> XY is canon compliant with BW > BW is canon compliant with the rest of the sagas > Ash-Greninja and the Flare arc were a major part of Pokémon XY's plot, which means it's way too different to be in the same continuity as JN > JN directly contradicts XY, which means it is set in a different continuity > SM, a saga that smoothly flows into JN, is also most likely not canon compliant with the rest of the sagas > since Pokémon doesn't do major retcons like this, OS -> XY is an alternate continuity, i.e. an AU > SM is the saga where they introduce not only ultra wormholes, but also alternate continuities where alternate Ashes have their separate adventures In practice, this means: > Ash never wins a Championship in the original continuity > Ash won't become the world Champion But in exchange: > Ash's first big win won't be a shitty 'special needs' league with 3v3 final matches and absolutely no reserve usage > Ash didn't win the biggest tournament in his life just using a bunch of strong Pokémon he never trained on-screen > Dawn wasn't left in stasis, and her last appearance is her living as Cynthia's close friend in her holiday mansion > Infernape's last appearance didn't end with it jobbing against a flaming chicken > thanks to the kiss not being retconned in XY, Ash won't forever remain a 10 year old kissless fag running around with his boytoy, and will eventually find SOMEONE, whether it's Serena, Dawn, Misty, May, heck even Iris, since his story is already over and done with Okay retcon'chads', guess we'll just have to accept this state of affairs and move on.

Serena will NEVER be able to stand close to Ash like that or this ever again.
>Sir, how do get around Ash/Serena spending time around each other???? aiiiieeee muh kiss! >Uh, make Serena not hear Ash on the phone when Koharu is next to her. >Oh and then uh, make Wallace DEMAND to battle Ash >Also, after Ash wins...uh, make Wallace shower Ash with a bunch of shit he'll never use. >Oh, OH and THEN....make Goh run off to catch Altaria so Ash is late as fuck >*laughs*, and then make Ash run past her to hop on the boat only giving them seconds to talk >Genuis Sir! Should we give the episode to Omode? >*laughs* >*laughs*
This is refuted by the fact that Journeys already showed Ash's Pokémon from SM and the past series

Bros, i just saw the pokémon movie i choose you, i really liked the movie, But the ending song while they show ash pasr traveling companions always got me a little emotional. What do you think of the song bros? I really like it.
I know its bait but if Tomiyasu retcon this to a fist bump or a hug I can unironically see a lot of Amourfags killing themselves or sending ten death threats per second
Andrew Ross
RIP frog, I always thought you were kinda stupid but I grew to like you and even your donut steel design. Now you've become one of my absolute favorites, and are slowly overtaking my favorite Pokémon as this saga constantly tries to shove it down my throat.
Xavier Scott
So why did the kiss and A-G end up being the biggest boogeymen in Tomiyasu's eyes?
Easton Watson
Or better yet, have a special with her falling in love with another guy.
Ryan Nguyen
Because their fans are crazy and they didn't want to end like MLP?
>aurelia Matsui is probably the biggest Lillifag in the staff, do you really think she will shoved aurelia instead of making the episode a 70% Lillie screentime, 30% the rest?

>next episodes >lillie return >another alola episode >project mew episode Are we approaching the endgame? I feel like the plot has been moving forward quite quickly since the TR radio episode.
