If they indeed plan to bring back Ash at some point, they should make like big event movies featuring him as a Pokemon Master or some s***.

Damn maybe i read too much into it

I think the anime rn is the protagonist going around every region right?

Thought it meant that Gaia would have a similar concept in that we would travel to different far away places (not regions tho, like Gen 7 but on a bigger scale)

Palworld looking at the leaks like

That seems like the plot of Pokemon Journeys where Ash was hopping from region to region.

Damn im even more behind on the anime than i thought

Im just a videogame nerd (to the point i even play fangames lmao)

yea f*** centro

Insane they still around

They are annoying af

This is insane bro

She's based off Jennifer Lopez lmao

One thing that has come out of this is Game Freak is heavily involved in the anime. It's so much concept art for anime characters like Meowth, Wobbufet, Ash, the Horizon crew, Brock, Paul, etc. It's even early artwork of Paul with a different design. I never would have thought they would help with the anime.

probably just to make sure they don’t contradict too much

Idk, I could see if it was like pokemon designs, but these are like straight up character designs and even beta trailers for Diamond and Pearl anime and BW anime that's been found. Seems like Game Freak had their artist helping make them.

Beta Blaziken actually had wings. That's crazy.

Game Freak messed up by not letting Sugimori run the company. He questions things like we do.

That blaziken design is crazy

It's like a fusion of Blaziken and latias lol

Nah Blaziken's actual beta design dropped lol looks like Blaziken with flame wings.

Apparently Latiken was a placeholder for a Delibird evolution that was scrapped.

Knew it was gonna be like this

though i was expecting s*** like p*** of the characters

oh wtf

i think it’s okay to embed tweets with images, as long as they’re for beta stuff, not the anime spoilers / future game spoilers

That early draft of metagross is creepy af

Yeah how does it not look like latias to you with those wings and pose???
