So I'm a retired Icelandic psychologist. I recently started watching this show and I figured I'd put together some in-depth character studies on what I found about the 4 main characters so far. I'd encourage y'all to give it a read as I'm pretty sure there's at least one thing you haven't pondered before, and I always thought that knowing and studying the characters is half of what makes watching a tv show fun. However note that I really only covered episodes 1-40 in this study.

Sophocles
Let's start by taking a look at his father since I believe his father is very pivotal in how Sophocles is the way he is, despite how little we know about him. The first thing to note is that his father often dresses up in a bizzare outfit. He seems to do so in secret. The reason for this is that this outfit is actually their families traditional tribal uniform. I've deduced that Sophocles has not always lived in Alola. No, he was actually an only child, who grew up in the north wilderness with his father before moving to Alola. He comes from a tribe of cannibals who are very uncivilized. This explains his dads tendency to dress up in his tribal suit every so often and go out...roaming. And also why he doesn't want anyone else to know about it. The reason they moved to Alola, of course, was because Sophocles is so terrible at running. His dad figured that he wouldn't make it that long if they stayed amongst the other cannibals so he decided to move to Alola for his own good where Sophocles then picked up the art of Science.

Though due to growing up in a society that puts such a trivial outlook on peoples lives, you'd think...

I really dont want to watch Serena's goodbye episode, it feels like shit realizing she is getting thrown away for the travesty that is S/M.

Rest in piece best girl, you were the only one good enough for Ash. ;-;
>>
... a scientist who grew up in that sort of environment would become something like Dr. Frankenstein only perhaps even more madder. And I think to an extent he is a bit of a "mad scientist", multiple times he has tested his explosive products on vulnerable guinea pigs. Why just the other day I caught an episode where he put a "cheerleader hat" that he knew would explode on Lillie's head.

This leads me to...

Why do his inventions keep blowing up? Well upon close inspection I believe the reason is that he programs them to, though not intentionally. The way he was raised, the cannibalistic instinct is just too strong inside him and without perhaps meaning to, he makes his inventions homicidal with the unintended intent to bring some fresh meat home. You can see he is frequently apologetic afterwards, perhaps because of embarrassment or frustrations with his subconscious.

So while I believe he does show restraint, he still can't completely ditch his old cannibalistic ways. Why do you think he follows Ash? The truth is because Ash was just too delicious to pass up. You can hear his father, after saving Ash from his fall from the Melemele lighthouse, grumble to himself "mmmm you' delicious, boy". This was removed from the dub airing. If I went further into analyzing his dad, I'm afraid it would be purely speculatory, I'm unsure whether his dad still eats people or not, or whether he still encourages Sophocles to hunt. I need to see more of their interaction to be able to tell. Another thing worth noting is that whenever Sophocles thinks to himself, he frequently refers to the others as "meat sacks" or "walking supper". You might say these are terms that he was taught to use while growing up but the fact that he never says them out loud makes me think it's something rooted deeper into his psychology. I believe he has a degree of "self-loathing" and most likely won't tell the others about his problems, possibly due to embarrassment.

>>28823172
I will miss the XY family, but seriously if I'm leaving it's because Sun and Moon looks so bad next to any other season
I was hyped at first because Alola is the perfect setting for stuff like nice adventures, Ash doing the trials, discovering Alola forms by himself, etc...
And now he's staying in school, and at first it wasn't that bad, but the art style change is just too much for me
Also these threads have been pretty bad lately, and I doubt they will recover

Ash
Ash is severely depressed for what should be obvious reasons. Losing best-companion Clemont as well as several other things that happened to him during the XY anime. His jump from the Melemele lighthouse was most certainly done in a suicide attempt. In fact, he believe's he's in the afterlife afterward up until around the first gym. I know, I really think the anime took Ash's obliviousness a bit too far there, but at least it was only for a few episodes. As you can see his depression comes back after he loses against the first gym, for a brief moment he showed his true feelings to the world. But it was soon erased afterward and he continues to put a brave face on for his friends who he probably secretly envies as to him it appears they have no problems. He most likely won't tell the others about his problems, possibly due to apathy.

Lillie
As we all know, Lillie is a terrible terrible conspiracy theorist. If she was open about what she thought about everything she'd no doubt be the most annoying character in the show. So to quickly recap, she recognizes Ash from his suicidal jump tape as someone she met a long time ago at a camp and then desperately tries to meet up with him. When they first met she was wandering around scared that the island they were having camp at was actually a giant UFO with carnivorous aliens inside, which may or may not have been true. Ash momentarily "saved" her and afterward, while it doesn't show it, it's heavily implied Lillie went full psycho on him, and by "psycho" i mean she just heavily red-pilled him with half-bullcrap conspiracies. Which with Ash being Ash probably went inside one ear and out the other. The reason current-Lillie wanted to meet him so much was perhaps because she thought he'd be the one to finally understand her. You'll notice she has like no friends so I think she's a bit lonely, especially with how she feels everything is out to get her. Also maybe she wanted to see if she could retrieve sleeper-information from him but I'm not sure yet, I thought some of that would be answered when they finally reached Team Skull's hideout but that turned out to be anticlimactic. When Lillie finally meets up with Ash she is very disappointing to learn that Ash did not remember anything she said to him (As was predicted). She still has yet to tell/remind him, but hasn't yet. Maybe she's paranoid he's been brainwashed.

Well anyways while I said she had no friends I do believe that she had at least one friend at some point. Now I didn't see this until I fully connected all the dots between all the Lillie episodes. The first one being the "pokedance" episode. You might think it's strange for a conspiracy theorist who is dealing with extreme paranoia to want to put herself in the limelight. I did too, I thought maybe it was just lazy writing. But then I looked at her video and noticed her Vulpix outfit was most likely a reference to a real-life conspiracy dealing with MK-ULTRA'd celebrities and their weird fashion habits. In particular, Lady Gaga. I then looked through the rest of her video and found that each section was actually ripe with symbolism referencing both IRL conspiracies and potential conspiracies in-universe. Such as the hand symbol she makes with Vulpix while both nodding their heads. So I can gather that her whole video was made as a weak jab against the Pokedance empire. From this I could gather that she probably has something against Pokedance, something hidden deep and I wasn't quite sure what, and I'm still not quite sure what but can give a good guess (But you'll have to wait a bit)
>>
>>28823810
>I fear not, just stuff for Serena's episode apparently
Can you read? Explain to me how what I said has anything to do with the crap you just wrote. And I'm a Lilliefag, anon.
>>
The next Lillie episode was the "Pokebeans" episode. This episode introduces Plumeria who I believe was the "friend" that Lillie used to have. You can see that Lillie instantly seems to dislike Plumeria as if they had met before, as if they already had something going on. Though for some reason Lillie doesn't want to let her friends know this. At the end of the episode you also see Plumeria threaten to tell Ash about Lillie's secret [THIS IS IMPORTANT] as it reveals Plumeria has a tendency to tattle-tale which was a big piece in what I'm about to tell you. Now you see there's something we're missing, and what I'm about to say may not be obvious at first but when you connect the dots it becomes apparant. Eventually over some issue, Plumeria finally got fed up with Lillie babbling to her all the time about mk-ultra/team Aether/nurse joy conspiracies and told Lillie's mother, much like what she threatened to do at the end of the pokebean episode to Ash. Once Lillie's mother found out what Lillie was like, naturally this resulted in multiple visits to a doctor. Which then resulted in Lillie picking up a bogus hobby such as Tauros racing which brings us to the current day. This is the reason Lillie is able to carry herself so well so that no one else knows about her real thoughts on the world. Even her own mother thought she had changed if she trusted her enough to go on a journey by herself, which implies that Lillie has been passive for several years now. This also brings up an issue about Lillie and her mothers relationship but I won't get into that right now.

Ironically, he is the one shitting up threads with his incessant whining about how much he hates S&M and how he will leave these threads forever just to return the next day with the same posts.
>>
NOW the reason I brought up the Pokedance epsiode is because I believe pokedance was the reason that Plumeria finally got fed up with Lillie. Perhaps Plumeria had signed up for an account and Lillie flipped out about it, I don't know. But the reason I think this is true is because primarily through the shows narration. If you were going to introduce a character that had such a profound impact on a main characters past then you'd probably want to foreshadow it a bit. Which is what the pokedance episode is for. But...I could be wrong. However the english dub title for the pokedance episode IS called "A pokedance of things to come" so it's not like I pulled this completely out of thin air.

Strangely in the episode where the're in the haunted manor, she repeatedly expresses some of her conspiracy theories. I do not know what led her to let herself go so much there. Must have been the full moon.

She most likely won't tell the others about her problems, possibly due to estrangement.
>>
Lana
Lana was hard to figure out. I finally noticed that if you look reeeeallly hard, like squint your eyes and turn your monitor upside-down hard, you can see that Lana isn't really there in the first 2 episodes. In fact she makes her first appearance in episode 3. The reason for this, as was mentioned above is that Lana is not really Sophocles sister. "Lana" seems to have brainwashed Sophocles to think that she's his sister. If you look at Ash when he sees Lana for the first time in Episode 3, a slightly curious expressions crosses his face, but since at the time he's convinced he's wandering through the underworld he doesn't really think much of it. It's reasons for joining Ash and co. seem to be purely for freeloading. The commotion that Ash made during his suicidal jump likely caught it's attention. It occasionally overdoes it's "little girl" act. When listening to the Japanese voice I thought it sounded like she could have been a smoker at some point, but most likely has given that up. Possibly vapes. I could go more into what I think of him, but that would be entering quantum psychology. It most likely won't tell the others about itself, likely. Because that would be blowing it's cover.

Conclusion
Most likely these 4 will continue along their trends, not telling the others anything until the final episode, where they will all likely and inevitably commit suicide together. Except Lana who will probably just go freeload somewhere else. The most likely method they will use is jumping off a cliff seeing as how this is a kids show and you can't really show dead bodies.

May's goodbye was the most rushed. The only reason it doesn't seem too bad is because it was a continuation of the previous episode, but her actual departure was lackluster. Max got more of a farewell than May did.

Although they made up for it with May's DP cameo departure, which was done a lot better than her actual one.

They're going to call him a simpleton for not knowing an Exeggutor is a dragon and give him demeaning jobs. When the legendaries inevitably attack and everyone hides in the shelter, he's the only one out there to take them all on by himself and Pikachu. When it's all over, he's going to collapse and everyone is going to come out, find him and call him a fraidy-cat for fainting. He just laughs it off and this will continue until mid-season when he goes full z-move on everyone's ass in the inevitable school vs school competition where he sweeps the entire other team by himself.

>>28825616
I dunno. I mean, even if he didn't win any tournaments, I would presume he would get a generous cash prize for ranking within the top 16 or something. I mean, Pokemon tournaments are really serious shit in their world. I can't imagine people not getting paid for it.
>>
>>28825616
Winning isn't that all important. What matters the most in life is if you get to fuck and impregnate the girl you love. Ash hasn't found the girl yet so he isn't a loser.....yet

I'm not sure why people complain about the anime teaching that lesson, if more cartoons taught it we would have far less people becoming disillusioned with life once they reached adulthood because everything they were told when they were kids was a lie.

>>28825616
Maybe if you worried about what's really important instead of being blind, you wouldn't have that problem.
>>
>>28825674
Well, they do get money for winning against other trainers in battle. And they did spend money at that fancy hotel once. So money is used, but it's probably one of those situation where it's used to maintain economic stability of sorts.

>>28825706
Since I'm curious and all. I'm going to use this chart as the basis for what if they do give out cash prizes for ranking in tournaments. I'm using PGA since it's the least popular of the major sports and to give a conservative estimate of the payout.

Assuming he gets the absolute lowest amount for his bracket.
Indigo: Top 16: $160,000
Silver: Top 8: $293,000
Ever Grande: Top 8: $293,000
Lily of the Valley: Top 4: $480,000
Vertress: Top 8: $293,000
Luminose: Runner-up: $1,080,000

If Pokemon was real, and Ash had participated in all of these leagues with assumed cash prizes, Ash now has at least the net worth of $2,599,000. And that's not factoring in the various one-off contests that he has won, the Orange league championship and clearing Frontier. Ash is beyond rich by our real life standards.

Not the kind of spinoff I wanted, Rock Lee can be a comedic character, but that's all they explored in that show, he used to have so much depth as a character (Chunin exams, backstory, vs Kimimaro ect..)

Besides completing the Island Trials, which other tasks will b assigned to Satoshi? Catch an specific pokemon, study their habitats, help pokemon in troubles? The possibilities of this new scenario are manifold.
>>
>>28825448
We see Ash dumbfounded in the Tauros scene during the trailer, and this scan has the same track from that scene. What if this takes place after that and Ash finds Lillie attractive which was why he was like that in that particular scene from the trailer? How would Amourshippers and /padt/ react?

Reminder that "childhood friends" never win the MC in anime. Serena was doomed to fail.
>>
>>28826029
Let's not forget that Ash could get a free ride with some connections. Being somewhat of a second (grand)son to Oak would probably leave Samson Oak with a good impression of Ash.
>>
>>28826504
Most likely I will be wrong, but I can see Satoshi stumbling upon Lillie while trying to run from the Tauros. It' a nice way to start a friendship between them. But I dare not say it will be ship tease on the level we had with Serena.
>>
>>28826540
I've got a feeling that it could develop into ship tease down the line. I could imagine that the 2nd half of SM that has yet to be written will be fan pandering to the max due to the reaction of XYZ 38 and the initial SM reveal.

I kinda hope Ash does have a crush on her or some other girl. Not because I want to spite Amourfags, but because it could give Ash a bit of development.
>>
>>28826527
Smason Oak might have seen Ash performance in Kalos and was interested enough to offer him a place in the school. sounds too farfetched?

If they're waiting for reactions of the end of XY, they're far more likely to bring Serena back in the second year of Sun/Moon if they want to do a shipping subplot again, or the S/M revamp fails, or whatever.

It's going to be rushed to hell and back

It's going to be 40 minutes of flashbacks, 10 minutes of fight, and 10 minutes of the scene with Sasuke surrendering and Sakura coming along

I do actually feel like with the rise of streaming overtaking TV and alternate ways to watch things that it would be much easier now for kids to watch what came before than it was before.

But even then, if the show/property is big enough, people are almost expected to have some kind of idea of what came before. All the long-running shonens like One Piece, Naruto, and Dragonball etc have been going on just as long as Pokemon and no one complains about continuity in those.

If you want to catch up on the complete story of Goku, Luffy or Naruto's adventures, you can go read the manga, which is available for cheap in used bookstores and can be read in the store if you just want to read through it once.
If you want to catch up on the complete story of Satoshi's adventures, you HAVE to watch the anime, since there's no other, faster-and-cheaper way to consume it.

That's the difference. It's a pretty notable one.

Dawn probably got the best sendoff, then Misty. Makes me wonder how the XY crew will get.

Its kind of bizarre in retrospect because May was only the second female companion to leave the show, and back then all we had to compare her with was Misty's sendoff...or Brock's during Orange Islands.

>they will never release a Tripokalon/Showcase toyline with a big electronic Showcase arena, packed with Serena, Millefeui and Shauna dolls for competing
>they will never sell supplementary dolls of the other performers, complete with interchangeble outfits and moncolle figures of the 'mon they use
>these toys will never give canonical names to the background performers

I wish the Pokemon Company embraced merchandise like other companies used to when toys were a thing.

Forget it Serena; Lillie doesn't want the Ash.

Even though /padt/ on vp will likely come to an end soon, I have to say I'm glad I found this place.

No obsessive original trio or Misty fans, nobody who thinks Brock should stay a long time, huge support for May and Dawn and the Contest oriented characters, people loved Bonnie/Clemont, Serena's crush was nice despite her slow start, people love Ash being competent, etc.

This has basically been everything I've been thinking about the anime for the last 15 years. While we don't all agree on everything, its great people wanted the anime to be legitimately good.
>>
>>28828782
It was showing signs of being good until the most disgusting display of cowardice I have ever seen in my life that was XYZ38 undid literally everything the preceding 3 years had worked for in the span of 2-3 minutes. I am not exaggerating one bit when I say that whoever made the decision to change the ending needs to be fired and barred from working in media ever again.
>>
>>28828796
Even more bizarre is they knew they were revamping the show with Sun/Moon and dropping the leagues, so why not let Ash win the last league?

It literally makes no sense.
>>
>>28828782
original trio is good though, it's what the characters were created for
>>
>>28828826
For the first season though when they thought the anime would only go on a year. Its why the original trio had no chemistry in Johto.
>>
>>28828826
>original trio is good though

Only because it was less cookie cutter until Johto-filler, and because of dynamic.

This has been a growing problem, they keep Ash every gen, but he hasn't had any real stakes since DP. Now they just hammer people over the head about how Ash is a good hearted shounen-like protag when even kids know that by now. If they're going to to never have a league victory there needs to be more purpose for Ash losing beside's 'he wasn't strong enough' (Yes Alan had a reason to win, but that's not the topic).
>>
>>28828845
Which is why I thought XY worked. He was portrayed as the ace, everyone looked up to him, him beating Alan would have been a huge accomplishment, etc.

The whole XY anime would have worked well for Ash's final saga. There's no place to take him from here...as seen with sun/moon

2,6 kk in hard cash? And that's lowest sensible estimate?

realistically he wouldn't have been able to do 8 leagues without growing up, 160k at 10 is still pretty good
