Why does ent ash met the other members of the elite four?

[Gym Leader Jasmine]

Ash Met the Elite four on the show with lorelei/prima Drake Bruno lance Agatha And steven Not much of steven though. My question is Why hasn't they shown Wallace as elite four on tv Or steven alot They are mostly shadow in the tv show? they should be in it more?

 

[CyberCubed]

You're slightly mixed up, the people in shadows in the opening are the Frontier Brains from Emerald, not the Elite 4.

I hope that Ash will meet all the Elite 4 someday, but we still have no idea how a trainer properly challenges Elite 4 members in a real match.

 

[Gym Leader Jasmine]

Wallace and steven do not appear in the anime tv show i am not talking about BF at all. About Elite four and why stven and wallace does not appear in the anime/tv show.

 

[ChaosMage]

Well, that's like meeting any four celebrities. It isn't likely that anyone would just casually come across one.

Actually Steven did appear in the anime. It was in the first season of AG but I can't remember what episode it was for. I think it was the episode before they met Brawly.

 

[Gym Leader Jasmine]

Yea But ash sometime met them by coincidence. Ash met prima in the orange league and lance in johto saga Drake in Hoenn league. and bruno in the indigo league. I think it is time to introduce wallace and steven little more well more of Wallace in my opinion as of the elite four.

 

[Rezduis]

They make random apperances

It was the episode featuring aron and its evolutions... just about some fooling around in a cave.

 

[intergalactic platypus]

Prima and Drake got real battles and Bruno and Lance got half decent episodes, but poor Steven got a stupid ep with Arons digging holes...I think the E4 should make a structured appearence where he actually takes them on. They have some great characters like Will, and it would be a shame to waste their potential. Perhaps when Ashes reign ends or the show is cancelled then he will take on the E4, but something tells me we won't see a proper E4 ep like that till the end. Too bad really, the E4 is pretty cool

"A Hole Lotta Trouble"

Ash has met a lot of them, Bruno, Loreli, Lance, Steven, Drake, Agatha & Koga if you want to count him.

 

[Jikkle]

All the writers do is bring in the elite 4 people to show that Ash still sucks and has a long way to go teach Ash the morale lesson of watching his ego. Think the average at least one of those episodes a saga.

 

[Kuroshi]

I actually think it is quite possible that Ash will meet every member of the Elite Four. He's already met every member of the Kanto E4. And the fact that Agatha showed up, proves that it could be possible for them to dig up older E4 members.
I am pretty certian that Wallace will show up this season or next, the fact that they didn't just have him as the Sootopolis Gym Leader says that they will probably have him showing up somewhere.

 

[JazzJazz]

I am pretty certian that Wallace will show up this season or next, the fact that they didn't just have him as the Sootopolis Gym Leader says that they will probably have him showing up somewhere.

I'm also thinking that they'll somehow acknowledge Wallace... perhaps in a similar manner to Prima, with Ash battling him and losing only to later learn some valuable lessons.

 

[Infinite Master Sceptile]

Will the writers ever acknowledge the existence of Will or Karen?

 

[Gym Leader Jasmine]

Yes they should Acknowledge the existence of Will, Karen, Glacia, Wallace and more of steven appearing in the anime.

 

[Geki]

Ash will probably never face the rest of the old Elite Four once Diamond and Pearl's region start up. I have a feeling that the series will end after the D/P saga. If not, I will since I have vowed to quit Pokemon after the saga has aired.

 

[Kuroshi]

The same was thought of Agatha, and yet she showed up three whole seasons after Indigo. So Will and Karen cannot be totally written off as never going to show up.

 

[Flamez]

Well the writers have kept a little theory from what i've observed.
Kanto Region- We saw Bruno
Orange Islands- We saw Prima
Johto Region- We saw Lance- Brock i believe stated him to be the champion of the elite 4.
Hoenn- We saw Drake, I dont consider Steven as an elite 4 member simply because it was never foretold that way it was only said that hes a really strong trainer. Or maybe im just misunderstanding and he is a member of the elite 4. Lance returned he had to the writers love the guy.lol.
Kanto battle Frontier- Right at the start we saw Agatha.
One Elite 4 member for each region which is rather slow.

And a question to someone who is familar with pokemon in japan, Is the anime even doing good there does it get good ratings?
Last time i checked pikachu was like god there. and pokemon is nintendos second highest selling franchise with over 100 million dollars/copies shipped worldwide first being mario ofcourse.

Indeed, the anime doesn't limit people to their respective regions (in terms of the games)... they can show up anywhere if the writers decide to give them a look-in (which they should definitely do!).

Agatha was there to say "Buy FR/LG which has me in".She was just commercial. So unless Will and Karen will be in D/P they will stay in the games.
