Ash is still on his quest to become a Pokemon Master after winning his first-ever league. He will meet a boy named Gou who has Scorbunny as his partner, but this new protagonist won’t be a sidekick. The show makes it clear Gou will be on equal footing with Ash as the boy tries to catch every kind of Pokemon including Mew.

His desire to find all of these creatures will lead Gou around the world, so fans are eager to see how Ash’s story intertwines with the newcomer.
