Remember guys, this game is going to make money somehow. They claim all the characters are going to be met as you progress through the story, but I am betting they will have special/alternate versions of the characters where they have different Pokémon or designs.
Like "FRLG Red" where he uses a Pikachu, or "LGPE Red" where he uses Venusaur. Probably most Legends and Mythicals will be released this way too. These will be where the money is made.
>>39182015>Why does Barry have Piplup? Should he have Chimchar? We've never seen an """"official"""" canon representation of the Gen 4 heroes until now, so now, clearly not. This means Lucas most likely had Chimchar.
I'm willing to bet Dawn is going to show up with Shaymin or Giratina, it's silly to think they wont have legendaries in the game, I highly doubt they're going to keep hero characters only having starters. Hell Blue having Pigeot is proof of that.
>Where is Dawn?Being added later, probably with Shaymin or Giratina or something else.
>Why does Gary/Green have Pidgeot?Blue*, and it's because it's his most neutral recurring Pokémon I guess. Probably should have gone to Trace though.
>>39182114He's had Mega Pokémon in every appearance since Mega's existed.
>>39183995Red's main Pokémon being Pikachu is dumb, do you really want him to be retroactively made into an Ash clone just because he happened to be the protagonist of the first games?
>>39186744I was surprised, but if you think about it Pallosand fits her way better.
Mimikyu is probably being saved for another character too.
