Going to agree with your one liner here.

Its not even the movesets but some of the movesets not being complete and others still having Tackle, I actually like the other moves the pokemon have.

Hopefully the writers are gonna fix this blemish sooner or later...specifically before the league. Otherwise, while I give my own criticisms of them, I still think it's a pretty interesting team, possibly Ash's most creative

[BugPokemonMaster316]

I think that by the end of the Unova League Palpitoad, Oshawott, and Pignite will evolve and Ash will catch a Pokemon from Kanto or Johto. Hopefully he catches a Scyther or a Magby. As for Iris, I think she will catch another dragon Pokemon. Maybe Bagon and it will evolve into Shelgon. I don't see much change in Cilan's team as i doubt he will evolve Pansage. It's possible that he could catch a fire-type Pokemon like Growlithe.

i'd love to see ash catch a scyther that'd be so cool..and have it evovle into a scisor

i'd love it but i doubt it will happen.Why? ash is unlikley to get a second bug but more importantly i don't think he'll get another poekmon that evolves by trade.

[Almighty Zard]

the starters are not always going to be in control, and evolution isn't always the solution either, as much as I don't like reminding people, Turtwig went from awsome to useless as it evolved or did we forget that --

I really think people need to quit overanalyzing the new guys and treat them like they have to live up to what the sinnoh team acheived, each regional team will develop at the pace the writers set for them, expecting to copy a previous regional team in terms of evolution development is foolish, and all it will do is set you up for disapointment.

Example: Oshawott will evolve just like Chimchar, rapidly.

Not that I care if it does evolve or not, but in the event it doesn't, I'm guessing people will be kicking themselves for getting too hyped and the anti hero will probably commit harakiri...sadly Joltik-kid might too if Snivy doesn't evolve which sucks cause he's actually cool around here.

You all also fail to realise Ash has more pokemon this go round, and due to rotating them, we'll be dang lucky if all of them sans Pikachu actually evolve once.

[Joltik-Kid]

sadly Joltik-kid might too if Snivy doesn't evolve which sucks cause he's actually cool around here.

Just because I pulled this one line out, doesn't mean I don't agree with what you just said

As for hype, I find myself questioning Snivy evolving or not all the time. If she doesn't evolve, she'll still be awesome to me. Yes I'm probably one of the few people here that favor the Snivy line more then the other two, but I'm never upset with the ending. If Emboar happens, so be it If Oshawott has to be downgraded to lowly Comedic value, fine by me. If Snivy stays the same till the end, no worries.

I may seem obsessive, but I try to be reasonable. Thank you for the concern and comment though ^_^

what do u have against one liners? Pignite should get brick break and Leavanny should get x scissor . That rids them of tackle . As much as I hate having them keep flame charge and razor leaf I guess they could stay . Oshawott's bound to get a non water move soon. I think Palpitoad will evolve and get drain punch

I don't know what harakiri is since I'm an AMERICAN and not Japanese but I do know what suicide is. No, even if Oshawott doesn't evolve, it won't stop me from getting hyped up about the next best thing because that's just the way I am. Contrary to popular belief, I'm quite aware that there's a chance he won't evolve and I'm actually fine with that. As long as they don't make him look any weaker than he already is.

I'm sure a lot of haters (you all know who you are.) will TRY to bring me down if the otter doesn't evolve but they won't succeed.

If I was going to kill myself it would be because my life sucks, not because of something I fully expect to happen on a TV show.

I fully expect Oshawott, and Snivy to not evolve. I've even lost any zest that could occur in the off chance they do evolve.

Not even if Ash had:

Pikachu
Unfezant
Samurott
Emboar
Serperior
Scraggy
Leavanny
Seismitoad
Gigalith
Krookodile
Espeon/Meloetta
Lucario

Would I care. I still wouldn't care. I've pretty much given up all hope of liking 5th gen anime, period. Something that I used to want that happens, still won't change that.

I just have to hope that 6th gen is a combination of 4th gen and 5th gen, the good parts of 4th gen with the good parts of 5th gen (if there are any). I'm willing (for 6th gen only) to give the writers one more chance at three starters and up to 10 Pokemon if not more and potentially give better screentime to the Pokemon.

Sad part is that team would have to be completely rushed...thus poorly written. I have to say I'm not super impressed with 5th gen... but it could be worst I guess

Ugliest Samurott image I've ever seen

That made me laugh

I just thought of something imagine Cilan with a mime. jr and it doing what he does during his moments

[Almighty Zard]

Maybe I went overboard, but considering a couple of pokeshippers threatened to go through with it a while back and weren't joking, when I see people go to extreme levels, that's the first thing that comes to mind, if I offended anyone I apologize and no PrinceGray I wasn't picking a fight with you.

Assuming Ash catches an older gen pokemon, and it isn't riolu or eevee, i'd like it to be something from gen 3 since he only got five guys, even though he could've gone with only four since Torkoal was pointless

Zangoose, Metang(like Palpitoad since I see Beldum like Tympole) Ralts (male that evolves into Gallade) or Bagon(don't start with iris people) I would've put Vibrava down, but Ash enough ground pokemon as it stands.

That's just me guessing though, i do want to see one more capture made, if nothing is caught fine, if something is caught and doesn't seem like a good choice it won't bother me either.

Though I will say Metang/Metagross and Gallade>Reuniclus, not because of typing. But because I can't see ash with a pure organic psychic, Gallade is part fighting so it doesn't have to rely on it's psychic powers as much and Metagross line is artificial. Most psychics like reuniclus and alakazam require strong mental bonds with thier trainers to reach full potential, I can't see Ash with such a thing

This made my day. Thank you. :')

[Royal_Qeca]

I still miss James' one doing that and now it is sealed in a dark room waiting for him and crying in a corner... This destroyed my day.

[dman_dustin]

Well with 5 team changes within 17 episodes, we could easily get four evolutions: Oshawott evolving, Snivy evolving, Palpitoad evolving, and Pignite evolving and one capture...let's say....I don't know....um, Riolu.

Then 15 episodes of nothing then another 17 episodes and three evolutions: Dewott evolving, Servine evolving, and Riolu evolves.

That's a total of 49 episodes, seems reasonable.

but it could be worst I guess

Just imagine a league team of JUST:

Pikachu
Unfezant
Oshawott
Pignite
Snivy
Scraggy

*shudders*

Wonder if that was the original idea D:

[thunderblade12]

Oshawott and Piplup will probably play a large role in the Team Rocket-Meloetta stuff so I hope Oshawott evolves to save her. Then it can evolve again in like 30 episodes like Monferno. It's not too late even if this saga's only going to be like 150 episodes long.

[pokemonsquared]

I don't see why they need to drag out the evolutions so much especially with unmarketable pokes like scraggy or bldore. Fast evolutions aren't really an issue since pilswine got all of 3 episodes before evolving.

I'd like this to happen. I'm expecting around 30-50 more episodes, but others may disagree...

[Zariful]

Dewott! I beg u writers evolve the water starter for once

Uhm Scraggy is/was marketable :P
Piloswine evolving so quick took me by surprise I must admit x3

It learnt a move to save her, I don't think it's going to evolve in the same fashion..
They could've had it evolve and learn Hydro Pump at the same time if they were going to >_>

Dose wan linerZ!

I think it made sense, ingame Piloswine evolve rigth away in the next level if it knew Ancient Power(I believe), I always though they wanted to make it evolve fast, specially since Gligar got the same treatment, Aipom didn't but it still ended up an Ambipom.

Their intent with those pokemons was to showcase their new evolutions, so they had to evolve fast because thats what they wanted the viewers to see.
