Correct! Ash's story revolved around trying to be a Pokemon Master, and his story will end once he accomplishes this goal. Of course by then, the pokemon anime will possibly end.
I don't think so, because this feels like a story where its not about his goal, its about what he accomplished along the way. Plus its won't really make sense for one of the most iconic characters to end as a side character, that just isn't a good way to go out.
I personally think it’s also a way to bring him back in the future if the viewership drops too far below expectations for too long. Though realistically I can’t think of anything else ash can do to be a relevant main character after winning the world championship
I hope you can all understand why this video took so long to upload... IT'S OVER 20 MINUTES LONG 😆 my bad hahahaha (I also ran out of time to finish the video editing, so the 🤔thinking-Vulpix was on screen for too long for one segment lol. I hope it doesn't ruin the video!)
@@abdullahak2204 I knew this day was gonna eventually come but I didn't want to believe it, Unfortunately nothing last forever in this world😢, But doesn't mean that I'm not excited for the new Era of the show!!
So long Ash Ketchum, you changed a lot of people's lives and a childhood hero to all of use. I've started watching Ash since the Diamond and Pearl and that's how I got into the Pokémon universe. What an incredible journey for him from a beginner to the best trainer in the world. Thank you Ash Ketchum, we'll miss you.
Thank you for pushing through, despite everything that’s happened, and providing us with a passionate and enthusiastic review of these episodes as they come out, no matter what. It means everything, and I love hearing what you have to say! It keeps me hyped up for the series and makes it all feel a bit more like it did when I was a kid.
It finally ended, I watched the anime since Diamond and Pearl and here I am at 22 years old and it's sad to see it's over now. It's been quite a journey. I'll miss Ash and Pikachu, hoping that they'll show up again in the new anime some time.
@@leahschaffer7646 why do you want to see the old characters back again? maybe dawn and may or iris and cilan but serena got too much attention and her time in spotlight is long gone
A Pokemon Master isn't just a champion or someone who caught them all, but someone who will continue to meet and befriend new Pokemon. It feels like the baton isn't just being passed from Ash and Pikachu to the new series, but for us to continue on with Pokemon no matter how old we get.
befriending all is near impossible, i guess the real translation is being able to understand all pokemon and that one can befriend any pokemon. Hating this is the end (for now?)
I'm so gonna miss them. Seeing Pigeot again did it for me. Never thought my childhood would end, but here we are. #ThankyouAshandPikachu for... everything throughout the 25 years of these Pokémon adventures. Just.. Thank you. (Too emotional to write anything else right now) Never thought this day would ever come.
I agree, I would’ve loved to see a nice montage encapsulating 26 years of their adventures and showing all his companions and what they’re up to one final time.
Ash changed so much, his ideals of becoming Pokemon master really did mature from season 1 up until the final series. He went from *"Subete no Pokemon o getto suru!"* To *"Sekaijuu no Pokemon to tomodachi ni naru!"* The Sakura blossoms at end of the episode were also the symbolism of a new beginning and the coming of spring! And as the narrator always says.. *Satoshi to Pikachu no tabi wa.. mada mada tsuzuku!*
I’ve watched since day 1 when I was 7, 32 now and it’s still surreal to know they’re actually gone. Yes we can rewatch and relive the good times, but still knowing they’re gone as the MCs is so emotional lol. Thank you to ash and pikachu for making us enjoy our childhood for so long. They’re the GOATs
Yeah, I'm very glad to grow up in the nineties when many good franchise existed. Sadly only half of them still keep going to this very day, Pokemon especially. I've watched all of the pokemon movies from the first one in theaters to the home video released, the cartoon network premieres, and even Gen 5 being the first generation that I started watching the series in Japanese on Animecraazy (RIP that site), to now this and fakemon galore...It just goes to show that Pokemon is clearly the same age as I am nearly two months apart and the creator born nearly 10 days after my dad was born in 1965...Kinda of bizarre to see it in that way.
I was five years old when Pokémon first came on and I still will always love Pokémon for everything he thought us and I’m glade u didn’t get banned from RUclips ur my favorite Pokémon youtuber
Ty ash and pickachu we will never forget you. This final episode was a wonderful one but as always for this series and the fact it’s the final, it should have been so much more. Plus team rocket just getting back together out of nowhere is weird. Never the less I still enjoyed and overall even tho journeys wasn’t the best it still had some cool stuff in it and was able to bring a lot back and gave us an amazing final battle. Plus just thinking about how good the Pokemon series was as a whole made me emotional. The sentence ash says about how to become a Pokemon master is very well said. Overall enjoyed it, should have been much more but at this point I’m happy we got some good stuff from the final. Hope they keep making movie for ash or make a grand final ash movie to have a real big ending. The “next time a new beginning” I can’t wait for the new anime so far it looks hype and from what we have heard it could be good. Ty Pokeferlax you have really made Pokemon more enjoyable for me and your vids are just the best, can’t thank you enough for how happy I’ve been, being friends with you, joining the community and making new friends and getting inspired to do stuff despite my mental health. Ty, hope I can keep supporting you as much as I can till the end. 💫
In Team Rocket's case, I guess their minds are just so aligned. I don't even think they got demoted to cafeteria crew. I think all of them chose to work to cafeteria to avoid seeing the others in missions, but they all end up thinking and doing the same thing, then they hated doing the cafeteria thing, so, coincidentally, they all thought of the same thing, to stalk Pikachu, then they realized, they're all perfect for each other and thus they continue their top mission - to steal Pikachu - until the end of time. haha
This has been an amazing journey for me personally because Ash and Pikachu are what got me into pokemon and if it wasn't for them I would have never played my favorite video game franchise. They really mean a lot to me and i wish them the best on their journey and i hope they continue to inspire and bring other young people joy in the future as they look back before they were born and watch this kid from pallet town and his electric rodent and enjoy it as much as we did over all these years. It really has been an amazing ride over these years and I'm really going to miss them but I'm still looking forward to Pokemon Horizons with Liko, Roy and that adorable green cat.
Ash's and Pikachu's journey is finally over and I'm honestly shocked right now! It's been going on for so long that I can't believe it's happening😢 I'm going to miss them it was a blast 🤩
I never thought I will live to see the day Ash’s journey ends. I’ve known Ash and Pikachu for longer than I’ve known most people in my life and I think that says a lot. Maybe someday, somehow in some way we will se them again.
I got really emotional when the episode ended, cause I knew it was over, the end of Ash & Pikachu’s story but I reckon we’ll see them again since it didn’t feel very final, overall I loved the finale and really looking forward to horizons in April. 😊
It’s hard to believe the journey is over, Ash's time in the spotlight is over as he continues into the sunset. Even sadder though is that our time with our Team Rocket Trio is also over, maybe they’ll do something with the organisation still as they are still around but it wouldn’t be the same without Jessie, James and Meowth. I’m looking forward to seeing what they do with the new series, probably best outcome is that we get this series try and push itself up without new characters then throw a few in every now and then once we’re attached to these new kids.
I commend this man for getting back up again and keep going after he got hit back so hard willing to stay and walk on this thin ice for 3 months for us and still finding ways to present his video even after being forced to use distorted images and other form of images Always came for his voice never the images always will stay for his voice
Feels like yesterday Ash just beat Gary in the silver league conference now his story for the most part is over. Been watching pokemon since it first aired in America this really hit me right in the heart. For every beginning there is an end and for every end there is a new beginning.
I’m 34. Was roughly 10 when Ash let Pidgeot go to watch the Pidgey. Some of y’all my age may have an understanding on how significant this felt to see him finally return. I freaking jumped and screamed with joy like I was 10 again. So happy. Ash and Pikachu are probably the remaining link/constant I can grasp to since seeing that very first episode live as a 9 year old. Seeing the ending was really difficult, but all good things come to an end at some point. Looking forward to giving the new series a chance, but they better make it worth our while for sunsetting a legendary duo. That being said, I feel there was a lot left on the table in the last 11 episodes and in ash/pikachus story in general. Only a few may agree with me, but there are definitely other ways to utilize the dynamic duo in new plot points and future series. Just my feeling, but Hopefully this ending is going to be an extended “break” for the two. Once the Paldea region closes, maybe they can incorporate ash and pikachu again.
I feel good knowing that Ash and Pikachu will continue to have adventures and make new friends. Even though we don't get to see all those, I'm glad to know they're still happening. A bittersweet ending for the pair that got me through the hardest times of my life..... goodbye pikachu. goodbye ash. We will miss you
I was the weird kid who would act like a Pokémon on the playground Ash taught me to chase me dreams, never take no for an answer, and to love whole heartedly! Thanks for so many amazing years Thank you for the amazing coverage 💞
We know ash with pikachu is still on a journey and is out there somewhere catching and befriending more Pokémon’s and having more companions but we will not be getting to see it..Thanks Ash and pikachu for everything 😢
It does feel a bit lacking. I wish Ash could've met his dad, battled Giovanni, and confessed his love with Serena. Would have been so nice to have series end with a flash forward to Ash as an adult. Maybe he could've decided what a Pokemon master means then.
Battling Giovanni will not made much sence now, and even if ash and senera are together or even find he's dad that does not change anything, and you forgot what the creators said, taht ash will allways remain 10
I’m so glad Ash and Pikachu are gone. Anything else after becoming the worlds most powerful trainer would have been insulting. Champions deserve to go out on top. I’ll miss them, the iconic calls, the thunderbolt commands, that determined look on his face. It’s hard to see them go, but it’s better this way. 🔥 here’s to a 25 year legacy that will last for a century.
I'm SO glad Tracey got the be the final companion to return in Ash's story, it's such a huge W considering how much hatred he has received over the years! I'm glad he got to shut all the haters up, by being here at the very end! 😁 Primape though still breaks my heart! 💔 I wish he returned too!
For the last ever episode as Ash as the protagonist as was doing fine until I heard Pidgeot’s cry as he reappeared made me tear up so glad we got to see him one last time 😭
I'm more sad for Team Rocket. To me, they represent that feeling that comes with the adult moment of realizing you're not doing what you want out of life. That hit even harder when seeing how fillery the last few episodes and seasons were.
So sorry to hear about the channel, you reeled me back into Pokémon after not watching for many years. Your channel is awesome and I’ll support you anyway I can
This ending was a good one...a Pokèmon Master is something Ash made up, a never ending dream and a motivation for Ash to keep travelling for eternity so i actually love the fact that Ash's story ends with him going on another journey. I love how the new shoes represents Ash "passing the torch", the shoes have the same symbol from Ash's original hat and Liko's hair. Ash refuses the shoes at first, but when he clears his mind on what a Masters is he finally wears the shoes, meaning that "he's ready to pass the torch" . Loved it.
@@Wario1382 well, everyone has it's own opinion, i respect that. I always thought that "Pokèmon Master" wasn't a proper dream, no one (even champions) weren't aware of this status and Ash kept changing his mind about it (first becoming a champion was enough to be a master, then becoming a regional champion was the first step, then becoming world champion was the first step and finally this). Ash loves travelling, and no matter how much he improves he will always have this "never ending dream" on his mind to do even more and keep going.
Ash and Pikachu has been there my entire life hes the one that got me into pokemon hes the reason i am watching you and every poketuber ever and ash and pikachu wholesome moment will always cheer me up no matter how sad i am hes the reason i started playing pokemon games he always been there for me i didnt realize this until now i really really hope they give ash some referance in the new pokemon series. Farwell my friend thank you for everything.
In my school vr game ultimately ash now retired and there's some confirm bits of info first off mechtavius destroyer voice actor is confirmed to be Andrew Lang who did evox/venjix from power rangers beast Morphers and lord zed from Dino fury second ash voice actor change from ash to prince lukaon and finally team rainbow rocket is no longer in the game (in lore team rainbow rocket cafe committed several health code violation and they confirmed that mechtavius destroyer is 1 of zandars machines so team rainbow rocket was forced to shut down due to 2 account of regicide a attempted regicide and involuntary manslaughter but in code team rainbow rocket was removed because of that episode)
I love this episode so much. It had everything the fans wanted, and it’s a great finale to the anime’s end. I’m so hyped for the new pokemon horizons series and hope you’re doing well Pokeferlax!
It’s a challenge this day and age trying to overcome adversities, but I’m happy your not letting this get to you as a RUclipsr myself I appreciate your dedication to your passions makes me work harder as well.
On the subject of Ash and Pikachu inevitably returning for guest appearances, I think that they're saving having Primeape return for Horizons as the conditions required for it to evolve into Annihilape are only present in Paldea. Liko and Roy's adventures are going to be primarily based in Paldea; but when they do travel to other regions, there's a good chance that we'll catch up with Ash's past companions (sans May and Max unless they are recast) and see they're doing. I still remember when Ash let Pidgeot go (even if I watched that the other Original Series episodes as reruns or on DVD) and told it that he'd come back for him; so to have Pidgeot not only come back but also break the trend of having Pokémon Ash released returning only for cameos and guest appearances by actually having it rejoin Ash permanently was a perfect way to cap off Ash's time as the main character.
I was 5 years old when it first aired in the US. It’s so wild seeing the show go this long and… I’ll miss Ash and I didn’t like the last 11 episodes as I would like because I feel like they could done better saying goodbye
Ash and pikachu were there with me all my childhood and life , there retirement news came at the same time when I got to know that I’ll be a dad, I guess the whole generation passed, thank you Ash and pikachu for making my childhood so memorable , you will always be a special part of my life and I’ll always tell your story to my kids , hope we’ll watch you soon
It’s sad to see Ash go after 25 years of watching him on-screen on his ventures of wonder. It is just emotional for me and probably everyone to see him go. 😢
I'm 24 and started watching Pokémon 17 years ago, And I just gotta say it's been a hell of ride and thanks for everything Ash and Pikachu for the awesome childhood!!
so it's over the last episode I think everyone really likes it I haven't seen the episode but you Pokeferlax as you explained the episode in the video I already know this is an awesome episode I hope horizons will be as good as this
Farewell and thank you Ash and Pikachu for bringing joy and happiness to my childhood I will miss you both so much and all your wonderful friends, family and all the Pokémon you have met and captured as well as my favorite villains Jessie, James, Meowth and Wobbuffet of the infamous Team Rocket but will always cherish your incredible journey you have shared with us over the last 26 years so best wishes until we meet again and here’s to welcoming our new heroes Liko and Roy in the new series later next month Gotta Catch ‘em all 😢👍❤️
Miss Ash Ketchum and Pikachu and all with his Pokemon the 1 c chart and once he didn't called release remember when Ash always say he always love to respect other Pokemons and love nature I love theirs but he's always be in the heat he's when he is way too best character than any other character man I got a man going to miss him him Gary all gym Leaders when he faced it all gym Leaders when he faced it all the companion Pokemon I choose you although his his all his scratches all his skills he doesn't give up he would get back up he show us hot tough to show any trailer hot tub he video and her tough day all he I don't blame him either he's talk to you it is happy he become a person he is I am so proud of you as used Yukon as one of these characters Goku and Naruto aang you just won the great characters just like the rest of the characters and farewell you achieved your goal become a Pokemon Master legend a legend never give up legends never die voice say that you are my biggest big big fan fairway Manor fairway Pikachu ash 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊 and going to miss Richie and his and his Pikachu sparky characters 🎉 know which I know he I know he is cheerful you to your own your own he might not be your tried to pay him but he is one your one your companions but they lost I believe he did check for you and sparky the Pikachu Chevy Ash Ash 🎉🎉🎉Pikachu
Ask that a person Natalie and all his other people and not just only Lucario and Greninja have a person that all his Pokemons has a personality not a name all his all his Pokemon personality I can't do this can't help it I like actress
i still have a tear falling out everytime I rewatch the ending, especially when ash leaves the his old shoes and puts the new ones. ash and pikachu have been there for me since 10, and while I was confused what the heck they were doing, but once I hit 13, i understood them at a low point of my life. and I am so proud of ash and pikachu of all they have done. and while they are gone, they never are far away from my heart. i understand the logic of the shoes..a new journey starts..and new moment starts..we leave the old behind, and now, we will go on our own, because our journey continues.
Ash will never truly have an ending until they actually have ash age into an adult. I used to relate to ash when I was younger, but I quickly lost that connection when he remained a kid. I get why they kept him a kid, but it's hard to like a character that is young forever... also hard to have ash as a role model when any character development he obtained the past season vanishes the next seaso *cough* XYZ to sun and moon *cough*
The end of my childhood heroes is here. It really makes me feel some kind of way. Even though their time has ended, a new generation and new legacy shall begin. In the meantime, thank you Ash and Pikachu for helping me become the man I am today. :")
There are NO WORDS that can describe the SHEER *JOY* that I felt seeing Pidgeot return after waiting for over a decade! Farewell, Ash and Pikachu. Thank you for making my childhood great! You’re the whole reason that I got into the series in the first place!
Started watching Pokémon all the way back in 1998, it was such a big part of my childhood. I always imagined the finale would have Ho-oh and all his companions in it honestly, either celebrating him becoming champion with a party or challenging him to a battle. It wasn’t what I expected and I still wish we could have seen his old companions one last time but this was still a fun episode to watch. Can’t believe it’s really over.
Did you hear about Liko is in a Boarding School in the Kanto Region somewhere which was confirmed in the First Episode Summary of Pokémon Horizons Series but the First Episode Title is unknown!?
Hey pokeferlax, I'm not sure what you'll think of my opinion but to me aim to be a pokemon master just felt like "the series of missed opportunities" like they went the very safe route as you mentioned. I personally feel like if they made it maybe 15-26 episodes and focused more of ash's current and released pokemon, ash's past companions, ash's past rivals, the masters 8 contestants, pokemon from the movies, more of the regions like kalos with the negative roots, unanswered questions like ash's father or does ash love anyone or did Lillie ever find her dad or did bonnie ever reunite with squishy or if serena became kalos queen. And some more important stuff then it would've felt like a proper send off to me personally
I watched the series from x and y to alola , had to get Netflix since so was on and off journeys. Can't watch the latest episodes but happy ash continues to his very own journey.
I know how u feel ferlax I grew up watching the pokemon anime as well 😅 Ash and Pikachu are a big part of my childhood so sad that they are now gone 😢😢😢. Your Channel is amazing as always Ferlax 😊
Does it not bother anyone else that it didn't include ho-oh flying under the rainbow. I mean if they wanted to end it the way it started, they missed a key detail that would have so fufiling.
I was very happy to see Tracy and his Pokèmon it saved the whole absence of Brock and Misty at the beginning. And of course Pidgeot was the moment I actually cried. 💘
Wow, hearing it from someone who loves the series as much I do is different than from someone reviewing it objectively (but we still didn’t see *Primeape!)* … I knew it was coming, but I’m not ready to say goodbye yet 😢😢😢 Thanks for the review Pokéferlax and go hug your furbabies all 💙🐱💙

Welp there goes my childhood.
Your analysis of all these episodes are very informational if that makes sense
The episode just left us on a cliff hanger. I don't think this is the end of Ash and Pikachu, its just the end of Ash being the main character.
Correct! Ash's story revolved around trying to be a Pokemon Master, and his story will end once he accomplishes this goal. Of course by then, the pokemon anime will possibly end.
CAPTAIN PIKACHU
I don't think so, because this feels like a story where its not about his goal, its about what he accomplished along the way. Plus its won't really make sense for one of the most iconic characters to end as a side character, that just isn't a good way to go out.
But I do wish we can see him again :'(
I personally think it’s also a way to bring him back in the future if the viewership drops too far below expectations for too long. Though realistically I can’t think of anything else ash can do to be a relevant main character after winning the world championship

A Pokemon Master isn't just a champion or someone who caught them all, but someone who will continue to meet and befriend new Pokemon. It feels like the baton isn't just being passed from Ash and Pikachu to the new series, but for us to continue on with Pokemon no matter how old we get.
Very well said
that's so true!!!!
And Ash will continue forever...no matter how much he improves he won't stop with this "never ending" goal on his mind . i actually like that.
someone who can probably command all pokemon without catching it.
like a pokemon ranger without doing the circles xD
befriending all is near impossible, i guess the real translation is being able to understand all pokemon and that one can befriend any pokemon.
Hating this is the end (for now?)
Absolutely crushed 💔 can’t believe they’re gone. So grateful they existed and brought us all together 😭❤️

I agree, I would’ve loved to see a nice montage encapsulating 26 years of their adventures and showing all his companions and what they’re up to one final time.
I consider the intro to be that montage.
Ash changed so much, his ideals of becoming Pokemon master really did mature from season 1 up until the final series. He went from *"Subete no Pokemon o getto suru!"* To *"Sekaijuu no Pokemon to tomodachi ni naru!"* The Sakura blossoms at end of the episode were also the symbolism of a new beginning and the coming of spring! And as the narrator always says.. *Satoshi to Pikachu no tabi wa.. mada mada tsuzuku!*

Ash's and Pikachu's journey is finally over and I'm honestly shocked right now! It's been going on for so long that I can't believe it's happening😢 I'm going to miss them it was a blast 🤩
I never thought I will live to see the day Ash’s journey ends. I’ve known Ash and Pikachu for longer than I’ve known most people in my life and I think that says a lot. Maybe someday, somehow in some way we will se them again.
After many years it finally happened. Thank you Ash and Pikachu for an amazing childhood
I got really emotional when the episode ended, cause I knew it was over, the end of Ash & Pikachu’s story but I reckon we’ll see them again since it didn’t feel very final, overall I loved the finale and really looking forward to horizons in April. 😊
It’s hard to believe the journey is over, Ash's time in the spotlight is over as he continues into the sunset. Even sadder though is that our time with our Team Rocket Trio is also over, maybe they’ll do something with the organisation still as they are still around but it wouldn’t be the same without Jessie, James and Meowth. I’m looking forward to seeing what they do with the new series, probably best outcome is that we get this series try and push itself up without new characters then throw a few in every now and then once we’re attached to these new kids.
Thank you Ash and Pikachu for wonderful memories ❤ and goodbye😢
Now we have to keep their memories alive, even if they're no longer on our screens every week! 😊
@@Pokeferlax yes exactly 😊
I commend this man for getting back up again and keep going after he got hit back so hard
willing to stay and walk on this thin ice for 3 months for us
and still finding ways to present his video even after being forced to use distorted images and other form of images
Always came for his voice never the images
always will stay for his voice
Feels like yesterday Ash just beat Gary in the silver league conference now his story for the most part is over. Been watching pokemon since it first aired in America this really hit me right in the heart. For every beginning there is an end and for every end there is a new beginning.
This is the end. What a journey this has been.
The greatest journey there ever was! 🔥
@@Pokeferlax Time to open the doors to a new beginning.
I’m 34. Was roughly 10 when Ash let Pidgeot go to watch the Pidgey.
Some of y’all my age may have an understanding on how significant this felt to see him finally return. I freaking jumped and screamed with joy like I was 10 again. So happy.
Ash and Pikachu are probably the remaining link/constant I can grasp to since seeing that very first episode live as a 9 year old. Seeing the ending was really difficult, but all good things come to an end at some point. Looking forward to giving the new series a chance, but they better make it worth our while for sunsetting a legendary duo.
That being said, I feel there was a lot left on the table in the last 11 episodes and in ash/pikachus story in general. Only a few may agree with me, but there are definitely other ways to utilize the dynamic duo in new plot points and future series. Just my feeling, but Hopefully this ending is going to be an extended “break” for the two. Once the Paldea region closes, maybe they can incorporate ash and pikachu again.
I feel good knowing that Ash and Pikachu will continue to have adventures and make new friends. Even though we don't get to see all those, I'm glad to know they're still happening. A bittersweet ending for the pair that got me through the hardest times of my life..... goodbye pikachu. goodbye ash. We will miss you
That's what I was thinking. At least there's comfort in knowing they're still going strong even if we don't get to see...
I predicted that when I heard Ash was leaving the anime.
After 25 years we have to say goodbye to Ash and Pikachu. They will be missed, but I also welcome the new generation.
I was the weird kid who would act like a Pokémon on the playground
Ash taught me to chase me dreams, never take no for an answer, and to love whole heartedly!
Thanks for so many amazing years
Thank you for the amazing coverage 💞
I'm glad the channel is still going
Thank you so much for supporting me 😄
We know ash with pikachu is still on a journey and is out there somewhere catching and befriending more Pokémon’s and having more companions but we will not be getting to see it..Thanks Ash and pikachu for everything 😢
It does feel a bit lacking. I wish Ash could've met his dad, battled Giovanni, and confessed his love with Serena. Would have been so nice to have series end with a flash forward to Ash as an adult. Maybe he could've decided what a Pokemon master means then.
Battling Giovanni will not made much sence now, and even if ash and senera are together or even find he's dad that does not change anything, and you forgot what the creators said, taht ash will allways remain 10
Still can't believe my childhood ended the day I turned 18.
I’m so glad Ash and Pikachu are gone. Anything else after becoming the worlds most powerful trainer would have been insulting.
Champions deserve to go out on top.
I’ll miss them, the iconic calls, the thunderbolt commands, that determined look on his face. It’s hard to see them go, but it’s better this way.
🔥 here’s to a 25 year legacy that will last for a century.
something i think might happen is that there could be a mini-series with us seeing ash's journey from this episode
From one vulpix to another I hope your channel gets back how it was before
To be fair, Ash has been struck by electricity many many times over. He'd probably take a thunderstorm like it's nothing. 🤣
Ash his own type is probably electric, so it is not very effective.
Love that you love the show as much as you do brought back the child in me that’s used to wake up early to watch new episodes every Saturday.
I am glad that Tracey Sketch came back. My boi deserved at least a bit more screen time then he got.. but RIP Primape. Never got to see him again :(
I'm SO glad Tracey got the be the final companion to return in Ash's story, it's such a huge W considering how much hatred he has received over the years! I'm glad he got to shut all the haters up, by being here at the very end! 😁 Primape though still breaks my heart! 💔 I wish he returned too!
For the last ever episode as Ash as the protagonist as was doing fine until I heard Pidgeot’s cry as he reappeared made me tear up so glad we got to see him one last time 😭
All I can say is
Thank you for everything, and I'll miss them so much. I honestly don't know what else to say oh my lord 😂😭
I'm more sad for Team Rocket. To me, they represent that feeling that comes with the adult moment of realizing you're not doing what you want out of life. That hit even harder when seeing how fillery the last few episodes and seasons were.
“What about butterfree,” he ain’t comin back is he.
It's not a goodbye, it's more of a see ya later
I have watched this series since I was a kid. I am 29 and I watched every single season. Thank you Ash and Pikachu for the 26 years of joy.
The ending wasn’t just about nostalgia. It was about him continuing to keep doing what he’s always done. It made sense to me..
Goodbye, Ash and Pikachu. Don't stay away too long. You too, Team Rocket. ^_^
So sorry to hear about the channel, you reeled me back into Pokémon after not watching for many years. Your channel is awesome and I’ll support you anyway I can
This ending was a good one...a Pokèmon Master is something Ash made up, a never ending dream and a motivation for Ash to keep travelling for eternity so i actually love the fact that Ash's story ends with him going on another journey. I love how the new shoes represents Ash "passing the torch", the shoes have the same symbol from Ash's original hat and Liko's hair. Ash refuses the shoes at first, but when he clears his mind on what a Masters is he finally wears the shoes, meaning that "he's ready to pass the torch" . Loved it.
@@Wario1382 well, everyone has it's own opinion, i respect that. I always thought that "Pokèmon Master" wasn't a proper dream, no one (even champions) weren't aware of this status and Ash kept changing his mind about it (first becoming a champion was enough to be a master, then becoming a regional champion was the first step, then becoming world champion was the first step and finally this). Ash loves travelling, and no matter how much he improves he will always have this "never ending dream" on his mind to do even more and keep going.
Ash and Pikachu has been there my entire life hes the one that got me into pokemon hes the reason i am watching you and every poketuber ever and ash and pikachu wholesome moment will always cheer me up no matter how sad i am hes the reason i started playing pokemon games he always been there for me i didnt realize this until now i really really hope they give ash some referance in the new pokemon series. Farwell my friend thank you for everything.
I hate that after 26 years, still haven't met Ash's dad...
In my school vr game ultimately ash now retired and there's some confirm bits of info first off mechtavius destroyer voice actor is confirmed to be Andrew Lang who did evox/venjix from power rangers beast Morphers and lord zed from Dino fury second ash voice actor change from ash to prince lukaon and finally team rainbow rocket is no longer in the game (in lore team rainbow rocket cafe committed several health code violation and they confirmed that mechtavius destroyer is 1 of zandars machines so team rainbow rocket was forced to shut down due to 2 account of regicide a attempted regicide and involuntary manslaughter but in code team rainbow rocket was removed because of that episode)
Ash reunited with Pidgeot is all I ever wanted since I was 10. Now I’m 33. I can die happy.
I love this episode so much. It had everything the fans wanted, and it’s a great finale to the anime’s end. I’m so hyped for the new pokemon horizons series and hope you’re doing well Pokeferlax!
I am sad my favourite series on this channel is what if Ash was a water grass or fire type champion and now its deleted entirely
It’s a challenge this day and age trying to overcome adversities, but I’m happy your not letting this get to you as a RUclipsr myself I appreciate your dedication to your passions makes me work harder as well.
Hey man, would love to see a video review covering the entire Pocket Monsters: Aim to Be a Pokémon Master.
Horizons is a great name for the next anime. You can never reach the horizon, implying that you have to keep striving for your dreams.
On the subject of Ash and Pikachu inevitably returning for guest appearances, I think that they're saving having Primeape return for Horizons as the conditions required for it to evolve into Annihilape are only present in Paldea. Liko and Roy's adventures are going to be primarily based in Paldea; but when they do travel to other regions, there's a good chance that we'll catch up with Ash's past companions (sans May and Max unless they are recast) and see they're doing. I still remember when Ash let Pidgeot go (even if I watched that the other Original Series episodes as reruns or on DVD) and told it that he'd come back for him; so to have Pidgeot not only come back but also break the trend of having Pokémon Ash released returning only for cameos and guest appearances by actually having it rejoin Ash permanently was a perfect way to cap off Ash's time as the main character.
I was 5 years old when it first aired in the US. It’s so wild seeing the show go this long and… I’ll miss Ash and I didn’t like the last 11 episodes as I would like because I feel like they could done better saying goodbye
Ash and pikachu were there with me all my childhood and life , there retirement news came at the same time when I got to know that I’ll be a dad, I guess the whole generation passed, thank you Ash and pikachu for making my childhood so memorable , you will always be a special part of my life and I’ll always tell your story to my kids , hope we’ll watch you soon
Man im gonna miss ash but, I do look forward to the new anime it looks pretty good, you will be missed ash.
It’s sad to see Ash go after 25 years of watching him on-screen on his ventures of wonder. It is just emotional for me and probably everyone to see him go. 😢
I'm 24 and started watching Pokémon 17 years ago, And I just gotta say it's been a hell of ride and thanks for everything Ash and Pikachu for the awesome childhood!!
so it's over
the last episode
I think everyone really likes it
I haven't seen the episode
but you Pokeferlax as you explained the episode in the video
I already know this is an awesome episode
I hope horizons will be as good as this
You’re an awesome RUclipsr! Thank you for the content and this great community!
We must never forgot ash you’ve allways been my way to experience to other people opinions of ash
Farewell and thank you Ash and Pikachu for bringing joy and happiness to my childhood I will miss you both so much and all your wonderful friends, family and all the Pokémon you have met and captured as well as my favorite villains Jessie, James, Meowth and Wobbuffet of the infamous Team Rocket but will always cherish your incredible journey you have shared with us over the last 26 years so best wishes until we meet again and here’s to welcoming our new heroes Liko and Roy in the new series later next month Gotta Catch ‘em all 😢👍❤️
I feel the same bro

Ask that a person Natalie and all his other people and not just only Lucario and Greninja have a person that all his Pokemons has a personality not a name all his all his Pokemon personality I can't do this can't help it I like actress
I miss all his Pokemon I got Miss all Ash's Pokemon
They can’t do ash like that. He’s the whole reason why pokèmon blew up 😭😢
Don’t worry bankruptcies is coming towards Pokemon and already it will be a flop season trust me
@@teamvipershayer8360 oh ok!
It’s been a long run 26 years with ash and pikachu and the rest now it’s time for a new era of pokemon and I hope you get all your old videos back
i still have a tear falling out everytime I rewatch the ending, especially when ash leaves the his old shoes and puts the new ones. ash and pikachu have been there for me since 10, and while I was confused what the heck they were doing, but once I hit 13, i understood them at a low point of my life. and I am so proud of ash and pikachu of all they have done. and while they are gone, they never are far away from my heart.
i understand the logic of the shoes..a new journey starts..and new moment starts..we leave the old behind, and now, we will go on our own, because our journey continues.
Ash will never truly have an ending until they actually have ash age into an adult. I used to relate to ash when I was younger, but I quickly lost that connection when he remained a kid. I get why they kept him a kid, but it's hard to like a character that is young forever... also hard to have ash as a role model when any character development he obtained the past season vanishes the next seaso *cough* XYZ to sun and moon *cough*
You the GOAT for bringing us these breakdowns weekly! I got so emotional over Pidgeot’s return
Best wishes, until we meet again 😌
Welp im about to be 26. Thats it for me on the pokemon anime
The end of my childhood heroes is here. It really makes me feel some kind of way. Even though their time has ended, a new generation and new legacy shall begin. In the meantime, thank you Ash and Pikachu for helping me become the man I am today. :")
Where Will you be able to watch the Premier for the new series?
There are NO WORDS that can describe the SHEER *JOY* that I felt seeing Pidgeot return after waiting for over a decade! Farewell, Ash and Pikachu. Thank you for making my childhood great! You’re the whole reason that I got into the series in the first place!
Still have my old Pokemon VHS tapes from my childhood. Truly an end to an era
I can't believe he's gone just like that.
I'm 37 and have followed the anime since childhood... It was especially emotional for me..
Holy fuck pidgeot
Started watching Pokémon all the way back in 1998, it was such a big part of my childhood.
I always imagined the finale would have Ho-oh and all his companions in it honestly, either celebrating him becoming champion with a party or challenging him to a battle. It wasn’t what I expected and I still wish we could have seen his old companions one last time but this was still a fun episode to watch. Can’t believe it’s really over.
Gary was the one making sense in the beninging till the end , thats why he is the best rival
Did you hear about Liko is in a Boarding School in the Kanto Region somewhere which was confirmed in the First Episode Summary of Pokémon Horizons Series but the First Episode Title is unknown!?
Thanks for making Ash's final episodes so exciting! Your voice will always be synonymous with this time in my book!
Thank you for everything Ash and Pikachu, thank you for making my childhood :')
Hey pokeferlax, I'm not sure what you'll think of my opinion but to me aim to be a pokemon master just felt like "the series of missed opportunities" like they went the very safe route as you mentioned. I personally feel like if they made it maybe 15-26 episodes and focused more of ash's current and released pokemon, ash's past companions, ash's past rivals, the masters 8 contestants, pokemon from the movies, more of the regions like kalos with the negative roots, unanswered questions like ash's father or does ash love anyone or did Lillie ever find her dad or did bonnie ever reunite with squishy or if serena became kalos queen. And some more important stuff then it would've felt like a proper send off to me personally
I watched the series from x and y to alola , had to get Netflix since so was on and off journeys. Can't watch the latest episodes but happy ash continues to his very own journey.
In my opinion the new protagonists are never going to be able to replace ash
I know how u feel ferlax I grew up watching the pokemon anime as well 😅 Ash and Pikachu are a big part of my childhood so sad that they are now gone 😢😢😢.
Your Channel is amazing as always Ferlax 😊
Does it not bother anyone else that it didn't include ho-oh flying under the rainbow. I mean if they wanted to end it the way it started, they missed a key detail that would have so fufiling.
I was very happy to see Tracy and his Pokèmon it saved the whole absence of Brock and Misty at the beginning. And of course Pidgeot was the moment I actually cried. 💘
Wow, hearing it from someone who loves the series as much I do is different than from someone reviewing it objectively (but we still didn’t see *Primeape!)* … I knew it was coming, but I’m not ready to say goodbye yet 😢😢😢
Thanks for the review Pokéferlax and go hug your furbabies all 💙🐱💙
I'm glad you're back at making content. I'm glad to follow you sir!!
