Pocket Monsters (2019) Speculation Thread

Welcome to the new edition of the Next Pokémon thread, where you can share your theories on which Pokémon might be caught, evolved or released by the characters starring in the new Pocket Monsters anime. Of course, you can also speculate what personalities/roles the Pokémon might have.

Please mind the following:


  • Don't diss or mock others if their predictions differ from yours. If you think someone's speculation is unlikely to happen, too farfetched or flat-out impossible, you can debate with them, but please stay respectful at all times.
  • If you suspect that someone's trolling, please contact a mod via PM or the report function instead of replying to that person.
  • Please don't use huge and/or animated sprites for your team speculation posts.
  • PLEASE AVOID HUGE WALLS OF TEXT! If your post is very big, please consider using spoiler tags or taking out sprites if you're using any.

Please be considerate to fellow members. Thanks!

So it's just the two of them then? If so fine with me as a duo is pretty exciting.

Also I guess this doesn't quite rule out the reboot theory

Depends on who's doing what if ash is going to galar to gyms I see him getting a full team. Probably the other 2 starter's and hopefully corviknight

If he travels with Gou then I don't think he will catch much. Instead rotating his old pokes and training them

As for Gou. Theoretically he should be catching everything he comes across but as for what he will keep on his main team no idea. But it would be cool if he had something from every region

Well based on the premise I could see Ash catching Pokemon from previous gens, but we will have to wait and see. Still hope he gets Sobble.

As for Go the possibilities are endless

I was so looking forward to the "Are you a boy or girl" memes coming from Go. We still don't have enough.

Here comes the meltdown that Ash is 10 again...

I don't get why people are obsessed with his age to the point they outright melt down

In terms of Ash using older Pokemon, I can only see him catching Pokemon from Gens 2 and 4 in order to promote hypothetical future remakes of those games.

Anyone else thinks gous dream might change early on? Instead of catching every Pokémon he decides to befriend them all instead.

We could get an early ep where he catches something but releases it after realising he would be taking it from it's friends/family so he decides to befriend everything instead

Can we please get the older, old forum back?
It might refer to the events of M20, if this follows the reboot movie version of Ash.

I'm getting that vibe as well.. Paired with the logo similarities to the reboot-movies. Guess Sun and Moon was the end for OG-Ash.

I am interested to know how will ash and gou will meet each other, and since gou is deutraganist i hope his story and personality is original unlike with dawn whose story and personality was copied from OS ash.

I really don't know what they are going to do with Ash's team. In the past, his team has mainly been new Pokemon from the newest generation. But since they don't seem to be focused on Galar alone, he may get some older Pokemon.

If this is truly a reboot, I am pretty sure he will get the Kanto trio again.

I could see gou visiting pallet town while ash is there and ash deciding to acompany him

I can see Ash getting Piplup instead of a Galar starter if they really want to promote hypothetical Sinnoh remakes.
