Topic: Character's Pokémon Changes/Evolutions/Captures *SPOILERS*

[The Librarian]

Since the old topic has now gone, I thought I might make a new one. Especially in light of the change to Ash's Pokémon. As of the latest Japanese episode; Eve of Battle! Ash's Pokémon All Together!!, his Cyndaquil has now evolved into Quilava, also learning the move Eruption. It only took it around 508 episodes to do so..

Anyway, your thoughts?

508 episodes!? My god, puts leveling up that magikarp into a gyarados into perspective. Weird he seems to be using two fire types for the league...although his chimchar line was always been a bit crappy. Maybe he's seen sense and ditched it in favour of a proper fire starter line.

[Angelic Lapras King]

I'd rather he didnt ditch any of his Sinnoh Pokemon for the League, whom he's trained so hard with and even got some to their final evolutions.

Well, maybe ditch Gabite and Pikachu.

[The Librarian]

He was always going to call some Pokémon out from Oak's though wasn't he. I mean aside from Hoenn, there hasn't been a league that he's competed in with just his main party. Also, from the look of next week's preview, he's going to bring Heracross back as he will be battling Nando with it, Staraptor and Quilava.

Well, maybe ditch Gabite

Am I missing something

[Angelic Lapras King]

Yeah, Gabite's too recent and still in it's first evolution. I know Buizel still is, but he's been with Ash way way more long.

[The Librarian]

To be honest, as much as I would like him to go through with one team instead of having him switch Pokémon every battle, I really want to see Totodile back and possibly have it evolve. It's now the only Johto starter that hasn't made it to it's second stage. Though if it does evolve, I want it to go all the way, not get stuck as a Croconaw for a decade like Bayleef has.

[Angelic Lapras King]

I always wanted Ash to return to Pallet to see one of his Pokemon had evolved since he been away, not just left the way they so many years ago. :/

[Apprentice]

To be honest, as much as I would like him to go through with one team instead of having him switch Pokémon every battle,

By the looks of preview images for next Thursday's episode, he uses Heracross for his battle against Nando...

Why did they wait so long ? Ash finally evolved another one of his Starters .

UPDATE

Not really a new capture or whatever, but Gliscor fans are going to be pretty happy this week...

[Apprentice]

I saw the pictures for this week's episode.
Gliscor's return was probably the biggest surprise in the whole series for me. I gasped out loud.

Yeah, I was thinking "oh no, he hasnt call for Charizard has he?" and then was hugely surprised to see Gliscor. Good call.

[Apprentice]

Charizard would've been meh-ish for me.
But goddamn he could've brought back Sceptile.
...Or maybe ALL THREE. That's a nice scenario to think about.

[Awkward Squirtle]

He needs his squirtle back!! It'd be brilliant, as long as he didn't go and evolve it...

[Catstorm]

he could've brought back Sceptile.

In the final Sinnoh league battle he does so.
