So...condensed Journeys?
Every end is a new beginning!OMG just realised if they air an episode a week this series will finish just before my baby’s due date My real jari boy may never share the world with the original jari boy, Pikachu or Rockets!
Too many emotions please send help…
I hope that when they meet old characters there'll actually be something interesting happening with them rather than it just being a soulless nostalgia fanservice showcase like the Kanto episodes in SM. Though Journeys handled returns pretty well. But still, with character returns being the whole premise of this miniseries, I'm a little bit worried.
At the start of 2021 if I’m not mistaken (although without breaks it could even have been 2020).Kind of crazy that DRACOVISH would be Ash's final capture, lmao.
I think that's the sad part. The idea of Ash leaving the series will always be controversial, but the notion of Journeys being Ash's swan song doesn't sit well with me. In fact, if you watch the final episode of diamond and pearl, you would see a more fitting conclusion than what we have seen as far, and likely what we probably will see in the next 11 episodes. If you're going to write Ash out, you need to give him a series that leads to that conclusion.This is such a big change, but makes me slightly annoyed at how they handled Journeys.
If this was the goal from the start, why have him catch a team of 6 and herald them as his best when they could have spent the season developing and bringing in all his past Pokémon. Oh well… Bon voyage Ash!
That phrase makes me pretty convinced the Latias we see in the preview is the same one from movie 5. Would provide some solid proof of the movie being canon in the process.Misty’s weird MIA status in JN is made up for here at least, my new question is why go to old regions to see “Pokémon they’ve bonded with” when nearly all of them are with them, Oak’d or Kukui’d
