Uhm. Is there an actual SOURCE for "Jimmy" and "Vincent" being from the games? I mean, the game characters are completely random NPCs. The animne characters are fairly important. I need an actual document stating this claim as a fact from Nintendo or 4Kids or whatever before I can begin to believe it. :/--[[User:Biccy|Biccy]] 20:05, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | Uhm.

:Good luck trying to get that. The fact that GSC features a "Kenta" that was localised as "Jimmy" and a "Junichi" that was localised as "Vincent" is noticeable enough to get a mention on this page. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] <sup>|[[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|Talk Page]]|</sup> 20:11, 28 May 2008 (UTC) | :Good luck trying to get that.

Where do we get a presumption that he's in Kanto? I have a different theory on his current whereabouts... TTEchidna

- Given how long ago the original Japanese airing of The Legend of Thunder was, it's kind of hard to keep track of anyone in that special outside Marina. For all we know:
- Jimmy could be in Kanto, but he could also be in Hoenn, the Sevii Islands, the Orange Islands (keep in mind that Jimmy is an anime character), Sinnoh, Orre, Fiore, Arumia, back in Johto, or went somewhere far away.
- Same with Vincent.
- Eugene's probably off chasing Raikou. I wonder if he's familiar with Suicune-fanatic Eusine or a similar Entei fanatic (who may or may not be Nelson) (to make a perfect chaser trio similar to the chased trio)...
- Attila and/or Hun may or may not still be with Team Rocket. Things could change quickly even between Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea to the present...
- Besides, there's no guarantee we'll even see any of the characters from the special again. Even the Marina merchandise from DP062 could have been her final appearance...--Shiningpikablu252 22:37, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
- Well, we know one thing for sure: Jimmy wasn't in Hoenn when Ash was, and was in Johto when Ash was in Kanto. Marina has to be in Sinnoh at the current time, to pose for the Pokétch thing. Vincent is a year behind Jimmy and Marina, the question is why?. Did he go to Kanto first? Couldn't have; he'd have seen Ash then. Hoenn? Maybe. Sinnoh? Also maybe. Paul went to Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn while Ash was there, but never contemporaneously, so he could go in order Hoenn, Kanto, Johto, or Johto, Hoenn, Kanto.
- I think it would be interesting to have Ash meet up with another character based off of a game character who's going on the badge quest. Gary served that purpose in Kanto and sorta in Johto, but he really sucked at it. Hoenn had NO ONE. Sinnoh's got Paul, but why not throw Jimmy in just because. After all, he might be there, we never see the audience in Marina's contest, so...
- Plus, Jimmy's the only main protagonist from LOT that hasn't been in the main anime yet. Even Eusine got in before him. TTEchidna

- I don't recall Eusine being in The Legend of Thunder. As far as we know, For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll is Eusine's only anime appearance. --Shiningpikablu252 01:12, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
