He can catch Corviknight later on. Ash has caught the early route bird in every gen except Gen 7, where Rowlet arguably served as a substitute. Although, out of all the starters he failed to get in the past Popplio is the only one I can't see Ash getting in this saga.

I see "conventional Pokemon" as Pokemon archetypes that usually go to Ash, such as the starters or the common early route bird.

It would actually be better if Gou got Grookey, because it would open the door for Ash to catch more unconvential Pokemon.

I do.

All unevolved Pokemon he has caught in this saga so far have two stage lines. I don't know if they would have him just catch a fully evolved Rillaboom.

Incineroar is quite popular. It even got into Smash Bros.

Since SM, Ash has only caught either massive fan favorites or Pokemon that the writers want to promote.

Rillaboom is less popular than Grookey itself so it doesn't make sense for Ash to have one.

It's its main method of attacking. I think that Grookey will just go to Gou like Scorbunny and Sobble.

Rillaboom mostly just stands around and beats its drum. It's not very mobile.

Yeah. I can't see them giving Ash just the least popular starter. It doesn't make any sense.

He could always go back and catch one of the starters he missed out on.

Ash might also get an old starter that he missed out on instead of getting a brand new Galar starter.

Bumped due to the new preview.
