Situation
A few months ago, details came to light about 4Kids losing the merchandising rights to the Pokémon series to Pokémon USA. Speculation went wild on what this would mean for the anime itself, but nothing could be confirmed.
However, there's a catch to this: There is already a high possibility that we will lose the voice actors which we have known and loved for so many years. Instead, cheaper replacements casted to sound like the old voice actors are being brought in. They have already dubbed The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon, a special which will air on April 29th. Presumably, if the new voice actors are received well, they will replace our favorite voice actors.
If they are received well.
The Mastermind of Mirage Pokemon, a Pokemon special aired on Kid's WB was the beginning of the new voice actors, trying to "imitate" the old ones. If nothing is done, then you will never hear the old voice actors, instead hearing a 40 year-old sounding May, a dumb-sounding Ash, and many others. So, send letters to PUSA to tell them how you feel about the new voice actors!
