    I don't think it is though, it's a currently airing anime which is different than those that are already completed. They would have to rush not only the dubbers, translators etc that it takes to even get an episode across the seas, but the original team that works for them in Japan. In short, I don't think it's possible and would do more harm than good.

    Isn't the English Dub 13 episodes behind the Japanese show? That's not too far behind at all.

    Which really isn't that far behind. I mean compared to how far behind the dub was a few years ago.

    They used to be a whole year behind back then.

    It's not as bad as you think.

    It isn't THAT far behind, but we're getting the new games the same time as Japan. If they don't catch up, as I said they'll be what, 3 months into the new games when the new show JUST starts?

    so... who/what was helping Ash and co. deflect Pikachu and Axew's attacks? It looked like either Stunfisk/Emolga and Oshawott/Palpitoad with hydropump?

    No, Pikachu and Axew were attacking Team Plasma Pokemon with Thunderbolt and Dragon Rage. The Team Plasma Pokemon were Beartic and Galvantula, using Ice Beam and Electro Ball respectively.

    oh, and then after they get controlled, that's when they attack Ash and co. I can't wait for these episodes ^.^

    I kind of would like it if Ash could use Krookidile to finally beat Pikachu, since it lost all its battles against Pika. I doubt that will happen...

    but back on topic, would the voice actors of America really need to wait on the Japanese dub? They could always do the first few episodes in advanced. For all we know, they could already have like 10-20 episodes completed.

    The problem with that is, neither of us really know the process of these things. As it stands now, I'm sure the dub is doing all it can to maintain the pace set now. They dictate the pace so that they are able to keep up and take breaks when they need to. But yes the dubs do have to wait for the JP dub because the other dubs only translate the original Japanese dub, not write for it, so they wouldn't have anything to go on.

    I think they are doing this so this saga will be over much or less at the same time. Because if XY are going to be released worldwide and at the same time, I guess they want to anime to debut at the same time.

    But it's not possible for that to happen, not without complications.

    I imagine there's some way around it, similar to how voiced videogames are released simultaneously. And while not voice acted, the Pokemon games are now able to be released in several languages at once.

    The only real issue I see is they have to finish work on season 16 and start season 17 at the same time as Japan.

    Either way I would love the gap to be even smaller than it is right now.

    I remember a few years back when they had a new ep of DP every single day. Those were the good times. They need to do that to catch up

    They never did that.

    It wasn't DP, because DP was dubbed by TPCI.

    But I do think it happened with 4kids and the AG series, but only because they were a year behind and could do that.

    I think Battle Frontier also did this for the same reason (but I could be wrong).

    Also what's the point of this thread?

    Edit: However, there is the other countries that do air a lot of dubbed episodes BEFORE the US. I think that's what he meant.

    If I'm not mistaken there was like 3 or more episodes that aired day after day, I think ending with Dawn's Swinub evolving, I think in DP.

    It happened recently too, if I'm not mistaken a country aired the rest of the Rivals Destiny episodes, while the US was still airing dubbed episodes week after week, but I don't think it happened day after day, however.

    I will not say I'm the best. But by Ash's standards, I'm pretty good.

    Some of you need to look at this before you comment on what a Pokemon should learn. Some of you are okay but some of you need to look at this: http://www.serebii.net/attackdex-bw/ This is the attackdex, it is your friend.
