"With the SM cameos, Misty is in nearly 290 episodes of the anime"

The OS with Kanto/Johto combined was 276 episodes long, but Misty wasn't in the very last episode so she's in 275 episodes.She then cameo'd in 4 full episodes in AG. She also got 4 special episodes, then that Mastermind special. For intents and purposes this is 285 episodes if you count the specials.The first SM cameo was a 2-parter, so that's 287 episodes.The second SM cameo could be anywhere from 2-4 eps or so, so she'll definitely hit 290 episodes.​Overall this may seem like a lot, but then you realize Ash/TR are in over 1000+ eps of the anime, and Brock was in around 600+ episodes of the anime. Misty is still the shortest lived classic Kanto character of the series, for obvious reasons that Brock continued into Hoenn and DP while she didn't.But she's still in the most eps of all the female leads, for obvious reasons that all the other girls leave after their gen ends and don't get as many cameos. May and Dawn were the next longest lasting companions at nearly 200 episodes if you count their cameos. All the other girls much less because they're only around 3 years.Doesn't really matter though, but it's interesting to think about.​​ via /r/pokemon https://ift.tt/2CZCoIt
