So does Ash let all his friends know what's going on now?

Both Misty and May seem to know what's happing in Ash life.
Like Misty knew who May was.
May knew who Dawn was.
Guess he writes to every one about all his new friends?
 
I'm sure he calls them every so often to ask them how they're doing, what they're up to, what he's up to, Brock's still the same, the girl I'm with is alright, etc. I mean isn't that what you do with friends?

Of course this happens all off-screen thankfully, and we're spared the WHEN ARE THEY GONNA APPEAR BAAAAAAAAW stuff.
 
Um... good point. It would seem he does...

HOW COME WE NEVER GET TO SEE IT?!?!?!
 
Probably because of the fan implosion that would happen if there's a hint of any fan favorites coming back in an episode. *coughMistycough*
 
Cuz it's never relevant to the episode storyline at hand.

Oh joy, somebody said the secret word. Everyone to the bomb shelter.
 
There's never been any real evidence of Ash calling his friends. We've never actually seen it in any episode.

Maybe we could just infer that?

We don't need them to go I CALLED MISTY LAST NIGHT WE HAD PHONE SEX or something like that, since it would have nothing to do with the plot and it would be shameless fanservice. There's a chance that he at least talks to them every once and a while while he's at a Pokemon Center.
 
Well look at it this way, in the episode where Dawn captured Buizel and Ash pulled out the Misty lure, Dawn said, "Who is Misty?"

That means up to that point, 39 eps into Sinnoh, neither Ash/Brock made any mention of Misty to Dawn. Which also means Ash likely never called her, because otherwise Dawn would know who she is when he took out the lure.

Also, I don't think Dawn knew about May until May called the group from Snowpoint.

There's been lots of evidence. Mostly when the extra DO come on the show and talk like they know one another. "Oh, he said lots about you!" "You must be the one he was talking about." "So THIS is your friend!"

Or do people really want him to pick up a phone, dial a number on screen, and say hello to all of his pals?

I just pointed out that he doesn't tell his friends about his older friends *until* they call. Dawn probably didn't know who May was at all until she called from Snowpoint in DP75.
 
Well, he talks to Oak, who probably talks to his Mom, and so on and so on. I imagine in a world where you can transport matter across vast distances in an instant, communication's easy.
 
In the hoso specials, I believe Delia said she knew about Ash's new friends, but I don't think Misty did.
 
There are those off screen calls to his friends that Ash makes. Like how Misty knew about May and Max beforehand. It may not be much, but Ash probably does talk to his friends/family off screen every now and then.
 
Well, in "Beauty and the Breeder" from way back in season 4, Brock apparently kept in touch with Suzie through email. So it's possible that the characters have been staying in touch with each other (but most of it takes place off-screen).

Of course, just because Brock checks his email, it doesn't mean that's how Ash keeps in contact with his friends. We all know how bad Ash is with computers, hahahaha. XD

I don't see why people expect this. Ash is not going to tell every one of his friends where is and what he's doing next. We don't even see him call his mother anymore.

Delia calls what...once a saga, even at that? I'm pretty sure Delia never called Ash in any of Johto or AG, but there was that one DP ep she called in.

Oh boy, 3 friends what a task to call them everyone once in a while!

I'm just saying he might do it every once in a while offscreen and it's never mentioned because it isn't important in the slightest. Just normal human behavior, like going to the bathroom.
 
I honestly don't think Ash calls anyone. I don't know why people think he's constantly keeping in touch with Misty, May or Max. You really think Ash is calling them up and asking how they're doing? Very unlikely.

Prof. Oak is the only character he calls every so often.
