A few things to note. The reason why Ash is called Satoshi is because the Japanese version has different names for the characters, moves, Pokemon and locations and the subtitles are based off the Japanese names not the English ones. For example, the Pokemon Aceburn is actually called Cinderace in the English version and Lizardon is Charizard. The characters who watch Ash's are all of the friends that he's traveled with throughout the series and the Pokemon that appear when Pikachu collapses are all of the Pokemon Ash has caught throughout the entires series, divided by the region where they were caught in. The reason Pikachu and Cinderace grew gigantic is due to special mechanic called Gigantamax. The battle between Ash and Leon is a full battle, which is six vs six (the maximum number of Pokemon a trainer can have on hand). Ash uses Pikachu, Gengar, Sirfetch't, Lucario, Dracovish and Draconite while Leon uses Cinderace, Inteleon, Mr. Rime, Dragapult, Rillaboom and Charizard. Sonia (the girl battling Leon in his flashback) is not his sister. This is not the last episode of the Pokemon anime (it's not even that last episode of this series).
You're right, but it is the biggest accomplishment in Ash's life to this point, and it brings a conclusion to what the first episode was building towards. Ash said he wanted to be the best, and in this episode he accomplished that, since Ash's story is ended after this series, this is as good as the last episode from his perspective, especially since he seems to be a casual.
@briansme8589 And the reason for the video is to react and see if he would care about pokemon, i never saw the anime exept for a few episodes here and there. But seeing this makes me want to watch it. Probably a better choice than One Piece anyway
For context all the pokemon that were cheering for Pikachu when he blacked out were all the pokemon that Ash/Satoshi caught and released over the years of the show. So it was a little homage to the overall series. Made me so emotional when I saw it for the first time
The feeling of Pokemon is great. People could call me a kid that i watch Pokemon and play its games at 19 years old, but its just so nostalgic. My first anime
Games are cool. Okay, Purple and Violent arent super good when youre objectiv. But the anime? Bro, first seasons are really good. last seasons are totally crap.
The contrast between the beginning and end is something I'll never forget. Pikachu at first was just trolling Ash at the beginning and now he won Ash the championship, they're friendship will never be beaten.
What I also absolutely love is that the anime estabalished that Ash can lose, in the semi finals, quarter finals, even the finals. So we never knew if he was winning the world finals until he won
In English dub his name is Ash. In the original Japanese it's Satoshi- named after the creator of Pokémon Satoshi Tajiri. I've been watching this show since it first aired and I still watch the latest episodes now that I'm in my thirties. It's great
He’s called Satoshi because that’s his name in Japan. They changed it to Ash in the English version (along with pretty much everyone’s names to make them sound less Japanese).
It's not the last episode, but definitely the most significant battle in Ash/Satoshi's journey. Starting January, there will be 11 episode series to conclude his journey. He'll be replaced by a new character in a new PokéMon series. -The the significant animation quality is specific episode, they saved budget for it 😅 But of course the general animation improved over time and there's also high budget episodes along the way. -English and Japanese names aren't the same. For the games, and the anime.
@@justinandrew1799 The final battle where he become the World Champion is, Pocket Monster 2018/PokéMon Journeys Ep. 129-132 But the whole contest started in like… ep.115 with some fillers and recaps so they have time budget to make the final battle have good animation. Edit: Oh yeah, he got nominated by battles with other contestants and ranking up through out the series but not really important… (I just don't know the exact episodes 😅)
@@Reymax164 Cool thanks! I wondered because honestly I haven’t watched much of Pokémon since black and white! But I gotta see what’s new and how the journeys gonna end too!
The last episode was the ultimate reward to everyone that’s watched from the beginning. Watching all of the series is the only way to appreciate it. I’d love to see u react to the whole series, every series
Neel there’s 9 seasons in total, each of which showcases 9 diff journeys. And each are like 100+ episodes long so if you plan on watching, it’s gonna take you a long WHILE
You know Neel, I feel like saying thank you to you. You watching and reacting to all those shows that some of us grew up on like you said, and still being able to relate on this level with shows you've never seen just because of your similar experiences like with DB for instance. These videos are great because they're so genuine and you're not afraid in sharing the more deep or emotional thoughts, which I know that not everyone might enjoy it the same way, but to some these little things are what makes all the difference! Thank you for sharing these moments, cause even if a little, I know that this makes the day better for some of us watching. Keep up the amazing work! Getting people to revel in either nostalgia or new great discoveries for others! So again, thank you!
This is not the last episode at all. Ash still has 11 episodes before he leaves but the anime will still continue after that. You should watch the new series that will follow a new protagonist. It comes out in april.
The Pokemon Franchise, and Ash both mean a huge amount to many people around the world. Me included. I watched every episode week in, week out, as they released, right from the very first one that you watched in this video. 1223 episodes and 25 years later, I’m still watching it and playing the games. Has it been worth it? All the ups and downs that have come with the games and anime? Absolutely. I learnt so much, and it taught me so many life lessons I would have otherwise missed out on had it not been for Pokemon.
Ash's name in Japan is Satoshi, named after Satoshi Tajiri. His name was changed in English into Ash Ketchum, and since that was the name he was called throughout the original seasons, they didn't change it back when the show moved to other studios.
23 years old...but watching 1st episode just now... Gave me goosebumps and obviously the last episode 🔥🔥🔥.... animation crispyyyyy.... U can watch the serious u will just get to know about ASH(satoshi in japanese) more...i m down to watching every episode and dropping a like👍🏿
y know i had started watching thish show when i was 3 years old and now im 13 i remeber the days back then no study pressure comin from school and watching pokemon with snacks that time a trainer batlle also gave so much hype and buddy i damn recommend you this show there are different regions youll enjoy and damn there are movies and episodes that wil make you cry.. along these journey you will have joy and haha some frustation when team rocket or some shit arises but we all know it is the greatest show ever
The song in the "last episode" was the japanese opening of the very first season... one of the few ever openings to be better in english than the original song... still the japanese version was really cool too...
Deadass missed watching Pokemon during summer break till the last episode 😭 Cause I usually start watching from XY but then I started to watch from the beginning and it was the best decision of my life
I love the fact the anime hinted at Generation 2, aka Gold/Silver/Crystal, way before those games were even in development. They did the same thing for a Pokemon named Togepi, who they find as an egg.
At least react to season 1 cause it has aged really well with the humor and emotional moments too regardless if you watched it as a kid. I think it would be a huge W on the channel
this isn't the final episode but it's THE episode to watch if you ever do a video like this. afterwards, it's about the other protagonist of this season, go. at the very end, ash and Go go their separate ways, but this episode is essentially the biggest step towards the realization of ash's dream. The TRUE final episode doesnt come out until the end of the 11 episode finale that comes out in january
The route Ash took to get there wasn't an easy one, honestly it was a miserable one. But the reward Ash found in the end of this path couldn't be obtained by any other character.
No it wasn’t He worked hard and earned it And it was a fun and wholesome adventure along that way Only cynical people find it miserable It’s the most one of a kind and unique experience out of any anime protagonist Agree with the last part
English and Japanese dub has their own way of saying their names. For example, Ash in the English dub is just Ash Ketchum and the Japanese dub is called Satoshi. There are multiple names that are different in this show
I've seen a lot of the other pokemon series, haven't seen this one yet so when all the other pokemon that ash has gotten through the years started cheering pikachu on that shit had me tearing up. Gotta watch this now
They just announced that their making 11 more episodes with ash and Pikachu to conclude there journey. It's expected to come out either mid January or at the end of January.
Yea man and in Pokemon they say whoever sees ho -oh is the luckiest of trainer and the thing ash saw it during his start , makes him destined to be the master
Bro I love your positive attitude and reactions since it’s so new to you. Not gonna lie your reactions made me think of you like a little kid and how one day I hope that my kids have the same reaction.
You don't need go know anything about the anime to play the games! The anime is always based on the games and a new series will always launch after a game is released. But you should totally watch more. XY & XYZ are in my opinion the best seasons
We are the same I loved xy and xyz growing up only because of Amour shipping at the time but I watched it for fun and for ash- greninja but ash losing that one battle to Alan was really not cool but the worst thing to come out of this anime was the release of ash- greninja why satisfies why but they reunited in journeys which was nice
Everyone (Including myself) That was on Ash's Journey for 25+ years, seeing that final episode where he wins made us all cry since we've been with him all these years.
The reason why he is called satoshi is because his name is different in japanese and english. For japan he is satoshi And probably the rest of the world it is ash
the last episode you watched was in mandarin so it wasnt lizardon it was charizard and the baby version is charmander and ash was named satoshi in mandarin
Also the pokemon community would help you learn how to play. Most livestreams that the pokemon community watch are either tournaments, online battling, nuzlockes and first time play throughs. People like teaching and watching people grow as trainers themselves
Pokemons my first anime. I stopped atching it around 17 coz i grew ourt of it. But i returned to just see my boy ash finally reach his dream and i choked up a bit. Im 22 now . Pikachu seeing most of the pokemon ash had gotten over the years made me so happy.
I'd really love to see your reactions on some of the cool moments in this show, it's so sad that its ending but I would love to relive it with your reactions!
In consecutive series, Ash has become a champion. In Sun and Moon, Ash became the first champion of the Alola Region. In Journeys, he defeated Leon to become the new Pokémon World Champion in a battle that literally came to a head between his Pikachu and Leon's Charizard. What made the moment so much more endearing, is that all of his travel companions, his mother, Professor Oak and all of his other Pokémon were watching worldwide as he battled. Congratulations Ash Ketchum on becoming a three-time Pokémon champion. (Orange League, Alola League and World Coronation Series)
Pokémon is dubbed by a dubbing studio that gives new names to everyone and everything, to 'westernize' it. Satoshi is the name of the protagonist from the Pokémon anime, named after the director of the Pokémon games. He's just called Ash in the dub, because of how they handle naming. Funnily enough, Pikachu is one of the few exceptions to the naming convention of the dubbing studio. Not only does that species of Pokémon keep its Japanese name, but the Japanese voice clips are kept in, completely unaltered. The games are the original source material of the Pokémon series. The anime is an adaptation of the games, though it's been a loose adaptation since Season 6. Satoshi/Ash was based on the player character from the first set, or generation of Pokémon games, and the player character from the second generation of games doesn't appear in the anime except for a special episode with a standalone story that doesn't involve Satoshi at all. Starting with Season 6, which is the first of three seasons adapting the third generation of games, one of the choices of player character from the current generation's adaptation joins Satoshi in his travels as a new trainer, with Satoshi serving a sort of mentor role alongside his own journey. The exception to that is the adaptation of generation 5. Generation 5 of the games was designed to be a soft reboot of the games, though it didn't pan out that way in the end because that direction wasn't appreciated by the consumers. However, going along with the idea of a soft reboot, the anime tried to soft reboot Satoshi and Pikachu in the generation 5 anime, with very similar results. It was rough. They gave Satoshi his experience back about halfway through the generation 5 part of the anime. Just something to be aware of. Also the generation 7 adaptation is rather scaled down in scope compared to the ones before it, being less of a continuous journey and more of a series of excursions with everyone returning to a sort of home location afterward. I didn't care for that one, though more accurately there was a single character I found to be exceedingly obnoxious, and that character ruined it for me because they just would not shut up. Again, just something to be aware of.
Neel Desai, the ENTIRE SERIES consists of MULTIPLE generations with each generation having about 200 episodes. Then, there are also movies for each generation as well. Currently, there are OVER 20 seasons of Pokémon.
The English dub of the last episode hits even harder. Because the music that plays when Pikachu gets back up for that final charge. is the original Pokémon opening theme.
PLEASE DO MORE POKEMON REACTIONS!! Would be cool to seeing you play the games too 👀 Edit: The Continue at the end is because the other main character of that season, Goh, have some episodes left, but this is the last episode of the Master Tournment Arc! And they call him Satoshi because his name in Japanese is Satoshi, they call him Ash in the Dub!
Bro you literally made me tear up , to see this again along with the first episode really takes me back . I started watching Pokémon when I was 3 with my grandpa and sometimes I wish he was alive to see this . If you do react to the show I would say start with either Diamond and Pearl or with XY/XYZ. This as far as we know it is it for our boy Ash and he will be retiring after this but in January we will get an 11 episode special that will be a proper send off to our boy ash . 😢
Dude, the Pokemon community is the nicest one ever. If that’s the only reason you’ve not played the games you’re missing out, lol. Every game is a good game for beginners, they start by explaining what pokemon are and everything. It’s tedious for pokemon veterans, but makes it easy for any newbies just joining in for the first time.
I love your reaction!! Satoshi is his Japanese (original) name for Ash. You can see here the difference of 25 years of the anime, Ash and Pikachu... they went through a lot to get to that place! You should watch the whole serie
- "this song is amazing" from that last battle, well it's the original theme song that in English version replaced with "Gotta Catch 'Em All". The name is [Aim to be a Pokemon Master] or めざせポケモンマスター (mezase Pokemon Master)
Soo did not watched the video yet. I know a lot of people do these videos but i really love the idea of you doing them! Getting your view of a series in just one video just sounds amazing. Hope you do more of them and i say that before watching. 💯😂
Hey, I’m a big Pokémon fan and I have watched every episode, this was the first time I ever saw this episode and it was very fun to watch it through this video! I would totally love it if you watched the rest of the series! Also ps in the last episode, the guy ash is facing has never lost a battle, and all the other Pokémon that cheer pikachu on are Ash’s other Pokémon
Been following Pokemon since the beginning of the anime and yes Ash/Satoshi becoming the World Champion was so worth the 25 year journey. There's a total of 8 anime sagas/"Generations" with each consisting of at least 3 seasons and explores a different region every time. It's not the "Last" episode of the anime because it was already announced that there will be a Generation 9 anime next year. But it IS the finale for Ash & Pikachu as the protagonists. Go get into it! It's going to take a while, but it's a lovable fandom and the Pokemon community is great.
In the English version of the show, his name is Ash, in the original Japanese version, his name is Satoshi. They named him after the the creator of the the games.
I would definitely recommend watching the series. It’s very long though, over 1200+ episodes. If you want, you can skip all the filler episodes which will cut that number down by a lot.
@Yo Its Zen no there aren’t It’s all part of the adventure you ignored the rest of my statement Fillers are non canon Every moment every experience is important to ash’s growth as a trainer and as a person
@madness arcade , what he means with filler are the episodes with side stories. I consider filler all the episodes where aah doesn’t catch a Pokémon, one of them evolves, learns a new move or is about a gym/league. You could skip all the other episodes, besides maybe some of the arcs and still follow the story. A lot let time consuming and still worth it to watch.
Pokemon is a beloved franchise that has a compelling world, exciting battles, and heartwarming relationships between trainers and their Pokemon. It is a must-watch for anyone who enjoys action, adventure, and heartwarming stories.
A few things to note.
The reason why Ash is called Satoshi is because the Japanese version has different names for the characters, moves, Pokemon and locations and the subtitles are based off the Japanese names not the English ones.
For example, the Pokemon Aceburn is actually called Cinderace in the English version and Lizardon is Charizard.
The characters who watch Ash's are all of the friends that he's traveled with throughout the series and the Pokemon that appear when Pikachu collapses are all of the Pokemon Ash has caught throughout the entires series, divided by the region where they were caught in.
The reason Pikachu and Cinderace grew gigantic is due to special mechanic called Gigantamax.
The battle between Ash and Leon is a full battle, which is six vs six (the maximum number of Pokemon a trainer can have on hand). Ash uses Pikachu, Gengar, Sirfetch't, Lucario, Dracovish and Draconite while Leon uses Cinderace, Inteleon, Mr. Rime, Dragapult, Rillaboom and Charizard.
Sonia (the girl battling Leon in his flashback) is not his sister.
This is not the last episode of the Pokemon anime (it's not even that last episode of this series).

the bird flying across the sky in the first episode was a ho-oh
Yea man and in Pokemon they say whoever sees ho -oh is the luckiest of trainer and the thing ash saw it during his start , makes him destined to be the master
Bro I love your positive attitude and reactions since it’s so new to you. Not gonna lie your reactions made me think of you like a little kid and how one day I hope that my kids have the same reaction.
For a kind knowledge, that guy who fought ash in the finals was undefeated till now. Ash is the first person who ever defeated leon and his lizardon
You don't need go know anything about the anime to play the games! The anime is always based on the games and a new series will always launch after a game is released. But you should totally watch more. XY & XYZ are in my opinion the best seasons
We are the same I loved xy and xyz growing up only because of Amour shipping at the time but I watched it for fun and for ash- greninja but ash losing that one battle to Alan was really not cool but the worst thing to come out of this anime was the release of ash- greninja why satisfies why but they reunited in journeys which was nice
I mean satoshi
Everyone (Including myself) That was on Ash's Journey for 25+ years, seeing that final episode where he wins made us all cry since we've been with him all these years.
The reason why he is called satoshi is because his name is different in japanese and english.
For japan he is satoshi
And probably the rest of the world it is ash
26:44 the song that's played here is the original pokemon opening from the 1 season. The og opening
yep, watched countless youtube reactions and it still brings tears in my eyes.
Suggestion: watch the peak of pokemon (XY and XY & Z), specifically Alain vs ash, which is literally shonen
the last episode you watched was in mandarin so it wasnt lizardon it was charizard and the baby version is charmander and ash was named satoshi in mandarin
Ash was a real one for choosing Squirtle 1st
I'm tryna see you do at least one full season.💯
Also the pokemon community would help you learn how to play. Most livestreams that the pokemon community watch are either tournaments, online battling, nuzlockes and first time play throughs. People like teaching and watching people grow as trainers themselves
This is the first video of yours I have watched.. And i couldn't skip a single second
I'd be down for the full series! Can't wait for the next few years!!!
Pokemons my first anime. I stopped atching it around 17 coz i grew ourt of it. But i returned to just see my boy ash finally reach his dream and i choked up a bit. Im 22 now . Pikachu seeing most of the pokemon ash had gotten over the years made me so happy.
Pokemon XY and Pokemon XYZ (maybe Pokemon Sun and Moon too)
Best Pokemon series ever made in its 25 years journey.
I never noticed that during that final clash they played the opening theme from the very first season back in the 90s.
i can only speak for myself but i would watch and like every pokémon video you upload, love this series
Please please please do the entire pokemon.... I cried while watching the 1st episode with you and I'm ready to cry some more !
I'd really love to see your reactions on some of the cool moments in this show, it's so sad that its ending but I would love to relive it with your reactions!
The first episode really brought tears to my eyes
My guy finished the whole Pokemon journey in like an hour also watching the first episode brought tears omg what a journey
Watch it Neel ! We'll watch with ya !
In consecutive series, Ash has become a champion. In Sun and Moon, Ash became the first champion of the Alola Region. In Journeys, he defeated Leon to become the new Pokémon World Champion in a battle that literally came to a head between his Pikachu and Leon's Charizard. What made the moment so much more endearing, is that all of his travel companions, his mother, Professor Oak and all of his other Pokémon were watching worldwide as he battled. Congratulations Ash Ketchum on becoming a three-time Pokémon champion. (Orange League, Alola League and World Coronation Series)
Pokémon is dubbed by a dubbing studio that gives new names to everyone and everything, to 'westernize' it. Satoshi is the name of the protagonist from the Pokémon anime, named after the director of the Pokémon games. He's just called Ash in the dub, because of how they handle naming. Funnily enough, Pikachu is one of the few exceptions to the naming convention of the dubbing studio. Not only does that species of Pokémon keep its Japanese name, but the Japanese voice clips are kept in, completely unaltered.
The games are the original source material of the Pokémon series. The anime is an adaptation of the games, though it's been a loose adaptation since Season 6. Satoshi/Ash was based on the player character from the first set, or generation of Pokémon games, and the player character from the second generation of games doesn't appear in the anime except for a special episode with a standalone story that doesn't involve Satoshi at all. Starting with Season 6, which is the first of three seasons adapting the third generation of games, one of the choices of player character from the current generation's adaptation joins Satoshi in his travels as a new trainer, with Satoshi serving a sort of mentor role alongside his own journey.
The exception to that is the adaptation of generation 5. Generation 5 of the games was designed to be a soft reboot of the games, though it didn't pan out that way in the end because that direction wasn't appreciated by the consumers. However, going along with the idea of a soft reboot, the anime tried to soft reboot Satoshi and Pikachu in the generation 5 anime, with very similar results. It was rough. They gave Satoshi his experience back about halfway through the generation 5 part of the anime. Just something to be aware of. Also the generation 7 adaptation is rather scaled down in scope compared to the ones before it, being less of a continuous journey and more of a series of excursions with everyone returning to a sort of home location afterward. I didn't care for that one, though more accurately there was a single character I found to be exceedingly obnoxious, and that character ruined it for me because they just would not shut up. Again, just something to be aware of.
The anime actually had multiple delays to make that episode look that good
Neel Desai, the ENTIRE SERIES consists of MULTIPLE generations with each generation having about 200 episodes. Then, there are also movies for each generation as well. Currently, there are OVER 20 seasons of Pokémon.
I’d love to see you react to it! I love watching people get to know this series! It will be a fun journey :D
The English dub of the last episode hits even harder.
Because the music that plays when Pikachu gets back up for that final charge. is the original Pokémon opening theme.
I just Found out why Pikachu was So Stubborn to Ash
It’s Because, *Ash was not High enough Level to Control a Pokémon that has evolved*
PLEASE DO MORE POKEMON REACTIONS!! Would be cool to seeing you play the games too 👀
Edit: The Continue at the end is because the other main character of that season, Goh, have some episodes left, but this is the last episode of the Master Tournment Arc! And they call him Satoshi because his name in Japanese is Satoshi, they call him Ash in the Dub!
Hearing the original theme song kick back in after so many years electrifies my heart 😆
Bro you literally made me tear up , to see this again along with the first episode really takes me back . I started watching Pokémon when I was 3 with my grandpa and sometimes I wish he was alive to see this . If you do react to the show I would say start with either Diamond and Pearl or with XY/XYZ. This as far as we know it is it for our boy Ash and he will be retiring after this but in January we will get an 11 episode special that will be a proper send off to our boy ash . 😢
Dude, the Pokemon community is the nicest one ever. If that’s the only reason you’ve not played the games you’re missing out, lol. Every game is a good game for beginners, they start by explaining what pokemon are and everything. It’s tedious for pokemon veterans, but makes it easy for any newbies just joining in for the first time.
I love your reaction!!
Satoshi is his Japanese (original) name for Ash.
You can see here the difference of 25 years of the anime, Ash and Pikachu... they went through a lot to get to that place! You should watch the whole serie
- "this song is amazing" from that last battle, well it's the original theme song that in English version replaced with "Gotta Catch 'Em All". The name is [Aim to be a Pokemon Master] or めざせポケモンマスター (mezase Pokemon Master)
They call him Satoshi because you’re watching the Japanese version. The American version isn’t out yet
Fun fact, Pikachu Japanese voice actress is the same as Chopper from One Piece!!
There's 11 episodes left but it release at January 2023
You should watch top 10 greatest pokemon battles. Really satisfying to watch
Bro u gotta do Pokemon reactions it's too good to miss out😭😭
Soo did not watched the video yet. I know a lot of people do these videos but i really love the idea of you doing them! Getting your view of a series in just one video just sounds amazing. Hope you do more of them and i say that before watching. 💯😂
there will be eleven more episode that will conclude the story of ash and after that the new mc will get entroduced
The song that was playing during the battle in the second one was the first opening for the Japanese dub.
Honestly, out of everything in the world, pokemon gives the most nostalgia😢
Hey, I’m a big Pokémon fan and I have watched every episode, this was the first time I ever saw this episode and it was very fun to watch it through this video! I would totally love it if you watched the rest of the series!
Also ps in the last episode, the guy ash is facing has never lost a battle, and all the other Pokémon that cheer pikachu on are Ash’s other Pokémon
Yeah please do more Pokemon reaction video, We will really enjoy that especially from season 1
I'm 100% down for Pokemon Reactions and if you do it, I'm tuning in for every episode
Been following Pokemon since the beginning of the anime and yes Ash/Satoshi becoming the World Champion was so worth the 25 year journey.
There's a total of 8 anime sagas/"Generations" with each consisting of at least 3 seasons and explores a different region every time.
It's not the "Last" episode of the anime because it was already announced that there will be a Generation 9 anime next year. But it IS the finale for Ash & Pikachu as the protagonists.
Go get into it! It's going to take a while, but it's a lovable fandom and the Pokemon community is great.
In the English version of the show, his name is Ash, in the original Japanese version, his name is Satoshi. They named him after the the creator of the the games.
Please react to the whole series!!!
You won’t regret it
We’re do u watch all ultimate journey episodes I watch on Netflix but it didn’t show all of em
XY and XYZ is imo best season of Pokemon so i cant wait to see this in your chanel
You could totally play the game man, it doesn’t connect to the show or anything at all, the show is just an adaptation of the game’s story
I would definitely recommend watching the series. It’s very long though, over 1200+ episodes. If you want, you can skip all the filler episodes which will cut that number down by a lot.
There is no filler it’s all part of the adventure all those experiences made ash the person he is today
There’s no filler
@Yo Its Zen no there aren’t
It’s all part of the adventure you ignored the rest of my statement
Fillers are non canon
Every moment every experience is important to ash’s growth as a trainer and as a person
@Yo Its Zen you ignored the rest of that I just said
Read man
@madness arcade , what he means with filler are the episodes with side stories. I consider filler all the episodes where aah doesn’t catch a Pokémon, one of them evolves, learns a new move or is about a gym/league. You could skip all the other episodes, besides maybe some of the arcs and still follow the story. A lot let time consuming and still worth it to watch.
Pokemon is a beloved franchise that has a compelling world, exciting battles, and heartwarming relationships between trainers and their Pokemon. It is a must-watch for anyone who enjoys action, adventure, and heartwarming stories.
