My sword and shield anime team I’d give to ash is as follows: First take Lumiosetrainerzac’s team for Ash, replace Pikachu with Eevee and pray to god, we get a Galarian Eeveelution. The reason I replace Pikachu with Eevee is in case people are tired of seeing Pikachu in nearly every episode.
@@christinecao4499 Yeah but that just means you’re never tired of seeing Pikachu all the time. There is this person who was sick of seeing this yellow mouse pokémon all the time.

I wouldn't mind seeing ash with one. Tho frosmoth could also work. It's a majestic ice bug and it would give ash more experience with friendship evolutions since, u know, ash is all about bonding with his Pokemon
My idea for ash’s perfect galar team would be pikachu, dark urshifu, corviknight, colossal, Intelion and appletun. Team rockets would be morgrem and Cramorant. Maby they would have a galar yamask and drednaw.

@@eljordinio7647 I personally disagree. It was about time Ash getting a fossil and its a non-traditional capture as well + Corviknight would have clashed with both Dragonite and Lucario.

Interesting team with well balanced types. I love how everyone can Gigantamax so therefore everyone feels like the ace in their own right, great follow up to Alola, for sure. As for Sinnoh promo, Torterra & Infernape could easily mentor Rillaboom while he's a Thwackey.
I would’ve went with Intileon be cause it has that stealthy, smooth vibe like Greninja. And he would get a Applin, for his grass type, and for the dragon typing, it gives me that Gible vibe
Yup. He does have past turtle experience so dreadnaw would work. Although turtles r known to b slow, and the majority of ash's turtles r pathetic so idk it's a double edged sword

Team is a banger. Me personally I would go with Pikachu. Cinderace. Toxtricity Rillaboom Dracovish Urshifu(Single Strike) Pikachu: Thunderbolt...Electroweb...Iron Tail... Quick Attack Cinderace: Pyro Ball...Iron Head...High Jump Kick...Bulk Up Toxtricity: Boomburst...Thunder Punch...Gunk Shot...Rising Voltage Rillaboom: Drum Beating...Hammer Arm...Acrobatics...Knock Off Dracovish: Fishious Rend...Dragon Rush...Ice Fang...Stomping Tantrum Urshifu: Close Combat...Aerial Ace...Wicked Blow...Surging Strikes Pikachu , Cinderace , Toxtricity, and Urshifu can G-max. Reasoning: Pikachu: Bc Its Pikachu come on Cinderace: Could be inspired by Ash and always try and race him everywhere. Always losing as a Scorbunny and Raboot But being the fastest of his mons in the end. Would be a pretty funny side thing like when Aipom took Ashs hat.Cinderace just matches Ashs energy. Toxtricity: Ash has never had any electric types except Pikachu. Would be interesting for him to catch it as a low self esteemed Toxel, but Pikachu always motivates him. Rillaboom: I love Rillaboom. Hes the most popular Galar starter. AAnd hes good in battle. I could see it wanting to be the best drummer. Its terrible as a Grookey. Making terrible drumming beats, but Ash helps it to its dream and suceeds. Dracovish: It's one of my favorite fossils ever. Its sad that Ashs in the anime was so weak compared to the rest. Also knowing Water Gun was not helping it at all.Ash catches this Dracovish mostly the same way as in the anime. Urshifu: It fits Ash so well. He would get it from Mustard and it would be like his Greninja/Lucario. The unofficial ace of the region. Its special cuz it learns both of Urshifus signature moves. Yea that's all i got lmao.
It´s cool to see that there´s still SwSh videos. I personally think that a great team (and story would be): Pikachu - Like always. Rillaboom (as the ace of the team) - Because it fits a lot with Ash in terms of personality and fast fighting style and because it would be cool to see him having a badass Rillaboom (with Hop getting inteleon and Goh cinderace because I can´t see Hop with cinderace). Then the three of them could go train at the isle of armor (Ash to train, Hop to do research from the begining because Klara has to take the role of rival in the isle of armor and to get Hop and Goh as part of Project Mew investigating the galarian birds, starting for Moltres since it´s dark type and the tower that Ash will choose is also the dark type to make Urshifu find it and fight againts it, that way connecting both story lines). Then see them go through Mustard trials and training in general to give their other pokemon the gmax factor. It could work because Hop could be the one telling them about the isle of armor (since Leon went there but never finished it, it could be a good motivation for Ash to want to go there and also meet the person that trained Leon). Then the mission to get urshifu to gmax could be given to Ash after he wins the third trial againts Klara. Toxtricity - I know he doesn´t catch electric types to not overshadow pikachu but the way I see it working is by having Ash receiving toxel as an egg and then having pikachu acting as a mentor figure for a bratty toxel (since it´s literally a toxic baby) that then gets admiration towards pikachu and later on evolves into toxtricity during a gym battle. And one that already has the gmax factor. Ash could use it more as a poison type to not overshadow pikachu but with him having it´s arc from learning his signature move and winning againts Piers in a rematch (with him joining that pokemon band called the maximizers that Piers probably owns to make room for Urshifu) . Corviknight because it is a great addition to the team and can use gmax (maybe having a rivalry with hop´s own corviknight). That´s how they meet. Runerigus (because if Ash is going to get a ghost type and a galarian form/regional evolution, I think it makes more sense to give him this pokemon that already fills both roles without taking two slots on his team like farfetch´d and gengar currently do (and put these two in Rinto´s team since he is a cool rival along with his gallade). Dracovish (with ash finding the mysterious fossils and creating much more build up and mystery about which of the four fossils he is going to get) and it also keeps the dragon type in the team without overlapping with another dragon type since they´re pretty OP. With dragonite also in Rinto´s team. Urshifu single strike style (I already explained how he gets it). And finally cramorant. I know I just mentioned the thing about the type overlap but it´s not an OP pokemon and it could work amazingly well as a comic relief character since it eats a lot just like Ash (probably steeling food from him), with the contrast between how badass corviknight is and how funny cramorant looks and it would be hilarious to see it using surf or dive and getting Pikachu. By the way, the clothes you gave Ash in the thumbnail look so much better than what he wears in Pokemon Journeys. Also, sorry for the long comment.
I think it is a cooler team to see ash have, but replacing pikachu is a bold move that I think most people won’t like. Mostly because pikachu is basically a staple in any ash team
@@eljordinio7647 I think Dracovish is the best gen 8 fossil pokemon, and it’s nice to see ash use such a wildcard pokemon. Granted it doesn’t fit ash as his pokemon but still it’s pretty cool though
Honestly, if we were going based on patterns, he would have all 3 Starters. Johto was the last time we saw him have all 3 up until Unova, Hoenn and Kalos restricted him to one and then Sinnoh and Alola gave him two. It would only make sense seeing the pattern from this perspective. Obviously I agree on Pikachu and Corviknight and I think it'd be better for Ash to go with Water-Style Urshifu seeing as he's a go with the flow type of battler like Goku is: thinking of situations in the moment and flowing with that same rhythm. As to how he would be inspired to do so: Marnie would berate Ash for battling with such wild tactics that obviously didn't work on Piers and that is why he lost. She would then suggest Ash train with Mustard and bring up needing to find his old flow and rhythm again as his battle with Piers shook him up more than any battle before. It would give Mustard the idea of giving Ash Kubfu and telling him to train with it and mimic its movements like the waves on the beach or in the sea in general as a callback to how he fought Brawly in the rematch for the Knuckle Badge and thus inspire the Water-Style Evolution
Plus the fire starter pattern, Charizard, Quilava, None, Infernape, Pignite, None, Incineroar, then it means that he should get a Raboot and leave it that stage
I think my team would be: Pikachu, Corvinight, Rillaboom, Centiskorch, Dracovish and Urshifu. Then in rotation with them Sirfetch’d, Toxtricity and Galarian Darmanitan.
I really like this team, though I wasn't expecting Centiskorch. The team I'd give Ash is Pikachu, Rillaboom, Corviknight, Sirfetch'd, Dracovish and Alcremie/Grimmsnarl. Leaning more towards Alcremie. I didn't give him a fire type as in Kalos, Ash didn't have a grass type and he didn't have a water type in Alola. I'd like to try and even things out without giving him a fire type here. If i had to though, probably Cinderace or Centiskorch. I love Ash's Sirfecth'd and Dracovish so they get to stay. Like you, Grookey fits Ash the best of the 3 starters and he should definitely have the regional bird. I gave Ash Alcremie because he only has one fairy type with Mimey but it hasn't used a fairy type move. Plus I loved the bond Ash had with the Alcremie he worked with in episode 82. I always loved thinking that Ash would catch an Impidimp but after you said it seemed to fit Team Rocket more, my mind changed quite quickly. Sorry that this was a long comment😂
The Pokémon I would choose are Pikachu (he is pikachu) Cramorant (he needs love) Garchomp (to support the sinnoh remakes) Rillaboom (I love grookey. That’s it) Urshifu single strike (urshifu) Galarian farfetch’d (he is cool) Rotations: centiskorch, orbeetle
I'll surely give ash an Inteleon. Sobble would be a perfect fit for ash's team as its both cute and also wimpy. Ash would raise it from a scaredy cat into a fierce battler. The Urshifu arc might be smaller but we can see sobble's personality change throughout the entire series. Its base stats are impressive and the ability to go invisible would be awesome. Much like chimchar, Sobble would be another pokemon abandoned by a trainer who thought sobble was weak, then ash would catch sobble. I know you're saying "but it can't be the same as infernape's storyline" ; hold on there now ; Unlike infernape, Sobble would defeat his original trainer, who already caught a drednaw, by staying as sobble (i guess where you're going... yes its just like tepig's storyline but better). Then ash would continue sobble to train all the way upto Inteleon.
I have a crazy theory and it might not hold up at this point, but I think the anime may be dividing into two separate timelines after journeys one for Galar and one for Paldea the Paldea anime will take place after Journeys and the new timeline for the Galar region will follow the formula we wanted to see and make Journeys non canon.
For funzies, I'll run down what I think each member final moveset could be. Now keep in mind that since this is the anime these won't be competitve movesets. Alright, let's go: Pikachu: Same moveset from SM. Pretty easy. Rillaboom: Drum Beating, Razor Leaf, Drain Punch and Boomburst Corviknight: Steel Wing, Drill Peck, Air Slash and Hurricane Drednaw: Water Gun, Liquidation, Rock Tomb and Crunch Centiskorch: Flame Wheel, Fire Lash, Fire Blast and Lunge Urshifu: Wicked Blow, Aerial Ace, Bulk Up and Focus Punch
Great video! I just did an “Ash run” for my sword game before seeing this. My team was: Pikachu, Urshifu single strike, Sirfetch’d, Blastoise (brought back Squirtle to train him), Purrserker, and Cinderace. Really fun team and experiment i think!
These are pretty good choices but I think I'd make a couple changes. Especially considering Kubfu is technically Legendary, and Galar isn't a region with such emphasis on the Legendaries/etc. being a part of everyday life like Alola was. First, I'd say Sirfetch'd SHOULD be Ash's regional bird, even if it's one that cannot fly. And that could be something that gets Ash confused and even at odds with it as a Farfetch'd due to his own familiarity. Another Pokemon that can fly should be here, though I do admit I struggle to pick the right one. Second, I think a Mime Jr. should join his team and evolve into Galarian Mr. Mime, MAYBE Mr. Rime as well? I don't know whether this fits as a replacement for Urshifu, but it leads to a lot of funny stuff with Mimey back home. If not that, give it to a companion. Heck, do a trade deal like with Ambipom and Buizel. The rest, depends how you feel on there being more than 6 team members, another Electric type, the better Rock or Fire types...but those are the changes I'd make. Also a companion absolutely needs to have Yamper. This is non-negotiable.
Kubfu is a legendary that starts small and needs bonding and training. Galar literally has a place to catch all legendaries and murals of legensd all over the place how the hell is it not connected to legends? Kubfu is honestly the only legendary I can see Ash catching
Please no, If it's for training the Gengar like Charizard did, I can accept that but releasing Gengar and giving to Allister is a slap to the face for fans.
I'm personally not the biggest fan of Rillaboom cause with it's drum, it kind of incetivises being in a singular place in opposition to Ash's usual gameplan which usually involves high movement. I think just Thwakey would be fine but we all know how people are when someone dares to prefer a Pokemon not to evolve in the anime.
I feel it's usually easier to write high octane battles with more agile Pokemon. Battles involving less mobile members would have to lean VERY hard into the tactical side in order to make up for it.
@@eljordinio7647 it's as fast as Venusaur and Venusaur is pretty slow in the anime. On top of that, that stupid drum is too big for him to be agile. Inteleon is far more better choice. Plus, after we saw how annoying Grookey is, I don't want him anywhere near Ash
@@mr.mystery9940 rilaboom also has a more agile build than venusaur tho so he could potentially move faster in the anime. Plus like sirfetch'd used his shield as a ranged weapon against Bea, rilaboom could potentially use his drum as a projectile too
Ash is either a Bird Keeper or Grass Specialist He mostly chooses Grass starters and has kept a Bird in every generation prior to Galar And you have the Starter typing + Pikachu + Flying combo, cool
Honestly I would give Ash toxitricty and make him something of a big brother figure to Pikachu. Like he get's super protective of Pikachu and when Team rocket messes with the little mouse he get's particauarly brutal with them. Hehe I think that would be fun.
Ash (on rotation): Pikachu Corvinknight Rillaboom Sirfetch’d Espeon Dracovish Urshifu Lucario Brock (I think Brock should return): Sudowoodo Croagunk Comfey Stonjourner Orbeetle Female Protagonist (goal is to catch a diverse range of Pokémon and become a Pokémon professor): Inteleon Appletun Farfetch’d Galarian Rapidash Whilrlipede Dragapult Team Rocket: Meowth James: Galarian Weezing Cramorant Morpeko Jessie: Sandaconda Thievul Wobuffet
I'd give our boy: Pikachu- duh Rillaboom- it's a band pokemon. It has to be as enthusiastic as Ash. I can see the two jamming out regularly Corviknight- because tradition Dracovish- Weird mons need love too. It's already proven to give off "it's so ugly! I love it!" energy in Journeys Sirfetch'd- why not? He already has one in Journeys. Plus it's an easy Galar form advert. Obstagoon- similar to Rillaboom. I can see it being the troublemaker that gets policed by Sirfetch'd or Pikachu. It can have a rivalry/idolizing Piers Obstagoon as it goes through its evolutionary stages
For companions, Gloria's and obvious candidate. I'm not sure on what I'd want her to do yet but I feel like she would get Sobble, Alcremie and Eldegoss as her team. As for conion #2, I think it should be an original character since I can't really think of any other male character or trainer class to fit the role. Let's call him Brayden. I think Brayden would want to become a Ranger to help protect the Wild Area and other places around Galar. His team would have Boltund and Orbeetle.
I had an idea for a character named Darin. He'd have Clobbopus (not grapploct), Toxtricity, Cramorant and Flapple (He had caughta Drakloak but traded it with Ash's Flapple)
I know it's pretty unlikely but imagine at the end of the anime were Ash's final team will be the exact same as Red, with the addition of Pikachu's Z-Crystal Pikashunium Z with it's Z-Move 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt. Makes perfect sense since Red is Ash's game counterpart.
I don't think that would be appropriate though. For that, his Lapras would have to return and his Bulbasaur and Squirtle would have to full evolve. Also completely Kanto team would shaft the rest of Ash's other region Pokemon, which wouldn't be very appropriate since Ash is much more than just his Kanto team.
i think the pokemon anime could put both victor, and gloria into the story, as victor could show up a few times, and gloria could be a companion, with hop
If limited to Galar, my opinion -: Pikachu (Of course) Dracovish (Broken and Ash's first fossil) Rillaboom (Cinderace doesn't fit and Ash already has Inteleon) Galarian Weezing (Fits the British theme for Ash in Galar) Runerigus (I mean if Ash doesn't get Gengar, then may as well be Runerigus) Galarian Articuno ( Legendary required. Also as Ash did not have Alolan forms, give him Galarian) Also Runerigus and Galarian Weezing would be a great throwback to James Yamask and Weezing
Dracovish may b broken but design wise, it just doesn't fit. Swap in dreadnaw, or Inteleon as a water type or Dragapult as a dragon type and it'd b better. And Galarian weezing... Also doesn't really fit design wise for ash. Like dracovish it's pretty ugly. I'd have gone with perserker or Toxtricity instead (no electric type will ever overshadow ash's best friend)
@@theboiclobbopus2342 it starts out as a cute little bug that ash could raise into a beast of a battler like he did with leavanny Plus bug/ice is unique
Furthest from my mind BUT this is an Awesome Idea for a Video I was surprised about The Final Two Members BUT I think they do fit well for Ash IF I were to add for Additional Members for Auxiliary would be KAMON🥊 , Dragapault🐉👻 (just for a nod to reference Dragonite & Gengar), AND/OR Toxtricity☠️
ill be honest I was really disappointed that ash didn't go through the gym challenge and have an adventure in Galar Pokemon journeys is amazing and I'm looking forward to the legends Arceus arc but we missed loads of opportunities for episodes set in Galar i had an idea for them so if anyone wants to give a summary of an episode you would like to see in sword and shield anime if it was set in Galar
If I was to make Ash's team I would make it Pikachu,Thwackey,Cinderace,dracovish,Corviknight and Single strike Urshifu but your team is still great Zack! 👍
Stupendous video about the generation that was thrown under the bus. This team video spark an idea to me. Can you make an anime team video for Hop & Gloria please?
I think we all can agree that the character designs for all the Galar gym leaders is just beyond amazing. 🙌
yes!!! some of the best in the franchise in my opinion
Yeah! Such a shame that Journeys is screwing them over.

2:34 Ash be like : Reject humanity. Return to monke.
The team that Zac gave him for a Proper Sword and Shield anime series is equally amazing to me! 😊
Hodge/Hoji would also make a great Travel companion/rival in that arc, as well!!!
Honestly, if we were going based on patterns, he would have all 3 Starters. Johto was the last time we saw him have all 3 up until Unova, Hoenn and Kalos restricted him to one and then Sinnoh and Alola gave him two. It would only make sense seeing the pattern from this perspective. Obviously I agree on Pikachu and Corviknight and I think it'd be better for Ash to go with Water-Style Urshifu seeing as he's a go with the flow type of battler like Goku is: thinking of situations in the moment and flowing with that same rhythm. As to how he would be inspired to do so: Marnie would berate Ash for battling with such wild tactics that obviously didn't work on Piers and that is why he lost. She would then suggest Ash train with Mustard and bring up needing to find his old flow and rhythm again as his battle with Piers shook him up more than any battle before. It would give Mustard the idea of giving Ash Kubfu and telling him to train with it and mimic its movements like the waves on the beach or in the sea in general as a callback to how he fought Brawly in the rematch for the Knuckle Badge and thus inspire the Water-Style Evolution
If he were to have all three then all the starters should fully evolve
Plus the fire starter pattern, Charizard, Quilava, None, Infernape, Pignite, None, Incineroar, then it means that he should get a Raboot and leave it that stage
@@eljordinio7647 my sentiments exactly
I already made up of predictions for ash to catch Pokémon:
*Kanto:*
1. Magmar ➡️ Magmortar
2. Articuno
*Galar:*
1. Toxtricity
2. Corviknight
3. Zarude
4. Kubfu ➡️ Urshifu
*Other Pokémon:*
1. Tyranitar (Johto)
2. Latias (Hoenn)
3. Zoroark (Unova)
4. Greninja (Kalos)
5. Zeraora (Alola)
For this it would be
1. Gmax pikachu
2. Rillaboom
3. Corviknight
4. Dracovish
5. Single strike urshifu
6. Grimmsnarl
Instead of rillaboom cinderace would be better
I LOVE the Sword and Shield Font and colour of the thumbnail, it looks so epic! I was wondering what kind of font do you you use for your thumbnails?
The sword and shield font here is the one from the TCG.
I like the Pokémon you choose Zac, great job!
I damn-AWESOMELY agree with this team you've picked out for Ash for a region-traditional anime all the way!
I think my team would be: Pikachu, Corvinight, Rillaboom, Centiskorch, Dracovish and Urshifu. Then in rotation with them Sirfetch’d, Toxtricity and Galarian Darmanitan.
I really like this team, though I wasn't expecting Centiskorch. The team I'd give Ash is Pikachu, Rillaboom, Corviknight, Sirfetch'd, Dracovish and Alcremie/Grimmsnarl. Leaning more towards Alcremie.
I didn't give him a fire type as in Kalos, Ash didn't have a grass type and he didn't have a water type in Alola. I'd like to try and even things out without giving him a fire type here. If i had to though, probably Cinderace or Centiskorch.
I love Ash's Sirfecth'd and Dracovish so they get to stay. Like you, Grookey fits Ash the best of the 3 starters and he should definitely have the regional bird. I gave Ash Alcremie because he only has one fairy type with Mimey but it hasn't used a fairy type move. Plus I loved the bond Ash had with the Alcremie he worked with in episode 82. I always loved thinking that Ash would catch an Impidimp but after you said it seemed to fit Team Rocket more, my mind changed quite quickly.
Sorry that this was a long comment😂
Ash had Talonflame in kalos and rowlet in alola.
@@gyrozeppelli69 he said in kalos he didnt have a grass type and in alola he didnt have a water type
@@AZUAW oh ok.
The Pokémon I would choose are
Pikachu (he is pikachu)
Cramorant (he needs love)
Garchomp (to support the sinnoh remakes)
Rillaboom (I love grookey. That’s it)
Urshifu single strike (urshifu)
Galarian farfetch’d (he is cool)
Rotations: centiskorch, orbeetle
I just realized that all of Ash’s team can Gigantamax! So it really is a solid team!
@@liamtherobot9656 how is that boring?
maybe this could be the 1st time when 1 of ashs companions competes in the leauge
1 Pikachu
2 Cinderace
3 Serfeched
4 Dracofish
5 Urshefu single strike
6 Corvanite
Sorry about my bad grammar
I'll surely give ash an Inteleon.
Sobble would be a perfect fit for ash's team as its both cute and also wimpy. Ash would raise it from a scaredy cat into a fierce battler. The Urshifu arc might be smaller but we can see sobble's personality change throughout the entire series.
Its base stats are impressive and the ability to go invisible would be awesome.
Much like chimchar, Sobble would be another pokemon abandoned by a trainer who thought sobble was weak,
then ash would catch sobble. I know you're saying "but it can't be the same as infernape's storyline" ; hold on there now ;
Unlike infernape, Sobble would defeat his original trainer, who already caught a drednaw, by staying as sobble (i guess where you're going... yes its just like tepig's storyline but better).
Then ash would continue sobble to train all the way upto Inteleon.
Dude thats just re using storylines seriously
Definitely gonna use this Team for a Playthrough
Its good to know that u can tell a good story on how Ash can have what might be his best story
I have a crazy theory and it might not hold up at this point, but I think the anime may be dividing into two separate timelines after journeys one for Galar and one for Paldea the Paldea anime will take place after Journeys and the new timeline for the Galar region will follow the formula we wanted to see and make Journeys non canon.
That was a great vid Zac. I love Grookey!
2 years later and this is Ash's final team in Zac's fan made SW/SH anime.
I love how all of these Pokemon can GMax
Best cameo you will see in your life, Infamous forcing Zac to bring Ash's Sinnon Team back 😂😂😂
This was almost my entire team for my first Shield play-through but I had Toxtrixity and Grapploct instead of Pikachu and Urshifu
Wow you had my exact team
With how Journeys is going, I wish we *did* get a traditional Sword and Shield anime.
For funzies, I'll run down what I think each member final moveset could be. Now keep in mind that since this is the anime these won't be competitve movesets. Alright, let's go:
Pikachu: Same moveset from SM. Pretty easy.
Rillaboom: Drum Beating, Razor Leaf, Drain Punch and Boomburst
Corviknight: Steel Wing, Drill Peck, Air Slash and Hurricane
Drednaw: Water Gun, Liquidation, Rock Tomb and Crunch
Centiskorch: Flame Wheel, Fire Lash, Fire Blast and Lunge
Urshifu: Wicked Blow, Aerial Ace, Bulk Up and Focus Punch
I like how the outfit is based on the Let's go outfit for the player.
1:55 I never expected to see Zac to use a team rocket Clip 😂
Hearing Zac say Infamous felt so fucking weird and cool at the same time.
Great video! I just did an “Ash run” for my sword game before seeing this. My team was:
Pikachu, Urshifu single strike, Sirfetch’d, Blastoise (brought back Squirtle to train him), Purrserker, and Cinderace.
Really fun team and experiment i think!
The art for Galar Ash is great. Also Enter the unknown made a video made a speculative ash galar team and played through sword
These are pretty good choices but I think I'd make a couple changes. Especially considering Kubfu is technically Legendary, and Galar isn't a region with such emphasis on the Legendaries/etc. being a part of everyday life like Alola was.
First, I'd say Sirfetch'd SHOULD be Ash's regional bird, even if it's one that cannot fly. And that could be something that gets Ash confused and even at odds with it as a Farfetch'd due to his own familiarity. Another Pokemon that can fly should be here, though I do admit I struggle to pick the right one.
Second, I think a Mime Jr. should join his team and evolve into Galarian Mr. Mime, MAYBE Mr. Rime as well? I don't know whether this fits as a replacement for Urshifu, but it leads to a lot of funny stuff with Mimey back home. If not that, give it to a companion. Heck, do a trade deal like with Ambipom and Buizel.
The rest, depends how you feel on there being more than 6 team members, another Electric type, the better Rock or Fire types...but those are the changes I'd make. Also a companion absolutely needs to have Yamper. This is non-negotiable.
Kubfu is a legendary that starts small and needs bonding and training. Galar literally has a place to catch all legendaries and murals of legensd all over the place how the hell is it not connected to legends?
Kubfu is honestly the only legendary I can see Ash catching
I've seen some people saying that ash will leave gengar with Alistair I hope he doesn't
That might actually be true but i hope it don't
@@v3nomgaming751 if it is I swear to arceus
Please no, If it's for training the Gengar like Charizard did, I can accept that but releasing Gengar and giving to Allister is a slap to the face for fans.
This team is based! I made a Galar team for Ash exactly like this one except it had Inteleon instead of Drednaw.
I'm personally not the biggest fan of Rillaboom cause with it's drum, it kind of incetivises being in a singular place in opposition to Ash's usual gameplan which usually involves high movement. I think just Thwakey would be fine but we all know how people are when someone dares to prefer a Pokemon not to evolve in the anime.
Unless there's a legit reason behind it (aka they don't want to evolve or they straight up cannot), not evolving should not EVER be an option
I feel it's usually easier to write high octane battles with more agile Pokemon. Battles involving less mobile members would have to lean VERY hard into the tactical side in order to make up for it.
@@heavydonkeykong5190 rilaboom isn't THAT slow
@@eljordinio7647 it's as fast as Venusaur and Venusaur is pretty slow in the anime. On top of that, that stupid drum is too big for him to be agile. Inteleon is far more better choice. Plus, after we saw how annoying Grookey is, I don't want him anywhere near Ash
@@mr.mystery9940 rilaboom also has a more agile build than venusaur tho so he could potentially move faster in the anime. Plus like sirfetch'd used his shield as a ranged weapon against Bea, rilaboom could potentially use his drum as a projectile too
Ash is either a Bird Keeper or Grass Specialist
He mostly chooses Grass starters and has kept a Bird in every generation prior to Galar
And you have the Starter typing + Pikachu + Flying combo, cool
2:33 what episode is that for sun and moon.
My version for a galar team for Ash would be Pikachu, Rillaboom, Corviknight, Dracovish, Grimmsnarl and Dragapult. Maybe Urshifu as well
After sun and moon, this art style is so much easier to look at
This team is pretty solid NGL
The galar arc hasn't begun yet just wait
I imagine his team being Pikachu Twhackey Corviknight Drednaw Centiscorch And Falinks
The gfx designer took it yo another level 🥶
I would give Ash:
Pikachu-GMAX Pikachu
Rillaboom
Dracovish
Corviknight-GMAX Corviknight
Sirfetch’d
Orbeetle-GMAX Orbeetle
Honestly I would give Ash toxitricty and make him something of a big brother figure to Pikachu. Like he get's super protective of Pikachu and when Team rocket messes with the little mouse he get's particauarly brutal with them. Hehe I think that would be fun.
"It's the galar starter that fits Ash the most" Scorbunny left the chat.
Ash (on rotation):
Pikachu
Corvinknight
Rillaboom
Sirfetch’d
Espeon
Dracovish
Urshifu
Lucario
Brock (I think Brock should return):
Sudowoodo
Croagunk
Comfey
Stonjourner
Orbeetle
Female Protagonist (goal is to catch a diverse range of Pokémon and become a Pokémon professor):
Inteleon
Appletun
Farfetch’d
Galarian Rapidash
Whilrlipede
Dragapult
Team Rocket:
Meowth
James:
Galarian Weezing
Cramorant
Morpeko
Jessie:
Sandaconda
Thievul
Wobuffet
Switch out theivel for impidimp
@@andrewgallup6043 Good idea.
That hat is Let's Go Male Protagonist's hat
That's a nice touch
I prefer ash's thumbnail design more than his journeys design
Zac’s next video should be Pokémon of each type he’d want Ash to catch.
So what the anime should have done all along.
I'd give our boy:
Pikachu- duh
Rillaboom- it's a band pokemon. It has to be as enthusiastic as Ash. I can see the two jamming out regularly
Corviknight- because tradition
Dracovish- Weird mons need love too. It's already proven to give off "it's so ugly! I love it!" energy in Journeys
Sirfetch'd- why not? He already has one in Journeys. Plus it's an easy Galar form advert.
Obstagoon- similar to Rillaboom. I can see it being the troublemaker that gets policed by Sirfetch'd or Pikachu. It can have a rivalry/idolizing Piers Obstagoon as it goes through its evolutionary stages
Aside from uglyvish I agree with this team. Tho if u want to give a weird mon more love, try dracozzolt
LOL this whole team Zac made can Gigantamax...
For companions, Gloria's and obvious candidate. I'm not sure on what I'd want her to do yet but I feel like she would get Sobble, Alcremie and Eldegoss as her team. As for conion #2, I think it should be an original character since I can't really think of any other male character or trainer class to fit the role. Let's call him Brayden. I think Brayden would want to become a Ranger to help protect the Wild Area and other places around Galar. His team would have Boltund and Orbeetle.
I had an idea for a character named Darin. He'd have Clobbopus (not grapploct), Toxtricity, Cramorant and Flapple (He had caughta Drakloak but traded it with Ash's Flapple)
The only mistake I have is that Zac is thinking of super effective Pokémon ALL of the time instead of some times.
Incredibly bold of you to assume he’d use type advantages
Excited for this one!😀👍
I know it's pretty unlikely but imagine at the end of the anime were Ash's final team will be the exact same as Red, with the addition of Pikachu's Z-Crystal Pikashunium Z with it's Z-Move 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt.
Makes perfect sense since Red is Ash's game counterpart.
I don't think that would be appropriate though. For that, his Lapras would have to return and his Bulbasaur and Squirtle would have to full evolve. Also completely Kanto team would shaft the rest of Ash's other region Pokemon, which wouldn't be very appropriate since Ash is much more than just his Kanto team.
Red Ash looks so Handsome! Plus it suits because Gmax/Dmax has red clouds and red lights around it!
i think the pokemon anime could put both victor, and gloria into the story, as victor could show up a few times, and gloria could be a companion, with hop
P.S they are twins
I love the 5 second crossover lol
The thumbnail is epok 🥶👍
zac: makes ash's team
me: thats legit my galar team replacing toxtricity
This team definitely looks like an Ash Ketchum team
Awesome job once again, Zac!
If limited to Galar, my opinion -:
Pikachu (Of course)
Dracovish (Broken and Ash's first fossil)
Rillaboom (Cinderace doesn't fit and Ash already has Inteleon)
Galarian Weezing (Fits the British theme for Ash in Galar)
Runerigus (I mean if Ash doesn't get Gengar, then may as well be Runerigus)
Galarian Articuno ( Legendary required. Also as Ash did not have Alolan forms, give him Galarian)
Also Runerigus and Galarian Weezing would be a great throwback to James Yamask and Weezing
Dracovish may b broken but design wise, it just doesn't fit. Swap in dreadnaw, or Inteleon as a water type or Dragapult as a dragon type and it'd b better. And Galarian weezing... Also doesn't really fit design wise for ash. Like dracovish it's pretty ugly. I'd have gone with perserker or Toxtricity instead (no electric type will ever overshadow ash's best friend)
2:55 funny 😄
For me its Pikachu, Corvinight, Rillaboom, Cinderace, Intellion and Urshifu(Single Strike). Honorable mention is Dragapult.
Frosmoth would work too since ash has had friendship evolutions before like Leavanny and Lucario
@@eljordinio7647 Honestly frosmoth doesnt fit him in any way. More contest/jessie/gym leader mon
@@theboiclobbopus2342 it starts out as a cute little bug that ash could raise into a beast of a battler like he did with leavanny
Plus bug/ice is unique
If I made the anime, Ash would have one starter for each region.
Charizard, Feraligatr, Sceptile, Infernape, Samurott, Greninja, Incineroar and Rillaboom. They don't get released.
It turns out Ash hasn't caught a single Galarian pokemon. He caught a half one as in galarian variant Farfetch'd
And it's all coming together as of now.
wait a minute, this is the team Zac chose for the what if anime swsh
Wow! This is actually the team I beat Pokémon Sword with! Although, my Centiskorch was shiny. Way to go, @Zactoshi.
I'd go with...
Rillaboom
Centiskorch
Cramorant (who would constantly try to eat Pikachu)
Galarian Darmanitan
and Grimmsnarl
I personally wanted ash to own a Grimsnarl
Furthest from my mind BUT this is an Awesome Idea for a Video
I was surprised about The Final Two Members BUT I think they do fit well for Ash
IF I were to add for Additional Members for Auxiliary would be KAMON🥊 , Dragapault🐉👻 (just for a nod to reference Dragonite & Gengar), AND/OR Toxtricity☠️
ill be honest I was really disappointed that ash didn't go through the gym challenge and have an adventure in Galar Pokemon journeys is amazing and I'm looking forward to the legends Arceus arc but we missed loads of opportunities for episodes set in Galar i had an idea for them so if anyone wants to give a summary of an episode you would like to see in sword and shield anime if it was set in Galar
Alright mate, spill the beans then, I'm interested.
@@jasonbornot he's born to be a "winner"
He shouldn't care about downgrades
this would take place if he lost to kukui and he became champion like in sun and moon
Only unbelievable part about this is that all of Ashes team members are fully evolved 😂
If I was to make Ash's team I would make it
Pikachu,Thwackey,Cinderace,dracovish,Corviknight and Single strike Urshifu but your team is still great Zack! 👍
Stupendous video about the generation that was thrown under the bus. This team video spark an idea to me. Can you make an anime team video for Hop & Gloria please?
Well do I have news for you
I like the team build up
Ash having Hatenna evolving into Hatterene for coverage👍
Pikachu, Duraudon, Dragapult, Toxtricity, Inteleon, Urshifu
Ash realizes his dream and turns 11
I like how all of this team have gigantamax forms
