>>48257415To be honest that will be a Goh episode, leaving the reunion of Ash and Cynthia briefly, but it is because they have been building their confrontation for 3 seasons, Cynthia has always had that aura of mentor for Ash's "hero" journey, so it's obvious that they want to make their showdown more than just a casual battle, they will probably use that episode to remind the casual audience of who Cynthia is and her teacher-student relationship with Ash, using Goh as a narrative resource.
