I really don't understand why people still care about ratings that much, especially for a series like Pokemon. I think that you can make a good argument that ratings in general don't really matter for most shows given that it's such an outdated means of gathering information about a series, but it really doesn't matter for a toyetic series like Pokemon. The anime exists to promote the games and more merchandise. Ratings really don't matter for its success and I think fans, for a lot of shows and not just Pokemon, are too obsessed with ratings data.
