Lumiose Trainer Zac: *Looks at a Ping Pong Table* *Vietnam War Flashbacks*

[@mikeydowikey4140]

I’d like to imagine in your universe, Brock sees Suzie during the Battle Frontier and she allows him to keep Vulpix, she also tells him it’s ok to evolve to Vulpix. Therefore Brock evolving Vulpix in Sinnoh doesn’t seem like he’s going back on his word from “The Battling Eevee Brothers”

[@KRC75]

Interesting

[@ZeneonOMEGA]

Zac: Giving Serena a Vivillon will teach her that Pokémon evolve fast. Hydreigon, who evolves from Zweilous at Lvl. 64: *And I took that personally.*

[@ianr.navahuber2195]

I would give Serena either - A Rhyhorn (reference to she being a Ryhorn rider in earlier episodes), or a Rhyperior (same previous reason with bonus of somehow that Hypotethical Rhyperior somehow having a cute personality OR having a "Knight in Shining armor" personality, and the irony of she having one) - A Malamar or a Trevenant (further contrast with Team Rocket's Pokémon this season, and her running gag of thinking the worst in scary situations. BONUS points if said hypothethical options are actually scaredy cats. The malamar option being a contrast to the evil malamar of the season)

I would have given Sophocles a Minior as well, especially since its his dream to one day travel to space. I would have reflected Brocks inital breeding goal more in Johto as well, by giving him the baby Stantler he bonded with after Cubone evolves into Marowak, so he has another baby (So to speak), to work with. He can even bring Stantler back during the Battle Frontier to provide a parent role to his Bonsly.

[@harjaspanesar7601]

New Pokémon Teams for Ash’s Rivals (and his companion’s Rivals)? Why not give it a shot?

[@battletrainer2495]

May having an Altaria makes complete sense because she had one in the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire trailer.

[@tomkarate1]

Zac, you should have given Iris a goomy. That would be great promotion for gen 6 and would give Iris a "friendly" huggable dragon type to counteract her more bad ass dragons. And this may sound crazy, but I think Chloe should catch a female shelgon, which evolves into salamance when Chole realizes her dream. This is because shelgon's evolution into salamance is all about "coming out of its shell and spreading its wings".

Pretty awesome video and good teams but one thing I really disagree with is swapping Clemont's Luxray with Manectric as his Luxray was awesome , I would say he should have both Luxray and Manectric as an extra coz afterall Dedenne and Tyrantrum are for Bonnie so yeah

[@BLe-uw3vy]

For some reason I would Kiawe to own a talonflame and maybe Sazzle

So next in this series is most likely new teams for ash’s rivals, so I’m going to go over them now and any changes I’d make to their teams. (Side note - is only looking at their teams from the league to simplify it a bit) Gary - The team he battles ash with in the johto league is mostly fine to me. Just replace arcanine and golem with electabuzz and umbreon as they’re two of his more reoccurring Pokémon. Ritchie - again, mostly fine but I think he should get a few new Pokémon so he doesn’t have the exact same evolution lines as ash. So I guess give him a sandshrew or something... Morrison - I like the team honestly. Just evolve growlithe and swap girafarig with claydol so he has another Hoenn Pokémon. Tyson - I think we should replace his metagross - metang is already morrison’s ace and I don’t want to repeat it. He can have a Salamence instead. Also swap donphan for aggron. Paul - change ninjask to vespiquen as it has a fairly cold personality like Paul does. Aggron can change to bastiodon since I gave Tyson aggron already. Conway - I’m perfectly satisfied with conway’s team actually. Just have him use his slowking instead of shuckle when he battles ash as i feel it fits him better. Trip - he mostly just uses serperior so that means I can get more creative. I’ll be adding on chandelure, vanilluxe, conkeldurr, mandibuzz and accelgor. Stephan - just add on darmanitan, carracosta and escavalier to the three he battles ash with in the Unova league. Cameron - change swanna to swoobat so he doesn’t have two water types. Also change hydreigon to druddigon and add on his watchog from when he battles Virgil. Alain - his team needs more kalos representation. Swap Tyranitar for tyrantrum and weavile for trevenant. Also replace unfezant with honchkrow. Sawyer - probably the best team here aside from Conway's - the half and half split between kalos and Hoenn mons is great. I would personally swap slurpuff for florges but it’s perfect other than that. The Alola rivals are all fine as well - their teams are just taken from the games. And that’s it! Let me know what your ideas are!

MY Fave Changes for each Companion: - Misty💧: Togepi & Gyarados. It would be great to see Gyarados’ during the main series AND as for Togepi, that way it can comeback as a Togekiss in reunions - Brock☄️👨🏻‍⚕️: Vulpix➡️Ninetales. I didn’t mind back then BUT you actually do make good points. I can also imagine Brock’s meeting with ANOTHER certain Trainer’s Ninetales - Tracey✏️: Smeargle - Goh📱: Torterra - Chloe: Galarian Ponyta Reasons you already stated - May🏵: Ivysaur & Ralts. That way it won’t be out of nowhere that she got a Venusaur AND we can see some development from Max as a future Trainer with Ralts just like with a certain other future Trainer... - Dawn🏵: Ambipom. I agree with you keeping it cause I liked the concept of Ash & a Companion Trading & Both are doing good...BUT not for giving up Mamoswine. I think I’d have her still have it instead of getting a Glaceon BECAUSE I Love how Dawn was able to adapt a Mon like that to contests which does think of Toughness Category Contests in games - Iris🐉: Druddigon, Hydreigon, & Fraxure. The reasons you already stated PLUS MY own: In MY opinion, Axew’s development in The BW Series suffers from the Main Problem about the entire BW Series: Great Ideas, Poor Execution. We could at least see develop from just a baby to a strong Mon as well - Cilan🍃: Leavanny. I didn’t mind at first BUT I suppose it can be a good Grass-type for Cilan - Serena👑: Mudkip. Reasons you already stated Personal Note for MY Choice of Change: Delphox. As a Fan, I wouldn’t mind if she Evolved at all. Also perhaps to rep & showcase a Delphox’s capabilities in Showcases & Battles - Clemont⚡️: Manectric & Tyrantrum. I Love Luxray BUT as I stated in The New Kalos Teams, I Love the Idea that ALL Kalos Gym Leaders would get a Mega. As for Tyrantrum, I WAS SOOO frustrated that they didn’t give it to Bonnie in a similar way with Dedenne - Kiawe🔥: Magmar - Lana💧: Dewpider & Vaporeon - Sophocles⚡️🐞: Alolan Geodude - Mallow🍃: Formantis - Lillie❄️: Alolan Ninetales They are going to compete in The Alola League THUS they need to at least have their Teams amped up a bit. There are also Mons that they should at least have to reference the games. When Lana caught “Nagisa”, I was actually hoping to actually see it Evolve to Vaporeon. I also wanted to or at least see in a possible future that “Snowy” would Evolve too for besides MY love of Alolan Ninetales, it could ALSO reference in USUM games, she gains a Type specialty in Fairy-types🧚🏼‍♀️ *As for Ash getting a Drednaw & Hissuian Growlithe, I mean he has Squirtle, Torkoal, & Torterra THUS I think he’ll do great with it than TR & Chewtle. PLUS Legends Arceus rep

[@eljordinio7647]

Hope drednaw is better than his other turtles. Namely torterra and torkoal who suck

[@eljordinio7647]

I know Snowy was scare of evolving but still she might have stood a better chance against Gladion's Umbreon if she had

[@paolocalapatia6401]

@@eljordinio7647 I believed they have GREAT potential...BUT unfortunately yeah they made them suck :(

[@RajanDylan]

i'm happy u gave serena 2 more pokemon i was rly sad she only got 3 by the end of the series! She is an amazing character and written very well! Part of me thinks she would also get an Absol after losing to Aria because absol is such a flashy poke

[@eugeneemmanuel987]

1:59 was thier any problem for editing??🤔 I couldn't hear his name

[@kingmuffinman1]

i would have given Bonnie a spot on the list with dedenne, zygarde and tyrantrum ....look i don't care if shes not 10 yet if you can make friends with a legendary Pokemon outside of a movie have it be part of the show and all without using a damn poke-ball you get to be a trainer before your 10 maybe you can do a video on pokemon teams you would give charters that show up but they dont have a team i.e. ash's mom/ professor oak etc (if you haven't already idk)

[@TheMountyPresents]

Noticed a lot of similarities to my video on this, but also some new ones that made a lot of sense. Nice :D
