all right I'm going to throw out my random predictions on what ashmi capture in the next Thirty Something episodes.
1. Ttar - With its rivalry with Duraldion I could see them giving Ash Pokemon Godzilla itself as a Ace in the Hole for when he eventually faces Raihan on top of that it's a pseudo that isn't really owned by any iconic character.
2. Kubfu- Urshifu Rapid Style- I feel like the Isle of armor is going to be primarily focused on ash and a big part of this DLC is bonding with the little bear wish I could see them allowing Ash to do perhaps he will evolve it into the rapid style which could serve as his water type for the series.
3- Grookey- Rillaboom- yes I still think this is possible and really anything is given what the series is trying to thrive on and I could see the little ape taking the role of the Junior number that eats up screen time while all of the big guys take a little bit of a backseat.
4. Purrsusker\ Obsatgoon- I feel like any one of these could happen as like a secondary Regional variant but that's more of a personal opinion rather than it being based on any fact.
I love to hear you guys' opinions or guys's opinions or wants
Guess this is my specialty and time to shine, combination of I guess both weird and logical reasoning coming in:
1) Tyranitar: It's to see if they're willing to show off the Tyranitar-Duraludon rivalry from the bio which this series has surprisingly been taking more seriously and literally to the point that it's sometimes used as episode plots. And they surprisingly still remember Ash's old Larvitar that he once looked after in that little mini-arc even after like over 20 years through a SM flashback, would be a nice continuity and reunion opportunity.
2) Kubfu/Urshifu: Future IOA arc where he trains with a Kubfu like the IOA plotline has you do with an eventual Urshifu.
-Dragapult: Yes despite Leon owning it, I'm not ruling it out. One main reason is that Dreepy's debut wasn't even a proper one where its debut was just being Dragon Darts and Drakloak still needs to debut. And another reason is the old bio argument I use at times where JN has been taking them more literally and seriously compared to previous sagas which in this case would be "it can grow stronger and evolve if it has friends to help it train" part from its bio.
3) Grookey: Yes surprisingly I'm still thinking it can go to Ash in the end tho I'll won't lose sleep over it if it doesn't. The writers will eventually need another unevolved mon to work with and fall back on considering Ash's current roster is getting close to being fully evolved again and Grookey would be a good opportunity and candidate to do so with this.
4) Dracovish: Mr Fish here is eventually going to debut and technically has been hinted to do so and would give him his first fossil mon and would give more Galar representation even if the choice is weird and stupid. There was a line in JN038 where when Go said he'll get his own fossil mon, Ash replies with "Me too" although idk if that'll ever hold true.
5) Chandelure/Blaziken/Zoroark/Golisopod/Hydreigon/Aegislash: If they're still doing the marketability/popularity trend for captures then these are some options since they're supposedly often featured in merch and/or have historical popularity (which they have at some point and some of them still do like Blaziken especially) but I'm not holding my breath for this last part here since I'd be completely insane if I just constantly insisted these could be captures and could've used the dumb outdated "this series is unpredictable" excuse which I absolute detest and refuse to use as an argument.
That's pretty much all I have in mind for the time being, and I'm still not convinced that Ash isn't getting the usual 5 new mons from a new region which would be Galar in this case hence the 4 Galar predictions. When time goes on, I'll prob update my predictions for whatever.
