·Ash is turned into stone:
>Tragic moment.>Lasted only minutes.>Meant to a be a reference to a tie-in special where Mewtwo talked with other clones. One of them (Amber) told him that tears are full life, hence why Ash comes back after all pokémon cry for him.· FRLG and BW:
>Meant to be tragic.>Lasted entire arcs.>May or may not have been done so readers would buy the arcs that followed them (I believe they were, but one is free to differ). I mean, just look at pic-related, Black hasn't had a single proper appearance in BW2 yet and he still appears in this cover.
