Are storylines and gags the same thing? Cause' there are some gags I dislike.
In the early seasons, they reused the storyline of Togepi getting lost or jumping out of Misty's arms a lot and them having to find it.
The writing for Togepi was so awful that the only thing they could think to do with it is reuse its Metronome gag or have it get lost with Misty trying to find it every 30 or so episodes. It was also apparently the only way they could get Misty to do something, lol.
When I was younger I always liked Togepi's antics. I remember with all my friends (who were mostly girls) favorite Pokemon being Togepi ^^; so what I'm trying to say is, maybe the target audience enjoyed it a lot more, then by say if we look back on it.
I think the original appeal of Togepi is it was the very first NEW Pokemon (other than Ho-oh) we saw, so it seemed exciting because we never thought there would be more than 151 pokemon back then.
Now that we're used to tons of new pokemon every gen, Togepi's original appeal as the infamous "152nd pokemon" is lost. Now in retrospect its just a dull baby pokemon that sat in Misty's arms doing nothing for 200 episodes.
Happiny was a much better handled baby pokemon, and was a lot funnier. I also thought Happiny's strength was overused, but slightly.
