Yeah Gladion using one of his dark types against Kiawe's Marowak is likely to me. Then Turtonator can get his first win since the battle royale and lose to Silvally or Lycanroc. Both Marowak and Turtonator will then have a 50/50 win/loss rate within this league if you don't count the battle royale.
I can see Zoroark’s illusions being saved as something “unexpected” for Ash to face.
So, this is the first part of Guzma vs Satoshi.Adamant said:
Yeah I'll agree with you on that. People can say that Ash had too many rivals in BW, but they at least made several appearances and each had a nice quirk about them. And of course none of them come close to Ash's first rival, and Ash's greatest rival respectively.
Well, I guess semifinals are indeed 2 vs 2 instead of 1 vs 1.
The previews and summaries haven't mentioned or shown more than two Pokémon that each of the semifinalists would use.
Well, I know its going to be a 2 vs 2 but my point was that why couldn’t it have been written to be 3 vs 3 rather than the 2 vs 2 which we seem to be getting?
Good question. The only even remote reason I can think of would be that we know only two of Guzma's Pokémon and they for some reason don't want to show more of his arsenal.
They’re not even going to have an opportunity to show more of his Pokemon after this! I guess for some reason they don’t want to give “secret weapon” Pokemon to any trainer. That’s a disgrace because Guzma’s just the type to use a new Pokemon to throw Ash off guard. And his game team offers plenty of material.
Golisopod already provides Water coverage. I think he could've easily given him a Pinsir or a Masquerain.
At least the latter, given that Gladion has four Pokémon.
My guess is Ash uses Pikachu and Torracat against Guzma. Pikachu has some unfinished business with Golisopod.
