I can never understand why that show still runs and why people ever watched it, the Pokemon Anime was always terrible, period. Even as a kid (back when I was huge fan of the Pokemon games) I hated the show, everything in it took forever. The first Digimon season completely blew the Pokemon show out of the water.

The curse of following preset material. You gotta make it last till the new stuff is made. And game making is longer than a TV series. If the show didn't have to follow the games. Realistically, the entire game would be one season. Or they shorten the seasons to half. So that Gym fights are done in sections. 3 years: 3 Gyms per year. Last year is 2 gyms and Team fight. Than League episodes. So instead of having around 150 eps per gen its only 60.

Or it can be broken up with the movies. So they actually become useful. The Legendary fights and Team master fights are in the movies. While the show handles the rest. Imagine the drought/water storm Groudon and Kyogre did in Hoenn, as a movie. Along with Ash stopping both teams. The movie would allow the scoop of the destruction. Not be two parts, and have Lance show up for no reason.
