Ash Ketchum has accomplished a feat that many believed would never take place as the anime protagonist has become the World Champion in Pokemon Journeys. While anime fans around the world celebrate the eternally young trainer’s victory, along with the English voice actor that brings Ash to life, a certain musician who has dabbled in the world of professional wrestling has also lent his take as Bad Bunny congratulates Ketchum on his miraculous win against the former champion, Leon, during the Masters 8 Tournament.

Bad Bunny isn’t just a star when it comes to his music, but he also, as previously mentioned, joined the WWE for a number of matches that showed how he could function superbly within the squared circle. On top of both his music and professional wrestling careers, the musician is also set to take on the role of El Muerto in the titular movie from Sony Pictures. This new role works well within Sony’s Marvel Spider-Man Universe, as the character is also a luchador, and while the Marvel character might not be well known, he seems to be the perfect fit for this role.
Bad Ketchum
Bad Bunny sent his congratulations to the fictional Pokemon trainer, as Ash has finally achieved his dream of becoming the strongest trainer in the world, leaving many fans to wonder whether or not Ketchum will be the star of the anime adaptation moving forward or if he’ll give the reins to a new generation once Pokemon Journeys ends:
For those who don’t speak Spanish, here’s the translation of Bad Bunny’s well wishes to Ash Ketchum following his legendary defeat of the trainer known as Leon:
“Congratulations to Ash Ketchum on that big win. We who are from the beginning know how much it cost.”
With a new Pokemon game set to hit Nintendo Switch shortly, the anime adaptation will most likely shift in turn, and this might make for the perfect opportunity for Ash to welcome a new generation to the anime while presenting himself as the hurdle that they must eventually overcome.
