Well this all but confirms the Gen 9 anime will be delayed by a few weeks at  least, wouldn't be enough time for a farewell episode and a break otherwise.

Is that fanart or does Leon actually have the three Galar starters…

It's official. It was revealed in today's clip show episode.

What are they up to?

No final episode, no resolution for Go/Project Mew, I don't think this series is ending just yet.

 

[BigDocFan]

Really hoping that all of Ash's friends will make it to the stadium for this final battle episode

Yes plz

 

[BigDocFan]

It is possible that Goh might hurry back and might make it back just in time

Judging by the release date of this episode I'm expecting the SV anime to premiere on November 25, since there's usually a one-week break before the next series. Though, the production issues could delay it to early December, who knows

I wouldn't be surprised if the gap between series is longer, best to take their time I feel

I want this episode to be named "Aim to be a Pokemon Master!". Or, if they're still going with the short naming scheme, it could be called "Master."

 

[puddleths]

I like this game of guessing the title. I'll go with... "Monarch."

That's assuming there is going to be a Gen 9 anime. For all we know, this is the finale to the whole thing, all 25 seasons of it.

Yes, the show is over. Pack your bags! Close the anime section! It's been fun!

Do yall (and by yall just the few doomsdayers here), really think the anime would come to an end without being promoted like hell!?

There have been shows that just end with no fanfare at all or warning.

They would not do that with the Pokemon anime though. The anime ending after over twenty years would be huge news and they would promote the heck out of it, especially when they've wanted some episodes of Journeys to get more attention online. That's why they started the series with the Pikachu's backstory as a Pichu episode. There is no reason to think that they'd end the anime rather suddenly without having more fanfare involved.

I do agree with you that a long runner like Pokémon would promote the end of the show and make it spectacular.

It’s also worth noting that the One Piece anime announced that they’re ending it in three years from now. I would imagine we would know in a similar way if the Pokémon anime is ending in the future.
