Best Wishes! Da! is announced (probably as the last saga before Gen 6 comes out)
So, It's Speculation Time!

Since we got no clear objective of Ash's travels this time (Unova League/Plasma arc are completed), it looks like Ash hasn't something important to fight for. That is, is there any chance we are going to see this fourth 16-man 1v1 tournament finally happen?
 
We need to know what the premise is of this made up region to begin with, and we don't. Anything is possible right now, but yeah, I really don't want another tournament of randomness. One wonders what they ARE going to do. They have a max of 26 episodes to fill with this, assuming they wait until the very end of October with X/Y. (it will more than likely be a few eps less than that)
 
I don't think there will be any more tournaments in this series. The rival montage near the end of BW108 seems to indicate that the writers have finished the storylines of the BW rivals/recurring characters. BW Season 2 Da! will most likely just have random fillers with periods of character development in between.
 
The rivals are all done. That's why Iris beat her rival in the Junior cup that was the end of her

1.Iris didn't win, Dragonite did.
2.Georgia said she was looking forward to going against Dragonite again when it got under-control.
3.Burgundy hasn't beaten Cilan.
4.We have 4 episode titles so far and about four more months of titles left. Not the time to be calling anything.
5.Burgundy hasn't gone up a rank yet.
 
Come on, Burgundy/Georgia haven't been finished, and Ash deserves a win all for himself before leaving Unova (well, not exactly?)

Also, even though we don't know what the point of this journey will be, we know that nothing important is left unshowcased from the Gen 5 games. Only certain locations (who pretty much can't be at Filleregion) and characters (Hugh?).

That is, the chances of one final tournament are more than ever...
 
Since there was a Junior Cup, it stands to reason there's a Senior Cup or some such.

But as others have said, we've had three tourneys already, and the League...and none of them particularly good :dead:

On one hand, they could take a page from the games' book (for once) and bring back old characters (mainly gym leaders) and Pokémon aplenty. But one the other hand, the producers could likely fuck it all up just like they have almost everydamnthing else in Best Wishes, so it might be best if they left well enough alone.

Either way, I'm thinking about abandoning ship for a month or so. Definitely skipping these episodes
 
It will take them TONS of episodes to do that, though. Otherwise, it may be rushed, liked everything before it.

Get used to it. There is NO WAY BW will ever stand up from its mistakes. Let's hope for Gen 6...
 
I agree. I had hopes of it happening in Da!, but it looks like the region is between Unova and Kanto. I can't see any reason for Georgia/Burgundy being there...
 
Seeing as how Freddie O'Martian (the tournament announcer) will appear in DA, I am sure there will be another tournament. I don't really know how they are gonna bring Georgia and Burgundy to Dekorora islands but I guess we'll see.

Perhaps they'd come for the tournament? Wouldn't be the first time they've used one to gather all the rivals together.

Wouldn't make a lot of sense for them to leave Unova just to participate in a tournament on an island near Kanto. Then again, the writers have done stuff like that without giving any explanation so who knows.
 
The famous Decolora scan that reveals more than 10 DA episodes shows us that we are going to get 10 fillers so far...
Is there still a chance of a fourth tournament? I have just lost all hope, it looks like the tournaments were only part of the Unova League arc (till 108, that is...)

We don't know if all of the episodes that they've revealed are going to be filler just yet. There's probably still a chance for another tournament. They might throw one last one in there before Iris and Cilan leave, even though that probably would have come up by now in the ads for the new arc, but I'm hoping that we won't have another tournament. Aside from the second Club tournament, all of the tournament arcs have been just terrible in my opinion. The repetitive one-on-one format, the rushed battles and the cheap wins just made them really bad and after how both the Junior Cup and the Unova League turned out, I'd be perfectly fine with just going through more filler episodes instead of another tournament arc. At least most of the filler episodes have been pretty decent in BW for me.
 
You'd think that if something more important was happening, they would've said so. Right now, all we know is that this is leading to Kanto, and Iris and Cilan may be leaving. Now I may also agree that sort of thing doesn't happen until the end of the generation. Our info has that happening by at least July or August. Either they really aren't going at that point, and there is still room for junk in Kanto, (I don't think anything important is happening in these islands at all), or the insane speculation on the airings stopping with enough time for the dub to catch up could be right after all. It would have to stop in July for that to be true, though, and I'm not sure about that. I don't fully support this theory because I don't know if we are four months or less behind the raw, and the whole premise behind us catching up for XY is ludicrous. It would require unprecedented cooperation between the JP production and the localizers for all nations. I think there are countries far more behind us in that respect.
 
Well, the Decolora Islands are not BIG CITIES, so no Battle Clubs there.
And no more ME? Why? At least I part ways with Ash... I miss him already, which is why I caught a Pichu.

Yep, I would like "you" to appear once again, because "you" were introduced quite late... Yet, I think you'll get the Harisson/Tyson treatment instead of the Ritchie one...
