Yesterday I wild thought apeared in my head. I used thinking, it was very effective. Jokes aside, what if Ash and Serena keep in touch with their Video Communication devices in the Pokemon Centers (dont know the exact name, let us call it skype) and have a conversation now and then about their whereabouts and their adventures, kinda like a long distant relationship. This could help develop their relationship/amorushipping and she wouldnt be forced out of hoenn.
What do you think about this ?
I think the Japanese Amourshipping community pretty much figured this was how it would be (off-screen, and this was also before the kiss IIRC). I'm pretty onboard with the idea. And if she cameos in SM, she could tell him ahead of time over the phone that she's planning to visit for a bit. Or Ash invites her if she says she has free time? Something like this:
Ash: So the Hoenn Contest season is over now, huh? What are you planning to do now?
Serena: Hm... Well, I hadn't really thought about it, but now that you mention it...
Ash: Why don't you come to Alola?
Serena: Alola?
Ash: Yeah! There's a lot of cool pokemon here that you could add to your team! And... *smiles nervously and scratches cheek* Uh... it'd be really nice to see you again.
Yeah, I pretty much ripped off Ash's initial invitation to her. I liked that invitation, sue me! XD
And a role reversal would be kind of nice between them, but I think something I'd really like is for Serena to have a playful streak when it comes to Ash. Like, if she meets him again in Alola, something along these lines:
Ash: Serena! It's good to see you again!
Serena: *tilts head to the side* Hm? Do I know you?
Ash: *blink* Huh? Uh... Serena, it's me! Ash! ...from Pallet Town?
Serena: *thoughtful* Pallet Town...? Mm... I did go there once when I was younger...
Ash: *sweatdrop* We... traveled together? Through Kalos?
Serena: Mm... I do remember traveling through Kalos...
Ash: Yeah! With Bonnie and Clemont, remember?!
Serena: *brightens up* Oh, I remember Bonnie and Clemont!
Ash: *brightens up too* Right?! Weren't those great times?!
Serena: *thoughtful* Mmm... But I don't remember you, though...
Ash: *falls over* S-Serena!
Serena: Oh! Now I remember you! You're the boy with the Pikachu!
Ash: *sweatdrop* ...Serena, were you just messing with me?
Serena: *wink* Maybe?
Pikachu: *laughing at Ash's expense*
I had entirely too much fun with that. Probably a bit OOC, though. To be honest, it strikes me as more of a joke she would pull when they're a couple (and Pikachu would probably make exasperated Pika-comments about how shamelessly they flirt).
