Iris’ voice actor has broken her silence over the character’s return to the Pokemon anime franchise in a future episode of Pokemon Journeys: The Series. When the anime showed off the third iteration of its opening theme sequence, there were several major teases about what was going to come in the next episodes. One of the biggest teases coming out of this was the return of Iris, who was Ash Ketchum’s companion during the Black and White era of the anime. Though her return was not really set in stone just yet, the series has officially confirmed that Iris will be returning in full.
