Pokemon Best Wishes! Season 2 was an interesting ordeal, it focusses on the time after ash has collected 8 of the gymbadges needed to play in the Unova league. Story: Well story wise this part of the show is not much different from the indigo league, Ash participates and does not win once again, after the unova league is over the story shifts to meloetta and was not memorable enough for me to write more about it. Therefore I rate it a 6 for being ok, sticking closely to the pokemon formula but still dabble with some kind of plot arrangement. Art: The art of pokemon in black andwhite overall has been better than ever! The move animations stick closely to the game counterparts, even improving upon them! The pokemon look sharp and nicely animated as ever, Ash's design is ok, not worse than before but I feel like while he is 10, he looks a lot older in this season. Honnestly would not mind a remake of the original few seasons in this quality... Speaking of which! They show some scenes from the original show, flashbacks, or reminders, which almost seem re-mastered or just made again!
Sound:
I've got nothing special to say here, the soundtracks are great, if you have been watching pokemon like me, I usually put it on in the background while i'm doing housework or alike, the soundtrack for me has started to fade into the background in general.
Character:
Oh boy here we go...
I did not particularly like Iris and Cilan to begin with but it just gets worse with this... Yes in at this point in the series you do get to know Iris a little better, like where she's from and what her "goal" is. Cilan however is just incredibly frustrating, he replaced arguably the best character pokemon had seen, and does so in a smart ass kind of way. I think I'd like the show more if they just left him out as a main character in general, ash's main character-ness has been reduced enough already.
And have you noticed how both Iris and Cilan repeat things so many times??? Its more annoying than team rocket ever could have been, and to be honest, team rocket is actually full of character this season cause they are moving up the corporate ladder.
Enjoyment:
Even though I rated the show a 6, this is purely because of the art improvement. the lack of consistency of the main characters really took a toll on me, hopefully the new mc's in X and Y aren't as bland.
