A lot of them assuming the Misty/May switch was going to be like the Brock/Tracey one, where the writers would bring back Misty and reunite the original trio when Hoenn ended. Little did they know May would come back for Battle Frontier, and then when DP started and Dawn was introduced they basically had reality set in.
