I think about the Ultra Recon Squad, Arven, Drayton, Glacia, Cogita, Caitlin, The Pearl/Diamond clans and the Battle Chatelaines. I wish they had bigger roles in pokemon media.

I would like to see the player characters that don't show up in the animé, such as Leaf, Ethan, Hilda, Calem, etcetera show up more, especially in the animé now that Ash has left as of this posting.
 
Bede being the only one of the Galar trio who didn't show up in the PokeAni... His, like, 13 frames of screentime in Twilight Wings... Being introduced to Pokemon Masters nearly a full year after the other two were..... Please
 
About a year ago I would have said "Ethan for sure" But then they announced he'd be showing up in the physical TCG and it's ended up being a banner year for my favorite protag. Glad to see him getting some much needed spotlight.~

That said, its time for Lucas to show up in more merch/spin-offs.
 
I was hyperfixated on the Team Flare scientists for years and really wanted more for them. I’m over the moon that Mable’s back but I’d like to see what the others are up to. I saw a leak saying Xerosic is coming back as well I wanna see all the girlies though I fear we won’t get them. Still, I can’t ask for much, if you told 2019 me that Mable was back, I probably would have spontaneously combusted with excitement.
 
Janine.

So most everyone knows at this point that she's like the only gym leader to never appear in the anime, but it's so much worse than that. Because in the Ruby/Sapphire arc, Ash ends up back in Kanto. And comes across a Ninja School just outside of Fuchsia City.
Where we get this character of the day, Angela.

The icing on the cake? Team Rocket gets beat by an Ariados ((of all possible Pokemon, OF COURSE it's an Ariados)) in this episode. Except it's not hers.

All five Team Star bosses. Eri is currently the only one who has been animated, but she only showed up in a single episode of Paldean Winds; the other four have yet to appear in any animations. At least Pokémon Master's EX and the Scarlet/Violet manga are now giving more content and characterization to them.
 
Benga is very much a forgotten character. I think his design is very distinguishable, and his age is closer to the main character, so he has a lot of potential to be in the story, especially with his ties to Alder. But for some reason he is nowhere anywhere aside from a post game content in a sequel game and that's all.
 
spinoff characters.... spinoff characters PLEASEEEEEEEEE!!!! i want to see them..... (<-- knowing damn well it'll never happen)

also yeah they gotta bring back the ultra recon squad. dude they're whole ass aliens you can't just NOT DO ANYTHING with that

It’s a crime they got cut from the anime. I will never shut up about the Ultra Recon Squad. They really need to do more with them and Ultra Megalopolis. There’s so much potential, I hope they return in a future legends game or something.

THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE IN THE ANIME?? or do you just mean they should've been in the anime. whatever. you're right that they should've been in there. how old is zossie supposed to be anyway it would be really funny to just give the alola gang an alien transfer student
 
More Delia Ketchum lease. I'm a big fan. Hagatha and Nagatha too.
