So Diamond and Pearl series will commence on september the 9th. The darkrai episode will be on the 26th so there is time for two more episodes my guess is that it will be like ash and paul's battle over three episodes. I think ash will battle the darkrai trainer for two and a half episodes then the last half will be ash leaving. Also apparently the new series might be start on september 23. What i want to ask you is how exactly will it end what are your opinions on how the team will break up?
