Which pokemon do you think the Main Characters will get until the end of this D\P season?

I think Ash will get a shieldon and a shellos or even maybe a riolou.

Dawn will get a grass and\or psychic type for the contests maybe cherrim or snover. the psychic type i dont know.

As for Brock i cant never guess what pokemon he gets so say what you think...
 
Dawn just caught 4 Pokemon in the span of 35 episodes, I don't think she needs anymore at the moment. As it is the writers have a hard time giving good screen time to all of them, (Buneary and Pachirisu aren't featured as much as Piplup and Buizel are), so another capture would just complicate things further. I think Dawn's team should stay as it is at least until we get toward the later half of Sinnoh.

Ash might be catching a Hippo in a few weeks although there's a possibility he won't.
 
i agree with you that Dawn's team is a little full bur the only thing she can do on conteste is water type attacks and ice beam because of buneary so at least one more type like grass or even fire.

Hippo isnt Ash's style
 
I can see Dawn getting one new Pokémon later on. Cherrim is the most likely.

If the GS remakes happens, I want Ash to bring back Cyndaquil and evolve it. Riolu is a good option for the sixth slot but that's another popular - thus unoriginal - idea.

I also think that Ash should get Azelf at some point. I'm sure he won't but if he did catch a legendary that would be the most suited.
 
On the off-chance that the writers were going somewhere with aura in movie 8, it would be linked in with the lake trio. Of the three, the being of willpower fits Ash's personality.

And I just like Azelf. :p
 
I would thought Ho-Oh would be the most suitable legendary Pokémon for Ash... but Azelf's cool, so Ash can catch one. :D

But yeah, Aipom and Staravia are probabably going to evolve sometime. I'd imagine Staravia's will be... maybe sometime around the fifth gym? And Aipom's awesome, so I would like for it to stay that wya for a while. Perhaps evolving after sixth gym. As for the Buizel/Aipom idea, I won't be seeing any eps with Buizel until they're dubbed, so I have no opinion.

Turtwig will probably be evolving sometime soon... maybe right after the third gym. I like Grotle, gosh darn it, show me it soon. And despite Turtwig appearantly being some kind of Olympic track runner (or so I've heard), I will really be pissed if Grotle doesn't evolved before the Sinnoh League. They could either have Turtwig loose that speediness or make a super-fast Torterra, I don't care. I just want one.

For Ash's two open slots, I want Riolu for one of them. It would be cool to see Riley appear on Iron Island (which the twerps would visit either before the sixth gym or during training for a sixth gym rematch) and give Ash the Riolu egg, But I'd be cool with him catching a wild one. Just make it different from Movie 8's Lucario, who is a great character and should be kept an individual. Maybe make Ash's Riolu really flamboyant or something. XD

The other slot I would hope would be filled before we go to Iron Island (if we do), but I don't really care what it is as long as it's in the Sinnoh Dex. Maybe a Drifloon/Drifblim. Or a Sneasel/Weavile. Or a Mantyke/Mantine (caught way before they appear in the games, thanks). It'd all be cool with me. Well... I honestly don't like Hippopotas, so I'm hoping that doesn't happen.

Cherubi/Cherrim for Dawn would be cool. Go for it, writers! Anyway, I want Buneary to eventually evolve (probably near the end of Sinnoh) just for the sake of its crush on Pikachu being super creepy. And I want Buizel to evolve (after a looooong time of Buizel screentime goodness) just because I think seeing Floatzel animated a great deal would boost my appreciation for it.

Piplup I'm unsure of... It has been made out to be side-kick mascot, but so was Togepi. I guess if there's a Sinnoh edition of an Orange Islands/Battle Frontier saga, Piplup might evolve a tiny bit sooner than Torchic did and evolve a little later than Grovyle did. If Dawn leaves us after Sinnoh, it could either evolve the same time Torchic did and stay that way or evolve the last second like Combusken did. Or Piplup could simply not evolve. I don't know.

Croagunk's cool and I want it to stay a while, but Toxicroak's cool too. Maybe evolve near the end of its stay with the group, Mudkip-style? Or stay the way he is, that would be cool too. I don't know what I want to do with Happiny, as I haven't seen it appear yet. But I'd imagine it will evolve maybe three-fourths into Sinnoh and evolve quickly after that like Golbat did.

And I don't know what Jessie or James are going to do. Seviper and Cacnea aren't in the Sinnoh Dex, but they don't seem to be intent on leaving... not that I'm complaining. I don't see Mime Jr. evolving, really. And Jessie could get a new Pokémon, but I don't see what. Don't know what to think about them.

*shrugs*
 
Ash needs to get Hippopotas. Why? Because it's one of the most typo'd Pokemon ever!
 
Treecko actually didn't evolve until right before the 5th Gym, so I dare say we're going to be stuck with Turtwig just as long. I really want to see Grotle too, but I suppose it'll be another couple of months yet.
 
Honnestly i cant see Ash catching azelf or any legendary...
Turtwig will evolve soon i mean he already knows razor leaf so maybe around the 4th gym.
In the 3rd gym it would be cool if aipom learned a fighting move. Also i agree that he will evolve since the writers would love a ambipom vs. ambipom in the 8th gym.
My idea about Ash getting a bastiondon might not be so true since Gary appears in the episode with Hunter J and the shieldons so it could be Gary catching one afterall
 
The Hippopotas episode definately looks like Ash will catch it...

And Hippopotas looks adorable.
 
Yeah. Even though Dawn's Buizel helps it at one part, most of the preview shows Ash carrying it, feeding it, and the end shows him saving it as they fall in a river.
 
Sounds like Ash will get it, really.

And trading Buizel for Aipom...I think that'd be a good idea. Trading is a key aspect to the games which has not been touched upon in the TV show lately. The first time it made it look like you were abandoning your Pokémon and the second an innocent Pokémon ended up joining Team Rocket. And with Wi-Fi, trading seems to be important to promote as a good thing.

But Buizel for Aipom is out of the question if Ash gets that Hippo...
 
Trust me Ash doesnt get Hippo...
And i find it very hard that trade of aipom for buizel since all the trainers had a lot of difficulty trying to catch it so i dont see Dawn just trading it
 
The preview to the next episode reminds me a lot of Torkoal's capture ep, where Ash and co. were trying to help it get through the Steel Valley without getting attacked.

He's helping the Hippo in a similar manner so it would not surprise me if this is indeed Ash's next capture.
 
The preview shows Hippo using Yawn a lot, which leads to two implications if Ash catches it:

1) Ash can make his opponents fall asleep in battle.
2) It will steal Jigglypuff's running gag.

Though it would be worth bringing Jigglypuff back just to get some Hippo-enduced revenge. :-D
 
It'd be nice for Ash to have a Pokemon that relies on otherthings besides force.

I also can imagine it using Sandstorm in cool ways.
 
Ok but if Ash captures hippo he'll have 2 ground pokes and there is still a water type missing an eastern shellos is the only option i see and it is also ground so i cant see what the writers are coming up with -.-

Stealing Jigglypuff's running gag wouldn't so much be stealing as Jiggly hasn't appeared in the anime since the very beginning of Hoenn. You can't "steal" what hasn't been in the anime for at least the last couple of years. (Which is unfortunate, because Jiggly is awesome and really should get another appearance someday)

Reminds me of the people who acted like Brody "stole" Duplica's gag, when Duplica was just a throw away filler character from Kanto who was overglorified by certain members of the fanbase for some bizarre reason as if she was an important character. This fanbase tends to do a lot of that with those early (and unimportant) characters, doesn't it?

I pull for the Hippo, considering I don't know what else Ash can get with the dwindling Sinnoh debut list. :)
