Galar on this map is the right way up, whilst it's region map is upside down. If you watch the E3 demo of the Wild Area, you see the lakes with South (lake close to rail bridge close to Manchester City) and East (lake closest to the Manchester City entrance.)
Anime geography has been much closer to the real world's than the games though. That and the entire region would be scaled to be country-sized as seen from how much travelling the groups did, whereas the games are pretty... game-sized?
If my memory serves me right, SM's first trailer contained footage of Ash and Pikachu exploring Alola and being enrolled in the Pokémon School and etc. With BW's announcement, we first got the series logo, silhouettes of Iris and Cilan with them being showcased in a couple of trailers for awhile with Ash not being revealed until the Sinnoh League had ended in Japan.
I'd rather they create an entirely new outfit like they did for his Hoenn journeys instead of re-using the male character but we know what the easier way out is.
I'm afraid blue is more than likely. However his top and cap, I think, will be inspired from Chase's from LGPE, while the rest of his clothing being similar to Victor's.. We won't know until sunday.
Kind of like the image I posted above? Looks like an amalgamation of the two outfits.
Only the real design will be different
)
His outfit could have the number 25, however with the play on numbers in japan, they may surprise us with something unique, something that could truly suit Ash.I'm pretty much expecting the knit hat to be switched out for a baseball cap, as that's been the standard before (see DP). That doesn't bother me so much because I am so used to seeing him in the baseball cap at this point.
I also agree I'd really like for the top of the outfit to remain red! It's different. Ash's DP get up wasn't one of my favorites, but it really stands out because it took a step away from having so much blue involved. Red is already part of his standard color scheme, so I don't think it would be too out of place. I think the concept art actually looks quite nice and I wouldn't mind if his outfit ended up looking something like that, although I do still think I'd prefer the top to be red (and those plaid pockets better be part of it because
There are really two big question marks I have in terms of Ash's wardrobe this series:
- If they're going to keep him gloveless (there's a band/bracelet involved again, just like SM)
- What his gym "uniform" is going to look like! This has me so excited; I'm going to be really annoyed if they don't adapt it in the anime (I don't see why they wouldn't, but they've done plenty of things that don't make sense before so...) That might not be something we see at first glance but I'm still super curious!

The uniforms are a huge part of the gyms, so I doubt they'll omit it. My guess for Ash's uniform is that he'll have #25.
But what is the japanese word play connected with the number 25? Because that's what the other Gym Leaders have.I hope he has the bright red shirt as well.
Welp it was confirmed today that a new Pokémon anime series will be coming soon. Hopefully there'll be more info this weekend.

The next series will be revealed on Sunday, September 29, 2019.
If I were to guess, SM137's announcement is probably gonna be an ad saying to look forward to that date.
