Astro Dude Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 I was gonna bring up the fact Ash had a Haunter but that was Way back in Gen 1. As to the other points, it is why I mentioned Cutiefly and Sandygast. Maybe they will be additions to his team, maybe not, who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 It's still too early to say, but maybe he might catch those two. Sandygast would be good for him though (well, when it evolves into Palossand); Ribombee is another story however. That in mind, don't think he'll even use all 18 Z-moves (let alone any special ones; maybe these when he evolves Rowlet and probably Litten). Hell, I haven't used all of them either, and I'm in post-game. I also need to remind self that this isn't Showdown, and Ash isn't exactly intelligent in terms of competitive battling or type advantage [or just chooses to ignore it], nor does the anime obey game logic.

~Faytl~ Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 This is true; We DID just come off a series where he doubled up on Dragon-types and TRIPLED on Flying-types. Whether a Pokemon balances his team or not is pretty safely not going to be a factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Dude Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 So is Mallow gonna be the new Serena? Also, there should be other trainer schools on the other islands. Maybe with the Kahunas as principals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I haven't used all of them either, and I'm in post-game.I'm thinking the same, I don't think he'll end up using all the Z-Moves either, it's something I've been thinking for a while tbph. Heck, I've hardly used Z-Moves in my playthrough, not that I have anything against using them though, I simply wanted to challenge myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevertheless, Leave it to Hala and Ilima to put Ash to this test. Kinda wonder if any of his past pokemon will make an appearance, like his Muk for instance.

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 They haven't showed any of his old 'mons last generation, so unlikely it'll happen. As for Z-moves, I've only used the Normal, Water, Psychic, Electric, Fighting, Rock and Ground ones so far, plus the special ones for Primarina and Incineroar (Pikachu's one was only used once). Everything else is still unused for now; least until I evolve stuff, but that's better saved for the game thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevertheless, Leave it to Hala and Ilima to put Ash to this test. Kinda wonder if any of his past pokemon will make an appearance, like his Muk for instance. To be fair, I had been thinking from the get go that Ash probs won't use all the Z-Moves. However I do think all of them will be featured at least once I don't think we'll see much of Ash's older pokemon this series. EDIT:20th movie is to be titled; Pokemon I Choose You. Trailer; The trailer showcases Ash and Pikachu in Pallet Town; the poster features Ho-Oh. Ash is seen in his original clothes, though the art style is slightly different. Could the movie be recapping Ash’s first adventures? It is the 20th anniversary of the movies, after all. EDIT 2:[spoiler=Thoughts on new episode]No capture happened, just a generic filler episode.

It could be, though how would you recap almost 20 seasons from the start of Ash's journey to the end of the Kalos arc in about an hour and a half?

[spoiler=spoiler]And we thought Ash would get a Litten. What if it doesn't recap the entirety of Ash's journey thus far, I'm expecting that it won't given the poster and trailer. [spoiler=Response]Honestly, the lack of capture and the lack of Rowlet being cute meant that the episode was pretty weak imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[spoiler=Response]Honestly, the lack of capture and the lack of Rowlet being cute meant that the episode was pretty weak imo. So just the first three episodes. That's fine but I can think of a few 4kids fans who won't be happy when this gets dubbed. [spoiler rebuttal]I agree. We were expecting Ash to catch Litten but the writers trolled us. As for the next episode, as it is focused on Lillie, will we get some backstory on her from her butler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flame Dragon Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 We've seen Pokemon come in an be captured much later, so that is a thing. Anyway, I'm interested in the new movie. Super different direction compared to everything else. ATM I'm expecting an abridged version of the original season, but that is a lot for a 90 minute movie.

Besides this movie will probs have a Mew distribution with its Z-Crystal. As for Lusamine, we'll just have to wait and see quite frankly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(T-minus 2 and a half hours before I can watch le episode)[spoilers about Generations]All I'll say is it'll end the same way X and Y did. As for Sun and Moon, wonder if we'll see Plumeria in a later episode and she'd be like Shark at the start of Yugioh Zexal. Plumeria: "Know what I did to the last guy that stood up to me?"Ash: "No what?"Plumeria: "I don't know... CAUSE IT NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
