Just found out about the Orange Islands DVD. The first user review on Amazon confirms this as well; and it sucks. I was wondering what happened when I was on Pokémon TV the other day; and now I have more incentive to hold on to my 2002 copy that I got at the flea market last year and seek out the 2008 set. Thanks for the heads-up, Dogasu; since this is probably going to rile as many people up as when Greedo shot first.
It is 100% TPCi who is telling them what to do I'd say and then Viz going and actually doing it.I don't think Viz "special editioned" the episodes. It's more likely that TPCi told Viz not to include the Jynx episodes on the DVDs due to the fact that they are nowhere to be found on the official Pokemon website either. Since Viz is merely the distributor of the DVDs, they probably don't have the power to decide which episodes to include or not.
Just remember: the kids these releases are for (along with their parents) DO. NOT. CARE. about technical stats and are unlikely unaware of the Jynx controversy to begin with. Ya'll can complain about how crappy the recent box sets all you want--I have issues with them meself--but us longtime fans aren't what they have in mind at all...
Unfortunately it is the truth, Pokemon is aimed at 7-12, right? I just made that demographic up but I'd assume that is around the age group they are catering to. Why would they care what a bunch of 18+ year old people think? We're just more money to them because TPCi knows that they can get it from us. Again, made that age group up based on my age...Just remember: the kids these releases are for (along with their parents) DO. NOT.

One would think that is the case given the severe lack of releasing the series unedited with the original audio and unedited video.
I just want to know why the heck Viz never puts Johto Journeys and Johto League Champions on DVD. They've claimed they've planned in the past, but it never happens

They did get an initial release from 2000-2004 I believe. Johto Journeys must have started 2000-2001 and Champions 2002-2004 but they are both extremely rare and expensive online. A re-release is coming later this year according to Viz.
