Yay, Bonnie and Clemont are returning. The future is now thanks to science! Let's see that leaves Lillie, Serena, Cilan, Max, May even though I don't think she'll return, I'll count Brock, and Misty. I guess Tracey too but I choose to ignore him.

Brock already returned in the arceus specials

Lover of underrated characters
Serena I think is safe bet at this point, would like to see Misty and also Lillie's mohn subplot FINALLY resolved already. Might get a Wallace Cup with Lisia and Wallace so that means possibly another Dawn appearence and hopefully just hopefully, May
I'd do anything to see May again!
It sucks being an AG fan, we've gotten literally nothing! Some XY fans may have moaned about no Serena/Clemont up to now but at least they had Korrina! Drake was the only AG character so far and he was just an over glorified cameo, not an PWC opponent Even Sceptile was excluded from the lab episode... :/

Also if somebody tries to be smart, Wallace technically doesn't count as he didn't even appear until DP.

Serena doesnt fit with Journey's ew artstyle.
I understand why the writers don't include her in this series.

But hope that Greninja will come back since the Pokemon are not affected by this artstyle

I know you don't like the newer artstyle but I'm not sure Serena would change THAT much
I feel like the most recent a character is, the less it changes... Bonnie looks identical for example and they even reused XY footage for Korrina
I think the only significant change will be that smile with the little teeth that became more common lately(but was a part of Sugimori style since like BW)

I don’t see anything wrong with Journeys’ art style. Maybe that’s because I’ve seen other anime and games with similar styles.

And just today i reached the point where Lisia appears in ORAS when i played Delta Emerald.
Lisia is a goddess. I love her.

We are so back Zygardebros
Lisia debuting is nice. Love when they use characters that have yet to appear even after their generation is over. The Lumiose siblings and Wallace returning are also welcomed.

Surprise!
Here's to old friends coming back for more! :D

Because I get the feeling we'll be seeing a LOT of old characters this year ;)

I want Serena to appear as redemption from how terribly she was handled in XY. If they keep the hypebait of her crush (not the crush itself) to a minimum then it would be fine imo. I just want to see if she grew more as a character and improved on her performances and battling.
Right? She grew over the course of XY, but all anyone cares about is her crush on Ash... :(

Especially since the mature, smarter Ash from XY is gone...

Just seen on Twitter and confirmed via Serebii's main website:

PM2022's 4th opening will debut on March 4th 2022 and leaked photos reveal Bonnie and Clemont will officially be the next companions to return, as well as Wallace from the Wallace Cup.

Thoughts?
Ok I had a dream that Bonnie and Clemont were returning

I am almost certain they stated at the start that the show runners wanted 123 as the main theme throughout the entire series so people acting surprised its the theme for the fourth time is kinda weird

They said the song would be "rearranged and sung by a variety of artists and singers", but not that it would stay the OP the ENTIRE series.

We're Revealing Info on the Opening Theme!!

The opening theme for the new series "Pocket Monsters"
is produced, written, composed and arranged by music creator "Mafumafu",
who is extremely popular online on sites such as YouTube.

The official Mafumafu website

A variety of artists and singers will be rearranging and singing this Mafumafu song, one after another!
The first to sing this song is "After the Rain (Soraru x Mafumafu)", a duo Mafumafu formed with "Soraru", another artist extremely popular online!
This opening theme that's being performed by a duo whose biggest fans consider the "ultimate duo"
will no doubt liven up this new series featuring double protagonists!!

The official After the Rain website

We'll announce more intriguing info in the future, including the song's title!
Don't miss out on the news!
