Quote From: precitaDo you think these characters are just going to be one-region characters who will depart at the end of Best Wishes?
Personally I hope Dent is only a one journey character, as in as soon as Ash completes the Isshu league he returns back to work at the Gym. His character type is sorta like Tracey's and unlike Iris I really cannot see too much growth in his character.
Iris on the other hand seems to already have a backstory where she is to travel with her new Kibago and to train it well. A journey away from the Gym seems to be her only option and who better to travel with than Ash. Obviously the climax to her story will be revealing to Ash that she is the 8th gym leader, similar to how Misty 'revealed' it, by not telling Ash initially, though Misty's "secret" didn't last that long.
