Pokémon: To Be A Pokémon Master is now available on Netflix in the US.
This mini-series is unique compared to the previous main series, Pokémon Journey, for two main reasons. First, the mini-series only had 12 episodes. Second, the focus of the mini-series is to introduce Ash Ketchum in his “ultimate adventure”. After 25 years of trying to become a “Pokemon Master” in a real-world setting, the show will try to answer what that means for Ash and how he moves on to the next part of his journey, no matter what. what that could be. These episodes have already been released in Japan (as Pokémon: Aim to Be a Pokémon Master), so viewers who don’t want spoilers should be careful what they look for about this mini-series.
Ash Ketchum’s Last Journey
What fans were eager to see when the “finale” was announced was the return of fan-favorite characters and Pokémon. Not only will Ash reconnect with some of the different Pokémon he caught in previous generations, but his OG friends and travel partners Brock and Misty will join him on a series of adventures. Final. Although this series marks the end of Ash’s “main adventure,” The Pokémon Company has made it clear that Ash could return in the future. They felt that after his success in the previous series, which culminated in him defeating Leon to become World Champion, it was time to move things on to the next story with new characters.
