Did you know Ash had it in him to be the very best? Let us know in the comments!

Still got goosebumps from this battle. It was amazing. 25 years and counting for this moment that'll be forever go down in anime history as one of Ash's greatest moments

[sophiaisabelle]

Ash may be one of the greatest characters to ever exist in the world of animé. He certainly has the power to overthrow evil in his path.

[StacheKing]

From losing in his first league to becoming the world champion, Ash has made it to the top of the mountain after 25 years!

My childhood is now complete!!! I am so happy!!! 25 years of struggles and never giving up has led to this historic moment! Ash has finally gotten his dream! Ever since I was young and obsessed with Pokémon, I always believed that he would be a Pokémon master, and now he officially is! He really is the very best!

I was only one year old when Ash and Pikachu began their journey and as I grew up, I watched them scratch and claw their way to the top. Now, I'm twenty-six years old and I'm crying tears of joy because after all these years, they finally did it. I salute you, Ash and Pikachu. 👏🥲

Been watching this show for 22 years since childhood. While there times I lost faith in Ash, there were many moments that restored my belief in Ash achieving his goal. I’m beyond happy to see the day Ash’s dream finally come true🤧

[supersonicheroes]

After 25 years, Ash has become the very best, like no one ever was.

[jediclonekag]

It took 25 years and over 1, 000 episodes, but our boy Ash became the very best, like no one ever was.

A few Honorable Mentions to celebrate our boy:

Ash vs Lt. Surge: Pikachu's determination to beat Raichu without resorting to evolution was Pikachu's first major triumph
Ash vs Clemont: One of the best gym battles in the series against arguably Ash's most intelligent traveling companion
Ash vs Wulfric: Ash-Greninja vs Mega Abomasnow caps an amazing arc where Ash began to doubt himself after falling behind Sawyer
Ash vs Bea: After a loss and a draw to one of the best fighting trainers in the series, Mega Lucario vs G-Max Machamp was amazing

Ash you finally became a world champion!
Ash: Yes I did!
What did it cost you?
Ash: My design.

This was the Pokémon finale I wasn't expecting of actually happening. This episode felt like the spiritual ending of Ash's Journey. It went above and beyond expectations. Who knows what's next, but this was the episode I have been wanting to see over decades.

[taffy]

When Pikachu saw all of his teammates in the void, it made me nostalgic. But when Pikachu was hugged by Ash, I was bawling. It's not my dream that came true but it sure felt like it.

[TheLastGuardian]

Ash is among the best protagonists in anime because he embodies the spirit of never giving up. That spirit has now made him World Champion, well deserved W! 🏆

[keepingupwithculver]

Once Pikachu went super saiyan, I knew this would be one of the greatest episodes in anime history!

[LegoReaderhello]

I’m so happy Ash won, he’s the strongest trainer in the world, thanks to the support of his friends and Pokémon

[superiorgames]

Watching Pokemon since 2005 when I was in 1st standard and this year 2022 post graduated. This show teach many life lessons. This is not just show but emotions of many people 😭

[Glnn_n]

It took 25 years. We all waited for this moment and i cannot believe they delivered it THIS OUTSTANDING! WHAT A JOURNEY
Enough to make a grown man cry ❤️

[rexlumontad]

And yet Ash Ketchum remains ten years old forever.

[teobaldolendario]

20+ years following this show, I'm glad I'm alive to see the little Ash finally becoming the very best.

PS: already confirmed he didn't become Pokemon Master, but still a very nice end of an era.
