Talk:Ash's Snorlax

Does anybody have proof that Kevin Michael Richardson voiced Snorlax? I heard that they used previous clips for its voice, and Richardson has NEVER voiced characters on Pokémon. --PAK Man 04:11, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

-Trivia Notation- Is it worth making a Trivia point that in Wheel of Frontier, Ash's Snorlax used 6 moves, despite Pokémon only being able to use 4 in the games as well as most other anime episodes? - --Seriin 17:54, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

No. --Catu the Cat 13:20, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Protect?

Hey guys i think Ash's Snorlax can't use Protect. I saw the episode recently, it was totally a dub mistake. The real attack was Harden because. There was no any greenish thing protecting snorlax. I am 1000% sure that was Harden. You guys should watch the episode first and then confirm it. I have watched the episode thrice and noticed it all the times. "Protect" was a dub mistake. I don't no about japanese episode but that attack was Harden for sure. --♫♪Adyniz♪♫ 03:29, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

It's kinda dumb to say "dub error, that's Harden" when "Protect" is said in the episode and you have no evidence from the original version. ~ solaris 03:39, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Uh guys, read AG149's Error section. Can't say its a dub error though as I didn't see the original version. --ケンジのガール 04:07, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

I think the move is Protect, since moves' appearances can vary by Pokémon. And Snorlax doesn't even learn Harden (except in Generations I/II but this move was used in Generation III so I dunno), so although anime move errors are a possibility, I still think the move is Protect. ~ solaris 04:15, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I found out that Snorlax was commanded to use Protect in the original version as well, meaning it's not just a dub error. I still believe it's an error none the less as ALL Pokémon that used Protect had a barrier shield and ALL Pokémon that use Harden have a light flash across them. A common misconception is that the original versions are ALWAYS right. But this anime is based on a video game and perhaps the writers don't know everything about Pokémon. This might be a similar situation to Nosepass who clearly used an Electric attack yet it was called Hyper Beam in the original.

Also, Snorlax CAN learn Harden in Generation I and Generation II only --ケンジのガール 04:21, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Also, Hariyama was able to knock over Snorlax with Focus Punch. If it really used Protect, this wouldn't of happened. --ケンジのガール 04:25, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

I put that it can learn Harden.. D:

And as I've said, moves' appearances can vary by Pokémon. Ludicolo's Protect was yellow and didn't even completely surround it, and I'm positive there were other times. But meh. ~ solaris 04:30, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
