Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series Sets U.S. Date for New Episodes of Ash’s Final Season

 

2022 ended with a bang when it was revealed that Ash Ketchum would be entering the final leg of his journey in the long-running Pokémon anime. Now a date has been set for the final chapter’s stream in the United States, with a new batch of Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series episodes set to premiere on Netflix on February 24.

 

The final part of Ash’s 25-season journey will conclude with a collection of special episodes commemorating the long road Ash and Pikachu traveled to get there, as well as all the friends they met along the way. The availability of additional batches on Netflix will be announced at a later date.

Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series Part two synopsis:

 

Ash’s next World Coronation Series battle is against Drasna of the Kalos Elite Four, but first, he visits his friends Clemont and Bonnie! Then, Chloe meets another of Ash’s friends and enters a Pokémon Contest Spectacular with Eevee, and when Ash’s bond with Lucario reminds him of Greninja, he heads back to Kalos for some special training. Meanwhile, Goh faces his final trial missions for Project Mew, and a trek through the Crown Tundra results in a joyous reunion for Lillie’s family. As the Masters Eight Tournament draws near, Ash’s former rival Paul appears—and Ash is eager to battle!
