Pokemon Journeys Reveals The Masters 8 Tournament in New Trailer

By Evan Valentine

Ash Ketchum has been the star of the Pokemon anime series for decades and now, in the current season of the series Pokemon Journeys, the trainer has never been closer to achieving his dreams. Becoming a part of the Masters 8 thanks to his win within the Alola Region Tournament during the events of Pokemon Sun And Moon, a new trailer has arrived that shows off some of the battles that are set to take place in the upcoming battles.        

If you're unaware of how currently constitutes the Masters 8, the roster entails the likes of Leon (The current world champion), Cynthia (the Sinnoh Champion), Steven (the Hoenn Champion), Lance (the Champion of Johto and Kanto), Diantha (The Kalos Champion), Alain, Iris (the Unova Champion), and of course Ash (the Alola Champion). Before this tournament takes place, it seems that Ash will have some big reunions from his days participating within the Alola Region, with Professor Kukui in his wrestling attire already featured in a preview for a future episode of Pokemon Journeys.

The Official Twitter Account for Pokemon Journeys' anime has shared a new look at the upcoming tournament for the Masters 8, which is sure to feature some of the biggest battles of the television series to date and might very well see Ash become the world champion and achieve his dream that he has been following throughout the series:

Ash has come a long way in Pokemon Journeys, adding some serious firepower to his roster with the likes of Gengar, Lucario, and Dragonite to name a few. While Goh wasn't able to become a part of the Masters 8, Ash's friend's dream might also come true with it seemingly likely that he'll gain acceptance into Project Mew. The question now arises for many fans in the case of Masters 8, should Ash win and become the world champion, will Ketchum hand off the reins as the series protagonist to a new trainer? 

Do you think Ash will win the Masters 8 and become the strongest trainer in the world? Feel free to let us know in the comments or hit me up directly on Twitter @EVComedy to talk all things comics, anime, and the world of Pokemon.
