We've sat through Ash for 20 years and more than 900+ episodes, I shudder to think if Ash is still around for 30 years. There goes all hope of Ash ever getting a good conclusion. It retroactively makes the entire anime feel pointless if there's no "ending" to it all.

We don't get our raws from PM, anon. Not unless there's a delay with raws for an episode of the anime proper. If there is a delay for raws an anime episode or of something else really important, then in some cases PM releases a raw.

I don't think they're going to release a raw of this special because it's really not all that urgent, but what do I know.

>>31098478
And then Mallow and Lillie start making out.

Chicken pls.

So is Ash going to battle only the totem Pokemon and the Kahuna?
Doesn't sound like much to me.

>>31098965
He will probably lose against Hala.

What would have to be the lowest the ratings would have to go for the TVTokyo execs to realize the anime going on in its current form isn't doing well for them to do a huge overhaul? Maybe it might finally convince them Ash has run his course, and finally give him a proper ending.

Then do a real reboot with a new main character. I think SM's ratings will fall regularly to the 2.0's as we progress.

>>31098983
Fuck off, Scott.

>>31098965
It's the first trial in the anime. The rest could be different, longer or just a battle like Dragon trial.

>>31099009
Will Ash get a team that covers all the crystals? It sounds like a waste if he doesn't use all the crystals he wins.

Mallow and Serena are taller than Ash. Dawn is about the same size as him. Misty was taller than Ash in the OS, although not so much in AG.

May was noticeably shorter than Ash. Iris about the same. May is probably the shortest main girl besides Lana.

Dawn was literally designed to look the most Japanese of the main girls. In the games her hair is also much darker looking like black hair. Her outfit, personality/demeanor, hairstyles...its all very Japanese. Probably why Dawn also became so popular in Japan.

Many of the other girls look western or european.

>>31099780
Well, Ash will have to visit Aether Paradise eventually. I'm not sure if Lillie will be there or not.

Possibly gives it a less-powerful version of Arceus' type-immunity ability.

There is no jokemon if that's what you are asking. Rowlet is a comfymon though.

>>31100381
Just some healthy stretching exercises.

Kind of stretching exercise probably

>>31100396
Rowlet.

>>31100418
Depends on what you consider a jokemon, a big piece of shit like Chespin or something more along the lines of Aipom or Dedenne. Rowlet could fill the latter.

>>31100436
Will you post it here?

Was Chespin the XY version of Oshawott or Brock?

>>31100526
Oshawott definitely.

>>31100448
It was definitely the lesser good of the Johto Pokémon.

>>31100436
It should be sportash and sportserena.

>>31100479
Literally a joke character like Chespin or Oshawott. Rowlet is not receiving that treatment.

>>31100498
Blue board, dumbass.

>>31100396
No.

>>31100526
Oshawott.

>>31098414

Except GT. There are reports about that series being constantly kicked out of top 10.

>>31100667

Shut up pearlfaggot. Couples can have nothing in common and compliment very well.

As well, there are best friends who share almost everything in common... however, as a couple, they will never work.

>>31100603
>It should be sportash and sportserena.
Or you could stop being a cuck and only draw sportserena.

>>31100526
Chespin was the XY version of Oshawott who was the BW version of Piplup. It seems like Rowlet will have that role in SM.

>>31100746
>randomly falls off the backpack
Yes he is.

>>31100729
Oshawott and Piplup were clearly similar in the cameo and Chespin continued with their legacy. Rowlet only sleeps.

>>31099192
I actually didn't mind her, plus she had a cool team with Smoochum, Farfetch'd and Gothita. People are salty that she started stealing Millefeui's screentime with Tripokalons in XY&Z

>>31100775
Having the same role as Chespin and Oshawott means he is always being treated as a joke. Rowlet doesn't even have a similar personality like the others.

>>31100749

Not him, shitmonger.

>>31100729
Actually it seems like Ash himself is the jokemon this time. Rowlet is just chill and doesn't do much, more kinda like Togepi or Dedenne. The only difference being that it battles, although it's a jobber.

>>31100840
There's nothing wrong with being a jokemon anon.

Eh, Rowlet doesn't appear to be a big jerk unlike Oshawott or Chespin, so far none of the Pokémon that have appeared fit that.

>>31100896
There is a difference between a jokemon and one that only sleeps.

>>31100934

>>31100966
That's the joke.

>>31100927
Does the Rotomdex count as a jokemon?

>>31101022
It is a Rotomdex.

>>31100992
Watch the ED and check the exclusive Z-moves in the games

>>31101022
Probably.

>>31101060
Is it a Rotom? Is it a weird case like the Catholic God? (Father, Son, and Holy Ghost)

>>31101061
No, I mean your post had nothing do with the other post.

>>31101109
Yes it did
Ash will keep the birb, and get its exclusive Z-move

>>31101087
It claims is a Rotomdex like implying it's neither a pokemon or a dex.

>>31100448
Totodile was only ever in a single Gym battle, Whitney's Gym where it got flattened by Miltank.

Totodile's only major wins were in the Whirl Cup against a Kingdra, a few other pokemon, and I think it got 1 win in the Johto league but that's about it.

>>31101191
Fuck off, Scott.

>>31101145

How? The post you replied to was asking if Chespin was like Brock or Oshawott which has nothing to do with SM ending.

That's why stones exists, he can also ask James to kick Rowlet.

>>31100927
Never gets old.

>>31101191
Doesn't sound like a jobber, just an irrelevant pokemon.

>>31101343
I think two of the three exclusive Full-Evo Starter Z-moves will be shown off by 2 COTD's fully-evolved Alola starters.

>>31101343
It would make a nice souvenir at least.

>>31101425
>>31101456
This, it was definitely irrelevant compared to everybody else, plus for water Pokémon Ash could call on Squirtle when needed and Kingler was available when he needed more "brute force" from a water type.

>>31101483
Jesus fucking christ don't even suggest that.

>>31101456
Totodile was just a shitmon. It had like Scratch, Water Gun and Scary Face and only ever beat a Kingdra in a comedic, slap-stick kinda way. It's the OG jokemon in a way.

>>31101343
I wonder what is Ash going to do with the crystals when the season ends, they are usable in combat unlike gym badges.

>>31101456
Totodile was literally Ash's weakest pokemon in his lineup until Unova.

Bayleef and Cyndaquil at least had some wins and were decent battlers, even if they weren't particularly strong.

>>31101499
Why not?

>>31101521
Yeah and Cyndaquil at least came back and evolved.

I think overall his weakest mons are Totodile, Scraggy, Oshawott and Snivy.

They will be Incineroar and Decidueye. Pikachu will also get an exclusive crystal.

>>31101545
A real shame Scraggy never evolved. Usually most baby pokemon in the show evolve and become powerful, I really expected it to happen with Scraggy.

>>31101582
>evolve and become powerful
And then there's those that evolve and become major jobbers like Noivern

>>31101545
I'd say Snivy wasn't all that weak but Ash didn't really know how to make use of her.

>>31101590
Donphan also returned for the Sinnoh league and jobbed.

>>31101474
Lana's Popplio is very low-key as in personality so that makes it likely to evolve. Not sure if she' ll get Primarina but Brionne at least. I'm thinking Ash will get Incineroar and Decidueye could be a COTD or maybe Acerola.

That theme also includes Primarina anon...

>>31101590
Or Torterra who definitely became worse after evolving from Turtwig.

>>31101861
Ash received a kiss from a female companion for the first time in 20 years, and solidified Serena as Ash's endgame pairing. Of course it would still be talked about. It'll probably still be talked about a decade from now even if Serena never appears again.

I wonder how the original pitch went. Did all the other writers and animators act surprised when the director said he wanted Serena to kiss Ash in the last episode?

>>31101965
The new director Aya Matsui has been writing on the show for years though. She wrote a ton of AG and DP episodes and wrote the popular Serena crossdressing episode. Its not like she's not familiar with the anime.

Really? I'm not sure, when XY first started nobody could have predicted Amour would get promoted so heavily as it progressed. Its most likely the writers saw how popular it was with the fanbase and pushed it harder when they saw it was well received.

In the first year of XY Serena's blushes were short and subtle, they didn't start going overboard with her crush until the second year.

Did any writers change in-between XY and SM?

>>31101944
