Good news for all budding Pokémon trainers — we can tell you where two of the biggest names in the Pokéworld are going to be this March, with two of the voice cast from the English language dub of the iconic cartoon franchise making it to the Midwest for C2E2 2026!
Yes, both Sarah Natochenny (who voices style leader and all-around Pokémon master Ash) and Haven Burton Paschall (Serena, Harper, Florence, Ellie, multiple Slurpuffs, and so many other characters throughout the franchise) will be at the show all three days of the show, from Friday through Sunday, and appearing onstage with their own panel to display the vocal talents that made them instantly recognizable. They’ll also be signing autographs throughout the weekend.
