By quote someone who posted them and change the number to the pokemon I want it to be, what do you mean by that?

Exactly what you just said lol. For example, go up to where I posted my prediction with the sprites, click "reply with quote" and you'll see the pokemon's pokedex numbers in the url. Change those numbers into different pokedex numbers and different pokemon will show up.

I support everything but another Drapion for the semi final battle. I simply think it is unnecessary since Paul showcased a very powerful one. How about Elektross? I think that could be the Drapion of this Saga's Pokemon league.
 

ShinyCharyZard

Too old for your rubbish..
You sound threatened by the possibility of Oshawott turning out to be the main starter for Unova and Ash's strongest water type...

That's actually not the case.. its actually more because I don't live in a dream world where elephants are pink and fluffy and have therefore realised that Oshawott is very unlikely to evolve :)

Also the reason for me wanting it to have minimal screentime is just because I hate the design of Samurott, have done ever since the moment its artwork was first released.. plus in the movie they did a terrible job of animating it, so its not like they can even make it grow on me like they did with Krokorok.

IMO, Seismitoad is going to be our first fully evolved Water type since Kingler.. and there won't be a fully evolved water starter until one appears who's first stage isn't easy to market to death.
 

Joltik-Kid

Careful? Where's the fun in that?

So never then? Because Totodile already happened
 

Almighty Zard

He has returned.
^dude most of us know jouto's not the best example to fall back on for reliability, and the only reason cyndaquil got to come back and evolve at all was because of HG/SS

Ironically Brock's Mudkip did evolve in the end and to date is the only water starter owned by a main cast member to evolve.

Regardless, as i've said before what happens to the starters is in the writers hands, predicting as we want might be fun, but in the end we are not in charge of what happens.
 

ShinyCharyZard

Too old for your rubbish..
Totodile was a lot more marketable than either of its later forms, plus we all know the Johto team didn't stand a chance because they were still set in their Kanto ways.
 

Almighty Zard

He has returned.
i just hope we don't get a charmeleon/sceptile repeat if Oshawott does evolve, Piplup trolling him and being rejected lately is going to mess his head up...

I forgot about that. Also don't forget that he knows Trip's Serperior and Bianca's Emboar. If he gets taunted by Serperior (for example) for being a weakling or something, that can also mess with his head.

Well, he knows Trip's Serperior anyway. Bianca's Emboar could not possibly be the same one we saw at Juniper's lab

Imma Axew a question
http://www.spriters-resource.com/ds/pkmnbnw2/index.html guys I just found some clear sprites of the new characters in BW2. The pink haired girl intrigues me... I hope she'll become a main character in the anime. She's really pretty:D. Iris looks really pretty in her outfit too! They need to make more tech-esque pokemon. They would be perfect for Achroma lol. I could defiantely see Banjiro becoming a semi main character, and a great rival for ash. Do you guys think those robot things will ever become pokemon? none of this has anything to do with the anime, so I'll post some more team predictionsXD

Achroma-I'm not sure if I want him to be a team plasma member or be a traveling professor...
Klink
Magnezone

N-Mysterious trainer that befriends ash. Then he asks Ash and co. to liberate their pokemon. Ash and co. decline and N is enraged, he unleashes the wrath of his pokemon on Ash.
Zoroark
Klinklang
Metagross
Aggron
Seviper
Spiritomb

whateverD:

That sounds like a pretty big possibility. In which case, he will be using mostly gen 1-4 pokes if he is going to be similar to his in-game team and in the spirit of older gen pokes returning. In which case makes him unlikely to have Samurott so...

Pikachu-Done
Unfezant-Done
Oshawott-He deserves to evolve. He's marketable enough for that to happen.
Emboar-Charizard and Infernape are fully evolved so why not Pignite?
Snivy-I can see her evolve only once.
Scraggy-Can't see him evolving. Maybe in the next region.
Leavanny-Done
Seismitoad-C'mon writers, give Ash's water-types a chance to evolve. You did that with Kingler.
Boldore-From Iwane said, Boldore evolving isn't gonna happen.
Krookodile-Confirmed
Onix-Ash states in the preview that he's going to catch one, but with the new opening being released, it's most likely not going to happen, but we'll see.

Samurott for Ash! If the writers are trying to make this gen anything like Sinnoh, then it would make sense for him to get Samurott cuz of Serperior and Emboar being owned by Trip and Bianca. You know, all final evolution starters would be nice too, but I'll accept all middle staged starters or 1 main starter and 2 middle staged starters. Still hopeful in Dewott/Samurott :)

After the update, I've got me some ideas

Main characters​

Ash Ketchum, wants to Catchem All​
I find it very hard to believe he's going to get more Pokemon, given his team is already bursting. But for evolutions...


Krookodile-Confirmed in the trailers
Crawdaunt-After so long, Ash has finally gotten a Dark type. Why not get another?
Gabite-Never got to evolve in Sinnoh. I think it should

Predicted spot in the Unova Leauge-Top 2. Defeated by N.

Well, okay, Ash can have some more Pokemon. Might as well add new types.



Drifblim-Quite a unique Pokemon, that can serve as his new Flying type.
Metang-Because no-one will see it coming. Plus Metang is beast.

Iris. Her hair rivals Kemo in personality​
Not sure what the revelation of her being the Champion will do. Here are some ideas


Fraxure-Axew wants to evolve. It would help pave way to other Pokemon
Deino and Lairon-A tie to the new game. Plus Deino is ADORABLE
Seviper-Its in the Dragon egg group, and it looks just plain awesome

Cilan, sexy boy and probably a ninja​
If we're going by the "Stration Trio are the Shadow Triad" theory, the potential appearance of Team Plasma could play a huge part in Cilan's actions


Pansage-It's basically Cilan's Pikachu, so I doubt it will evolve
Zangoose-As a rival to Iris' Seviper.
Pawniward and Absol-If we're going by the Shadow Triad theory...

Rivals​

Trip, aka Paul if he wasn't a d-bag​



Unova Leauge Position-Top 4, beaten by Ash

Bianca, the Queen of Moe​


Minicco-Too adorable to evolve
Jellicent-A female counterpart to Trip's. I don't see Ash getting one, so I gave it to Bianca
Musharna-It was her signature Pokemon in the games. Why hasn't it appeared yet?!
Mandibuzz-No real reason, just thought it would be a surprise

Unova Leauge rank-Top 8/16, beaten by Trip

Burgundy, proof that Cilan is evil​
We all know what Cilan did to her. Memes never lie. And here are the Pokemon she'll get for her revenge


Banette-What better Pokemon to get her revenge than the living personification of vengeance itself?
Heatmor-Fire Pokemon to counter Cilan's Grass status.

Georgia the Dragonbuster​


Vibrava-Know thy enemy, of course. Plus I'm a huge fan of this Pokemon
Walrein-Any Ice type would work. I chose this to be the bulk of her team

Team Rocket's rocking​

Jessie, the Princess of Crime​
Now that old Pokemon are part of Unova, she can use her stored Pokemon. And I can see others


Eelektrik-It's a staple for Jessie to use serpentine Pokemon. And Eelektrik is the closest Unova has. Plus the irony of using an Electric type will be delicious

James, the Prince of Crime​


Cofagrigus-If I'm going to see Ghetsis suffer a fate worse than death, we need Yamask to be able to mummify him
Maractus-Like Eelektrik, its a staple for James to have painful Grass types

Giovanni. A man so epic he knocked out Blissey in one punch.​

As we approach something big, I can see Giovanni getting into the fight. Here are his Pokemanz


Being a Ground type trainer, he's brought a whole bunch of Ground types now seen in Unova. As for Meloetta, someone with as much power as Giovanni isn't going to be stopped by some twerps. WHAM! Team Rocket as a whole becomes a much grander threat

Team Plasma​

N Harmonia, sex symbol of the Pokemon universe​
Keep your pants on fangirls, and listen to this


Akuroma. We knew you were evil since the start​


Ghetsis Harmonia, the most evil man in all of Pokemon​


Yeah...we're screwed

Onix-Ash states in the preview that he's going to catch one, but with the new opening being released, it's most likely not going to happen, but we'll see.
Magnemite-In that preview of the Dragonite episode, it's floating next to Ash and Pikachu, but it's most likely not his, but let's see.

Oshawott is marketable enough to evolve?
I think it's marketable enough to not evolve...
Onix is practically confirmed not to be caught due to the opening :p
And the writers probably have a refusal to give Ash a second electric type.
I reckon the Magnemite is like Jigglypuff.. it just follows them.

That sounds like a pretty big possibility. In which case, he will be using mostly gen 1-4 pokes if he is going to be similar to his in-game team and in the spirit of older gen pokes returning. In which case makes him unlikely to have Samurott so...
When has anyone had their entire in-game team?
If it is him, he could have Samurott and 5 old gen pokes.
Or this rival might not be anyone that shows up in the games at all. (Tyson, Harrison, Morrison... so many "son's")
I can't find a solid reason for Oshawott to evolve all the way to Samurott.
"To break the curse" is not a solid reason.
Samarott may be marketable, but not as marketable as Oshawott (That car proves it)
So if you want to convince people Oshawott can reach Samurott, come up with a solid reason. Oshawott's issues were resolved (Aqua Jet) and if he evolved he gets 2 scalchops so it won't solve the issue of fighting without it...

Pignite: The Tepig line isn't as marketable as the others, so the writers can do whatever with it, so if they make it fully evolve they can show Ash is developing, getting stronger, etc.

The merchandise: The opening screwed up my theory of the merchandise affecting the anime, but I'm gonna still follow it for now...

Since they made Oshawott so marketable now, they wouldn't need to keep it the same in the anime. Ash doesn't need an Oshawott for them to sell Oshawott merchandise.

Shraeder already beat me to what I was going to say. Besides, I'm not going to waste my time trying to convince you and the other doubters. Just be prepared to hear me rub it in if it happens.
