Next Pokemon Anime Features "All Regions" - Page 2

The beginning of SM was rough but it improved a lot in its second and third year. As long as you don't care much about battles the show went the slice of life route this gen and the eps for the companions tend to be good. A lot of people really like the new style online, but it's probably going to change again next gen anyway

It's official, Ash has won

About damn time

*MikeandRaph87* · 09-15-2019, 04:20 PM

21 seasons to win at least one league? He did win Orange Islands all those years ago.

Aloha is what, the sixth official league and eighth league overall?

Do any of the other three of the Gang of Four get to participate?

*LeotheLateBloomer* · 09-15-2019, 07:14 PM

Well I know Ash won the Battle Frontier.

Orange Islands too, but they were minor or filler leagues.

I can't believe it, there is actually going to be closure to Ash's journey now.

I would be sad to see him leave though, since Ash has become such an iconic posterchild for Pokemon as a whole.

*ZariusTwo* · 09-16-2019, 04:29 AM

They could just use the Ash from the reboot movies going forward, and just close out the story of the original.

CNN even covered the story

*ZariusTwo* · 09-27-2019, 06:43 AM

Ash is staying on, and will be paired with a new male protagonist (or a tomboyish female, it's hard to tell). The current animation style will be retained

*Allio* · 09-27-2019, 12:27 PM

Oh well, wasn't planning on watching.

The Hell is CNN doing covering Pokemon for? That's just weird.

I knew Ash wasn't leaving. Wish they'd confirm it right from the start to let these stupid Ash is leaving theories stop once and for all dang it, its annoying hearing all those anti Ash folks come out.

I have to say I like this new design way more than the Sun and Moon one.

Nobody cares about that, Allio.

I'm really happy that Ash is still with us, even if this now taking place in an alternate universe.

I guess we should've seen this coming, seeing as how in the recent movies, the idea of an Alternate universe Ash has pretty much become mainstream.

*ZariusTwo* · 09-29-2019, 07:35 AM

The new character is confirmed as male, and is named 'Go'

It's not an alternate universe. People thought the same of SM when it first started too due to the animation changes.

It's the same Ash/continuity.

Correct, this is just Pokemon's "red sky" phase, only several years longer.

*sdp* · 09-29-2019, 07:10 PM

He'll also have a female companion that will be revealed eventually and they already confirmed Ash is 10 years old again. I'm excited to see what they do, it seems it won't be like a normal league but also not like SunMoon. I also wonder what direction they'll take the movies after the CG one, personally I hope they continue the nu-Ash continuity.

Scaled back timeline strikes again, they're gonna have to start retconning Ash as having begun his journey at maybe eight, otherwise darn that's a long year.

*ZariusTwo* · 10-11-2019, 04:49 AM

New information:

Ash and Gou will be based in Kanto, in a Vermillion laboratory run by Professor Sakuragi, an original character, who has a daughter called Koharu.

*Voltron* · 10-11-2019, 05:37 AM

I wonder if Gou is a reference to Poke'mon Go.
