    Musicals? Seriously? Is he particpating in them? I'd imagine Harley would just be tickled with this news.



    I'm not fond of the new girls hair. Seems too wild. Did anyone mention if the fat lady is her mother?

    ....Fat lady?


    have you even bothered looking at her artwork?


    Now let's get some stuff down here!


    Look at her figure from the side....it's freaking skinny


    Now look at her Apron....notice the very large SHADOW it's giving? that wouldnt be there if she was fat


    honestly it's the Apron that makes her look big


    check the facts before assuming that she is fat -___-

    Actually I havent. I was on Serebii and people there were arguging the same thing. I just went with the first few posts that called her fat cause she worked at a kitchen. Get it? Fat, kitchen?


    But yea, its the Apron. It's HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE.


    Now back to the main question. Is she the mother of the crazy hair girl?


    Haven't memorized the names yet. I need Pikachu's dictionary =D

    Already I don't like him as he not only looks like a rival, he looks like a Paul clone (or more specifically, a Silver clone, because of the hair). That being said, if he is a new rival presented to Ash, the chances of Paul remaining as Ash's main rival just got a whole lot lower... unless Ash has two rivals in Isshu that are mirror images of each other; but that doesn't sound so great to me.

    Not only does Mijumaru looks like it's battling in a gym-like environment, it looks like it's battling against one of Dento's Pokemon. It could belong to Ash, but if Shutei is his new rival, it could belong to him too. Anyone have any idea as to the attack that's being used against Mijumaru at 0:45? It could give a hint to Dento's type specialty.

    Well, Serebii has shed some light on the new character, Shooti. It turns out that he is indeed aiming for the Isshu League, but he's also a Pokemon photographer, as well, liking to take pictures of Pokemon that he's never seen before. With that, I take back what I said about him appearing to be a Paul clone. Since he's aiming for the Isshu League, he'll definitely be Ash's rival, but with him being a photographer, it sounds like he might not be Ash's main rival, as he doesn't sound all that hardcore. (Perhaps there is a chance of Paul returning after all.) Of course, he still could be main rival; the writers might just want to change things around a bit.

    A Pokemon photographer as the main rival? Well that's interesting.


    I don't know why, but I kinda of like Joy better with longer hair.

    They are REALLY pushing the fact that Isshu is a far away region, aren't they?

    Jennoy Epidemic Continues To Spread:
    Meh, the new Officer Jenny looks okay, though it makes her look like she's fresh from a boot camp.


    As for Nurse Joy, she's obviously been redesigned to look like the nurses in the Isshu Pokecenters.


    A Photo Of A Rival:
    I would really like Paul to continue to be Ash's rival in Isshu, but if they were to introduce another rival I would hope they bring us an interesting one. If this is him, then I have to let out a sigh and shake my head. He doesn't really sound like a rival, or atleast the main one, mostly because how can you make a photographer as big as a jerk Gary or Paul were?
    Does he have to be a jerk? No, but it would be better for Ash's rival to be a jerk as Ash's ego has alwasy been high and he needs a character to be constantly dropping him back down to realize that he still needs more training to do. Now I suppose a friendly rival could do the same, though it might not make Ash as determined as he was against Gary and Paul since a friendly rival would always consider Ash a worthy foe so Ash doesn't have to prove himself as a worthy trainer.


    Oh, BTW, Pokemon Company, WHEN ARE WE GOING TO SEE PICTURES WITH ASH IN THEM! It's nice we are seeing familiar (albiet redesigned) faces with Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy but I would think if you were to show any character it would be THE main character! If anything to just show his new clothes.

    Yay, so glad we have someone else deciding else to do the League. Now Ash has some competition! But does this mean its going to get boring with two people going for gym battles?

    So the photographer is the one traveling with Ash? I thought it was the waiter. Either way, he looks as ticked off as Paul.

    That means the photographer is Not joining Ash. In other words, he's a rival character like any other in this show who pops up from time to time.

    Personally, I don't want another smug rival to appear, cause no one can top Paul or Gary for that matter at it. I wanna see them do something different with a rival, and the fact that he's a photographer shows that that might be happening. As for the new appearances of Jenny and Joy, I like them both and I'm glad they're switching it up after it all this time.

    ^Agreed, no trainer can compare to Gary Oak and his girth and Paul's attitude of being an actual trainer is too awesome to repeat.
