Normally I don’t cover anime news, but I want to watch ‘Best Wishes’ just for fun, so I’m going to cover some of the major news that comes out. Thanks PokeMark for the tip off on this news!
UPD: translations and small bits by Kriffix
In the picture above we have a new character, Shooty.
Shooty (reference to his picture taking)
An upstart trainer from Konako Town. He’s aiming to compete in the Isshu league and is the kind of boy who always fights to win whilst searching for high level battles. He keeps records of his travels by taking pictures of Pokemon he’s never seen before. He has a very methodological side and always says “Something like that’s so simple!”
We don’t know his exact role yet, but he may be Ash’s rival or a character that shows up sporadically throughout the season.
It also appears that Joy has been replaced with a new character who looks like her (but YOUNGER) and we have a much more homosexual Police Lady this time around. Not liking that new haircut, but glad they’re headlining this season with both Dento and Lesbo-Jenny to make it more LGBT friendly. </silliness>

UPD: Someone uploaded filb’s video to YouTube which shows the Promo. Picture of Shuuti in the anime and Dento’s gym has rocks in it! Rock gym leader? Hmm. Mijumaru’s shell is DETACHABLE. Crazy, crazy stuff. Also TV Tokyo has released 6 second ‘Best Wishes’ ads featuring meguroko, shikijika, and mamambou if you want to check them out :]
<3 pokejungle
ps- Ugh I’m tired. Only reason I’m up is that McDonald’s called me [AT 6:30AM!!] to see if I could work. FML. Can’t work because I need to SLEEP.
pps-Our resident translator Kriffix thinks Dent will be a grass-type Gym leader since he makes his Pokemon use solarbeam.
omg i want to take mijumaru’a shell
lol
So I’m about 100%sure that ash will have a mijumaru are how3ver you spell it anyways to me mijumaru kind of reminds me of ash
Only 4 weeks!!!! HATE the new Jenny!
For some reason when I see Shooty (blond guy) I think russian or scandanavian.
YAY, love the new jenny, and Joy is… o///o
u guys living in US are lucky, every body in US plays pokemon but in my country, uh maybe m the only one playing pokemon and interrested in pokemon in my country T-T
AHHH who heard kibago say “Kiba”? Awwwwwwwwww!
And that looked an awful lot like Solarbeam
It may look like Solarbeam but it maybe a new move
Despite the fact he clearly shouts ‘Solar Beam’ before the attack?
yeah even though he said solar beam it could be a different move Its my bad I dont know japenese so I didnt know he said Solar Beam sorry
why cant the whole world be like japan?
It been shown in several pieces of media for weeks that Mijumaru has a detatchable shell, I thought everyone knew already. Pretty much set on Miju being Water/Fighting, if its evo wasn’t proof enough, the shell weapon should sort it out.
Well, these new Jenny and Joy’s look…intersting, for sure. They look child-like, so maybe their nothing more than younger Jenny’s and Joy’s who will reoccur through the series as they look distincive from the other Joy’s and Jenny’s.
I’m happy that the old jennies and joys disappeared!!!
yeah nurse joy was starting to get boring. I wonder if Brock would like this new one…
i HATE the ugly jungle girl…
its pretty cool how mijumaru used its shell as a shield (wonder if that could be a new move?)
yeah and I hate the new Jenny. but who knows? she might have a ponytail hiding behind her neck?… >_<
Wow… The writing is really going down the drain. “Let’s get rid of characters, but replace them with characters exactly like them!” Yeah, that’ll work.
i hope pokabus final evolution has 16 nipples that shoot flames
Haha ew. Even tho i kno you’re kidding its still, ever so wrong
Ash needs to get Mijumaru and have it evolve all the way. He hasn’t had a water starter for 2 generations now, and the ONLY water Pokemon he’s ever had to evolve was Krabby.
Please, writers, break Ash’s water Pokemon curse!
Plus he’d end up with a fighting tyoe too (by my reckoning), freeing him up to have other types.
I think that was Ash battling Dento so Im guessing he is going to have a mijumaru anyways mijumaru reminds me of Ash anyways
Miju~~~~! I need one. 0-0 *foams at the mouth*
Cool so I just watched the video, looking nifty!
It may be worth noting that Dent uses Solar beam too. Grass gym leader anyway? Maybe he’ll even get a tsutaaja (it’s suit him big time after all).
Dent uses Solarbeam???? He secretly a Pokemon! LOL
そういう意味で言ったんじゃないって！w
Aww. You ruin my fun. XD I could totally see Dent firin’ his lazor.
I’m hoping he gets a Burokko, if that is indeed the name of that broccoli-monkey revealed as a toy. It kind of makes sense, seeing as kibago was revealed at the same time and has turned out to be the girl’s main pokemon 😀
I got a question who is the girls starter going to be
Kibago? XD It seems a little silly to get her one of the ‘starters’ when she’s already got a perfectly good pokemon. Maybe Ash will get all thre this gen?
if mijumarus shell is DETACHABLE im gonna predict his final evo gets a big shell SHEILD to use in battle like a otter samurai or maybe a shell sword i hope he gets a helmet to
^ this
Hey… this is something that I’ve noticed that’s kind of strange. It really has nothing significant to do with Best Wishes, but has anyone else noticed that Dento’s sclera (the white of his eyes) isn’t there? Go look at his character design in Corocoro and watch the video again. I just find it interesting is all.
