Have Brock's chances of a cameo in BW dwindled?

[CyberCubed]

With BW rapidly ending within about 7 months, and most of the rest of BW being focused on N and Team Plasma, do you think Brock's chances of getting a cameo like Dawn have dwindled?

The only time I can see Brock appearing now is maybe for 1 episode at Pallet Town at the very end. I really just don't see them having Brock appear in Unova when we only have like 35 episodes left.

The better question is: Do people even care enough about Brock to warrant him a cameo?

[Pepsi_Plunge]

None was expecting him to appear unless we get a lab episode.

Hey a Cyber thread.

[BlueDragonfangirl]

If he was going to be in the N arc you'd think he'd be on the poster like Dawn was, I don't think thats going to happen.
If they do a party type episode that has all of Ash's friends including Brock at the end of the series, I could see it maybe.

[pokemonsquared]

He already got one.

All a cameo is is a brief showing of the character. If we got 2 seconds of gary watching the unova league. that would be a cameo

There are more Brock fans around than you think there are..

I really wanted him to get a cameo, but it seems they used Dawn's memories of him so that they didn't have to give him his own appearance..

I was thinking of that too. Its very similar to the way the Misty lure was brought up back in DP without Misty herself appearing.

At least Brock did get a special at Pewter Gym.

Oh, I know there are, and most of them (like 98%) are Gen1 fans who are clearly not the target audience of the show anymore.

I wonder if any kids who grew up with DP wound up really liking Brock.

[Super-Staff]

I've hung around kids, mostly at my old job, during that time and they tended to like Ash more than Dawn and Brock. It seems that amongst the older fanbase, people like Dawn and Ash (and side characters). I've very rarely seen people being huge fans of Brock, though.

[BurningSociety12345543210]

I don't care.

Also he had two cameos.

Really? I would think kids would have liked Dawn the best of the DP trio. Interesting.

I'd love Brock to make an appearance and I agree that when Ash returns to Kanto, that would be a good time.

Dawn had a reason to come to Unova. World Tournament due to Cynthia who seems to travel regions quite lot. Brock has his doctor goals so he had no reason to go to the PWT. If anything he might be studying at Ash's house for some reason to be close to Oak who might help him and they meet for a bit.

I thought little girls would like Dawn, too, but they usually said Ash was their favorite. Go figure.

Yes they do.

Agreed.

Unfortunately it seems so.

Dawn had a reason to come to Unova.

Actually, no she didn't.

The writers made an excuse for her to return and this time it was very obvious. Same with Misty. May had a reason as contests were in Sinnoh.

[Super-Staff]

Yes they do.

Yeah, like, a couple? Not enough to make the writers think "HARK! WE MUST BRING BROCK BACK FOR A CAMEO! HIS INSANE FANBASE IS DEMANDING SO!" ...Yeah.

Like Haunter said no she didn't, Haruka was well done since it was a Coordinator coming to a special contest, now Hikari comes from Hoenn out of nowhere to do a battling tournament that just by coincidence Satoshi will also take part in, thats as convinient as her whole "I get Togekiss!" episode.

[Bluelatios*]

There has been no evidence for or against Brock getting a cameo, hence this thread is speculation without evidence. Besides, the answer is simple; why do just a cameo instead of fixing up the character so even more people would want an official return?

[Eneci]

He can appear in the episode when Ash comes home. And meet Cilan and iris zhere.

[Haunter227]

Yeah, like, a couple?

A couple million umadbro

That's not what you initially questioned though, you questioned whether people care and quite frankly yes enough people do which is evidently seen in the anime spoilers if you actually knew what you was talking about.

p.s There are hundreds of things in the anime that fans love but the writers don't always bring them back, Brock probably won't be any different.
