Pokemon Journeys recently brought back a major character into the fold with Cynthia, adding the classic Pokemon trainer to the roster of major returns that have been arriving in the latest season of the popular anime franchise. While the series has been releasing episodes at a steady clip, exploring the journey of Ash and Goh as they attempt to become stronger trainers with the goal of defeating the trainers of the Galar Region, it seems as if the anime will be taking a brief hiatus for one of its episodes that is set to premiere this month.
Following Ketchum’s victory in the Alola League, Journeys has taken a new approach to the story of Ash and Goh by loading them up to bear with the most powerful Pokemon that they’ve added to their respective rosters. With Ash capturing the likes of Gengar and Dragonite, Goh has managed to do what many thought to be impossible in that he was able to capture the legendary Pokemon known as Suicune. Even with these major catches, the journey of these two Pokemon trainers has been an uphill battle as they continue to sharpen their skills and also set out to find the ancient mythical pocket monster known as Mew.
