I think the over the top statement people keep saying might just be because they aren't use to seeing passionate acting in anime or cartoons.
Like Frank Welker isn't overacting when he plays Fred Jones or Scooby Doo he's just really into his characters and in animation you really have to act like that.
Now then, to get back to the topic at hand, yes, I am used to hearing passionate acting in cartoons (animated feature films from any of the big studios making them). It's just that I think the Japanese version of Pokemon (and actually Japanese acting in general, I'm finding, even in their dubs of American media) can border on Brian Blessed-levels of overacting.
