Brock's Shafted Pokemon: Who should come back?

Blizzard

My new lover <3
Out of all the Pokemon Brock has had removed from his roster by the writers, which one is more likely to come back for, say, the D/P saga, if he's in it? I know he has Bonsly but...

Unfortunately, we probably won't see any of his previous PKMN come back.


Onix, Geodude and Crobat were given to his brother so that he could run Pewter Gym.

Vulpix were given back to Suzie and wil definitely never ever be back.

Ludicolo is way too busy having fun with his siblings.

Yeah, ok!
How 'bout Brock let's his Foretress out of its ball to breathe once in awhile? If there's any Pokemon of his that have been shafted, it ain't his old ones.

He might as well just give his Foretress to either Ash or May, at least they'd make good use of it.

Brock has a Foretress? :eek:

Wait, what? Brock has Pokemon?! Well I'll be. Judging by the amount of decent screentime Brock actually gets (Not counting standing there, smiling/cooking/flirting/Team Rocketing) you wouldn't think he had Pokemon. :/

No one has any love for Geodude. Seriously, I don't remember it being in anything memorable. Onix was the main foe in Ash vs. Brock gym battle, Crobat had a few centered episodes including when it was a Zubat and Golbat, Foretress had its capture episode and the one where it evolved, and Ludicolo had not too bad screen time as all of its evolutions.

Vulpix didn't exactly appear much either. And they really need to remember Foretress more often.

it's most likely not gonna happen, but I'd really like it if Rokon made a comeback, evolved into a Kyuukon, and got as much, or more, screentime as Usohachi (which, thus far, seems to be the only Pokemon of Takeshi's they're actually taking an effort to shove down our throats, unfortunately).

Ludicolo and Crobat

Did anyone in the series ever give away a pokemon before anyways besides Ash giving Primeape a long time ago. Besides nah, Brock works well with Forretress, he just needs screentime.

The last time I remember it doing something that really made it stand out was in the banned Ice Cave episode. Brock battled Jessie with it, but Brock was ill and Geodude was beaten badly. It may not be a victory, but it was screentime.

I do agree though, Geodude is the most shafted of any of Brock's Pokemon. I actually want all of them to return, seeing as how none of them got very much screentime, with the exception of Vulpix. If one of them had to return to do something worthwhile, I'd say Geodude; that thing is more shafted than Forretress.

Geodude should come back but it will never happen! And out of about the 200 episodes Brock had Forrestres, we've only seen it about 25 times!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHERE IS PIDGEOT?!
its no wonder they got rid of onix - it's just way too strong for the characters to handle. thats why animé sucks most of the time - they dont like main characters' pokemon being "too strong". ugh. but yeh onix all the way! slash steelix?

Satoshi's team throughout AG would beg to differ.

Ash gave Beedrill to Casey in the Bug Catching episode.

Brock has no potential and personally I don't like him. Like Misty, he should be wrote off. He is meant to be wise but is really stupid.

Bonsly=annoying
Forretress=he doesn't love him
Marshtomp=bland and used only when there is a fire etc

If any one of Brock's pokemon should come back...Crobat.

The way I invisioned it was...
Jiroo-Hey Brock thank's for the pokemon to help me run the gym but... I want to keep a full Rock pokemon gym, so would you take your crobat?
Brock-Of course
Crobat-*I missed you* smiling:)
Brock-how about ludicolo
One of Brock's young sisters- No way Ludicolo has got to stay!

Geodude was shafted way too much as stated before. Maybe it can pull a Phanpy (come back into the group and evolve into a Graveler ^^) What I'd really love to see is:

Jiroo: Hey Brock! I caught some Pokemon of my own, so I don't need yours anymore! Oh, and the children found a Ludicolo of their own, so you can bring him back too!

Meh, I think I'm wishing too hard...

Does that really count? Ash had the Beedrill for just a few seconds. He didn't care about having a Beedrill, so he gave to a friend who did want one.

Geodude pulling a Phanpy... unlikely. It was used so little in the first place, if it were to return it would have happened by now. Meh, my opinions are dumb.
