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)
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.

I know all these things and now i got it. I was suggesting you guys because i watched this episode many times and i always detected same thing when ash commanded snorlax to use protect then it has a light flash across his body just like HARDEN (It may be an animation error). That's all. So nothing to anything else and GOOD BYE. --♫♪Adyniz♪♫ 10:52, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
- Just know Sol, that Ash did catch his Snorlax during Generation I so it couldn't be that unbelievable. There have been other Pokémon in the anime that have known moves that they would only be able to learn in the early generations. Snorlax's Protect looked like a classic Harden. And when it used it, it strongly defended it against Hariyama's attack but did not repel it. The writers probably made a mistake. --ケンジのガール 08:32, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
Yup. I think you are right. --♫♪Adyniz♪♫ 10:51, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
I think, we should add Harden in the "Moves Used" section. Sorry for starting all these things again but i still feel that Harden was the actual move and protect was a mistake in the script. Can't we add Harden in the moves used section? --♫♪Adyniz♪♫ 05:39, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
Snorlax's gender
In Playing with Fire, Professor Oak referred to Snorlax as a "him." Is this enough to confirm its gender? Or is it simply another anime mistake or a dub edit? Bulbajer 18:25, 23 April 2010 (UTC)
Snorlax
Shouldn't recently used moves be changed to just Body Slam, at least that was the only attack it used in the last episode it was featured Luord 18:20, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
