Pocket Monsters (2019) Speculation Thread

[ShadowForce720]

Viewers could already tell the difference between Ash's and Iris's Dragonite through their personalities, as Iris's is aggressive and confrontational while Ash's has a personality more in line with how Dragonite is usually portrayed. Also, Lance did not even use his Dragonite in Episode 12, with him using his Red Gyarados instead.

And they can easily make a way to tell the difference between Ash’s and Diantha’s Gardevoir. As for Lance, if Ash battles him in the Master Class chances are there battle will be more then a 1vs1 meaning it would be pretty likely that Lance would use his own Dragonite in that battle considering it’s strong association with him.

You are forgetting they can easily keep Diantha's Gardevoirs necklace with the Mega Stone.

Hi , I'm new here

Welcome in Serebii forum !

Except Ash isn't likely to battle any of them, while he is likely to battle Diantha in the Master Class. If he's getting a Gardevoir, it would have to be a Shiny one so that viewers could tell which one belongs to Ash and which one belongs to Diantha.

cough she has Mega Keystone cough
Also yet i want Ash catch Gardevoir for one reason - battle with Rinto's Gallade.

Reserves are returning. So chsrizard wont cime back because leon has one?

 

[Zoruagible]

That's Diantha's ace, and she might be battling Ash at some point this saga.

Except that Gengar is Allister's ace and Ash is likely gonna battle him

That logic doesn't work, especially since we got Dragonite vs Dragonite and maybe Mega Lucario vs Mega Lucario
Besides there's nothing that says Ash is obligated to use Gardevoir against hers, I think it should be Greninja so he can redeem himself. That and the anime hyped it up, anyone other than Greninja would be an annoyance.

Also in the games Diantha actually owns the same Pokemon Ash himself owns from his Kalos journey(Hawlucha/Goodra), the only exceptions being the two fossils. And again he has Dragonite, likely gonna be battling Lance whose only Pokemon other than Gyarados is a Dragonite.

You can just say you don't want it to happen

I don't think that Ash is battling Allister. I think that Allister will be a rival for Gou.

How? Allister is a Ghost type gym leader not a collector or researcher

Honestly given that they had Ash fight Bea(a fighting type specialist and gym leader) with his two fighting type Pokémon in his first battle against her, and now where getting Ash vs Iris and him using two Dragon type Pokémon against her.

At this point I wouldn’t be that surprised if if the writers or people in charged of the anime are planning to have Ash catch at least one more Ghost type so that he can battle Allister in a Ghost battle with them both using Ghost type Pokémon.

Nah..i mean he fought visquez wirh only one matching type, and korrina without any matchng types.... so who knows it is possible but i would say less likely. But i sure do think we ll see him battle alistair.

Since Bea is a rival to Ash I expect Allister to be a rival to Gou. I think that he won't be a Gym Leader at all, and instead someone who seeks to catch them all like Gou.

Except there is nothing that even current suggest or hints at this being the case.

So when was it confirmed goh catch tyranitar

not confirmed, that was joke.

It's something I expect based on Bea's portrayal as a rival of Ash. It would be weird to give him a rivalry with both Stow-on-Side Gym Leaders.

 

[TomRC121991]

I was just saw a new toy yesterday that Absol on Ash blue team so that means he's catching it.

In Black and White series Ash was fighting already with three gym leaders in one match.

No, it wouldn’t, I mean heck they had no problem with him battling Cilan and his brothers for his 1st badge in BW. Also in the current series they didn’t have any problems with him fighting two fighting type gym leaders.

Goh literally just caught Absol in today’s episode, so I’m not sure why your acting like Goh getting Absol in episode 64 isn’t confirmed at this point, when the episode has already aired and showed him catching Absol.
