Summary
ThePokémonanime has occasionally come close to promise feature from the biz well in progression – one installment have anancient Jigglypuff , and such a " Paradox " Pokémonnow be inPokémon Scarlet . It ’s much less often , however , that a character in the anime predicts the future – and for Misty , her imagination foresaw not just the dealership ’s future , but her own as well .
In the Johto era episode " Enlighten Up ! " , Ash and friends call a temple dedicated to Slowpoke and are promote to mull . Unsurprisingly , the young and energetic Ash has hassle with think over , regard a vision of himself as the Johto League ’s paladin ( which , unhappily , did not come to pass ) .
Brock and Misty are two of Ash ’s near allies within Pokémon , but as it turns out , their relationship jump long before either of them met Ash .
Brock just see the girl at the temple , but Misty sees herself at a beach , look out a " Legendary Water Pokémon " with monolithic spined fins on its back breach the control surface of the body of water and swim aside . All three are berated by the Thelonious Monk for have their minds betray , but Misty ’s vision may not have been quite so off - base as it appeared .
Misty’s Mysterious “Legendary” Pokémon Could Be Mega Gyarados
When one recollect of Legendary Pokémon specifically , there are n’t any that really gibe what Misty see . However , there is another rare and powerful Pokémon that could easy be mistaken for a Legendary which does : Mega Gyarados . When a Gyarados Mega Evolves , it gain large , sail - like pentad on its back , and its body becomes more cluster up , giving it almost the same silhouette as the Pokémon in Misty ’s vision .
The episode first aired in Japan in 2002 , over a 10 beforeMega Evolution was introducedinXandY. It ’s potential this could be a coincidence , or that the animator were allowed to habituate some unfinished or rejected Pokémon design here that was eventually retread into Mega Gyarados . It ’s interesting that they would prefer that , though , rather than sneaking in a glance at Kyogre , asRubyandSapphireversions were only a few months away from release when this episode aired .
Misty’s Mega Gyarados Prophecy Makes Her a Deeper Character
As it turn out , though , this sight was a pot more personal to Misty . Misty has always been afraid of Gyarados , a awe she had to conquer in an sequence ofPokémon Chronicles , which finish in her catching a Gyarados . Misty still had that Gyarados , when she reappeared in the Sun and Moon era of the anime , and had ( in the prison term since ) , managed to develop aKey Stone and Mega Stone for Pokémon ’s Gyarados , allowing her to Mega develop it the next time she saw Ash . Though neither she nor the writers could ’ve known about this at the time , that " Legendary Water Pokémon " really did lay onwards for her .
Although she never recreates the exact pellet , it seems that Misty might have really snuck a glance at her own futurity – a future where Gyarados was n’t so scary anymore , and where she ’s a luck near to being the Water - typePokémonMaster of her dream .
