>>47505252>Finally a foreign region, new cast, fertile ground for innovation>Competent Team Rocket>Good rivals/recurring characters (Except Trip and Cameron)>Good plot in theory (The idea of facing the truth and the ideals of Ash and N is a great premise, as well as the ethical debate of pokemon battles)It is a curious case where that seemed to have everything to succeed, except the main cast, and the last straw is that Iris and Cylan are not bad characters, they just did not work as a group, especially with such a badly written Ash, I wonder how it would have been handled the series with a focus different like Journeys?
