What the hell was that ending? I might have missed something because I wasnt that attentive
Ash got that heartbroken by Latios not accepting him as a friend or what? Then starts questioning himself about whether he is a Pokemon Master or not? Then bables about how a Pokemon Master has to befriend all Pokemon or something? Then it fades to black and thats it?
Also
>Team Rocket's Pokemon reuinite with them(most of them)
>They set up a scheme to catch Pikachu
>They fail yet again
>They all split and abandon their Pokemon?
>They now work at the TR HQ restaurant?
>They reunite again to go after Ash and Pikachu again???
>They fail again
>They sob as their final goodbye?
Also Go or whatever his name was meets Mew few episodes ago and then he splits with Ash right?
I was honestly expecting that Ash's sendoff would be winning against Leon, returning home with the trophy as a "Pokemon Master" for being the strongest trainer but that was about 40something episodes in and then I saw the saga had 50something episodes and lost it

Yeah, sorry for the blogpost but I am genuinely confused.

It's just a typical "the adventure continues" ending you seen in a few shonen types. The explanation is that being a Pokemon Master is more than being a world champ and Ash is still looking for it, or something. Anyone who thought we'd see an older ash with a kid or something was setting themselves up for disappointment anyhow.

Well of course
But sloting in 10 episodes or so(I guess we can exclude Go's encounter with Mew) where the only thing that happens is Ash meets Brock and Misty again and they do random shit is bizzare to me

It's just send off nostalgia baiting, a victory lap more or less. I don't see the issue.

Fair I guess
I just expected for it all to end on a higher note

The show has been on so long that no ending would have been sufficient, so they went out on a non-ending
