Episode 34 of the collection is teasing that Ash Ketchum will be facing off against his first Galar Gym Leader this season, the fan-favorite Fighting sort Gym Leader from Pokemon Sword, Bea. While Bea had made an look within the Pokemon: Twilight Wings quick webseries, this will probably be her first full look within the anime formally.
As noticed and translated by @AnipokeFandom on Twitter, Episode 34 of Pokemon Journeys: The Series is titled [“Bea, The Lone Warrior!”] and the synopsis teases that Ash and Goh will probably be heading to Saffron City for the upcoming battle, “[Ash and Goh] are visiting the Fighting Dojo in [Saffron City] to discover a new opponent for the [World Coronation Series].
