Okay okay, I stopped watching pokemon at Best Wishes!' 1st season, and re-watched at the start of Adventures in Unova and now trying to get ahold of the already aired un-dubbed episodes or the To be aired un-dubbed episodes. so first of all.

What's up with the disscussions of Team Rocket's Leave?

2 - They're going back to kanto after N?


It sucks to be me.

Team rocket had a small hiatus off the show for I think 11 episodes. They left after failing to summon the kami trio. All of team rocket retrated to kanto. At the time there was a lot of speculation on their return but they didnt take long to return. Their return marked the return of their goal to capture pikachu, a goal that has been mainly avioded in most of the Best wishes series. They are currently playing a main part in the N series.

Is this what you wanted to know? It was a little unclear but hope I helped.

Hmm. That indeed is useful information, Thank You. :)
Although what I don't get is why people think they're leaving just because of a main role in Episode N.

They're not leaving after Episode N. We know that they're going to be around for the Dekoroa Adventure arc which follows it. Which apparently takes place within the Kanto region, so yes, to answer your second question, both Ash and Team Rocket will be returning to Kanto after the N arc concludes.
 
Decolora is not exactly Kanto. Yet, we have no hint of how/why do Team Rocket follow Ash over there.
 
We don't know whether it's Kanto. We know they're headed for Kanto, but knowing the writers, Decolora's probably a made-up location conveniently lying right in between Kanto and Isshu.

EDIT: To answer the question about how TR follows Satoshi-tachi, I think they're pulling the dress-up-as-ship's-staff strategy, or that's what it looks like from a picture on serebii.

They have always done that, and it would be no surprise if they do it again now.

Let me clear it up, Why do people think TR is taking it's leave after Decolora? (I got them mixed up)

Correct, my bad.

People have been debating about the possibility of TR leaving the anime for the entirety of BW, as you can see from this thread: http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f555/will-bw-end-team-rocket-rocket-dan-109382/

As of yet, though, we don't have anything to go on concerning what will become of the Rockets after Decolora. It's all just speculation right now.
 
Help me toooooo! :p Literally have been out of it since BW began and although I'm kinda back to speed (...well, on the TRio haha) I still have a few questions as I've only actually seen 3 episodes in this series.

1. What's Satoshi done in Isshu that makes everyone think he's achieved nothing?
2. Why is everyone saying BW is a redux of Kanto?
3. What happened to there only being gen V pokemon in Isshu?! All of a sudden it seems that all the pokemon who didn't exist there... do?
4. Are there any really good episodes in the series which I should watch? Or any in which the TRio have their personalities restored to them?!

1. Well maybe that he still gets the first 3 starters in like every generation.
2. I dont exactly know but i think it has to do with the way it is built or the pokemon.
3. That was the creator of BW that started that. I dont know why he did that, but i think its a great idea since it has all national pokemon.
4. You should watch (Best Wished #ep.16) Its very emotional and the truth behind tepig.
 
ii kanji said:

There are a few small moments here and there, but they're few and far between.

Nyasu does get four whole episodes of being in-character during the Nyagotiator arc that takes place right before Raimon City, so that's something, I guess.

1. I think the main reason people think that is because he did worse in the Unova league than in previous sagas, didn't win any of the three mini-tournaments and the way battles are written now makes him look like a worse trainer than before. "Nothing" is an exaggeration, but there isn't a big focus on personal achievements for Satoshi this saga, so it's understandable people feel that way.
2. It...really isn't. There's certainly a bigger emphasis on episodic, slapstick-y adventures than in DP, but BW is very much its own thing, for better or worse.
3. The BW2 games re-introduced older Pokemon to the region. Naturally, the anime followed suit.
4. Most of the early episodes are good, as are BW44 &45, BW57, BW69 and BW98. Episode N has been quite good for the most part, too. As for the Rocket-dan, other than the Nyagotiator arc, only the fishing competition episode comes to mind.

Whether you enjoy BW or not will probably depend on what you want out of the saga. If you liked the focus on battling, training and rival conflicts in DP and AG, BW might not be up your alley. If you enjoy lighthearted adventures driven by character interaction and humour, you'll probably like BW. Of course that's a bit of a generalisation, the best way to find out is to watch for yourself. Hope that helped.
 
On 2, it should be noted that Unova did have several things that can be comparable to Kanto: Iris and Cilan shared similar traits with Misty and Brock, respectively; Ash catching more than 6 Pokemon, etc. But as the saga went along, it really found its own voice and diverged greatly from the similarities.

Edit: And if you like the silly Rockets, watch the Litwick mansion episode.

Still, there are three mini-tournaments, 4 episodes each, which focus on rivals and battling, The battles may not be as good as DP's were, but it still has lots of rival interactions and some action.

Also, I would suggest BW086, 96, 97, 100, 101.
 
Thanks guys! Mind you, I'm not sure if it's encouraged me or just put me off even more :p (I think whatever I pretend I can't get away from my disgust at the TRio's lobotomies so even the renewed silliness of the Kanto days which I so love is hardly drawing me in...)
