Thanks for your thoughts about my Swadloon scenario. I will probably do this for Ash's other 7 Pokemon soon.
Technically, I think someone else mentioned it here a few/several months back, but, meh`.
I tried to say it nicely a long time ago and another person said it too but you just ignored us "Ash getting Deerling is very unlikely" could he get one sure But will he? Probably not, I honestly don't care if he gets one or not I'm just saying that it's highly unlikely I'm not saying that it's a fact I'm just saying what I think.
Same could be said with other Pokemon, that's just your opinion. The Poliwag situation could have happened again, so saying that it's very unlikely is your opinion, but now that an episode focused on it it's evolved form, I think it's very unlikely, assuming Poliwag never had an episode focused on it before Misty got it, which I don't think there was.
You pretty much said it like it was a fact, so that's why I said it.
Alright, here's my prediction, why not.
Ash

I rarely say no to a prediction since we don't know how things will go.
But, about 20 evolutions on the main cast? Seriously?
If they're not going to be spaced out, there will be at least a lot of evolutions spammed close to each other and come on, I doubt that will happen.
Why is Chandelure in the Christmas Advertisement too
Don't know, but it's outlined in white and it does seem out of place, so it might not go to the main cast.
Pikachu: He is truely going to be the antagonist of the series and try to slay Ash
Unfezant: Regional Bird
Serperior: Fast Pokemon that will work to Ash's Style
Emboar: Fire Fighting will be hard for Ash to adjust to slowness
Samurott: Looks like the main Starter
Scrafty: To get rid of Gothia's Crush it will evolve so it can move on
Levanny: IDK it should have been a Levanny by now maybe when it stops rotting we can get development
Seismitoad: Full Power for the League
Gigalith: Its there why not evolve Trade Evolution has never been done it is perfect chance
Chandelure: I just see it happening with it being in Halloween and Christmas Advertisements
Sigilyph: Strong Psychic type that Puzzles Ash
Braviary: Last Capture will be a stong edition to the league
Flygon: Before the League ends it will be a present from Morimoto to Ash for doing so well he uses it in final battle against Trip
All of them evolving? Like I said before, I doubt it. Chandelure seems a bit out of place and the halloween things don't really mean much, unless there are some best wishes labels.
Puzzles Ash? What the hell does that mean? Everytime Ash sees it, Ash is confused over it's psychic abilities? Huh?
I'd rather Braviary with Iris personally and I don't want another flying type for Ash, especially considering the one he has right now isn't getting much attention, unless it miraculously gets a lot of attention that outweighs it's lack of attention.
Why Morimoto? And do you mind expanding why Morimoto appears and gives Ash a present, especially a Pokemon as the present.
My predictions for Everyone with Explanations in the spoiler tags.
Iris
[spoil]Iris catches a Karrablast and she and Bianca do a trade and trade back. Reflecting the fact that they are friends in the game as well. Escavalier makes a friendly rivalry with Excadrill.
Drayden seeing Axew's growth into Fraxure-He encharges iris with a pokemon egg that hatches into a Deino later on.[/spoil]
Cilan
[spoil]Lillipup is given to him by Chili after the daycare donated the three Lillipup to Striaton Gym.
Swanna, caught as a Ducklett. Cilan's graceful female flyer.[/spoil]
James
[spoil]James like having small pokemon. Klink seems random but if anyone is going to showcase a member James seems like the most likely.[/spoil]
Iris? Seriously, I'm personally annoyed enough with the thought of the evolution of two Pokemon that need to be traded with each other, when it just seems like like a gimmick evolution that is pushed to look important, especially if two main characters own the Pokemon. But anyway, my main beef is with that second part. It befriends Excadrill, we get it, the start of their names sound a like, but why exactly do they develop a friendly rivalry?
I agree with Cilan's prediction, so no beef there.
James doesn't always have small Pokemon with him and guess what, he always had a Pokemon that hugged/blinded him before, that hasn't happened with Yamask and Yamask is sort of small already. So I ask, why is Klink most likely going to go to James?
It's not exactly wishful thinking. She's been on a lot of merchandise, and the upcoming one is hanging around Ash's Scraggy, and her trainer has only been seen talking with Ash.
So what? Buneary showed an interest in ASH'S Pikachu and Ash ever fought over Dawn about getting it and look who got Buneary? A hint, it wasn't Ash.
And in an episode that sort of focus on Ash, it'd be weird if it didn't at least mention that Ash likes Gothita or that he asks if he can keep Gothita, if he does get it.
And she's talking to Ash because Ash is the owner of Scraggy, if Iris was, she'd be talking to Iris. Iris could still think it's cute like she did in BW038 and she could show hints at her having it.
By the end of BW:
Ash:
Pikachu (duh)
Serperior (His last two Grass starters have evolved fully, so this one's not out of the question. Not to mention, Serperior as a species is just plain badass)
Emboar (More or less wishful thinking, as I love Emboar)
Dewott (I just can't see Oshawott evolving all the way, yet I really want it to break the Water starter non-evolving curse)
Unfezant (She'll evolve like the birds before her. I'd like to see her evolve in the middle of a Pokeringer competition against Trip's male Unfezant, then beat the crap out of Trip's Unfezant, as the Pokedex says that female Unfezant are better at flying than the males)
Scrafty (One of the most badass Pokemon Unova has to offer, and Ash has its pre-evo already. I'm just praying for the writers to make this happen)
Leavanny (Has a close bond with Ash, no reason it shouldn't evolve. Well, OK, lack of screentime is a pretty darn compelling reason, but aside from that...)
Conkeldurr (Oh, come on. Ash has a Roggenrola. Trip has a Gurdurr. The two trainers are rivals. I can smell this trade coming a mile away. I could see this being an entire episode; at some point following Roggenrola's inevitable evolution, Ash uses Boldore against Trip's Gurdurr. After the battle, Trip reveals that both of them evolve by being traded. Boldore and Gurdurr are both up for being traded for evolution, and so it happens. But before they can trade back, Team Rocket interrupts and does something, forcing Ash to team up with Conkeldurr, and Trip with Gigalith, in order to take down Team Rocket. After realizing how well they work with each other's Pokemon, they decide to make the trade permanent)
Seismitoad (I can imagine it evolving)
Garbodor (Ash might catch it in next week's episode. Muk 2.0 anyone? Granted, the original Muk could stand to be used a bit more, but still, I can easily picture Ash with a Garbodor)
Burgundy:
Samurott (She'll probably force it to evolve if necessary, wanting to take no chances against Cilan)
Sawsbuck (Has it already)
Stoutland (See Sawsbuck)
Simisear (Specifically to counter Pansage/Simisage)
Purrloin (She'll learn of Cilan's fear of Purrloin, mark my words)
*I know the whole Pokeringer competition has been done to death in the past, but you gotta admit, it would all fall into place perfectly like this.
Tepig and Snivy fully evolving, but Oshawott evolved once? I know you think Serperior is awesome and you like Emboar, but come on, Oshawott is the one getting more fights, attention, development and screen time. Unles s it refuses to evolve(Which Snivy and Tepig could also), I see no reason for it to not pass Snivy and Tepig in evolutions, assuming they don't all fully evolve.
Pokeringer again? When Ash could just have Tranquill battle Sykla's Unfezant. If not, something original, but I hope that Tranquill doesn't evolve in a Pokeringer competition.
I feel like yelling at how much I hope they don't trade once. Just because they work together just to stop Team Rocket, would that really cancel out the bonds they built, especially if it happens a long time from now. If a trade happens, I hope to Arceus that it isn't permanent.
Seismitoad evolving and Oshawott only evolving once, I also pray to Arceus that it doesn't happen.
I don't think that's a reason for him to get Garbodor and it doesn't seem like an important part of the episode so it could be a bit random.
I actually wouldn't mind Burgundy having Simisear, when/if they battle again, Burgundy could have the upper hand.
Ash

Pikachu-Will evolve soon.....not
Unfezant-will face off against trips
Samurott- will fully evolve and be the main starter
Pignite- will at least evolve once
Servine- Will evolve towards the 7th or 8th gym
Scrafty-will evolve to show growth similar to gliscor
Leavanny-will evolve soon.
Palpitoad-staying the same if oshawott evolves fully
Gigalith-Trade Evolution.
Golurk- Ash's first Ghost type. Trip has two ghost types, so this allows ash to showcase the golett line. Luke showed golett, so this can allow ash to evolve golett and show off golurk.
Purrloin- I think scraggy/scrafty will be used as a fighting type, so this can be his dark type.
Klang- Could be a funny steel type to watch
Luke could also show off Golurk as well and I wouldn't mind Klang with Ash.
Gothita hasn't been seen interacting with Iris at all in the preview. Merchandise has been misleading before, and pokemon have helped other trainers before (Max and Corphish, Brock and Buneary, Misty and Pikachu, Bulbasaur and Vulpix, etc.)
Palpitoad didn't interact with Ash in the preview, nor did Stunfisk interact with Cilan.
But before you said that it wasn't wishful thinking and one of your reasonings was the merchandise and now it's misleading, seems like you're just biased against Iris getting it.
Yeah, but why the heck does Gothorita need to help Iris and why is Iris need to be with Gothorita?
