That sounds almost too good to be true, although the fact that Aceburn is Gou's mascot makes me think that this scenario would be doomed before it even happens since I doubt that the writers would have Messon develop well as long as Aceburn's around to get most of the screen-time on that team.Dzentelmen said:
There's no such thing as "seasons" outside of whatever the dubbers decide the dub should be split into, and the dub has not split PM2019 into anything yet.
Dub "season" 2 starts whenever the dub says it starts, it's not really any more complicated than that. These "seasons" don't actually exist in the actual show.

I see. Thanks for the confirmation
Me neither. Goh captures don't count, since they aren't team changes either. I don't expect team changes until March at its earliest.

That's what I think as well.
My take: Considering how far in advance they make the episodes, I think that right after they finish the two-parter, they got word on BW2 (with all the changes) and that's why everything post those episodes didn't have continue that plot in some way: the staff had to come back to square one and rethink everything.
People like to blame on OLM and its staff for everything they didn't like on BW but the production staff certainly had to deal with some very convoluted decisions from Game Freak.
GF wanted those games to be a "relaunch" as in a fresh start, to the point that we could only get the new pokémon (initially) which prompted the anime to have to make itself look a fresh start as well. Then, after they planned on how they were going to use TP, GF just changes everything by making a sequel.

Yeah, I think Ash's final team change this year was Riolu evolving.

Yeah, and I have no idea what his next team change will be.

If any of the sagas ever get a chance of getting a reboot, the BW saga certainly needs to be the one getting it cause dear lord it was downright disgraceful and the biggest waste of opportunity. Could’ve potentially reached DP levels of greatness due to BW’s storyline alone and the beginning certainly has shown that but ofc Mother Nature just had to ruin everything and the BW2 games didn’t help the case either.

The only team change in December for Ash I see is Dracovish. It and Suicune need episodes that could be before the new Year

I also would see this as a missed opportunity considering the “world tour” theme. Have Ash own more popular and marketable mons from all over and you’ll continue to be rolling in dough soon after. Win-win for fans and win-win for marketers.

I disagree with this reasoning, mainly because as long as Lucario's around, it's not as if those other Pokemon's futures under Satoshi's care would look that much brighter than if Gou ended up with them, especially if they'd just end up like Satoshi's Gangar and Kamonegi. Bangiras in particular has appeared so often throughout the series that it isn't really in dire need of more screen-time anyway from my viewpoint, so the fact that it's cited as a species that should be featured more often in the cast itself is questionable to me.Master Pikachu 11 said:

Well looking at the Ice types that Ash and Goh don’t already own these would be the options for Ash to choose from:
Cloyster
Smoochum/Jynx
Articuno
Sneasel/Weavile
Swinub/Piloswine/Mamoswine
Delibird
Spheal/Sealeo/Walrein
Regice
Snover/Abomasnow
Glaceon
Froslass
Vanillite/Vanillish/Vanilluxe
Cubchoo/Beartic
Cryogonal
Bergmite/Avalugg
Crabominable
Alolan Sandshrew/Alolan Sandslash
Alolan Vulpix/Alolan Ninetales
Galarian Mr.Mime/Mr.Rime
Galarian Darumaka/Galarian Darmanitan
Snom/Frosmoth
Eiscue
Arctozolt
Arctovish
Glastrier
Also Calyrex in it’s Ice Rider form and Rotom in it’s Rotom Frost form as well as Castform in it’s Snowy form are all either part or pure Ice types.

Jynx, A-Vulpix line and G-Mr. Mime line won't be caught by Ash for obvious reasons. The only possible ice type captures for Ash are:
Glaceon
Weavile
Abomasnow
G-Darmanitan
Arctozolt
Frosmoth
Eiscue

I wouldn’t say those are the only possible Ice types for Ash because most of the other options can work as well.

Like what? Beartic? Cloyster? I doubt it since they're not popular.

Alolan Sandslash, Avalugg, Mamoswine, Vanillish to name a few, Beartic, and Cloyster would also work.
Plus where in a series where Ash’s 1st capture was a Dragonite he caught in episode 10, and then later after he caught Riolu he caught a Galarian Farfetch’d a pure fighting type Pokémon even though he had Riolu.
So I don’t think one can just assuming that just because a Pokémon isn’t as popular as some others that Ash wouldn’t be able to still catch it.
At this point we don’t really know what his next capture is going to be. I mean let’s be realistic not that many people really predicted that Ash’s current team would look like it currently does back when this series first started.
