So you expect Pikachu to win every match in Isshu?

Just because Pikachu is a strong, experienced fighter does NOT mean it's going to win every battle. Even the strongest superheroes sometimes lose fights to weaker opponents.

People talk about the Gym Leaders' Pokémon being more experienced than Pikachu, but so is Pikachu when compared to Pokabu and Mijumaru. So I don't see why they must have Pikachu lost its first match. I get sick of it. It gives new audience the impression that Pikachu is weak. And they make it seems like that Pokabu has more HP than Pikachu.

Watching this with subs made it SO much better. I finally found out what the "energy" Team Rocket wanted to find was. Supposedly, they're supposed to go to the sight of dreams and obtain some sort of energy that makes dreams into reality.
Do you even watch this show? That's not just you but to pretty much everybody who thinks is a crime that Pikachu lost. Thing is if you look at the episodes weekly, you realize that Pikachu isn't all that strong. Just in DP, his failures and his close matches far outweigh the matches where it just dominated an adversary. He's been shown to be stronger than the average pikachu, probably as strong as an evolved Raichu, but... that's it. Nothing more than that really. For the entire run of DP, most of the time, Pikachu was having a hard time in his battle and they took a lot out of him. He wasn't some almighty God.
There's also something that seems to be forgotten in this debate. Corn is only using Water Monkey. That's his main fighter, that's the pokémon he fights with. It's not a strech to imagine he knows that it's a pokemon that's weak against Grass and Electricity and that he divised a strategy to counter that...
Oh and... Exp, HP, PP, stats, etc. are best left in the games and not in the anime.
Is there any reason for Iris' being a stalker of Satoshi? It's Zekrom thing again?
Why are people comparing two different characters to one another?
Other than the fact that Dent is a gym leader, he is nothing like Brock. Speaking of Dent, we still don't know why he would want to suddenly quit his profession as a gym leader to follow one of his challengers around.
No, I have feeling that reason why she's stalking him is because she has a crush on him.
Iris = New Misty
Kibago = New Togepi
Dent = New Brock
Edit: Actually, I don't really believe the "crush" theory...

You don't even have to imagine it. He outright states that he's trained his Hiyapp to be able to go up against pokemon who are strong against it.
Now, now...I know you dislike Pikachu (so do I to some extent), but I'd say Pikachu is a stronger than the average Raichu. It's just plot that makes its power fluctuate widely. Tieing with Latios, and taking out Regice ( the latter being cheap but w/e) then losing to Elekid or something. Pikachu is pretty damn strong, but when the writers want it to fail it does so wonderfully...which is usually at the start of a new region.
