I still think that either will catch a Dewpider/Araquanid or get some kind of wildcard like a Mudbray/Mudsdale or the Jangmo-o line. And I'm still thinking that Ash will get a Salandit/Salazzle as it is one of the fastest pokemon in the Alola region and it does not matter if its used by Team Skull as Ash has used pokemon owned by evil team members.

Actually no, not really if you look at it for the most part he hasn't used pokemon owned by the evil team and even in the cases where he has it was where he would show off the pokemon before the evil teams and by the time we see a evil team using one, the pokemon that Ash had was already rotated off the main cast. Plus when you combine it with the fact that the Team Skull Grunts uses Salandndits as one of their pokemon in the anime and Plumeria will likely have Salazzle, no it does not matter if Salandit/Salazzle is one of the fastest pokemon in the Alola region as it's pretty unlikely that Ash will get it, do to the Team Skull Grunts using Salandits and Plumeria likely having it's Salazzle.

Look I can understand likely a pokemon and wanting Ash to catch it, however in the case of Salandit being realistic here it's chances of Ash getting one aren't good as it's currently being used by Team Skull grunts and on top of that Plumeria will likely have Salazzle, and before you try to bring up oh well it doesn't matter because Ash has had pokemon in common with evil team too, but you seem to be forgetting one small fact and that is all the pokemon that Ash has had in common with evil teams where pokemon that he showcased in the anime before the evil teams and the evil teams that used the pokemon afterwards didn't show up until future generations.

Yeah team rocket is most likely going to end up with Bewear eventually as there is no way they can report back to headquarters without it otherwise they will be in so much trouble with Giovanni!

I was all for them catching Bewear during the first ten episodes or so, but now I hope they won't bother doing that cuz while it might end Bewear's gag (which I'd consider as an improvement), I don't see Bewear as that fitting for either Jessie or James.

That's three Fire moves.
Incineroar can learn Cross Chop. Three moves being the same type isn't that exciting when you look at Kiawe's Pokemon.

What about this?
Scratch -> Darkest Lariat
Ember -> Flamethrower
Fire Fang
Fury Swipes -> Cross Chop

So something interesting was found on the Twitters tonight.

Apparently, GF trademarked USM and, for some reason, Roselia. While not a guarantee that it's going to happen, GF does tend to trademark Pokemon if they're going to get something new. They trademarked a lot of the Pokemon that got Megas in XY, for example. So who knows? Maybe an Alolan Roselia is in the cards here.

If it is, there's another likely possibility for Mallow, and I would be happy with that. I'd love to see a Roserade on the main cast.

That's interesting well if we do get a Alolan Roselia then that would mean it would open up the possibility of some pokemon from other generations besides gens 1 and 2 getting Alolan forms. Well in that case I just had an idea for a pokemon that could get an Alolan in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon if pokemon from other generations are besides gens 1 and 2 are getting Alolan forms then here is my idea what if we get a

Alolan Hippopotas and Hippowdon that wind up being Water/Ground or they could be Ground/Water either way works and the reason for Hippopotas and Hippowdon is that they started to live on the beaches of Alola so since they were constantly near Water they had to learn how to adapt to deal with the Water, and in the games maybe you could find Alolan Hippopotas and Hippowdon at Hano Beach sort of like how you find Sandygast there. How does that sound?

I heard there was supposed to be an actual announcement on July 26th about Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. Maybe something there.

I like Roselia.

I wonder which type it would be.

Interesting about the possibility of Alolan Roselia and in turn hopefully Alolan Roserade. Who knows maybe this time they'll focus on giving Alolan forms to Sinnoh Pokémon? Anyway I hope it's Grass/Fairy.

I know a lot of people want Johto Alolan forms, but really, Sinnoh hasn't received too much attention in the games recently either. So I honestly wouldn't be surprised if we do get some Sinnoh Alolan forms. Plus, Sinnoh introduced a lot of evolutions of Johto Pokemon.

Well if people expect Team Rocket to showcase Darkium z then it will have to be either Bewear or Mereanie since Mimiku has a pretty solid move set that I don't see them changing. Anyway regardless of whether they can continue to use the gag, they will eventually have to capture Bewear because not only did they mention that they want to but if they don't they will be in hot water with Giovanni. And since their main goal in Alola was to capture new Pokémon, there is no way they can talk their way out of getting in so much trouble if they don't bring back Bewear with them.

I think it's more like we expected Johto Alolan forms because of the original Gold and Silver games coming to the 3DS. We didn't take into consideration of any Alolan forms past gen 2, but I'm pretty sure we're open to it if the possibilities are there.

Water/Fighting Croagunk and Toxicroak would be cool! And fighting type Aipom and Ambipom or a ground/dark Gligar and Gliscor.

Or a psychic/fairy type Lucario for Ash!!

I really don't think they'll give Pokémon that have Mega Evolutions Alola forms tbh. And I really think the Lucario opportunity is gone for Ash. They didn't give him one when it was super popular in Sinnoh, and again didn't give him one in Kalos even with its Mega Evolution. So I think the ship has sailed for a potential Lucario.

I'd rather Hoenn stop getting so much love. Johto needs it more. Anyway, if Alolan Roseland is a thing, wouldn't Roserade also need an Alola form? And if they do go with giving it to Mallow, that would mean it would probably still be a grass type (presumably Grass/Fairy or perhaps Grass/Fire for an interesting twist)

Or Alolan Roselia would be a thing more for the sake of Alolan Roserade? It's not like Sinnoh has received too much love in the games recently either.

Rosella is trademailed by a company called Bushiroad and the name belongs to a band of the same name in one if their franchises.

Unfortunately, that trademark is nothing but a coincidence.

Well shucks, getting excited over a potential new Alolan form for nothing. So I guess its probably back to hoping and speculating Alolan forms for Gen 2 Pokémon.

As Illusio said, the applicant for the Roselia trademark isn't GameFreak, but a company called Bushiroad (株式会社ブシロード). Compare that to the applicants for the Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon trademarks:

任天堂株式会社 - Nintendo Co., Ltd.
株式会社クリーチャーズ - Creatures, Inc.
株式会社ゲームフリーク - GameFreak, Inc.

Unfortunately, this sort of dashes the hopes for an Alolan form Roselia or Roserade.
