I find it funny that we’ll be seeing Alola when Ash’s current party only has two pokemon with compatible Z-crystals.

Right, I forgot about the special episodes (seems that one never got dubbed for some reason, too). My mistake.Cilan appeared in one of the last few XY&Z episodes, though Ash already left the region by then and he only interacted with Clemont in that episode (and just like the Brock/Cilan episode, neither of them realized they both knew Ash).
Riolu can easily make use of Steelium-Z after it evolves into Lucario. Galarian Farfetch'd can learn Leaf Blade, which would also give it access to Grassium-Z (as well as a move that isn't a Dark-type move). If the writers want to showcase the Z-Crystals that weren't featured in the original Sun and Moon anime, then they could give Ash a Psychium-Z so that Gengar can use it.I find it funny that we’ll be seeing Alola when Ash’s current party only has two pokemon with compatible Z-crystals.
And poor Incineroar didn’t even get showed off much. Post evolution it was seen fainting and eating food later, nothing else. I think in the final battle against Kiawe he should've used Incineroar instead of Lycanroc, but this is an opportunity to showcase it again.It would be pretty cool to see Ash's SM team, if only for them to interact with his current team members. I don't know if they'll finally let him start using his reserve Pokemon, but getting some interactions between Ash and his SM team would be nice, especially when he didn't have a proper goodbye to them at the end of SM.
Well, the new intro certainly gives us something to talk about.
It's theoretically possible the classmates appearing means nothing (like when characters of the day sometimes appeared in OS openings) but I doubt it. They were major characters. It is still a bit odd we didn't see the companions from the immediately prior series get cameos during the XY--SuMo era, though. Hopefully the ones who missed out get a chance during Journeys.
My hope is that we also see Lycanroc and the other Alola Pokémon, which could maybe lead to other reserves appearing.
(or even Kukui because this show isn't about babies).
Misty and Brock in Sun/Moon were fanservice so I think I’ll let this one slide.If Ash doesn't battle Kiawe, this will go down as gratuitous fan service. I just don't see what new things can be done with Lana, Mallow or Sophocles (or even Kukui because this show isn't about babies). Another UB encounter would be very lame.

This is a series about World Tours after all and the population of Alola is so small that Ash is bound to come across someone he knows.
“The show isn’t about babies” is odd since Kukui having a baby won’t shake up the show by a lot. It’s a progression of story, an indication that something is happening while Ash went away: just like how Misty and Brock weren’t static when Ash left and had Mega Evolutions.
I hope we get some nice interactions. But how they are gonna handle 5 classmates+Ash and Gou
I'm not expecting them to be added back onto the main cast.I hope we get some nice interactions. But how they are gonna handle 5 classmates+Ash and Gou
That is not what I meant.I'm not expecting them to be added back onto the main cast.
