The grand total of 30 seconds of screentime Misty/Brock get in Charizard's flashback sequence is really pointless to say they "have a role" in an episode. Brock already got two flashbacks when Dawn mentioned him anyway, so its not a big deal.

I wonder if any kids will even recognize Misty, she's been gone for over a decade and hasn't even appeared in an episode since 2005. One brief, "blink and you'll miss it" scene in a flashback sequence from, "Charmander, the Stray Pokemon," isn't a big deal.

So you've seen the episode and measured the flashbacks, then? ._.

Considering how much is happening in the episode there's no reason to think the flashbacks would be more than a minute. This isn't a Kanto flashback episode, the flashbacks are only centering around Charizard's episodes in Kanto.

Is this likely to be a big appearance by either character? Almost certainly not, and the article makes that clear. Right now, we just know that both actors are credited for the episode, and that's what we've reported. It would be presumptuous of us to state that we knew precisely what was going to happen.

So perhaps you should refrain from the same declarations. You want to make predictions? Knock yourself out. But the tone you've adopted here, posting as if you've already seen the episode, is extremely trollish and patronizing, and if I see you or anyone else carrying this on, there'll be trouble.

Sorry but I have to agree with The Fighting Misty. The VA list showcases many voice actors from years passed, many of whom haven't been in the show for years; one even retired from voice acting a decade ago. They are clearly just appearing in reanimated flashbacks with old audio and that doesn't really warrant the big "OH MY GOD" attention that it is being given

Hilarious that this is considered "OH MY GOD" attention when the article frankly couldn't be any more low-key if it tried.

Who broke the news on bulbagarden's twitter? The guy who announced it was making it seem like they were actually appearing.

Re: Credits information reveals Misty and Brock in March 7 anime episode: Sableye to

Ladies, ladies, considering the article outright says this:

Due to the lack of promotion of their appearance and the reappearance of Ash's Charizard in BW116, it is currently expected that Misty and Brock will only appear in flashbacks.

What's the problem?

Also, @The Fighting Misty; when you say "Bulbagarden's Twitter", looking through the feeds I assume you're referring to BulbaNewsNow? Iirc (and I could be wrong on this, so if any of the news team want to correct me on this, go ahead) - BNN is mainly there to get things out there as soon as they break, whereas the main Bulbapedia and BulbaNews Twitter accounts (and the BulbaNews site) are there for more accurate information which has been confirmed, reviewed and edited, hence this tweet from the Bulbagarden Twitter:

@wilsongavin107 All that can be confirmed at this stage is that they appear.

And this one:

@PokeZoomDotCom @heyitsmaritza At this stage, all that's known is that the VA's are credited. We'd like to hope it's more though.

Nowhere has it been said that they will have any kind of substantial appearance at all. So I really don't see what @Serebii; is getting at when he suggests that it's getting a lot of "OMG" attention because really...it isn't.

Anyways, I'm more interested about that Sableye. I would like Cilan to catch it; it has been quite a while since he's caught a Pokémon.

Re: Credits information reveals Misty and Brock in March 7 anime episode: Sableye to

And yet the news editor tweet says, "We'd like to hope there's more though." which tricks people who don't follow the anime that closely into thinking there's a possibility of them showing up.

If the title was merely "Charizard gets flashbacks of Kanto" it would be less of a big deal. You can see one of the people who responded to that twitter article thought they were appearing. It just seems like non-news to me, Brock appeared in flashbacks when Dawn mentioned him already and nobody announced it back then.

Saying they'd like there to be more isn't the same as saying that there might be more though. I don't see how it tricks people because it's blatantly an opinion as opposed to fact.

Mostly because over the past few days I've been seeing a lot of people excitedly saying "Brock & Misty are coming back" because of the hasty BulbaNewsNow tweet and I've unfortunately had to disappoint them. We have known for weeks that there would be flashbacks in this episode, and the VA list which showed Brock & Misty's VAs had the list of the VAs I mentioned above, meaning the information was there from the get-go.

Isn't a news article supposed to be neutral to favoritism? The editor saying he hopes its more doesn't represent the entire fandom. And I know it's his opinion, but he said, "We hope" instead of "I hope."

"We" clearly refers to BNN, the group behind the tweets.

The article is neutral. You suddenly went from talking about a Twitter post to an article.

Nowhere has it been said that they will have any kind of substantial appearance at all. So I really don't see what @Serebii; is getting at when he suggests that it's getting a lot of "OMG" attention because really...it isn't.

Let's be honest, what doesn't the fandom get hopelessly hyped up about? For example, take a look at the current debate about Sylveon's type. Might it have been something noticed and posted in haste by someone on the BulbaNews team? Possibly. However, they've since reiterated via Twitter and this article that the appearance is most likely to merely be in flashbacks.

To phrase it differently, if you see a problem, what would you guys suggest BulbaNews do about it?

 

[Cybersai]

Re: Credits information reveals Misty and Brock in March 7 anime episode: Sableye to

I think an article without the title, "Brock and Misty appear in the next episode" would suffice. Given its showing Charizard's major eps in Kanto we're likely to see Koga, Blaine and the Orange Island matches and maybe stuff from Johto or AG.

If that's the case Gary, May and Max might be in the flashbacks too, given the battles of Charizard vs. Blastoise and Vs. Articuno from AG. The wording makes it sound like the flashbacks are about Ash's travel companions when it's really just showing the major Charizard eps from past series.

Re: Credits information reveals Misty and Brock in March 7 anime episode: Sableye to

Pokémon Smash just confirmed it's in a flashback with a clip of Brock speaking from a flashback to the ep Ash caught Charmander.

So, yeah.

They reiterated it on a different account in a response to somebody else thus limiting the scope of it. People are still believing it.
The article doesn't help as the title is very misleading by not stating it's a flashback until the second paragraph, though that's more journalistic choice so I can't really go on about that

Re: Credits information reveals Misty and Brock in March 7 anime episode: Sableye to

People seem to be unhappy that we provided only the information that was there, and the fandom went on to use it to speculate different things due to us not providing the entire context in a tweet. Short of actually putting the speculation in the tweet, we can't possibly provide the entire context in there (which was one of the reasons I wanted a Bulbanews article written - to clarify the whole context).

Also, people going off and speculating is good thing, even if they're most likely wrong. It's not like you don't see people speculating about all kinds of other unlikely things, and this should not be an exception.

Nowhere has it been said that they will have any kind of substantial appearance at all. So I really don't see what @Serebii; is getting at when he suggests that it's getting a lot of "OMG" attention because really...it isn't.

It just seems like non-news to me, Brock appeared in flashbacks when Dawn mentioned him already and nobody announced it back then.

Even Misty appearing in a flashback is news; this hasn't happened since the Advanced Generation anime. And Brock didn't get a speaking role in those flashbacks anyway. "Charizard gets flashbacks of Kanto" is not news, not the point of the article or even in the source (and we don't even know it is Charizard having the flashbacks - it could very well be Ash).

Any supposed "OMG" attention given was not by Bulbagarden, but by the fandom.

And yet the news editor tweet says, "We'd like to hope there's more though." which tricks people who don't follow the anime that closely into thinking there's a possibility of them showing up.

Because that wasn't in the news article, or sent from any news account related to Bulbagarden. That was the Bulbagarden account, which is not a news service so there's nothing wrong with it giving out speculation or opinions.

They reiterated it on a different account in a response to somebody else thus limiting the scope of it. People are still believing it.

It's in the second paragraph because that's not part of the news. The news is that we know they will appear; the additional context is that it is probably a flashback. It would be highly irresponsible journalism to put that it is only a flashback in the title as we don't know that to be the case (even now that we do know that there is a flashback featuring Brock). The title that was ultimately used stated exactly what we knew so bluntly that it would be very difficult to misinterpret: all we knew was that their VAs were credited in the upcoming episode.

I don't think the title could be any less misleading, as what I'm assuming you want is to put that it is nothing but a flashback there, which is misleading people into thinking we know it will only be a flashback, which we don't.
