I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be getting about the Mr. Mime, Dragonair and Riolu toys unless y'all are implying that Ash will now get a Riolu. I might have agreed with that leap in logic if it weren't for the fact that Ash never had a Dragonair. Had that toy been a Dragonite then sure you could make a sound argument about it, but at most those toys just imply that we'll see a Riolu very soon.

Still though, that merchandise was revealed months before Ash used Mr. Mime, or Dragonair made its appearance.

EDIT: And there's this

French Poképedia considers Mimey as "temporary" unlike other Poképedias, and I am not quite sure which is more accurate. Come to think of it, Ash indeed used Mimey just once for a battle, and there are no other implications that Mimey is indeed a Pokémon that regularly belongs to Ash's main party.
Based on the evidence we have, I don't think "temporary" is the most accurate term to describe it.
 
I believe that this magazine scan confirms that Gou will catch Sandile, Darmanitan, Cofagrigus, and Golurk. Looks like they're going to Unova in the near future.
 
I also think that Ash can't get a Lucario without continuity being brought up, especially concerning his aura abilities.

There are plenty of trainers WITHOUT aura that have Lucario. So Ash's aura abilities wouldn't need to be brought up when him and Riley are the only humans with aura in the first place.
 
I doubt it, considering that Ash caught a Dragonite without even thinking about Iris's Dragonite.

Or hell, Go catching all three members of the Caterpie line, one of the lines that Ash has the most attachment to considering that it's the first Pokemon he caught himself AND the first one he released.

Hopefully he actually fails on most of them, coming home with just one or two(Or even better.... NOTHING!)
The little psycopath doesn't deserve Golurk

You may as well have just said all the Pokemon in the Dex cuz that's what this list looks like lol.

See this is the bad thing about Ash getting Dragonite. People now think that any Pokemon is possible for Ash and it makes predicting which ones are highly plausible for him harder than it was before because now everyone is just putting down their favourite mons. It's hard to filter out the real plausible captures from the biased wishlists.
