Was browsing and seeing the new episode of Sword and Shield was out and seeing what was happening when I saw something that shocked me as I didn't expect it to ever happen
{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}
Ash captured and now has a Dragonite |

It'll get ditched almost immediately just like when he had a Goodra.

Hopefully it's the giant one from the lighthouse episode.

Has Ash ever aged or is he supposed to be the same age he was during the start?

He seems to have gotten younger if anything.

I thought this was going to say they killed him.

The OD of the OG? They're immune to f****** everything! Dragonite has x4 weakness to Ice Beam. |

Hopefully it's the giant one from the lighthouse episode. I thought that one was from the Island of Giant Pokemon that just went off somewhere or something. Or yeah it was just a Giant Dragonite that has been seen by few and is a legend among legends. |

Or yeah it was just a Giant Dragonite that has been seen by few and is a legend among legends. Sometimes the anime just likes having random huge pokemon or other oddities, like the crystal Onix. I mean, we do get some indications from the games that the pokedex entries on size aren't an absolute, though, like the fishing contests in a few of the games, so some pokemon do probably skew bigger or smaller in the game setting, too, we just don't really get a lot of indication of it. |

Shame that it took 23 years for Ash to win a League and get a Dragonite.
I’ll be shocked if they ever show released Pokémon like Butterfree and Pidgeot.

Butterfree's shown up a handful of times in flashbacks at least, and got kind of a quickie redux in I Choose You. Pidgeot and Primeape will never be seen again. |

I like that Dragonite seems to have gotten respect again. I remember a period where people often knocked its looks, or favored Salamence, but Dragonite started getting more love from Game Freak. Multiscale, just having a flat-out better movepool than Salamence, and stuff like that helped him out a lot.

Ash just needs to straight up being that dude now after he won the last league. He's won, he's got a Dragonite, now just have him running through the place as he wins and teaches the younger trainers about what it means to be a trainer. Ash needs to be the mentor here as his trainees need to be the novices. He's ready.

Starting with DP though, his IQ regressed |

I always keep giving away my Dragonites and still getting 'em back to myself later on 'cause I miss 'em. That's probably the only Pokemon I've this relationship with in Trading Card Game.  |
