Didn't he die like a week or two ago?

Fuck, I never watched the English dub but that sounds rough.

For fucks sake. Can this board do anything right?

>>58038405
failed first lawl!!!

Who?

Why is this a sticky? He died July 8.
Also, it took Pokemon's official channel (the English one) almost 2.5 weeks before commenting, to shit out some generic message and a 1 minute video.

>>58038397 (OP)
In other news: Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne also died this month.

>>58038440
On july 8 he died in our hearts
On july 24 he died again in our minds
please 'member

>>58038405
This should've had the [USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST] instead of being deleted.

>>58038397 (OP)
RIP.
Also when did most people here stop giving a fuck about Pokémon.

F.

>>58038397 (OP)
he died a few weeks ago, holy late

>>58038397 (OP)

>>58038406
it was 2 minutes

He died weeks ago?

>>58038440
Small indie obituary writer, please understand

ANON WAS HERE
JANNY IS A LOSER

>>58038397 (OP)
Vaxx status?

>>58038397 (OP)
RIP

So he wasn't the original. Just the voices when the dub voices after it switched over. Still RIP though.

>>58038574
He was the og gary

>>58038397 (OP)
That was weeks ago you dumbass mods.

Remove the goddamn sticky, this is old news.

>>58038450
Who the fuck gives a shit about Hulk Hogan more than pedo lovers.
Feel bad about Ozzy though.

>>58038397 (OP)
>sticky on old news
These dumbass jannies can't do anything right.

he does it for free

>>58038397 (OP)

>>58038397 (OP)
Why is the mod so slow? I bet he was too busy defending Unova's honor to look at the dates.

>>58038617
Hulk's a wrestling legend, wtf have you done?

>>58038397 (OP)
there's a lot of misinformation surrounding this, he only started voicing oak, james and meowth after TPC took over the dubbing from 4kids. The only character he voiced from the original cast was gary.

>>58038440
>tfw rachael lillis got a mention pretty much asap
>took pokemon 2 weeks to mention JCC

>>58038719
WAIT so the voice of professor oak in pokemon snap for n64 is still alive! YES!

We were on point the day James died but the janitors not only refused to sticky the news on the day, but decided it was more important to prune a Bonnie thread that wasn't remotely close to getting out of hand. At this point the only logical explanation is that 4chan (or at least /vp/) is under tranny control, because how else is it possible to be this functionally retarded?

>>58038397 (OP)
So he wrote the dub scripts for the anime since 4kids lost the rights all the way to the end of Journeys.
Does anyone know if Horizon dub has been an improvement writing wise?

I thought this already happened

>>58038806
it did, for some reason it took them 2 weeks to make this thread which is the slowest sticky i've ever seen

>>58038803
Oh, and they refused to sticky the Pokémon Presents on top of that. Yes it was shit, but they had plenty of time to prepare in advance. We had to put up with 100+ gay dragon threads as a result because of the ineptitude, and this sticky is the icing on the cake.

The amount of people online who are sad because they think he was the OG Meowth, James and Oak is pretty bleak honestly.

>>58038804
Yeah, it improved. Team Rocket's dialogue was nowhere near as dogshit and they were allowed to talk like normal humans which is a decent eniugh barometer.

>>58038803
>4chan is under tranny control
Nigga all the jannies got auditted this is no longer a theory.

>>58038817
The moral of the story is that all news that isn't posted by corpos is fake news. TPC decides when their voice actor dies, not archaic laws of nature.

This is now a slowpoke thread. Post slowpokes.

Good call. Also this is interesting art. It is kind of strange that Shellder only interacts with Slowpoke isn't it?

>>58038898

>>58038873
Thoughts on the poison variant? I personally thought it was endearing and interesting but I never once saw this board talk about it.

>>58038911
I like it. I don't know why it's yellow though.

>>58038911
I find it funny that someone at Gamefreak decided to just give Slowbro a handgun.

>>58038928
It's due to its diet of Galarica seeds. These seeds contain particles that become embedded in Slowpoke's body over time, causing this unique coloration and also altering its physiology. When a Shellder bites a Galarian Slowpoke, the interaction between the Galarica particles and the Shellder's venom results in the Poison-typing for evolved forms like Galarian Slowbro and Galarian Slowking.

ash is dead

>>58038865
It's bleak that evidently whoever has dominion over /vp/ is too busy sucking off Elon on a daily basis to do what they're not paid to do.

>>58038865
It's sad because you're obviously being sarcastic, but it's unironically been like this for normies for ages.

This thread is about Slowpoke and mental illness discussion. Please stay on topic anon.

>they heard about James Carter Cathcart dying then waited 2 weeks to make the sticky on purpose to make an epic slowpoke meme

>>58039087
I think you're overestimating the mods' competence a bit.

Slowchads just can't stop winning.

So why don't you care about his death?

he died way before those two did the jannies are just extremely fucking late

>Already unpinned
HAHAHA holy fuck

>Unstickied
lmao

Postin in le epic sticky

kek it's autosaging too
how embarrassing

this is why "they do it for free" is actual moderation employment policy

>>58038865
This is so sad because it's true, Jesus Christ.

>>58038397 (OP)
He wasn't the one people liked. He was the rat bastard scab that ditched 4kids to the god awful TPCi dub so he could voice half the main male cast he didn't original voice and became head writer to insert shitty phrases like primo Pokémon, dig it and oy vey and gave Ash strange catchphrases like I'm getting psyched and stoked. Literally the only voice people liked from this guy was Gary who he did actually voice in the only dub people fondly remember.

>unstickied

>>58038405
I just lost the game.

bumpan jannoid incompetence

>>58040840
Nope, the mod that unstickied this (and presumably made and stickied it in the first place) autosaged it after unstickying it.
