Ash Ketchum, the hero of the Pokémon animated series, has finally become a Pokémon Master after more than 1,000 episodes and 22 feature-length films.
Joined by his iconic partner Pikachu, Ash Ketchum has traveled across the land, searching far and wide, in an attempt to catch 'em all. But in all his years of training and battling, the forever 10-year-old has virtually always lost out to stronger trainers in Pokémon League tournaments, falling short of his dream of becoming the very best, like no one ever was a Pokémon Master.
Until now, that is.
In the 139th episode of the current Pokémon Sun and Moon anime arc, Ash finally wins the championship competition of the Alola League, marking the first time the protagonist has won an official Pokémon tournament.
Granted, Ash had already done some pretty incredible things without having championship credentials, such as helping to save the world several times in the Pokémon movies. Still, it’s kinda moving to see him finally achieve a dream he’s been striving for over the past 22 years.
The Ash-always-loses meme finally ends.
