Why do you hate this thread?

I don't hate it (hating an internet thread is pretty ridiculous) but it IS pretty dumb.

Toho's sound effects library (the monster roars) have always been used by other companies going all the way back to the Ultra series where - for hardcore Godzilla fans - the roars sound alien coming from different monsters. That Pokemon does this too is nothing new and it's not a matter of Toho doing anything "wrong". Toho doesn't MAKE Pokemon anyway, so the point is moot.

Can I ask your age?

I guess we should banish all Heisei Gamera threads, because those were only distributed by Toho, not made by Toho themselves. See what I mean, it can get tricky.

That's not tricky at all. We should banish all Heisei Gamera threads...to the Media Center forum.

A 25 foot satanic dragon shouldn't use Mothra's chirp. Look up Giratinas movie chirp on youtube and then come talk to me.

If it bothers you so badly then don't watch the damn movies. Simple as that.

Thanks for ruining the entire thread.

How does one post stating the most simplest answer ruin the entire thread? And it's not like the thread is anything special.
I actually think the roars were a good thing with the movies, it's almost everything else that isn't. Namely changing way too many character designs and silly story lines.

It's kinda pointless. Besides, Giritina having Mothra's chirp is awesome, wouldn't you say so?

And didn't the Science Patrol's telephone sounded suspiciously similar to a certain three-headed space-dragon...

Shhh, we were supposed to keep that a secret until we REALLY wanted to freak the OP out!

Damn, another operation botched by my big yap!

But the problem Im having is figuring out why certain things were done the way they were. Toho had full control on what was used and how it was used. Certain cries don't fit the concept of the monster that it's being used for. Get what I'm saying?

[PopInPicsPresents]

Am I the only one who finds Mothra's chirp fitting to Giratina?

[Gyaos]

Who gives a squirt of piss if they used Toho roars in a Pokemon movie? Is it THAT much of a crime that an entire thread has to be dedicated towards it?

No, you're not. At first I was quite surprised to hear Giratina use the chirp, but I do think that it fits.

Thread Title Pokemon WTF= What it should really mean is how awful the generation pokemons are getting each generation

[Sydney Aradi]

I did like hearing Pokemon utter Toho monster cries and I thought it was pretty interesting. Toho using stock sounds is nothing new for em. They've been doing that for decades. BTW can we have this thread locked?

[Legion1979]

Toho had full control on what was used and how it was used.

Apparently they didn't if other companies were using Toho's stock sound effects for their own monsters/Pokemon.

Certain cries don't fit the concept of the monster that it's being used for.

That's not really Toho's problem.

And Toto/Gamera now has the 70's Kong's roar...

It didn't really bug me when I saw it. I was like, wait, that's Mothra. But, then I was like, that's a bit cool.

To me, Desghidorah's roar is more fitting. But yes, this thread is kind of pointless.
