Digimon and Pokemon: A middle of the night musing.

[GabumonFan]

Not that it's not already been said but the anime for pokemon couldn't have been more repetitive throughout the series.

Formula:

gets three new pokemon and two new sidekicks
episode on a gym
episode on friendship
episode on gym
episode on friendship
episode on gym (he loses)
episode on training
episode on gym (he wins this time)
Episode on friendship (hey look he finally catches a new pokemon)
and on and on and on.
