The Pokémon Company group revealed that Ash Ketchum, the protagonist of the Pokémon animated series, has become the top Trainer in the Pokémon world after winning the Masters Eight Tournament of the Pokémon World Coronation Series. Ash welcomes his victory in the latest episode of “Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series,” which premiered today in Japan and will air worldwide in the future.
In the latest season of the Pokémon animated series, Ash and his Pikachu have put their training to the test—and as a result, Ash has officially achieved his goal of becoming the new Monarch of the Pokémon World Coronation Series. The historic win represents a culmination of Ash’s adventures in the Pokémon world, from countless battles to challenging quests, spanning 25 years.
Since the start of their journey in the Kanto region, Ash and his Pikachu have faced numerous rivals, often coming in shy of a tournament victory. However, the pair continued to forge ahead, with Ash eventually securing the title of the first-ever Pokémon League Champion at the Manalo Conference in the Alola region, signifying how far he had come as a Pokémon Trainer.
Ash’s title of World Champion is also a significant pop culture milestone and celebration for Pokémon fans around the world who have remained committed to following his journey over the past 25 years.
“Ash Ketchum’s determination and perseverance to achieve his goal of becoming the world’s top Pokémon Trainer over the course of 25 seasons represents the very best of what it means to be a Traine. We cannot wait to celebrate this moment with Pokémon fans when the newest season of ‘Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series’ and this adventure-defining episode air around the world in the coming year. This is a season fans won’t want to miss!”
Taito Okiura, vice president of marketing for The Pokémon Company International.
Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series” is streaming now exclusively on Netflix in the U.S. Fans can stay tuned to Netflix for new episode availability information and to join Ash and his Pikachu as he embarks on his latest adventure in becoming the world’s strongest Pokémon Trainer.

Maybe this will break the curse that keeps him from aging. What cruel god would force someone to stay a child and battle animals for their entertainment?
Way to make the title a spoiler you fucking assholes
Why would you spoil this?
I wish you didn’t front-line this spoiler moments after the episode airs. I trusted that this website wouldn’t do that when all I wanted to do was check any news this morning. I didn’t get the chance to watch the episode quite yet.
Apologies 😞
Hey sickr, apparently Danny Trejo has joined the cast of the super Mario bros. Movie.

Yeah same here.
I appreciate the article and dedication, true it might be a spoiler but no one forced anyone to click on it or read the article. “it’s a spoiler, let me click on it anyhow just so i can point it out and announce that it’s a spoiler”

It’s….literally in the title, you don’t even need to click on it to get spoiled.
By the time you’ve clicked on it you’ve already been spoiled so it doesn’t really matter at that point.
That’s not how the internet works. News pages show article titles and when the titles a spoiler you have no way to avoid
This was an asshole thing to do
This is such a huge surprise!
Although I’m happy he won, I’m upset that there’s no point in watching the series now, I guess that’s my fault for following Nintendo related news 😂💖 but please in the future can you please say big Pokemon anime spoilers concerning Pokemon World Cup or something thank you 😁💖 not that I’m upset or anything, but it would be nice 🥰💖
No worries will do. Lesson learnt 😊
This is a piece of shit site I’m making sure my news feed blocks this as a source from now on
Yeah at least you learn sickr. No worries. Mistakes happens. 🙂
I don’t know, couldn’t they just somehow delete this article and re post it in a few days or a week from now. If that’s even possible, the moderation can delete inappropriate post so i’d assume they can mass delete an entire article.
Actually they can. Sickr can do so anytime.
Not even out subbed yet come on with the spoilers -_-
My boy Ash was born to be the winner. c:
Great thanks for spoiling it! I was just about to watch it with English subtitles today! >:(
You messed up. You say people had need to click the link to see it. Yet the title of the article alone spoiled it. I know you meant well, but this didn’t need to be posted.
In that case you technically wouldn’t need to click into any article to read it, you could just read the title on the front page and look at the picture attached to it and form your own conclusion.
In Sickr’s defense, while he could have labeled the headline as “Major Pokemon anime spoilers” or something like that (thus leaving it up to us to decide if we wanted to be spoiled or not), the official English Pokemon Twitter spoilt it before it’s aired in English. Sickr only did his job and reported what’s official here.
On-topic, I haven’t watched the anime series in years now as I lost interest in Pokemon a long time ago, but hey congrats Ash for making your dream come true after 25 years and not aging one bit.🤣
