If everyone had a quest, it would be quite boring and rushed, if they were to do it within 191-192 episodes.

I would rather it be rushed than have every other episode a boring filler. I'm not saying all fillers are boring, but a lot of them are. Like the Dusk Stone one. That one was just painful to watch.

I think that they already confirmed that Dento would do that.
Nothing has been confirmed so far. There were small blurbs on each character released some time ago, but neither of those explained exactly what their roles will be in the anime.

Everything else has been fan speculation. It's almost weird how sure people are that Dento is going to do one thing and Iris is going to do another.

Then in that case, I really didn't know. I thought what everyone else was saying was true.

Dento is a Pokemon Sommelier(sp). That means he can see how well bonded a pokemon and trainer are or something. That doesn't necessarily mean that he has Brock's job.

We only know the following:

- Iris is a wild girl who eat berries for good and travels around with kibago for some reason;
- Dento is a poke-sommelier-whatever who can say if a trainer and a pokemon are friends and what to do to be better friends;
- And Ash, we're pretty sure he'll go to Isshu, because of the previous character art.

Nothing more than that. Other things are only fanbase speculation, despite the fact everyone knows Ash will most probably have the regional bird and one (or more) starter(s). Iris, I really can't think in other thing beside that beard guy from the previous character design is somewhat related to her. And Dento... just have a impression he and Aloe are buddies, and by his costume, I kinda believe he have some cooking ability.

Yeah, but Brock was almost similar.

True that, Dento may just end up being a cockier version of Brock who actually gets the ladies.

Maybe, and he'll reject them all. And eventually he might fall in love with someone, just to make it the reverse of what happened with Brock.

I prefer the reject them all part. I doubt the writers will make a main character fall in love at this stage, though thats for the shipping fans to decide. Moving back on topic, as long as Dento isn't a direct copy of Brock, then I don't give two shits what the writers do.

Remember that some girls were in love with Brock. Maybe he'll fall in love with one or two girls, then move on.

I'd like Dento to be as clueless as Ash is with love now that'd be funny. Iris would be in with a group of guys who don't have a clue about love LOL. Dento doesn't seem like that though, but hey if he turns down girls that'd be greatXD I truley hope he does those new contests, it'd make him ten times awesome.

I think the writers know by now that they need to move on with love.

Just as long as the BW trio has an interesting dynamic, that is good enough for me.

I doubt Iris or Dento will become that popular as characters unless they're really well handled, but if they're interesting enough that is fine.

They both will interact with Ash no matter what.As far as Dento and Iris are concerned, they look like opposites of each other i doubt the writers will not have them argue.

I think that would offend some viewers who would rather take the wild side than the formal life and vice versa. I like the idea, but you never know what to expect.

Well female characters have always been more popular than the male ones.The wild side of Iris will probably get her lots of fans, something she doesn't seem to have right now.

Hopefully they won't portray the formal life like every other show does.They should focus on both positives and the negatives.Then again, this pokemon a show that isn't very deep so they will probably take the easy way out you know, stereotypes and those cliches about how formal life sucks and wild life is better.

I love how we have another character of color on the main cast, it adds diversity! :)

No no no, my friend. The personality adds diversity. How a character is written adds diversity. Hair color? Skin color? Cosmetic changes. Stuff that on the outside looks different. If the show was really catering to diversity, we would've seen a diverse character of ethnicities a long time ago, like all those politcally correct shows. Something like "Captain Planet and the Planeteers".

Yes, and no. How a character is written is important, but how often do we get black characters, and as a black teenager, I am very pleased with Iris!
