Depends which "bitch" you're referring to. If the one on the right, SOON. If the one on the left, NEVER.

So will Brock and Misty return for SM42 and 43 or for a few more episodes?

>wake up
>check twitter
>first thing I see is that Brock and Misty are returning

Alright guys, speculation time.

Since Ash is returning to Kanto, 1 Pokemon decides to stoaway in his backpack or he chooses to bring along with him when he goes to return to Alola. Hard Mode: The Pokemon he brings with him isn't fully evolved, giving it a chance to evolve throughout the rest of Sun and Moon. Who do you choose?

Another question, Brock and Misty have Megas. Do you think we could be getting Ashs long awaited Mega Arc where he obtains a Mega Stone/Key Stone?

Do you think Gary or Tracy will appear?

Will we, for the first time ever, get an extended look at Pallet Town for some comfy SoL adventures featuring the original trio?

Will we get to see some of his other Pokemon fighting? I want to see Infernape, Totodile, Bayleef, Gible and even more fight in with the current battle animation.

Will Misty have evolved Psyduck?

>>33405070
Left. I kinda miss her, she was cute

Didn't Misty's VA recently say in an interview that, if Misty could tell Ash one thing, it's that she wants to travel with him again?

She could have possibly been foreshadowing that Misty might not leave after the episodes, since they were undoubtedly recording by that point.

>"This story will air Sept. 14 and 21"
They literally tell you how long it's gonna be there. It's one of SM's "extracurricular lessons".

>>33405083
It's best not to get your hopes up.

SM is the best now, right?

>>33405083
That was a mistranslation, but yeah, she would have known about these episodes at that time.

And she has a name, you faggot.

>>33405092
That's pretty much the motto of the anime at this point.

>>33405083
That interview was from the end of BW/early XY iirc.

Flying to the new thread. Hoping we get more subs soon. Hopefully M19 is next.

So what do you think of the news of Brock and Misty returning even if it's for a few episodes? What I wonder what's the project about that Ash has to return to Kanto, I also wonder if we'll get to see what's going on Alola during that. Maybe Ash will ask about Tracey and he'll be missing again, heh.

Thread song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-yIiu69850

>>33405096
actually the franchise as a whole

>>33405099
We don't care about you.

>>33405094
No. It means that the only way SM can get interesting is by getting Kasumi and Takeshi back for a couple of episodes of Kanto pandering.

>>33405077
>Will we get to see some of his other Pokemon fighting? I want to see Infernape, Totodile, Bayleef, Gible and even more fight in with the current battle animation.
They said Kanto Pokémon though.

>>33405097
No, it was from that movie anniversary book that came out last month. But as mentioned, the quote was mistranslated. I don't remember what it originally said, but it was not "I want to travel with you again".

>>33405077
>Pokemon he brings to Alola
Totodile or Gible, both would fit easily with SM's comedy and artstyle and would add a lot of fun to the show.

>Ash Mega Arc
I want to believe.

>Gary and Tracy
Gary I hope so, Tracy can suck a dick but has a better chance at appearing then Gary.

>>33405089
Couldn't one of those dates get two episodes?

>>33405100
Oh yeah I forgot about gen 7

>>33405077
>Who do you choose?
TOTODILE

>>33405085
>His friends and Pokémon from the Kanto region appear!!
>He'll meet the friends and Pokémon he competed against in the past, too!
Why differentiate them?

>>33405083
KASUMI GETTO DAZE!

>>33405103
>20th Anniversary doesn't exist now
>Implying they won't be doing th same with other companions.

Kasumi and Takeshi are just the first.

>>33405099
Eh, the fact that Matsui is making it an "extracurricular class" makes it feel like a total waste. If you're going to bring back those two characters for the 20th anniversary, make sure it's for something of big importance.

>every series shows a girl from the previous series
>they brought back Misty instead of Serena

Really makes you think

>>33405099
Man, I watched M19 years ago when Bruthais was still alive.

>>33404999
>Your wish has been granted...

No it didn't

My wish is for Ash to beat Alain and Mega charizard X to win a freaking official league and have a powerful pokemon that can defeat all Digidestined Digimon.

>>33405128
This pattern got shattered thanks to no one wanting Iris back.

Reminder that Ash's most effective move against Mega Steelix is fucking Ember.

>>33405128
They didn't bring back Iris either, but brought back Cilan.

>>33405098
Just call them Ash x (character name) then or use the Japanese names. The names used now were literally just made up by Bulbapedo.

>>33405127
Nothing in the anime has any importance, lol

>>33405134
No, Yajima literally said it was just an oversight.

>>33405083
lmao

>>33405116
The first line is the headline for the second. They're not meant to say different things.

>>33405129
>watching shitsubs

>>33405134
>implying Cilan

>>33405077
Tododile, he needs a water type also it would be the only starter on his team that doesn't become a hideous abomination. Though I suppose Corphish could fit aswell.

>>33405139
Do you think Iris will come back eventually, or is it too late? What about Serena?

Ash... EXPLAIN

>>33405077
Of course Totodile or Gible.
Totodile would be good for the GSC release on VC (maybe with a new mega?); Gible would be awesome.

>>33405144
>Bruthais
>shit

>>33405108
If they don't have a single scene where Ash sees all of his Pokemon I'll be disappointed. My Dream Pokemon Master was one of if not BW's best episode, but lacked impact since only a small amount of Ashs Oak'd mons appeared until the final scene with the photo.

I want to see my old friends again, even if for a moment.

>>33405126
Oshawott fucking sucks. Ashs worst Water Pokemon by miles.

Totodile was fun and energetic while also being competant at battles. It's also one of my favorite Pokemon of Ashs.

>>33405128
>Bringing back Serena when XY hasn't even been over for a year yet
>Bringing back Serena when she said the next time she meets Ash she's going to be an even better woman for him
Nigga, don't be stupid.

Only Ash's Kanto Pokemon are going to appear. You're not going to see Hawlucha, Talonflame, Noivern, or any post-Kanto Pokemon.

>>33405134
Yeah, but now that we have our cameo it means nor Serena nor the lemons are going to make one

>>33405085

Hmm, The scan never said that Ash is battling both Brock and Misty.
The scan only shown pic of Ash's Pikachu battling Misty's Gyarados.

Are we sure that Ash battling both Brock and Misty?

XYZ looks like shit now in comparison with SM

I wonder why...

>>33405155
We're returning to the Original Saga which extends into Johto. We could see his Johto Pokemon since we usually get to see the Bayleef glomping Ash every other region or so.

>shilling megas in the Alola season

Do the executives ever set their priorities straight, or is it just a "they don't care until the league happens" kind of deal?

Well, with the current 4 Pokémon he has yes, although he could use one of his old Pokémon, however it might be an opportunity to shill Lycanroc.

>>33405164
>shilling

>>33405161
I'm only an extremely casual watcher of the anime but SM looks better to me. At least it's not pretending to be some huge epic narrative only to drop nearly everything introduced once the next games come out. Comfy slice of life is better for Pokemon if they don't want to ever change the protagonist or make him grow

>33405154
>Bringing back Serena when she said the next time she meets Ash she's going to be an even better woman for him

That means never then

>>33405155
Johto is Kanto 2 though

>>33405161

S/M series still sucks, two special episode does not change anything.
Instate, it make me feel even worst that even Ash's sidekick allow to megevolve pokemon but not Ash.

>>33405172
>At least it's not pretending to be some huge epic narrative only to drop nearly everything introduced once the next games come out.
>implying that won't be the case with SM either

The anime production is a fucking mess

>>33405175
Serena will probably come back for the XY remakes if her voice actress is still around (RIP May)

>>33405178
>inbefore Mega Glalie merchandise is brought back

>>33405164
Probably has something to do with USUM.
I think we all realize that anime will become a massive trainwreck thanks to the new games.

>>33405170
Never once has a mega-mon showed up in the SM anime or even mentioned because of priorities for Alolan forms, the starters, and Z-moves. Bring them back just because they could is an odd move from a commercializing perspective.

>>33405184
Why? At least it's not cramped and abusive like the production of DBSuper (8 months vs 1 month per episode is a huge difference)

>>33405182
I wasn't implying that, I think you misunderstood what I was saying. Basically I mean that nobody is really expecting or care that SM will have a big impact on the franchise as a whole since it's all episodic filler anyway

>Ash returns to Pallet and marry Misty
>Brock travels to Alola and its the new protagonist

please, this is the best end game.

>>33405150
Translate it from moonspeak, and I might be able to explain.

>>33405085
is alola the only region so boring that ash needs to go to an old one midway just to drum up interest

>>33405135
The 2 battles are going to be horrible, unless he uses old Pokemon.

>Tfw they used a shit animation for Lycanroc's Continental Crush in a Mimikyu Episode only to use a good one in a battle against Brock's Mega Steelix ( i hope)

>>33405192

Again, May can have a new VA.
Even Ash and Pikachu can have new VA once their VA retires.

>>33405198
it's just for the kids at the pokemon skuru

>>33405198
>everything now is a commericial.

They brought them back for you, my ungrateful autist. It's 20th aniiversary, you know. Megas are here because twhy not?

>>33405205
I don't recall this happening in previous regions, except in like AG, but that was near the end when he had nothing left to do in Hoenn.

>>33405195
>>inbefore Mega Glalie merchandise is brought back

Why Glalie when he has a perfect Charizard and Heracross?

>>33405207
kek
yeah you wish

Ash/Serena might be in danger now.

When is the next issue of the magazine coming out?

>>33405219
I know anon, I'm kidding about that old Mega Glalie merchandise from long ago that was shown for comparison with new merchandise.

>>33405208
She could, I remember saying that when someone pointed out that May didn't come back because of her VA but they called me retarded

>>33405153
Yes. I remember they managed to translate "I have two badges" "That's one more than Satoshi" into "I am 10 years old" "That's the same age as Satoshi" back in the first Bel episode in BW.

They're guess subs in the absolute purest sense of the word.

>>33405227
Nah, unless she broke up with Tracey.

>>33405233
Probably because you are.

>>33405227

Brock and Misty join Ash to go to Alola.
Misty comes to Alola for a vacation in a tropical Island and meet many new water type pokemon while Brock wanted to study natural medicine in Alola (And see the new Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny that Ash's mention )

>>33405227
Serena is for Tierno or shota now.

>>33405227
Unless Misty did the same thing Sora did in Tri (where she can't decide between Taichi and Yamato), amour is still safe.

Some of you are getting your hopes up way too much. Don't forget that, even with the cameos, this still is SM.

>>33405261

Nah, Serena probably marry Clemont since XY series focus more time on showing Serena to be a perfect Sister-in-law for Bonnie.

>>33405252
And Lillie will travel with Ash to kanto after turning into her Z-form :v

>>33405227
I think if anything Serena's chances of coming back increased by 200%. This is like final recognition that they're willing to desperately bring back old stuff to drum up interest in their series, and Serena would definitely do that.

I don't think anyone would deny Serena is definitely coming back, hell even Iris has a chance of coming back. With the way the Pokemon franchise is with constantly rehashing each generation characters will always come back even if it doesn't mean anything for the story. And by characters I mean main characters not characters-of-the-day obviously

I bet that, Bayleef, totodile,Quilava and will follow Ash back to Alola. They'll alll evolve into Alola Meganium. Screenshot this

I might have been one of the shitposters you were talking about. I said earlier I don't think Ash will end up with Serena (or anyone for that matter) but she'll most likely come back eventually

Anything bad can happen to Ash.

They can make Ash lose to a total newbie, they can make Ash lose the league to an incompetent trainer , they can kill Ash and obliterate his body

Wait a sec , all of this did happened!

How much does the producer hates Ash? Even Nobita gets better treatment then this!

It happened to Bayleef, even if it was very brief.

>>33405506
Most minor characters are voiced by main cast members. There's nothing special about that.

The only thing I'm curious is why are they using the same outfit of the OS?

>>33405508
May's Mega Blaziken when?

>>33405513
Os fans (who this is pandering to) couldn't tell it was Brock and misty other wise.

because this is a very hamfisted REMEMBER THESE kind of thing.

>>33405508
>Giving Brook and Misty Megas sounds suspicious...

Its disrespectful and insulting to Ash fans.

>>33405513
Most likely because that's what you'll see in screenshots showing "the old days".

Let's try a little game.
Give each of the following a cameo in SM. You can only use the "extracurricular lesson" excuse once:

Will TR follow Ash back to Kanto or are they staying in Melemele? I could see them attempting to do that but Bewear taking them back to Alola.

>>33405544
I guess it will all depend on whether this cameo is actually USUM-related, or just genwun pandering. Smart money says it's the latter, tho.

>>33405541
Brock is not a doctor, not yet,

Still very curious to see a 15 year old studying to become a doctor.

>>33405550
They didn't appear for the entire Akala arc, so I don't believe for a second they'll be in this.

>>33405544

It will still be disrespectful unless the new development is Ash receiving a Z-powered ring with a Keystone attach to it.

It wasn't really ditched though, it was exchanged for Kingler so he can compete in the whirl cup thing, he got it back after that 2 episode event.

>>33405553
If it was just genwun pandering they wouldn't have Megas.

>>33405553
It's not genwun pandering, genwunners don't watch the anime. It's just anniversary celebration.

>>33405561
Kingler > Bayleef
IMO

I hope Ash is gonna use his old mons for the battles and not just Pikachu and my mom's orange dog.

>>33405566
They probably got them to level the field of play, seeing as Ash's got Z-moves and how the fuck would Misty and Brock get a Z-bracelet if not at Alola? So, they give them megas to not be overpowered by the new mechanic.

This. They're not making these episodes so some irrelevant 30 year olds will watch two episodes for the first time in 15 years, write some Facebook post about how these Mega evolutions are raping their childhood, then never touch the franchise again until the next Misty cameo. There's nothing to gain from that.

If they were going to put him in these episodes, they'd DEFINITELY have advertised that.

>>33405606
Maybe the arc is longer than two episodes and it's the "further development".

>>33405600
Should've told me that 15 years ago.

>>33405579
How the hell Brock and Misty got Mega Ring without going to Kalos ?
Furthermore, Z-move is far far far inferior to Megevolution.
Megevolution can be used for the entire battle but Z-move just affect one turn unless the move misses and countered.

Z-move is stupid, it is nowhere near as good as Megevolution.

>>33405612
well, i hope it's not filler after that anyway

>>33405612
I think the "further developments" just means news about the episodes after Ash's visit to Kanto unless they're actually going to give a came to all previous companions.

Honestly, if you're a Serenafag, why would you want her to come back as a shoe-horned cameo? Wouldn't you want to keep the way she went out the way it is and not soil it needlessly? A pointless cameo would do nothing to build up her character and do a lot more to undermine it.

-someone who's not even any kind of shippingfag

>>33405629

>>33405623
>I think the "further developments" just means news about the episodes after Ash's visit to Kanto

It's this.

Gen 7 as a whole is filled with Kanto pandering, we aren't going to see any other old companions. This is a one-time thing.

>>33405617
Shota got his keystone in Hoenn from Steven, we don't know where he got the Sceptilite, probably Steven got all the stuff in Hoenn.

Maybe they went to Kalos?

Pathetic.

You fuckers also memed a Lillie/Mallow keepaway ship into existence.

Stop pretending that use miss Serena

I am actually scared of this cameo because the director and writer might turn Brock and Misty into dull characters.

>>33405712
I miss her.

>>33405704
To answer your question, one part of me would like a Serena cameo as soon as possible, but I'd mostly prefer if it weren't in SM.

>>33405300

>>33405720
>one part of me would like a Serena cameo as soon as possible,

It's not fucking happening you autist, the kiss means that Serena can never return. If they were planning for her to return at any point, "kissu" would have never happened.

If she returns, Amour is officially dead because they'll act like it never happened.

Serena never appearing again would be the best possible outcome for Amourfags.

While her appearing again would be the best possible outcome for the anti-Amour crowd, because it means the ship is dead.

>>33405736
You seem upset, anon, kalm down

>>33405736
Fuck off.

stop acting like this will save SM

SM has been BW tier shit since the beginning and having 2 episodes with old characters will not change that.

Even if these were great episodes, we have to deal with the fact the rest of the season is horrible

Even then, these could be the worst episodes ever.

--- The first official league in Alola has being announced and all S/M character planning to compete in it.

Which one do you prefer ?

>>33405773
Yeah, it's fine. I was just looking at it from a literary perspective more than a Pokémon one. Like, if you read a novel/watched a movie that had a character leave in a generally satisfying conclusion (I guess; again, haven't watched XY, yet), making a sequel novel/movie and shoe-horning them in while flushing away the character development that was previously built feels like a waste. But, hey, what do I know?

In general, people that like a character tend to be happy to just see more of them. It's just that. It has nothing to do with anything specific about that character.
But again, nobody have been particularly clamoring for Serena to return in these threads right now.

Why the fuck is everyone saying "lol Serena btfo" "pfftt, take that amourdumbs"?

>>33405823
Because spamming the same "reaction" over and over can cause newfags to think they're actually genuinely reacting to something.

>>33405815

Megas require a special bond, which isn't all that compatible with the idea of him dropping his team off at Oak every gen.

>>33405915
He doesn't, that's been made pretty clear in the previous Pallet episodes. Especially the BW one.

>>33405906

That's a good thing though, we don't need to be wasting time in Kanto when everyone except Lillie in Alola has barely done anything and needs more development.

With the way how the anime goes, the only two final pairings that are almost a certainty are Ash/Pikachu and Ash/Delia.

>>33405972

Objectively wrong.

Lillie has more episodes, screentime, and character development than anyone else, and she's the only character aside from Ash whose episodes are plot-important.

>>33405917
That's why he got the special snowflake froggo and (unlikely, but still) Pikachu got a last minute power up that put it toe with toe against pseudolegendaries and garbage-tier megas like Mega Lucario (besides, Pikachu still hasn't got the 10.000.000 boruto Z move).
