Lance's Red Gyarados is back! Continuity!
I wouldn't say that's continuity unless it is mentioned that Lance and Ash known each other.

Lance's Red Gyarados is back! Continuity!
Umm... I think Lance having that specific Gyarados is continuity.I wouldn't say that's continuity unless it is mentioned that Lance and Ash known each other.
Yeah, it’s continuity, but so bare and irrelevant that it ends up having no story significance. It’s technically one but not what most people are looking for.Umm... I think Lance having that specific Gyarados is continuity.
Type advantages? Pokéani?I mean it makes sense for him to use Gyrados cause of type advantage
I personally am satisfied with this level of continuity already. It'll just be all the more satisfying if more (like Ash recognizing Lance or even him recalling his earlier experiences with him) is mentioned.Yeah, it’s continuity, but so bare and irrelevant that it ends up having no story significance.

Ash recognising someone whom he's spent multiple arcs at this point is the bare minimum.I personally am satisfied with this level of continuity already. It'll just be all the more satisfying if more (like Ash recognizing Lance or even him recalling his earlier experiences with him) is mentioned.
I think it's pretty likely he will recognize him.Ash recognising someone whom he's spent multiple arcs at this point is the bare minimum.
KANTO LEAGUE ELITE FOUR MEMBER; WATARU & THE RED GYARADOS: The Trainer representing the Kanto region.
THE UNDEFEATED CHAMPION OF THE GALAR REGION; DANDE & LIZARDON: The super amazing Trainer said to have never lost a battle in the Galar region!
Actually, he was only referred to as a Champion in the Red Gyarados episodes and The Legend of Thunder!. In the Groudon & Kyogre episodes, he was referred to as a member of the Elite Four, probably due to the then-topicality of FireRed and LeafGreen. And now it's probably because his latest appearance was in the Let's Go games, where he also was an Elite Four member.WAIT....
Lance... is appearing as the kanto league elite four member? Is that the right translation? Not champion? I thought he appeared as the champion in the AG Aqua/Magma crisis? Are they resetting him to an elite four?
.... I really want to hate on their choice for that. They picked Lance, an elite four member, not even a champion, to help with the Groudon/Kyogre crisis, when Hoenn clearly has two prominent champions, because they just had to pander to kanto?Actually, he was only referred to as a Champion in the Red Gyarados episodes and The Legend of Thunder!.

The strange thing just is that he was explicitly referred to as a Champion in the Johto anime, but then the Gen III anime called him an Elite Four member.I think we have to remember that in gen 1 there wasn't a champion until Blue came in and defeated the Elite Four, which didn't happen in the anime.
My guess? In the anime, the Kanto Champion isn't separate from the Elite Four like in other regions, but the most powerful of them is also the Champion.
