Yeah, I guess that's how it would work.I think they meant another series, as in how Advance Battle was a continuation of the Hoenn saga (Or the Advance series. How ever you want to put it.)
Considering there are usually about two different dubbed seasons per Generation, we should be getting another "season" by the time Ash gets his 5th or 6th badge.
What do you think the names of future seasons? What do you think will happen? New gyms, evolutions, captures? I heard that the next season of DP was gonna be called Diamond Dynasty is Japan.
It's most likely a rumor, but you know how each region has like 3 seasons.
