    I think his father will be revealed in the last few episodes. Ash will be facing the returning champ which will be revealed to be his father. They have a big battle until it's only Ash's Pikachu and his father's Raichu standing. They be the biggest battle to ever be in the series. It end with both of them creating a huge thunderbolt, destroying the stadium ( no one dies). Pikachu and Raichu are both still standing until Pikachu falls, making Ash's father the winner. Ash is sad but his father tells him he's one of the greatest opponents he's ever faced. His father ask him to go along with him on their own journey together, which Ash agrees too. Jessie and James resign from Team Rocket and settle down with each other. Misty (or which ever shipping you like) becomes Ash's girlfriend, Brock gets a girlfriend, and everyone else is doing fine. It ends with Ash, His father, Pikachu, and Raichu walking into the sunrise, beginning their epic journey.

    Remember the Pokémon hero of the ninja village was ash greninja .

    The trainer of greninja is ash’s father
    Greninja is froakies father
    Ash’s father is the hero of the move 2000 and the one to change the legend to “and the world should turn to ash”
    Ash’s father done the same as ash did to his greninja

    3:Both have dark (not black though) hair
    4:Red is much older than Ash
    5:During silver,gold,heart gold,soul silver, he is still on mount silver, implying he is still his journey

    Well Giovani can be Ash's father. He must have turned bad and abandoned Delia. And Delia can't tell Ash this bitter truth so she told Ash that his father is on a journey which is a lie.
    About Giovani attacks, well how can Giovani remember Ash if he left when Ash was very young.
    And Delia also would have never shown Giovanni's photograph to Ash, so Ash doesn't know how his father looks like.
    And we all know that Delia and Giovani were never shown together in anime so its possible.

    • @anshul2675

    Personally, I think it's good that Ash's father isn't anywhere in the picture. It makes Ash easy to relate to for children who's dad died, or left them. Personally, I prefer someone like Ash as a role model for my kids over someone like Gumball or Uncle Grandpa. Ash is strong, adventurous, determined, and willing to go the extra mile to achieve his dreams. He's friendly, loyal, easy to get along with despite his strong characteristics, caring. He's everything a man should be, in my opinion. All the characters in shows these days are too damn wacky.

  • @MrProofMan
    @MrProofMan Před 9 lety +158

    In my opinion, Silver's reaction kind of does seem acceptable. Ritchie didn't mention a last name, so there really wasn't the need for a "holy balls, this kid knows my son" reaction. It was more like "he knows a kid with my son's distinct name, could it be him?". There was no last name, no further description, so really it sort of fit.

    • @Miju001

    If Ash's father left right before or right after Ash was born, then there is a chance that the father is unlikely to recognize Ash as a preteen - meaning that Giovanni could be Ash's father. In the show where they met face to face, I don't recall anyone saying Ash's name within earshot of Giovanni (when not controlled by the mirror).

      Ash's father's name is Pete Ketchum. I saw it in the manga-based game called Pokemon Adventure Red Chapter. In Lavender Town, in the graveyard, Delia was standing in front of Pete's tombstone while talking about how he was a good man and such. So I think Ash's father is Dead already.

      Ash can still be the son of Oak. For example: when Oak was 25 he got a child ( father of Gary ). And when Oak was 50 Gary got born. Then at age 51 Oak divorced and met Ash's mother and got a child with her ( Ash! ) :D

  • @timeparadox999

    Best theory, BEST THEORY:
    Ash can use Aura and communicate with Pokemon on a much higher level than any ordinary trainer. He managed to become the object of Latias's attraction and his aging is incredibly slowed.
    Pokemon inherit species from their mother and moves from their father. Ash, a human, could obtain these Pokemon-like traits if his father WAS a Pokemon.
    In fact, there is an egg group called "Human-like." With all the other cross-species breeding Pokemon are capable of, it's not inconceivable for members of this egg group to be able to reproduce with their namesake. And do you know what Pokemon is classified under this group?

      Actually ash fainted in the first episode when he crashed misty's bike and he's been in a coma ever since. So all these new reagens are all in ash's mind. Brock represents ash's sexuality.

    Bro I’ve watched literally hundreds of your videos and I’ve gotta finally say. You’re a super good looking guy. I know this shouldn’t matter but it kind of reminds me how annoying it has been for me to be a good looking poke fan. It’s like people can’t take you seriously as a nerd if you’re traditionally considered handsome. Regardless I love your content. Keep it up forever.

    This dad would probably be a new character and not someone we already met.

    Well, its kinda pointless to...... *puts on shades*

      No. It's accepted

      +Sakaru Kamaah I think it would be more likely for ash to be reds father since misty is younger in the anime than she is in the games.

      +Layla dog yeah I think so too. Ash actually is the older one

      Ew

    • @Dessphoric
      @Dessphoric Před 10 lety

      Carlos Lopez lol i think what happened supporting this theory was that Ash's father and mother gave birth to Ash and the father got turned into a Pikachu, like when Ash got turned into a Pikachu in a Pokemon episode, except his dad got changed permanantly. maybe someday someone will turn Pikachu back to his father and... well, i dont know then after... :P

    • @juanreyes3822
      @juanreyes3822 Před 10 lety

      no because on the very first episode Pikachu hated ash!Watch the anime

      @Dessphoric Před 10 lety

      juan reyes we do but maybe at first he didnt tell it was ash... and he wanted to pair up with ash instead of any other trainer

    • @Dessphoric
      @Dessphoric Před 10 lety

      juan reyes he thought Ash would be on time

    Does that mean Brock or brock's dad met him. Maybe brock's dad traveled with ash's dad but brocks dad decided to come back
