What is even a Monarch besides the PWC Champion

So if Ash becomes a dad is Serena the mom?

 

[Pokegirl Fan~]

So if Ash becomes a dad is Serena the mom?

And Lillie becomes the monarch

 

[Morax]

What if Ash becomes Serena’s dad?

 

[masdog]

What if Ash becomes Serena’s dad?

And Grace...and Serena...and Delia

And Pokemon is just an even screwier adaptation of Heinlein's "--All You Zombies--"

tbh I don't think it's really necessary for Ash to battle Lance, since he's basically overshot him anyway (in the lamest way possible). Also, him catching Mewtwo is hardly necessary, and I really don't think Mewtwo wants to be captured either.

Still, I agree with you on there being a lot of unfinished business left over for Pokémon, and no ending will truly feel 'complete' unless Ash ties up a few loose ends.

Glad to see you agree with me, even partially.

About Mewtwo, I guess to be a "Pokemon Master", catching the strongest Pokemon ever would be a big step to that goal. And sure, Mewtwo is not a Pokemon that wish to be captured, but Ash is essentially the best human he has ever bonded to in his life. If Ash captures Mewtwo, I believe their relationship would be like Goh and Suicune. I mean, Mewtwo would accept Ash as his trainer and would help him when he needs him the most, but instead of waiting at Oak's Lab with nothing to do, he would continue his "mission" to go helping Pokemon wherever they suffer.

Besides, considering the messes Ash gets trapped into, it wouldn't be hard for Mewtwo to face some Pokemon who might actually challenge his power. For example, Guzzlord might be a good challengoe for Mewtwo.

I hope that Ash decides to stay as a Research Fellow for Cerise Labs and with Goh going to be a full time member of Project Mew, Chloe asks to take Goh's place and act as Ash's partner after realizing she never really tried to really get to know him.

All three kids are grateful on how each of them have developed thanks to their Pokémon and decide on future endeavors.

TR goes back to HQ and gets a mission to get Terastelizing Pokémon from Paldea.

 

[santiagus]

I hope this is not the end only the end of Journeys,Goh,Chloe and the lab crew.

Ash can continue cause if he continues TR continues.

But to be fair of all the gen 9 Pokemon I don't see any that fits Team Rocket.

 

[masdog]

I get that everyone wants JN to be over for various reasons...

But this still feels like a bait title to me.

 

[Gingertail24]

Well it's the fact that is is right after everyone arcs have concluded. Chloe, Ash and now gohs. There is genuinely nothing left to do

This. Unless there are boring johto/DA fillers for some reason.

 

[Sarefan]

So, Ash finally wakes up after his coma?

 

[Xuxuba]

So, Ash finally wakes up after his coma?

He already did in the 'I Choose You' movie but he went right back into it because reality was too harsh.

He just couldn't deal having to do homework once a week.

I don't blame him

Do you know for sure that Goh's arc concludes before this episode? because it could also be the concluding episode of Project Mew. We don't know for sure how many episodes that arc will be yet.

Oh no.

I'm no fan of Heinlein but I know what that would mean.

 

[Akashin]

Anything is possible, based on what we know so far. But it would be… odd, to say the least, to have an episode with a title with such obvious ties to the start of Ash’s journey, be about Goh.

Not that odd, if you think about it.

Goh and Ash are dual protagonists, and if the first episode title of OS was about Ash, maybe the final episode title of JN could be about Goh.

 

[Pokegirl Fan~]

I think it may be Goh's final episode and maybe we'll have 1 or 2 transitional episodes, maybe one of them being a Pallet Town episode like back in the OS and AG.

 

[Bortgreen]

It's actually rare to have "transitions" from even>odd numbered series, as the latter usually work like soft reboots
Hoenn transitioned to Sinnoh, the latter didn't transition to Unova
Unova transitioned to Kalos, the latter didn't transition to Alola
Alola transitioned to Journeys(sort of)

The only exception was Johto transitioning to Hoenn
That said, if Ash does continue I can see a new exception happening, no way they can do something without building up from Journeys
