It’s been a long journey, and I mean, a LONG journey. But it finally happened. Ash has finally become the Pokemon World Champion after 25 years. So, with nothing more for him left to do, he’s moving on and giving the spotlight to two new trainers.



With Ash leaving, the two new main characters, Riko and Roy, will be the star of the show starting some time in April 2023. It’s a really big step for Pokemon, and a bold choice. I feel like this change was needed and has been a long time coming, but it’s also a very impactful change. We’ve been following Ash and his buddies for so long, it’s going to be crazy following someone else after a 25 year journey. I’m excited to see how this affects the Pokemon series as a whole and how these new MCs turn out. Also can’t wait to see how the Pokemon fandom decides to lewd Riko and her sexy ass. I also really hope that Ash isn’t completely done with the anime. I hope his 10 year curse is finally lifted and we can see him return as an older Ash. Almost like how we see Red become a total badass.

Maybe this Ash is too cool.

Are you excited for the new Pokemon MCs? Do you think Ash will return as an adult? How do you think Ash leaving will affect the Pokemon anime? Tell us in the comments.
