Exactly, she is an homage to Ash, not his daughter. Named as a reference to Ash's VA, hair clip referencing the original hat (that symbol, btw, is stated to be the Pokemon League's official symbol, so it's not even specific to Ash). That's all. Saying she's his daughter also assumes the series will jump decades into the future, given Ash is still only 10 (maybe 11 by the very end) and she has to be at least the same age, so unless Ash becomes a teenage father, she'd be a newborn at the oldest in a decade and thus adventuring in two decades, at the earliest. They would also need to explain why she is in Paldea (Ash has never been there and has no reason to move there). An homage is not a biological connection.

"awesome trainer" *debatable*

According to the anime's director, Kunihiko Yuyama, Ash's departure from Pokémon is temporary. Yuyama said that Ash will return in the future. He also stated that Ash will be 10 years old forever, so this theory is a bit far-flung.

A thing to mention, for things like eye color, depending on the alles the colors can combine. With that in mind, it is possible that Riko's mother could have white pupils because her pupils aren't black. They're light blue/gray = blue/black plus white.

Riko being Ash's daughter could actually work in terms of message, especially since we have Roy. Riko is expected to be a Pokemon master like her father, and struggles with imposter syndrome and feeling like she's stuck on a predetermined path, while Roy has some conflicts with feeling like an underdog compared to Riko's lineage and expectations. Maybe in a twist of events, Riko decides not to attempt to rise to Champion status, and instead supports Roy in his journey. It could be a nice message of "you don't have to be what others want you to be" which feels like a very Pokemon-y moral.

Yeah, that was disappointing, Serena and Misty at least should have been there.

It could be Lana if you think about it. The mom and dad of Lana had the eyes meaning of course she will have the eyes but like the hair colors it depends which is more stronger.

i bet that there will be a meet and greet with ash when hes older, and the hairclip is a gift by ash, as merchandise. And Ash is Rikos hero. I hope they meet

I'm surprised he didn't talk about the new MC's bio which supports the "Ash is the father theory" Riko comes from the Kanto region and enrolls in the Paldea region's school. She also has a talent for bonding with Pokemon and only the faculty knows who her parents are and she refuses to talk about who her parents are with her peers

That was a 4chan copypasta, so don't get your hopes up there. The only official info we have is on the TV Tokio website, which just reveals Riko's name and that the story "takes place in the whole Pokémon world", presumably a similar premise to Journeys

The only reason i want her to be Ash's kid is so that all the parents who grew up watching the anime can send there own kid own a pokemon adventure, i think it would be sweet if they grew up watching Riko's dad the anime and the kid get to watch Riko.

Maybe science theory is the 4th channel?

I also have a theroy on Ash's relationship with these girls. First in the Pokemon world you are allowed to get married at age 10 (the original draft that is). Most likely before one of them gets taken by the driffloon. Second having more than one wife may not be as far fetched as you think. There has been other anime stories where a character has multiple wives (mostly the hesiki thing). And third is he going to marry them...in some ways...he already has. I believe that if a boy accidentally destroyed your bike or hit your head with a pikeball, you are destined to be his wife. Then you must accompany him on one Pokemon journey to complete the marriage. Then you must briefly depart so that you can... build nest. Serena was invited but that still counts.

@jakeetter2822

8 ай бұрын

The other elements about this theroy is... The male companions are there to be the whiteness of the courtship. Why Ash leaves a bunch of pokemon back at home base, in case one of his... girls need to borrow a pokemon for a specific task. And that Misty gave him the handkerchief that signified that the courtship is fulfilled and she will return once she... builds nest (why the others didn't do it is mostly because they did it off camera, or used some other thing).

my dad: brown eyes and hair my mom:brown eyes dark hair my older brother: dark brown hair and brown eyes me: light blue eyes and blond hair 😋😊

MatPat always finds a new theory for Ash even when he's retiring, but will show Riko and Roy probably facing off Ash near the end of their journeys.

Based on the natural interests in the anime, the only possible 2 (maybe 3) are Misty, Serena, and maybe either Dawn or Lili. Dawn appears to have another possible love interest (forgot who) and Lili is just a stretch. Serena and Misty had the best liveliness of being the mother. May also has a separate love interest. I really want it to be Serena, for personal preference.

Funniest thing is the answer to why Riko has blue hair could be because of hair dye since that has been a game option since X and Y so she could just have black hair and decided to dye it to add some style

@canineatnight6026

Жыл бұрын

Is likely the black is also a design idea. To differentiate the outside hair and inside hair. Anime is very famousfor using blue as subsitution as black

Ash being the father of Riko have a lot of great story opportunity. For example; since Ash is now considered to be one of the greatest Pokemon trainer ever/Pokemon Master, Riko could be pressured to be as great as her father but struggles coz she doesn't have the same talent as her father does. Then later on, she'll discover that Ash once was an ordinary trainer and not even special but worked hard to be as great as he is now. That could be great lesson to her that hard work can beat natural talent. But I'm fine even if she's just a nobody and doesn't have any relationships with Ash.
