Wasn't there a Japanese opening before that showed Ash's Pidgeot and Butterfree and they didn't appear in the series at all?

Does anyone want to hear them?

Ah, yes, just checked, and they were in Spurt!.
It's an opening, so it almost certainly has no relevance for the series proper, just found it strange that Primeape was at the lab; Butterfree and Pidgeot were just in generic locations, IIRC.

Was thinking about this...if Ash had a team with his best Pokemon, who would be part of it? Not including Pikachu.

By the Gods! Return of the king! Ash is finally going to win a pokemon league with the fighting tournament champ.
Only if you hold me!

You can't really not include Pikachu. I'd say:
Pikachu
Charizard
Gible
Torterra
Infernape
Gliscor
...which, uh, I guess basically comes out to his Sinnoh League team.

Replace Torterra with Scraggy and we're golden. Poor ol' Tort never won a single battle after evolving, whereas Scraggy took Ash all the way to the semi-finals of a tournament in which he was handicapped by a type disadvantage and got Tobias'd out of the tourny.

Probably...
Charizard
Infernape (I know they're both Fire, but it's flat out wrong to leave either of these out)
Sceptile
Snorlax
Heracross
Gliscor
Pikachu takes Heracross's place if included.

Ooh? A best Pokemon that Ash has/had list war? Don't mind if I do!
Krokorok - I've never seen a full episode of the Black and White series, but if this evolves into it's third evo. I may have to.
Charizard - Who doesn't love this guy? Especially after the third movie.
Noctowl- Has everyone forgotten that Ash owns a shiny?
Haunter- You just HAD to keep him from getting a Gengar, didn't you writers?
Infernape - Such a great development with this one.

Didn't get the memo regarding the 14th Amendment
This is a general Pokemon nickname question - say you have a nicknamed Pokemon that you named yourself and you want to revert it back to its actual Pokemon name. If you were to go to the name-rater or whatever and change it back to, let's say, Pikachu (because, let's assume, it's a Pikachu). If you were to make it evolve into Raichu, would its name change to Raichu as well or would you have to rename it to Raichu (or name the Pikachu Raichu in order to anticipate that)?
Ash's dream Team? Hat to be:
Pikachu - always puts in a solid performance, can go toe-to-toe with legends.
Charizard - Consistently bails Ash out of battles he should lose, has bested legends.
Infernape - Similar to Charizard, but replace legend killer status with copius amounts of plot armour.
Sceptile - Ash's only fully evolved Grass type, Took out Tobias' Darkrai.
Snorlax - always puts in a good performance, knows how to take a hit.
Kingler - Dat Hax.

It would stay as Pikachu. I'm not sure (and correct me if I'm wrong) but I think if you go to the name rater and leave the spaces empty when nicknaming it, it'll revert back to its default name. It works on the nickname screen upon catching the Pokémon, so it might work there.
Shrennin

I'll try that. That would be kinda annoying if you wanted the default name and there's no real way to get that so the name changes with evolutions.
What about Torterra?
Come back when he wins a fight.

Imagine if they could move.
red/green? blue? yellow?

Why would there be Pokemon on the PokeGAF shirt?
No seriously, what can we legally use anyways?

Probably nothing. It's not like with PonyGAF where they made an original character.

This means we should rip off Smogon and do our own Create-A-Pokemon!
Or not.

We could just design a logo and use that (or use the logo for the PokéGAF Steam group).

I do have an idea that I think would be legal, maybe I'll just run with that.

I guess that's all we've got at this point. GAF Ball?

I recently made a note that Ruby & Sapphire's 10th anniversary (JP release) is due this November the 21st. And either I'm doing the thread, or someone with more time and dedication will want to.
Now who's going to dood it? Either way, I still want to do the next Pokemon Music Appreciation thread this July, around the time of the album release.

If I had a collaborator to help me with the art/banners, I could totally do that. I'm not doing anything this summer, so I'll have lots of time to plan and execute.

Online persona=avatar?
I was thinking of something more along the line of imaging what everyone would look like as a Pokemon trainer.

I'd be down with that.
Although considering how I act around here I'll be lucky if I'm not drawn as a Preschooler/Super Nerd.
Everyone would just be a Lass.
