearl. It's sort of sad you know, saying goodbye to a big chapter of the anime. But I look forward to the surprises thatBest Wisheswill give us

    Character development as well. That's what makes numerous DP episodes non-filler.

    Hm, besides from Dawn's and Ash's depression character development really isn't that focused upon. I think as soon as it was decided Pokemon became a long runner it was also decided that character development would be very gradual with it hitting its height during the League and Grand Festival. This also sort of explains why it took Brock a long time up until the Doctor Brock episode for a major character development to happen to him, the gradual process only really worked for Ash the female companions who were competing in something.

    Next time, Ash travels to the Isshu region and we say goodbye to Dawn and Brock forever, but Ash meets a new girl named Iris, who will join him on his travels. Later, Dento, who also happens to be a Gym Leader, will join Ash as well.

    I loved Dawn's goodbye, 10 times better then May's....although that wasn't that hard....but I think I may have liked it more then Misty's (back off I have weapons).


    I'm still sad to see Dawn leave, I liked her more than May and possibly Misty.


    Anyway, this topic will remain opened until DP191 has aired stateside. Please continue to talk about episodes that haven't aired in the US here.
