Its also worth noting that in games Misty game counterpart in Gold/Silver worships E4 Lorelei too planning to leave gym to travel and become stronger.
Followed with BW2 games in world tournament where Misty is traveling trainer saying how she plans battle and beat all kind of strong trainers.
So maybe in future generations if gamefreak revisit first gen characters, Maybe Junichi Masuda do follow up promoting Misty in games to first E4 female using pure water type.
Like they did with Koga or Caitlin in BW games.
I dont know if you know this, but mr. Masuda is quiter often in contact with Mist VA Mayumi IIzuka attending to his promotions when receiving rewards. Talking about anime and helping to collect funds for something pokemon related.
I can give you links if interested(though its in Japanese)?
About anime i thought more akong the lines of writers coming up with some story where Misty joins Ash on her journey to go through rigorous trauining, battle evaluators and enter tournaments in company of her frienbds while going in same direction eventually ending as Lorelei or sime other high class water trainer apprentice leaving group at some point of journey(something like arc of 15 to 20 episodes would be really cool actually imo). And by tying her into E4 arc would make her both relevant to story and influence Ash growth by giving him insight in how E4 works getting to know their strength and weakness revealing to him more about ways how to earn right to challenge and beat them.
That wouldnt clash with Ash growth because Misty wouldnt become E4 but just be in training and passing whatever tasks she would need to be took in consideration. Beside Ash is aiming for pokemon master, strongest trainer in world title being leagues above E4 and even champions so even if Misty became E4 when anime ends(through epilogue in ending credits), May, Dawn top coordinators etc Ash would still be above. :sweat:
What do you think? Is such solution acceptable?
