Do you have any Pokemon Anime headcanons?

But Ash believes they are his. And it's my headcanon, you don't have to agree...
Ash owned those Tauros because the Pokeballs were allotted to him in the Safari zone... these new ones are not.. well you have a headcanon so it’s fine, I guess, but when it contradicts with actual canon? Eh...

And why does Oak specifically eat Ash's Tauros? Just curious.
 
Hikari's Pochama forces Hikari's other Pokémon to stay in their balls.
We know that when Hinoarashi hatched, Pochama bullied it. Since Hikari's traveled to other regions, Pochama probably stopped her from being able to capture more Pokémon and dictates when her other Pokémon can come out of their balls. This makes sense because in Journies (so far) Pochama is the only one of Hikari's Pokémon to show up. This is likely to make it centre focus and that the rest are relegated to only come out for contests. Pocahama likely made this decision after Hinoarashi showed up in BW because he always has to be the focus. Hikari is nothing without her Pocahama and he likes it that way. It's also easier to enforce rules like this after Satoshi and Takeshi already left.

I mean, Piplup could be a little bit selfish at times but that would be VERY out of character for it.
 
Ash is 13 years old
Gou has a crush on Chloe
Ash had crushes on Misty, Dawn and Serena
Pikachu was captured by Team Rocket forcefully in a pokeball and thats why it doesn't like to be in a pokeball
Lysandre isn't dead, but is in the same place as the evil Malamars
Ash is adopted
Ash is in contact with Alola gang, Alolan family,Iris and Clemont/Bonnie
Power of Us and Koko is canon and is between Ash adventures
Ash's Lucario's parent is the Riolu from Sinnoh
The egg professor cerise is taking care of is an egg from Ash's Lucario and Goh's Cinderace(I think they can breed)
Larvitar from Johto is now a Tyranitar that is waiting for Ash

OK, but Hikari's other Pokémon didn't appear at all in the two-parter, plus it implies that Hikari sucks at contests now since she hasn't gotten even close to becoming a Master Coordinator. This could be due to her other Pokémon only being out of their balls when they partake in a contest, which means Hikari probably doesn't practice with them or Pochama will whinge.

Additionally, Hikari has gone back to doing the Sinnoh contests again instead of going to Kanto and doing those contests (or any other region that isn't Hoenn or Unova), since she probably thinks Sinnoh contests are easier and therefore she has to try less (due to her doing so well last time).
 
Each regional Pokémon League conference is scheduled for a different month of the year, with the Lumiose conference taking place in February, Manalo in March, Wyndon in May (technically the World Coronation Series finals, but similar in principle), Silver in June, Indigo in July, Vertress in October, Ever Grande in November, and Lily of the Valley in December. This allows President Goodshow to personally attend multiple conferences in a single year.
 
Ash's Lucario is the love child of the Lucario from Smash and the other Lucario from Pokkén.
Ash's Pokémon in BW and Journies do more training off screen than on screen because the writes don't know "Show don't barely tell".
Goh's Pokémon train themselves because he sucks. They only need him for the evolution requirement and nothing else.
Ash forgot about Ambipom completely.
When Ash goes up a Coronation Series rank off screen it's because someone else went way down in rank, forcing his rank to go up.
Cerise Lab is in the exact same spot as the guy who wanted to make a building in Vermilion.

Honestly, I can see this being the case. It makes sense that Ash would go up in rank if someone else drops in rank far enough that they end up below him.

The only problem with that is that Ash doesn't drop in rank when he doesn't battle. Like, there were 12 episodes in between Iris and Volkner battles. Ash should have dropped rank in those episodes.

He's also in a much smaller ranking pool. If battles are pre-set we can assume that they aren't as common and if the battles are high enough....

For example let's say Volkner battled the 51st ranked trainer. If 51 drops via the loss they'd go to 68, and that would bump 52-67/8 while Ash wouldn't be effected.
