Examples:

Misties togepi
Tracies marill
May's Munchlax
Jame's Mime Jr.

Maybe Misty will get another...

Nah, I think Brock may get a fifth gen pokemon late in the series.
 
I think either Brock or James will get one. Maybe James will get another from his grandparents.
 
It's too late in the series to expect any of the main characters to get a new capture.

They purposely held off the new pokemon this gen, not even showing any in fillers or whatnot.

I don't think anyone will capture a new pokemon until the next arc, of course.
 
If anyone gets a Generation V Pokémon, it won't be until after Shinou is over.

They've been very hush-hush about Generation V, and I suspect it's because they went so overboard with showcasing Generation IV prior to its official release. Not only did they give GenIV Pokémon to two main characters, but GenIV Pokémon were the focus of two consecutive movies made in Generation III - and even in the video games, Gonbe and Usohachi were shown off in Pokémon Dash and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, respectively, before Diamond and Pearl were even released.

By the time DP did come out, we'd already met something like 20 GenIV Pokémon. Clearly, Nintendo wants to keep GenV a little fresher - and frankly, I think that's a good idea. I know I'm excited about it.

You know how hard it is to read this? Use English Pokemon names please, I had a bit of trouble, because I do not follow the original names.

Some people use the Japanese names here. Get used to it. If you're really struggling, I hope you realized that we have Bulbapedia.

Besides, those names can easily reasoned out using context.

Yeah, but it is just extra work that is not needed. It isn't like the English video games suck compared to the Japanese. I see no reason to use the Japanese names as it comes off as weaboo-ish.
 
The legendary Pokemon that's supposed to pop up in the Sinnoh League will most likely be from Gen V.
 
Stick to the topic, please. Some people use the Japanese names because that is what they are more familiar with. If you really want to know who is being talked about, Bulbapedia and Google are your friends.



Nintendo's policy in general is to hold off on hyping new games too far ahead of time these days so this is going to cause adjustments on how the anime can handle new Pokémon. It's very possible that we'll see something new in the league, like with Harrison's Blaziken at the Silver Conference. But with so little time left, major characters will probably follow the entry to Gen III and not get anything ahead of time.

Misties Azurill
Azurill is a Gen III Pokémon. Misty's Azurill wasn't seen until three years into that generation.

Jesse- That does make sense, aside from the two revealed (Probably be the ones who appear in the League if any) they have been so hush hush it makes me wonder if they will reveal them when B&W comes out in Japan (In September right?)
 
I've been wondering why a fifth gen poke has not been seen in the anime yet, and I'm thinking it might pop up either before or during the league. Ash seeing new pokemon is always part of what gets him to go to a new region. They could just have somebody tell him about it, but that's the way it's been done before. He fought a trainer with Hoenn pokes in Johto. He fought Gary's Electivire at the end of AG.
 
I think its too late for any new captures but if someone does capture a gen V pokemon before the saga starts it will probably be Brock
 
Like what was brought up earlier, we might get a similar situation like we did with Harrison's Blaziken (I remember that very well, I was really excited to see a new Gen Pokemon back then). If not, I think the best that we'll get is seeing Zorua and Zoroark in the movies.
 
I doubt it will happen, but hopefully if it does, it will go to James. Little guy hasn't gotten anything new in a long time.

Most likely though sadly, it'll go to Brock.
 
I bet Dawn will be the first main character with a Gen V Pokemon. She has a Pachirisu, which looks like it SHOULD evolve into some other Pokemon. But... as of Gen IV it has NO evolved form. So maybe Pachirisu evolves into a Gen V Pokemon.

What's wrong with Brock getting a Gen V Pokemon? He hasn't caught anything in a while.

Anyway, I think one of the Gen V Pokemon should go to Ash for once.
