This year 2022 we had:
* 25th Anniversary of the birth of the Pokémon anime.
* 20th Anniversary of Misty's farewell.
* Ash is crowned Champion of the Pokémon World Championships.
Today, November 7, marks the 20th anniversary of the broadcast 273rd episode in Japan, "Gotta Catch Ya Later!" which marked Misty's farewell in her role as co-star of the anime.
Misty and Sakura, a very well built friendship, very beautiful, pure and sincere.
What should I say about the episode? It's fantastic, very original and among the funniest of the first season. Although it might seem focused on Misty, all the characters contribute something and no one feels like filler...
Before owning her Lapras in Pokémon Gold & Silver, Misty had one in the Dengeki Pikachu manga and official artworks by Sugimori. She would also get it in HeartGold & SoulSilver, Black & White 2, Pokémon Masters EX (only event) and some official cards.
I like this homage to Misty from FireRed & LeafGreen in Pokémon Masters EX. I look forward to her HeartGold & SoulSilver look.
