"Pokemon XYZ" episode 47 shows Selena is continuing to grow up. She revealed her feelings to Ash as frankly as she could. She's been traveling with Ash since the beginning of the current series. Her character is a mainstay in the previous 140 episodes of the show.

Is Selena Ready To Say Goodbye?

When her 20-year relationship with Ash grew into her first true romantic experience, avid fans of the show immediately went nuts. And then the prospect of her leaving the show naturally took them by surprise. They are not yet ready to say goodbye to Selena.

Petition To Let Selena Stay Is Going Around

Junior Lopes, a New York resident, has posted a petition on Change.org for the retention of Selena in "Pokemon XYZ" and its future episodes. His petition has already gathered 28,000 signatures. The petitioners hope to convince the show staff to let Selena have a part in the "Pokemon Sun & Moon" anime series set in the Alola region.

But The Future Of Selena Is Unclear

It is still unclear if Selena will have a part in the new series. Considering the newest trailer of "Pokemon XYZ," her fate is almost sealed. The latest trailer show Mao, a green-haired girl, is already holding the hands of Ash. Could this mean Ash has already found a new girl in his life? Perhaps Selena will suffer that same fate as Misty and Miss Brock who were major characters in the show but are not seen anymore.

The Pokemon Story Has Had Many Characters Come and Go

Perhaps Selena will suffer that same fate as Misty and Miss Brock who were major characters in the show but are not part of it anymore. When the show and story started, Ash Ketchum is just a small boy. Upon reaching 10 years old, he was given his first Pokemon by Professor Oak. This started his Pokemon journey where he met and left so many characters along the way.
