I kinda like his new outfit, and the colors of the hat reminds me of his first one only with a Pokeball istead of the that L like symbol. As for the eyes, I'm glad they're trying something new, and it makes me wonder if they're gonna do anything different to Jesse and James' design. And I hope that faster paced means less filler episodes.

While i do like most of the new clothes, i think the white part of the... thing on his torso would be less distracting with black or something, it's just too "LOOK AT MAH BELLY!" bright.

Also, in the trailer, Dento asks Ash for an autograph it seems. ...the second time i saw it i remembered that his VA is Kira, the guy who kills people whose names are written in a notebook. That guy wants Ash to write his name in a notebook. I honestly backed away and said "OH MY GOD"

His eyes don't bother me...too much.

I noticed in that poster how the evolution of Minezumi looks like.... it thinks its sooo bada$$.lmao Just look at it, arms crossed, those eyes that seem like its on dope...XD

Ash looks hella different, its not that i dont like his eyes, i just want to know why they did it. Iron Tail looks better, because it would make it seem more like a Steel Type attack. Onix glows the same way when its going to use Double-Edge, a Normal move, so it could get confusing. Im still hoping that Ash ges Tsutarja & trades it for Dento's Yanappu.... i can totally see that happening.

we've already seen Miruhoggu

his eyes were always brown guys...

also

Too adorable! AHHHH!

His new designs grown one me

As for the new Iron Tail...I'm mixed.

I was thinking Shooti gets the Grass starter since Ash gets the Water, to parallel the games.

Um, guys, remember that Ash can get more the one of the starters, heck all three if that's how the writers want to go. My prediction for the starters:

Ash will get Tsutarja and Pokabu, Iris will get Mijumaru, and being a Gym Leader Dento doesn't really need a Starter (especially one from his home region).

As for Ash's design, let's take a look at all of them "back-to-back" to see how "different" the art styIe is with his Isshu clothes:

Kanto & Johto | Hoenn & Battle Frontier

Sinnoh | Isshu

Now disregarding the clothing *cough*Hoennisthebest*cough*, Ash's face hasn't really change since his debut. So I think the reason we note the eye color change is because this is the first time he had color added to his eye which was normally all black. In fact I put the Isshu picture in Paint and painted the eyes black and it looked back to normal. So all in all nothing has changed with Ash except for addition of color to his eye.

As for the clothing, the Isshu one does things the other didn't. For one Ash's pants are black for the first time as in the previous Generations they were blue. Also the shirt has much more white to it then the others, and there looks to be one white then blue meaning Ash is overall wearing a lighter color shirt then his previous ones which were overcome in a blue or black making them look darker. One other little change is that Ash's hat has seemed to reverse back to his original design minus the green "L" (which has been replaced with a blue Pokeball logo) and the seam running down the middle. Oh, the remember this is the stock artwork and the one for Isshu probably looks odd because they didn't really shade it that much. A better version will hopefully come out eventually.
