Infernape's Future

Hopeful for Gen 8
Do you guys think Infernape will go back to Paul at the end of the league? To be honest I hope they pull a Johto and have most of his Sinnoh team go to Isshu and he can just Oak them along the way. I don't remember if Paul officially released Chimchar. Also should Ash keep Blaze a secret from Paul then when they battle he unleashes it?

I do hope that Blaze is kept a secret from Paul because it is inevitable that unless the writers want to keep the Paul rivalry alive the two will battle in the League. Although I hope it isn't a big part of the battle because Infernape has stolen too much limelight for too long. It has beaten two of the three (four in Candice's case) gym leaders Pokemon in the last four gym matches. The only gym it hasn't participated in while in Ash's care was Pastoria City for obvious reasons. Torterra really needs to train harder because falling to one 4x effective hit is pathetic.

On topic: I don't think Ash's Sinnoh team willl go to any future regions with the obvious exception of Pikachu and Gible. If Infernape goes it will be really unfair for any future teams.

!!!Paul did officially release Chimchar otherwise Ash would never have been able to catch it himself!!!

Finally Infernape will not go back to Paul, that is just ridiculous.

Infernape has had his/her (it's still unknown at this point IRC) run, let it rot at Oak's like the rest of Ash's unloved ex-teamates.
 
At the end "Glory Blaze" (/the second episode of the Tag battle mini-arc) there was a blue light/silhouette when Paul released the monkey, enough proof its off Paul's team. More proof? Paul said in "Tag were it!" he was there to see more Fire types. So Paul would have released him sooner or later, it was only with the Zangoose battle that Paul did this then-and-there.

I'd prefer to see it Oaked. If one were to go with Ash to Isshu, let it be Gible. There is more development needed for the Dragon type, which Sinnoh does not have enough time left to offer him. But that's a different subject.

Infernape I probably see getting the same situation as Sceptile, and starring at the end of the saga, before retiring at Oak's.
 
Once infernape battles and is presumably victorious against Paul (or he loses he Ash tells it it's okay showing he' snot like Paul again) he development will be pretty much done.
To Oaks!
 
I too hope they pull a Johto. Having the whole gang, Brock and Dawn included travel to Johto. Mainly because the Johto games were on the same console as the previous, much like these ones. So I would like Ash to go to Isshu with his Sinnoh team, and then have Infernape become a Charizard, and stay in some place, where it can be called upon. And the rest of the team are then dumped off at Oak's one by one, with the exception of Gible who will then grow stronger and eventually evolve into Garchomp, then leave his team to make room for another pokemon. Although, none of his Sinnoh team would fight in a gym battle. But they would all come back for the league.

Also, no, Paul released Chimchar, Ash has trained it so it is what it is now, why would it go back to the trainer who treated it badly?

I don't think he'll go back to Paul, unless Paul suddenly learns that Pokemon aren't tools and they're friends, then he might just do so. But Chimchar has managed to progress further with Ash, Ash has managed to evolve it twice, and managed to help control Infernape's blaze ability.

And considering Chimchar is like Chimchar:

- They both had a trainer that treated them poorly, and then released them when they realised how useless they were. Then Ash took them on.

- They both had control issues, Charizard wouldn't listen to Ash, and Infernape couldn't control Blaze, but both managed to suceed in the end.

And Charizard was sent to Charific Valley or something, so I can see Infernape going to an area full of Infernape. :(
 
Ash's Sinnoh Pokemon will be Oaked in exactly the same way as the Johto and Hoenn teams. There is no way Infernape will return to Paul. It is almost inevitable that Infernape's Blaze will defeat Paul's last Pokemon in the league battle - I actually expected Infernape to master Blaze during this league battle...
 
Why should Unfernape go back to Paul? It do not make any sense. It has been with Ash for a long time and it migth not ever forgive Paul for abusing it for so long.
 
LMAO, why the hell would Ash keep his Sinnoh team in Isshu? Except for Gible, they're all done development wise.

One of the major reasons the Johto saga was handled so badly is Ash's Johto Pokemon were only there for a short time and there was too much Kanto in it.

If Johto had written out Misty and Ash's Kanto Pokes at the end of Orange, Johto would have been a much better arc.
 
Paul won't take it. Infernape might be the one who will beat Pauls last pokemon but I think Paul's self-pride would make Paul not even to regret.

The Blaze is not a secret, Paul knows Chimchar had this ability since it was belong to him.
 
I don't think Paul will take back Infernape. Ash and Infernape have too much of a bond imo and I think that in the end, Paul will probably apologize to Ash and Infernape and respect them more and maybe Ash/Infernape can give Paul back the second Soothe Bell. Also, it was Ash who helped Infernape all those times when Blaze went out of control. And it was Ash who guarded Infernape against the Zangoose when it was still a Chimchar. Infernape would probably want to stay with Ash anyway but it could finally be civil now with Paul after their future battle.

Complain, complain, complain. Hey Cyber, this is not about Johto Pokemon. This is about Infernape. It will probably be oaked when Ash go to the Issu Region.
 
Paul will never get Infernape back. Did Damien get Charizard back?

And the only way I'd accept the Sinnoh team being brought to Isshu is if they were gone within like 10 episodes, which would be pointless anyway so there's no point in doing it.
 
Well if they did one thing write it would be, Ash gets new fire type Oaks Infernape, Ash gets new water type Oaks Buizel, etc but this was writers would released them like in Johto because its hard to go to the pc and exchange the pokemon so yeah i prefer Oaking all of them in the end of the region, the in traning thing is the thing i hate most i prefer them at the ranch so we see them one time atleast betwee 150-200 episodes.

Complaining about complainers is worse than the initial complaining. He was using Johto as evidence as to why infernape shouldn't be in Isshu, if you weren't to busy hating you would have noticed

I got tired of Infernape the episode it evolved from monferno, so getting oaked is no problem. There is no way Paul is going to get Infernape back unless Ash gives it to Paul, which I doubt since Infernape's love for Ash is what caused it to control blaze.

Agreed. Ash would of course let his pokemon go with whomever they want, but on Infernape's side, all the things that Ash did for it are probably too important to Infernape and thus, it'd most likely want to stick with Ash after the Paul battle.

Besides if Paul sees how much Ash and Infernape worked together to become super strong, he'll probably won't be so power hungry in terms of the pokemon he catches and he would respect that Ash/Infernape are the better team. I say that Ash and/or Infernape could give back the Soothe Bell to Paul in order to connect their relationship.
 
Have you lost your mind? Why on earth would the monkey go back to Paul? Even if Paul wanted it back, it wouldn't go. Infernape now belongs to Ash (otherwise it wouldn't be in his Pokeball in the first place) and Ash wouldn't just give it back to Paul. No way!

After Sinnoh saga is over, Ash will Oak all of his Pokemon, except for Pikachu and Gible, and will start his journey anew in Isshu
 
^Why is everyone thinking he'll keep Snorlax Mk 2 for?
 
Sure because Infernape is going to choose, Paul. The trainer that mistreated him and insulted him instead of Ash, the trainer that with patience helped him evolve completely and master Blaze.

There isn't any point in Infernape going back to Paul honestly. :)
 
Infernape is better off at Oak's lab then with Paul. Infernape has bonded with Ash and evolved under his command and so Ash has earned all right's to Infernape. It going back to Paul would be stupid and defeat the purpose of the whole Ash/Paul/Infernape story.
