Pokémon Needs MORE Voice Acting

[@JoeMeng]

This is the first game that feels like it was made with voice acting in mind, but was just never implemented.

[@merrymonkey5172]

We’ll get a fully dubbed gen one of these days. Feels like good first steps. The VAs nailed* it too, props.

[@ArceusDX]

Yeah, the lip flaps match up to the text and everything

[@zetamangads]

The problem is that gamefreak keep the main titles on it own bubble letting spin off games or mobile games do the shit that the franchise desperately needs aka voice acting. Their reason is "taking away the experience" which means we don't want to adapt like other franchise like Persona that does the silent protagonist well and let every other characters have their own voice plus it will take too much money for the actors to literally call every pokemon names correctly. Seriously this mentality it what hurts this franchise, it tries to act like 25 (now 26) franchise but it doesn't feel like one, Zelda adapted to modern game trends aka open world and giving characters voice acting while still retaining the silent protagonist aka Link, if Zelda can manage to adapt and make it better why not pokemon. I swear Gamefreak needs new leadership at the top in both management and creative directions, because the way they handle the franchise is not bad but needs someone that knows that this franchise has some issues and needs some fixing. Also give this franchise at least 5 year to develop because on how abyssal Gen 9 launched.

They still make butt load's of money on the games and 100 percent could have hired voice actors and not even like celebs either like just voice actors and it would have been awesome. But they didn't and it sucks. Honestly we should have gotten voice acting in sword and shield especially for that opening bit with Rose, but we didn't and we just kinda have to keep poking game freak and then they will cave and bring in voice actors. But until then we have to keep poking and prodding Pokemon and Gamefreak for it and hopefully one day we will hear the voice of a future character.

Even Cristina Vee does numerous voices in Pokémon Masters including Bugsy, Phoebe AND Marnie. J Michael Tatum has been credited for Journeys but no clue what he does whereas he was Emmet for Masters. I'll stop there since I think you get my point since I could definitely do more since I see the actress that voices Bea in Journeys as well Also I don't think they'd want the same actors voicing characters in Masters that they'd be voicing in video games... of course it makes sense with the likes of Jessie, James, Team Rocket's Meowth and even Ash to have their Journeys voices since those are TV characters

Arven must be damn strong to man handle you like that going 200mph

[@YataCallie4411]

Im flabbergasted by how all of the voices fit so well! like when i read the dialouge i imagined them to sound like that and the emotion in the voices are top notch oh my god! seriously amazingly talented friends you got!

[@aprilhippie8752]

Holy shit you guys nailed the voices for the characters perfectly this is exactly what I’m picture them to sound like 😮😯 I wanna hear more 😢

[@ThrustersX]

This isn't a want, this is a NEED! I need this to be a mod right now! Wish someone can integrate it into the game though

[@AnonymousAnimated]

Can we talk about how strong daddy issues guy is? Arven holds on to us(the player character,) with one arm with ease while actively plummeting off of a cliff.

[@nicolasgauthier6962]

Please add the final battle music after the last scene. Just chills

[@43dl3ntil]

This is incredible. All of the voice actors are so talented and fit their role really well. Dropped a like.

[@AceXGamer-yb7pv]

Voice acting would take an already intense set of stories and make it so much more impactful. Just the scenes with the voice actors you had was so much more

[@averagepokemonfan5510]

please do a full dub of the whole entire game. I would seriously watch all of it

[@TheRibottoStudios]

Ohhhh my GOD the way Sada's voice changed was PERFECT.

[@cardinvuong9742]

I think "flying together" would just increase the fear factor because then you're risking everybody dying if you can't fly

[@neliros]

Wow. Everyone sounded exactly as I imagined they would. Simply fantastic.

[@Rixec2]

These are all so good! All the small touches just add so much more to these wonderful characters!

[@williamhatchett1473]

If nothing else, I’d love to see a let’s play from all of the voice actors just to show what it all would look like put together. Each VA has done such an amazing job in these clips and I’d love to see more

[@jessiescholten9119]

This makes these characters so much more likable

[@wingedlightsss]

Okay Arven sounds EXACTLY how he sounded in my head

[@mariak5096]

I love this so much! All the voices are super fitting and they sound so good

[@KingNidoYT]

This is brilliant! I've watched it so many times, it is like a song that you just can't stop listening to. And that build up to the moment when Sada says, "Please. Defeat me." Chills every time!

[@greyborg3846]

It's amazing how close the voices you chose were to the voices I had assigned each character in my head.

[@jaymithani300]

Wonderful voice acting!! Kudos to you guys!!!! AWESOME!

[@Lyrakrosis]

Y'all are 1:1 with how the characters sounded in my mind. I love this so much. Gamefreak should straight hire y'all to voice pokemon games.

[@KuroJOkami]

You guys did amazing at these voice lines! Your voices with the characters are so good and believable! We don't need full blown professional VA's to do this!

[@ashe_hikari5335]

Voice makes everything so much better. Granted they did have voice acting in LA *technically* as the protagonist exclaimed gasps and sounds of pain. But yeah this is simply incredible and really takes the whole experience a long way.

[@crazykid-2017]

why isn't Pokemon already with voice acting!?!? this is so incredibly amazing!! amazing job to all the voice actors!!!

[@snowytrailz]

this makes me so happy for no reason

[@dannissen]

I had chills from watching this! Gamefreak get your shit together and make it happen! I honestly hate that they don’t do anything like this, should have been a thing since sword and shield atleast, i normally don’t have sound on playing the games, but i would enjoy so much to lean back and listen to people talk, honestly i don’t even think i read it anymore i just keep pressing to skip everything, i’m dyslexic and have some minor problems with my sight, so reading a ton gives me migrane, listening to stories dosnt!

[@mp3playerrrr]

Can I just say that the voice acting is awesome?? All of these characters sound exactly like how a pictured them to sound!! Plus at the scene where team star is meeting penny for the first time is so heart warming. I can just feel that they are friends, regardless of wether they’ve met face to face before.

[@YourdaWince]

Wow! The VA gave this so much life! I cannot believe it. I’m so excited for the anime to hit! This cast 100 deserves to have their personalities shown!

[@Dustifer]

The final scene with the professor, or the AI Sada I suppose, was already so cool in my opinion, but simply adding voices to them made it so much better!!

[@Warriorcat_Youtube]

Pairing these with the wonderful lyrical rendition of Juno Songs, this game would've been HUGE with voice acting.

[@iamlordstark]

This adds sooo much life to the game!!! I honestly really loved this story and this game (minus my hate for it at the beginning with all the crashes and quality) but the story is fantastic! If it has VA omg some of the scenes woulda made me cry 😭!
