Idleberry, I think the cartoon you are thinking of is "Battle of the Planets". It was Japanese, hence the similarities to Pokemon. The little robot (7 Zark 7) was not on the spaceship, though, it was in an undersea base called Center Neptune. The voice was provided by Alan Young and every so often a message came through from a robot called Susan (who lived on Pluto) with a voice even sexier than the Cadbury's Caramel bunny and 7 Zark 7's antennae would respond in a priapic fashion. 7 Zark 7 didn't do very much apart from pace up and down and every so often he was able to fly by means of a cape on his back which assumed a sort of concertina shape, as the fancy took him. The commader of the group on the spaceship (who were called G-Force) was actually a Dr. (or possibly Professor) Anderson, who wore a white labcoat and had glasses which didn't have the bits that go on your ears (sorry, don't know the technical term for these), maybe they were pince-nez, who knows? There were five people in G-force, called Mark, Jason, Princess, keop and Tiny (who, ironically, wasn't). They all piloted different vehicles, these being, respectively, a plane (which started off with a propeller but then changed into a jet when Mark waved his watch in front of his face in a dramatic fashion and said "Transmute!"), a sportscar, a motorbike, a weird stilted vehicle and the spaceship itself (which the other vehicles all slotted into...there were lots of similarities with Thunderbirds and Gerry Anderson should sue). The spaceship was called the Phoenix. Every episode was sent fighting against a caped, masked character called Zoltar who came from the planet Specter. Somehow or other, Zoltar or one of his cromies had managed to secrete a large robotic machine of mass destruction inside the Taj Mahal/Great pyramid/Mount Rushmore (delete as appropriate) which would emerge and wreak havoc of Godzillaesque proportions. Oh and Mark was voiced by Keye Luke, who was also Number One son in the Charlie Chan movies. I'll stop being sad now, Mark. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
