A new trailer for the series can also be found below:
This batch of Pokemon Ultimate Journeys episodes will see Ash take on multiple champions of various regions as he aims to dethrone Leon of the Kalos region. The Pokemon Company spoiled the conclusion of the tournament (which has already aired in Japan), with Ash and his Pikachu defeating Leon and his Charizard in the finale of the series and Ash being crowned the top Pokemon trainer in the world. Ash was subsequently written out of the Pokemon anime series, with a new Pokemon Horizons anime exploring a new set of characters with no connection to Ash whatsoever. It’s unclear whether Ash will ever return to the Pokemon anime, although it seems like The Pokemon Company is content to let a new batch of characters take the spotlight for the first time in 25 years.
Over on Twitter, Ash’s English voice actor Sarah Natochenny commented on the upcoming release, stating that she put her “entire heart” into these episodes when Ash finally achieves his dream of becoming a top trainer.
Get ready for lots of tears and triumph when the new episodes of Pokemon Ultimate Journeys debuts on Netflix on June 23rd.
