I think it would be interesting if the Champion was actually a coward who sucks at Pokemon battles

Usually I hate how the Pokemon say their own names in the anime but I can make an exception for Furret :3:

On one hand I have never pre-ordered anything ever and am not even sure I'm going to buy the "first version" of this gen (I didn't get Diamond/Pearl either and that turned out to be the right move, I gather).

But on the other hand with that jumpsuit instead of playing an aggro Scottish girl, I could be a rude Irish guy with an ASBO caught for stealing some pick 'n' mix.

Just a thought, and I know we've gotten similar games for older consoles, but how well would a Colosseum style game for the Switch work if it included all of the features that SwSh removed? It could have the standard battle mode and mini campaign that could earn battle points allowing you to get megastones, z crystals, and other battle items, include a national Pokedex, be compatible with home but also have in game storage so that you could store Pokemon not in Galar without a subscription, include bottle caps or a breading system so that previous gen Pokemon not in Galar could still be bred, and just generally be designed for battling without needing to include a full on story. It seems like this would be a great way of keeping these things around without needing to put them in a main line game if it had a solid online battle mode.

Personally I prefer frying my Whishcash Fillets in a cornbread dredge rather than a proper breading, but to each their own.

What's a bottle cap in this context?

They kidnapped the scientist who created it, were going after the only type (in-fiction) that was super effective against it, wanted a Master Ball and had a low-key presence in the place where Mewtwo resided.

There's also them going after fossils, because they knew about DNA reconstruction.

I don't think your average grunt knew what they were doing but there is a pretty clear pattern to their appearances outside of the Game Corner.

The Team Rocket plot in Gen One was one of best displays of subtle storytelling in the series. Sadly, since any other plot in the generation was nonexistent, it only hurt itself and went mostly unnoticed.

Post your Alola League predictions itt

Not shown because I couldn't find clean art: The bracket winner fights Masked Royal

The brackets are based on the order the matches are listed in but I feel like they have to be incorrect because Ash vs Guzma should come later and the top-right quarter doesn't have anyone who seems like the writers would want in the semi-finals



Not shown: Ash beats Gladion then loses to Masked Royal; during the semi-finals Jessie somehow convinces Bewear to fight for her

You got the order wrong, its confirmed that ash and hau fight in the second round.

As far as I remember yes, I'm definitely looking forward to that one. Mallow Vs Lana could be fun as well.

Confirmed where? I remember a promotional image posted somewhere in this thread that implied Ash would fight Ilima, Hau, Gladion and Guzma but I can't find anything

fake edit: Oh it's from upcoming episode summaries/titles

It'd be sick if Jessie somehow got Bewear to fight for her in the league tho

Unless future episode titles say otherwise I'm pretty sure Mallow has no chance (anime Lana is terrifying when she gets serious).
