me said:Well at the end of the gathering in Pallet, he returns to the group, that is how I know being as I have seen the epi and anyway, I think there is gonna be a Kanto Battle Fronteir saga next, so don't expect the D/P saga as soon as first thought. Plus Ash, Max, May and Brock are going to travel Kanto again for the Kanto Pokemon Contests. Looks like they have added contests in Kanto too now.
