After more than 20 years with fans, Ash’s time with Pokemon is almost at an end. The hero has been involved with the franchise since it began years ago, and millions if not billions of viewers have come to love Ash since. We have followed the trainer on all sorts of adventures, but his final episode as Pokemon’s main character will come around next month. And now, the synopsis for his finale has gone live.
The update comes from a new TV guide addition in Japan as listings for March 2023 were posted. It was there fans were given details for “Rainbow and the Pokemon Master” ahead of its debut on March 24th. So if you want an idea of how Ash’s final episode will go, you can read the blurb below:

“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?”
As you can see, this final episode sounds like it is going to be an emotional one from top to bottom. We will follow Ash as he returns to his hometown, and Pikachu will be at his side as Ash faces his final hurdle. With some questioning from Gary, Ash will be left to decide what his definition of a Pokemon Master is. He has been ages working towards the title, and fans would agree Ash has reached his goal in just about every way. So in his final outing, it is only right for Ash to realize his own growth.
