Pokemon Anime: 25th Anniversary Special

[ZariusTwo]

Pokemon Journeys will be celebrating the anime's 25th Anniversary with a new one-hour special! The newest iteration of the anime has been a huge celebration of the franchise's past as Ash Ketchum and new hero Goh have adventured through every region of the franchise introduced thus far, and this has put them up against some of their toughest challenges so far. At the same time, there has been a ton of room for all kinds of fun as this anime has brought back a ton of familiar fan favorite friends and foes from the past for a big return.

The special event will feature Ash heading to Lumiose City as he ends up needing to face off against a member of Kalos' Elite Four for his next battle in the World Coronation Series, and thus has to do some training before he takes on his next tough challenge. Given that Ash is closer to the Master Class' Top 8 than ever before, it only makes sense that his battle will be tougher than ever.

Didn't know they're now setting Ash on the path to being a full fledged Pokemon Master. I know they gave him a new sidekick that could potentially take over the franchise if he completes his story, but will they go through with that?
