"The New Pocket Monsters Series", starts April 2023

Idk maybe if you hope really hard enough or keep the faith up, they might grant your request and make him Champion again, just keep waiting on it. I'm sure it's gonna be any day now.

What request? I'm just saying OLM did Alder super dirty. No one can really make him recover as the mess they made him to be.

Bringing Ash back in PM2023 would be a neat way to connect the new series to what came

What for?
The fact that Satoshi is leaving does not mean that all subsequent series have to be related to him in some way.
PM2023 is supposed to be a new story with new MCs and therefore shouldn't be connected to "Satoshi's saga".

AU or not an AU, that's the vibe I'm getting here.

Exactly. Having a new AU instead of constantly chaining the series to Ash is much better

All good things must come to an end...

Regarding the Champion, IF this an AU, I could maybe see him or her in a more cynical take, someone who has lost the thrill of battling and forgotten what the word “Champion” means. Also, their ace Pokemon (headcanon Arcanine, for example) has picked their master’s slovenly lifestyle.

At this point Ash stans have to be trolling for attention and unserious. He’s been on screen for two generations to technically go by. Meanwhile the rest of us say goodbye to her favorite characters every few cycle.

This has gotta be trolling, I refuse to believe.

This is pretty much like when Misty left and was replaced by May lol

They took a character who's been both stagnant and inconsistent since 2010? They're awesome!

Not sure you can really say stagnant, other than still being 10.

I’m convinced you haven’t actually watched the damn show if you think he’s been stagnant since 2010. Be serious.

As an Ash fan, I am deeply embarrassed by such dumb takes. Ash has to go someday and now's the best time while he's at his peak.

She was replaced by a much better and interesting character

Regarding the Champion, IF this an AU, I could maybe see him or her in a more cynical take, someone who has lost the thrill of battling and forgotten what the word “Champion” means. Also, their ace Pokemon (headcanon Arcanine, for example) has picked their master’s slovenly lifestyle.

Sooo... Larry then.

New press release:

Information on new characters and cast members of the new series of the popular anime Pocket Monsters (airs on the TV Tokyo Network every Friday at 6:55pm, officially abbreviated "Anipoke"), which will be broadcast starting with a 1 hour special on April 14th, has been revealed.

The characters announced today are Amethio (voiced by Shun Horie) and his partner, the Paldean Pokémon Soublades, as well as Amethio's fellow members of the organization "Explorers", Zir (voiced by Kohsuke Tanabe) and his partner Pokémon Sidon, and Conia (voiced by Arisa Shida) and her Partner Pokémon Golduck.

In the trailer, Amethio is seen blocking Liko and Nyahoja's way... What could the Explorers' goal be? The costumed celebrity and online streamer "Gurumin" (voiced by Yoshino Aoyama) was shown as well.

A comment from Shun Horie, the voice of Amethio:
I thought I might just be hallucinating... I was so nervous that when I arrived at the studio they might just ask me what I was doing there... but now that we've actually started recording, it seems that I'm actually seriously going to be in the Pokémon anime! I'm so happy.
I hope I'll be able to give people courage through my acting the same way the Pokémon used to give me courage. The first video game I ever bought with my own money was Pocket Monsters Sapphire; Back then I just bulldozed through using nothing but attack moves, but now I'm able to battle using Growl and Screech most effectively.
That adult me is now playing Amethio, a character that seems to be charged with a weighty mission despite just being a teenager. Make sure to watch the show to see how he gets involved with Liko and the others.
