New Titles

[Sushi]

Some TV magazines revealed new titles, and were posted on PokéAni:

AG 189 (465): First Pokémon! Final Battle!!
Title in kana: 最初のポケモン！最後の戦い!!
Airdate: 08/24/06

AG 190 (466): Deciding Match! VS Regice!!
Title in kana: 決戦！VSレジアイス!!
Airdate: 08/31/06

There's a bit of confusion over at PokéAni though. Apparently, one magazine says that an episode called "Ash VS May! The Last Battle!!" is set to air on the 31th, whereas a different (probably more reliable) one writes that the Regice battle will take place that day. PokéAni left the 'Ash VS May' title out and only submitted the other two, so that's what I'm going to do as well. So better ignore the third title for now.

Normally I'd wait until things are cleared up, but chances are that we'll be left in the dark about this until the new NewType issue comes out in August, so I decided to post them anyway.

And yes, I think the Final/Last Battle crap is annoying too ;P

First post! (Well, second post, actually.)

My guess is that this particular Battle Pyramid battle is a two-parter. Interesting...

EDIT: Well, any episode title found after that should tell exactly what Ash is gonna do next in his journey (obviously).

 

[CyberCubed]

Hm, so these two episodes are the Pyramid I'm guessing. Regice shows up as expected, but who is Ash battling in the first episode? The other Regi's or Brandon's other Pokemon?

That Ash Vs. May title is interesting, because the title makes it sound important, as if they're in a competition or something.

Considering there are like...three episodes after this before Sept. 18th, we're getting right down to the wire it seems.

The first episode sounds like Pikachu is in his final battle.....

Which I believe we had a episode with a simmilar title near the end of Johto.

And Regice!

Hmm...sounds like Ash beats Registeel, and then the decider is against Regice, maybe? Oo;

First Pokemon? Dunno what the hell that could mean. >>;

 

[Cyndaquil]

for some reason first pokemon final battle mad eme think of Ash vs May with Pika vs Combusken. that or he faces regirock and registeel in rematches and beats them leaving only regice left for the next ep

 

[Judai-and-sho]

It sounds like maybe a way to trick us. Well this basicly confirms that Ash loses to Brandon in the upcoming episode. Im guessing he will fight and beat the 2 he lost 2 and than have to deal with Regice. The first title could mean something we wouldnt ususlly think of.

 

[Ash6K]

Hmm....guessing that the first pokemon part of that title will mean Pikachu and that final battle part would mean it's Ash's final frontier battle. He'll probably be beat the other two Regi's and Regice and Pikachu face off onto the next episode. As for the Ash vs. May part...it sounds interesting but we'll see what happens with it.

Ash doesn't know what type advantages are, my guess is that he uses Swellow.

I guess you haven't watched the anime in a while either. -_-

In the UK, we don't have the BF saga. ;_;

 

[Ranger Registeel]

I think the "First Pokemon" means that it will be the first Pokemon in the battle on both sides. Its sorta like "Begin-grand Festival" they got tired of using begin, so used First Pokemon

 

[CyberCubed]

Indeed, that doesn't have to mean Pikachu. Its just the first Pokemon Ash starts battling out with, hopefully another one of his Oak Pokemon.

 

[Almighty Zard]

i'm hoping that first title is not part of the battle pyramid episode cause i've said it time and time again beating all three of the Regi's in the span of two episodes is bad writing and should not happen, look at how long Charizard and Articuno got to go at it, if these battles want to be good then each one of them would need just as much time, and you can't squeeze all three fights into two episodes due to that. Seriously i hope the last Pyramid battle is a one parter just because i'm tired of seeing the dang place already,sheesh they could have used some of that emphasis for somewhere else.

But i gotta say that first title makes me think Ash is battling May for some reason, cause that's the first thing that comes to my mind after seeing the first pokemon thing.

 

[intergalactic platypus]

These are really odd titles. This final battle stuff could imply a competetion, or truly a final battle. I have a feeling Ash and May's future on the anime could be confirmed by these eps

so you think thier leaveing or staying your statement goes either way......, in anycase i think Pikachu vs Combusken would be an alright fight.

 

[CyberCubed]

I don't think either Ash or May's fates will be decided in these titles.

Remember, we still have three unknown titles left before D/P begins. I imagine any changes to the group will be made apparent in those last three episodes.

well if people want brock to leave then obviously one of the remaining episodes would go to his departure which then narrows it down to 2.

 

[HoennMaster]

Well these are some interesting titles to say the least. It looks like the Pyramid ges two more episode to me.
