December 9th: PM2019 135 - Pokémon! I Am Glad I Got To Meet You!

[Kuzehiko]

I feel like this is the end of current Ash's story [OS-Journeys]. Next series will be a reboot with Ash in Paldea. Either way it's a farewell.

DECEMBER 9th AMOURSHIPPING IS BECOMING CANON AND ASH WILL BECOME A DADDY
WE IN THE ENDGAME NOW
SAY HELLO TO DADDY ASH IN SV. He ain’t leaving

That is the only way I’ll accept this happening, my favorite ship happening.

If Goh is the new lead how sad, well the anime had a good run, the idiots who think it’s a good idea if that’s the case is sinking their own show.

The anime team didn’t get the hint by all the negative feedback they got on Goh’s character

That’d make sense too, it’s not the first time they’ve done this kind of stuff.

 

[Yce288]

So this is it for Go.
I just hope the next companion wont catch Pokemon so randomly.

 

[Gingertail24]

Finally journeys can be over. SV anime or not lol

 

[Kazuniya]

Since we have what appears to be the final titles, here's hoping we get a special preview after Ash vs Leon.

Maybe an indication of what's in store for the anime after this.

 

[Durrendal]

If the series ends, it's all Goh's fault. My hatred for it keeps increasing by leaps and bounds.

 

[lanmanna]

To be fair, it's a pretty weird situation.

If Episode 135 is the final episode for Journeys, it would mean there's only one month to go for Journeys. However, they haven't announced anything about a new season (not even a vague poster).

But there also hasn't been an announcement that this is the end. Wouldn't they say something about it ending? I still feel like it can go either way.

 

[Kazuniya]

I just realized this title could be a reference to Chloe too, considering this was the first time in her life she really became acquainted with Pokemon.

 

[BlueDragonfangirl]

If Ash’s officially leaves on this horrible series I’m going to give a bunch of angry none stop rants till my face makes the same reactions that user UnovaMaster gives me.

 

[BobbbidyBob]

Wrong!

- For all the story of the anime, Ash never had a direct battle against Team Rocket's leader, until BW. And honestly, it was too short for such an unprecedented time. A rematch is definitely in order, with Ash winning this time.
- Ash's lose at Kanto's League was embarrassing, so I think it has to be compensated. Besides, in Sinnoh it was revealed that to enter in the Champions' League, you have to win the Pokemon League of your homeland. In Ash's case, that's Kanto.
- Ash could have battle Lance in the Pokemon World Coronation Series, but he didn't. I think it's obvious they are saving this battle for another time. Maybe when Ash will battle the Elite 4 of Kanto.
- In order for Ash to truly be "the very best", Ash would definitely have to capture the strongest Pokemon ever: Mewtwo. That would be his ultimate challenge. Besides, considering Ash is probably the only human Mewtwo has truly ever bonded in his life, it doesn't seem to be another option.

Didn’t he bond with a little clone girl?

If this is the end, there are four songs that really need to be put.

• Iku Z! for the epic parts of the battle
• Johto Victory theme for the final part of the battle
• The first English OP (I suppose they will use the japanese one)
• "You and me and Pokemon" for the credits

 

[Morax]

If this is the end there is one song that really needs to be put.

Spoiler

 

[Bortgreen]

Why make a world series and tournament then barely have old characters appear until the tail end and have most of their adventure in one place?

Why have reserves have very little role when they’re selling is as the culmination of ash’s journey?

Why make a big final battle to cap of that journey and then have only two companion there instead of having all of them as a big send off? Not even his supposed best friend of the season that really could’ve been shipped out for his own thing after the figjt?

Why bring back a bunch of big names for the master 8 only to get lackluster usage out of them? Especially with alain who was the most unexpected pick but then having little purpose in being there?

JN’s mantra is ‘Great Concept, Terrible Execution’, and i won’t be suprised by it anymore.

No matter how flaws here might be, if they want to end it all they will

>pokemon bangladesh 2.0

At least that means it's not blocked in other countries like with the official channel!

 

[Pkjoan]

Yo, Pokémon master your heart beats faster...

They did. Earlier this year.

This could be the end of this segment of JN and there is another. But they should of announced that as well, wouldn't they?

Imo, I highly doubt that

 

[U.N. Owen]

It's probably a Pikachu episode since Journeys started with a Pikachu episode and ended with one.
