Ash is retiring, what does this mean for OW2

The anime is going forward without Ash and Pikachu as the lead protagonists, I’m glad to see change but I have to wonder what this is going to affect for the OW2 story campaign. I mean this retcons a good bit of Null Sector lore but maybe they’ll pull it off

What in the name of Arceus are you going on about? What does Pokemon have to with Overwatch 2?
If there is some connection I sure would like to know.

well its a better game for one

What do you mean that retcons Null-sector, its actually much worse for McCassidy’s story, where does his love story go without Ash?

(this sounds really bad when i read it again)

Uhh… without Ash helping him by being a plus one, yeah thats why.

Aw heck nah, not the Poké****

I did get a weird idea of Mei being an elite for then my old brain clicked and said “Wouldn’t that be Lorelai?”
I wonder if she will start as pure Ice but then throw in steel and electric in a post game.

Thank god. Ash was somewhat compelling in kanto and johto but his character has pretty much devolved to “good spirited and stupid” over the past 20 years. Admittedly journeys was pretty good but we went through a lot of mediocrity to get there.

I think they should add Mewtwo to Overwatch. We’re no stranger to things floating or lab experiments, so he’s a perfect fit.

Despite Ash being an idiot sometimes I will still look back and miss him because of nostalgia reasons

It was him that we followed as kids

I’ve never really gotten into Pokémon, but I remember as a kid the animated show and it was so garbage. Pikachu just saying his name over and over as speech.

My best experience with Pokémon was Super Smash Bros playing Pickahu, Mewtwo and Ash (Mewtwo was the best).

Mewtwo moira looks dope, not gonna lie… I would actually play her a bit if I got that skin.

But still, they can make crossovers without Ash and Pikatchu. I don’t think that will change anything.

I’m glad they made journeys as a good note to end his story on but yeah

Long overdue for something different even if I personally do love Pikachu’s character

Anyone with a computer should at least try out Fire Red

Ik it uses older mechanics but damn it’s a solid Pokemon game

Surprisingly not bad actually

Ash is like 10 years old, a bit too young to retire… :neutral_face: :man_shrugging:.
