Remember the episode when Ash told his released butterfree. “I tell the others that your taking a trip you will come back soon” Anyone bothered by that line now. Ash had few pokemon that have a few Pokémon that have been abandon such as Charmander and Squirtle. Bulbasaur had a moment that he thought Ash had abandoned them when they were shipwrecked. Sometime i feel that i need rewatch this series again in sub if the message is the same. remember the episode Pokemon movie with mew. After watching review found out the message is far different. Does that mean I have to watch the series again to see the changes?

I understand the send off but how it was done is the question.
