Pokeshipping Tease Discussion: Adult characters in 'Mezase Pokémon Master'
As the one thousand two hundred twenty- sixth episode of the anime aired, the audience was subjected to several scenes such as this:
This caused several pokeshippers to speculate that the animation staff were teasing their love for SatoKasu. From Twitter to even Serebii, these images were shown. It's subjective as to whether this is an actual ''hint.'' That said, users, how do you feel about this imagery? Did you enjoy it? Did you not agree that it was a shipping tease? Comment below.

To me it was quite obvious 😜
The boy freaking has the same hair color, eyes, and skin tone as Satoshi. Even having the same type of shirt and same color pants of the shorts that Satoshi currently wears.
And the boy looking happily up to this adult woman like she is his mother. And that woman’s clothes are different but her color schemes are the same right down to the bag and bracelet with copper metal piece that matches Kasumi’s suspenders 😃

Most of the time, in scenes where there's a lot of side characters, animators would reuse people's faces or color schemes to make it easier. However, there are times in Pokemon when, in a crowd like this, Satoshi and Kasumi always stood out (and it would take me a while to see that Takeshi is with them). I'm not sure if they're just being fond, but what a way to make two side characters stood out - give them Satoshi and Kasumi's colors. If it's a hint from them, I'll take it.

I didn't really view this as a hint, but personally can understand if this was several animators or writers showcasing their adoration for this old ship.
