The Synopsis for Ash's Final POKEMON Episode Has Been Released

Ash Ketchum has been a major staple in the Pokémon franchise over the past 25 years, but his time on the popular anime series is coming to an end. It’s pretty crazy that they are removing him and his loyal Pikachu from the show. The Pokémon anime will continue, but with two fresh new faces, Liko and Roy.

It was revealed: "Ash and Pikachu have had many encounters, many battles, and many exciting and memorable times. Every adventure is another step on the long path to becoming a Pokémon Master, a dream that never ends.”

Ash and Pikachu's final 11 episodes are coming soon and now we have a synopsis to share with you that teases what we can expect from the final episode. The following was shared by CB and it reveals that Ash will reunite with his oldest adversary, Gary Oak, who we first met in Indigo League. The synopsis reads:

When Ash and Pikachu return to Pallet Town, they reunite with Gary who asks Ash the question: How much closer to becoming the Pokemon Master are you now that you've become the Champion? Becoming a Pokemon Master has been Ash's dream ever since he set off on his journey with Pikachu. Will Ash be able to find the answer to this question?

For those of you who don’t remember, Gary was the character who cruised around in a red convertible with a bunch of weird cheerleaders. While Gary and Ash didn’t get along at first, they would eventually become friends.

Are you sad that Ash and Pikachu are leaving the show? Or do you think it’s time to move on and replace them with new characters?
