Which haven't been pulled off?

Ash never got Primeape back, Ash never saw Haunter again, Ash never even USED any of the 30 Tauros he caught, the GS Ball didn't even HAVE any purpose, and, now to my biggest disappointment, Ash never saw Butterfree and its mate again... :cry:

Who agrees with me? State anything that also have just been "forgot".

He used a Tauros during the final battle of the Orange League.
He also used it in a battle against Gary during the Silver Conference.
 
Well actually Ash used one of his many Tauros when he was battling at the Indigo Plateau. It did pretty well in the battle but sadly it is still incredibly underused. And don't forget his Pidgeot; he finally got a really strong bird Pokemon that could Fly him from town to town and he released it! As much as I looooove hoofing it for miles and miles and endless miles...I'd rather have a bird Pokemon Fly me everywhere. It's just more time efficient and more fun. I hope Pidgeot comes back because Ash released it just when it was showing how freaking awesome it could be.
 
Oh yeah, I forgot about the orange leagues and Pidgeot.

And yeah, Pidgeot was one of the more awesome pokémon he had.
Also, does Brock still have Vulpix, or did it just magically vanish?
 
... And we never met Suzy again.
Sorry, I haven't watched Johto yet.
But the only ones I REALLY hate is that Butterfree is never seem again and the GS Ball having absolutely NO purpose at all.

Ash used Tauros in Indigo Plateau, Orange League and Battle Frontier.

Ash gave Haunter to Sabrina.

Primeape, he gave it away. Butterfree, he released. Only bad point is, he said he'd come back for Pidgeot, but didn't.

The GS Ball was originally going to be involved in a Celebi plot, but the writers decided to give Celebi a movie.
 
Ignore the Tauros one - I am quite absent minded sometimes.

Haunter: Yes, but they promised to "meet again" sometime, with Sabrina and her family. One plotline destroyed.
Primeape: He said that he'd let Anthony *hmmhmm*
Train it for a while.
Train it for a while
Train itFOR A WHILE
Butterfree: He released it, but promised to see it sometime in the future, as far as I recall.
Pidgeot: True.
GS Ball: I know, but at least don't let it rot up at Kurt's effing house. Let Celebi have a minor cameo, at least. Etc, Celebi appears from ball, Celebi flies up in teh air, Celebi time travels, Celebi seen again later in movie, END.
 
Ash used random Tauros, one at a time (I say random because it is unknown if he used the same Tauros over and over again) many times: (some of my spelling may be off I’m not feeling my best today)

• Against Drake during his final Orange Island battle
• In a Tauros fighting competition in Johto (it was the same episode where Jessie accidently traded Lickitung for Wobbfeut.
• Against Gary in the Silver Conference
• Against Anabel at Battle Tower in the first fight and the rematch

Here are some other things that seemed to have been forgotten in the original land of Kanto:

• His reunion with Primeape
• Returning to Viridian Forest to get Pidgeot
• The GS Ball being deciphered (since it was thrown away never to be seen again, it could hint at how Pidgeot isn’t coming back, because Ash said that after he gets the GS business settled he would come back for it)
• Ash and Haunter-well it was never really his to begin with because he didn’t catch it, Haunter was in a sense “a gift” to Sabrina
• Ash and Butterfree, but really I think by Brock’s words Ash knew that they may not meet again
• We never see the new Viridian Gym leader; Giovanni quit, Agatha was filling in at the end of the AG arc and she said that there was a new one coming in eventually
• I want to see a Pokemon League with Kanto again to make up for the pitful one that we were set to watch where Ash lost against Ritchie, I want to see battles where you can substitute and a sleeping Pokemon isn’t counted as unable to battle!
• Seeing Ash earn all 8 Kanto badges fair and square by winning battles not by playing the hero or being Mr. Nice Guy
• Seeing the new Sabrina since her cold-Paul-like self was gone thanks to Haunter
• Watching Ash vs. Flint/Brock/Forrest at the Pewter Gym and watching him fight Misty at Cerulean Gym since both Gym battles were interrupted; sprinklers went off on Onix/TR stopped Pidgeotto vs. Starmie. Also the match with Erika was stopped by TR andViridian Gym was pathetic since he had to fight TR
• Ash’s rematch with Samurai, A.J., and other trainers
• Did Seymour the scientist go to outer space with the Clefairy?
• Did Bill ever see the “giant” Pokemon again?


And I could go on but I think that this is enough. Oh, and the Porygon episode and other banned episodes that we viewers never got to watch.

You should read the bottom of this. And not just you...

(Satoshi=Ash, Okorizaru=Primape, etc....)

Although I do wish we could've seen Primeape again, because of what the Japanese narrator said...
 
Yeah, Dogasu's website is awesome, truely.

But in the dub, Anthony says: "Why don't you let me train it for a while. I'll turn it into a P1 champion." I just watched the dub.
 
Same here. I'm just saying that in the Japanese version, Primeape was meant to stay with that guy. (But like I said before, the narrator said Ash'd see Primeape again sometime, so I do wish Primeape had come back- otherwise, that line was pointless. And as of this day, it was pointless...)

The dub also said that Brock's mom died, but later on she made several appearances.

That's why I'm wondering about the Pidgeot thing. In the Japanese version, did Ash really say he'd come back for it? (That's not addressed directly at you.) I'm not ruling out the idea that he did, but it's possible that he didn't...
 
I guess cuz it was the original series, so some fans will always think of it has the best. Than again, it did have some good moments here and there.
But I love each series so..
 
eh the plot lines were pretty generic/predictable nothing special.

the show had just started, i didn't truly like the show until they got to competition mode
 
They haven't been forgotten, the writers simply choose not to bring them back because they're not as important as fans wish to believe.
 
I don't think so. It served its purpose in that episode. The artist who wanted to see it didn't even capture it 'cause he got the inspiration he needed.

I mean, if it did come back someday, I'd be fine with it, but I don't see it happening nor do I feel like it needs to come back.
 
Buterfree will not come back. The original Japanese Dex says so. Read it. Then reply and post it.

The GS Ball was supposed to be a base for the Celebi Movie, but that was scratched.
