Ash Is Going to Alola in POKEMON Series Based on New Game
As if it wasn't an automatic assumption, Ash Ketchum is conveniently taking his adventure right into the premise for the new Pokemon game Pokemon Sun and Moon. Anime News Network says Ash is going to the island of Alola, learning to dance, and discovering new Pokemon and old Pokemon with new forms.
So is Ash the Marco Polo of the Pokemon world, or is he just that dumb? How is it this kid was allowed to set off on a journey at age 11 and be so ignorant of the world?! I get that it's a TV show, but can we get a canon explanation or something from the showrunners? Ash not knowing about Pokemon on an island is like me at the age of 26 seeing a Kangaroo and being like HOLY S***!
Maybe he'll actually win a Pokemon League this season. I would expect this series to come to the U.S. sometime mid to late 2017.
