This thread is for people who have disappeared for an extended period of time, and needs to be caught up.
I just got back from Washington D.C, and I can clearly see how much has changed.
So, tell me all the important or interesting things that has happened during my abscence.

Well probably the biggest thing you missed was the announcement of May's return to the anime.

Yeah, she's back in DP076, airing April 24 in Japan. there are now a couple of threads here discussing it.
other than that, new chaps of Dryuu's Manhunt and some great one-shots by XAOTL, so check them out.
Nothing else really springs to mind.
Good to see you back.

Well probably the biggest thing you missed was the announcement of May's return to the anime. WHAT? What is she doing in Sinnoh? Shouldn't she be doing contests in Johto? Well, anyways, we can use this as a clue. We can say May set aside her contests, temporarily, to travel abroad to Sinnoh just to see how Ash is doing. ;D ;D ;D

Haha, we all knew this'd blow your mind. It was only announced the day you left as well.

Actually we were talking about how you might react.
But it has been confirmed that she will be retuning for at least one episode. It'll be interesting to see what the exact circumstances behind it all will be. Go to some of the anime threads to get more info. Theres at least three of them devoted to it.

Well, anyways, we can use this as a clue. We can say May set aside her contests, temporarily, to travel abroad to Sinnoh just to see how Ash is doing. ;D ;D ;D We're not too sure what the exact circumstances of her return are. She reunites with Ash and Brock because she is participating in a contest held by Wallace. One thing is definite she and Dawn meet for the first time. The episode she appears in will have a tag battle to determine who will win the full course meal of this special restaurant. So we can assume she will be in episodes after this one she is first appearing in. Now, we don't know who will be tagging with who. It is most likely going to be a battle of the sexes with Ash and Brock teaming up against May and Dawn. But it could have May and Ash teaming up since they both have bottomless pits for stomachs. I wouldn't go so far as to say this is an Advanceshipping hint, because as we know so far, it isn't. Until the episode actually airs (which is in about three weeks) we won't know. It could be for us what Misty's Hoenn return was to Pokeshippers. The edge we have as Advanceshippers is that May is a coordinator whilst Misty is a Gym Leader. Leaders have to go back to their gyms so they cannot really travel or recur in the show. However, May could have finished Johto (she finished Kanto in 60 episodes) and is now travelling around Sinnoh. This can also potentially mean that May could become a recurring character like Paul, Zoey and Kenny as a rival and ally to the main group. So yes, exciting times, this must have been a massive surprise for you.

^ Only time will tell if May is finished with her contests in Johto...hopefully she is.
This is great news for my return, I'm not so annoyed at the flight delay anymore. ;D
