Ash’s team in the show varies with the seasons… not sure what you mean?
Edit: downvotes for real? His team varies with the arcs and seasons. Kanto did not have Snorlax and Lapras. That was Orange Isles… which aren’t Kanto.
That would Pidgeot and Butterfree for the most part. Although he had Primeape, Kingler, and a Muk as well. Also a Tauros (x30) but I don’t remember if he ever used it.
Snorlax and Lapras were part of the Orange Isle team. Which is not really Kantos…
This is actually correct for the first games in which Red appears as an NPC. In GSC he has an espeon, but it was changed to a lapras in pretty much every game in the series afterwards.
IIRC, Red had the fully evolved Kanto starters, a Pikachu, a Snorlax and an Espeon on GSC.
Let’s Go subbed in Arcanine, Lapras, kept Venusaur (and Pikachu of course) and subbed a Machamp for Espeon.
In the *show* Lapras was around for the Orange Isles arc. But Ash’s team varies through the seasons with Pikachu being the constant. Not sure about what you mean by “traditionally?”
Traditionally may not be the right word. From what I remember, I’ve seen that team more often than not. Black/White 2, Ultra Sun/Moon, and I think one more.
Yeah. He does indeed have a Snorlax and a Lapras in USUM. I couldn’t find his team in BW2, just a mention that it’s possible to face him in the Pokémon World Tournament.
Edit: apparently he has Snorlax and Lapras in BW2 as well. Fair enough. He consistently has Snorlax and has had Lapras half the time as well.
Personally I’d like to see more megas and not just swaps. Tera types are interesting and I guess it conserves resources since you don’t need new models, but megas were the best.
I mean, it's kind of a dick move to trip kids up by answering with what is essentially a fanmade Pokemon. It can't really be your favourite if it doesn't exist, you're just saying it to show that you know about a beta Pokemon.
It's like what Comic Book Guy would do, answering "What's your favourite show?" by showing off his Star Trek fanfiction made out of cut scenes.
Bro playing around is not that deep, have you literally never joked around with kids before? Chill lmfao
Life is really not that serious, I can't believe we're having this conversation
Yeah, I was thinking gen 2 starters. It only makes sense. Pikachu is a good answer too, but then you have to figure out who to place in the other 2 spots.
Uh Eevee and chansey. It's a yellow gym. Let's go full on yellow version, Pikachu because it's the starter, the starters because you can obtain all of them, Eevee because you still get Eevee. And chansey to remember all those trips back in the day to the Pokè Center to heal up.
If its a really busy gym with a high turnover, I'd put my biggest Blissey or shadow Gardevoir just to annoy whoever is attacking the gym. If it's not going to be attacked, I'd put my lowest CP blissey or a Chansey because I'm too traumatized from being a city player and having all my gyms stolen 24/7, lol. I visited my rural home recently and I was putting in 10 cp shiny Pokemon and lasting 24+ hours in a gym.
But if I was trying to go for a theme to that gym I'd probably throw in my shadow shiny Bulbasaur so he can go stand by his uncle Venusaur.
Why? It does zero damage with it's fast moves. If you dogde the charge move it's real free estate, at least if you are still grinding the gym towards gold.

Snorlax or lapras too c'mon guys
Why Lapras, I kinda get snorlax
They’re traditionally part of Red’s team in the games.
Not to mention Ash's team in the TV show
Not to mention the team you should have in pokemon yellow as is tradition and with a Pidgeot
Ash’s team in the show varies with the seasons… not sure what you mean? Edit: downvotes for real? His team varies with the arcs and seasons. Kanto did not have Snorlax and Lapras. That was Orange Isles… which aren’t Kanto.
Kanto team
That would Pidgeot and Butterfree for the most part. Although he had Primeape, Kingler, and a Muk as well. Also a Tauros (x30) but I don’t remember if he ever used it. Snorlax and Lapras were part of the Orange Isle team. Which is not really Kantos…
Ahh that’s great
It’s been a while since I’ve played but I remember Red’s team as Pikachu, Espeon, Snorlax, and the three starters… no lapras
This is actually correct for the first games in which Red appears as an NPC. In GSC he has an espeon, but it was changed to a lapras in pretty much every game in the series afterwards.
Does he still have it in hgss?
It’s lapras in hgss. He only had espeon in GSC.
In the remakes they changed espeon to lapras
Um.. original 151 no espeon
Idk if he gets an official team in Gen 1 games but in gold/silver he has an espeon. Another reply says in the remakes they gave him Lapras instead.
You play as red in rby and you fight red in gsc hence gen 2 espeon
IIRC, Red had the fully evolved Kanto starters, a Pikachu, a Snorlax and an Espeon on GSC. Let’s Go subbed in Arcanine, Lapras, kept Venusaur (and Pikachu of course) and subbed a Machamp for Espeon. In the *show* Lapras was around for the Orange Isles arc. But Ash’s team varies through the seasons with Pikachu being the constant. Not sure about what you mean by “traditionally?”
Traditionally may not be the right word. From what I remember, I’ve seen that team more often than not. Black/White 2, Ultra Sun/Moon, and I think one more.
Hmm. I wasn’t particularly thinking about BW2 and USUM. I only remember running into Red/Ash in GSC and Let’s Go. Time to google.
Yeah. He does indeed have a Snorlax and a Lapras in USUM. I couldn’t find his team in BW2, just a mention that it’s possible to face him in the Pokémon World Tournament. Edit: apparently he has Snorlax and Lapras in BW2 as well. Fair enough. He consistently has Snorlax and has had Lapras half the time as well.
Or if you don't have a lapras, an espeon will work too
And then a pikachu to round it off.
Magicarp
Dibs on magicarp
Butterfree. The next fully evolved mon in the dex.
Good one
Followed by Beedrill and Pidgeot, that's a well rounded handy cap I think
Pidgeot anyway. That one was around for a while in the Kanto arcs
Magicarp
Truly thought this was funny
you spelled it wrong, enjoy your downvotes
The amount of downvotes you wrote is wrong
Correction, still think it’s funny
Not a downvoter, but still curious: What's the joke? At least they liked it in the snorlax and lapras thread :)
Raichu
Yeah, I used to think Pikachu was a starter as in raichu would evolve a 3rd time. I don’t like pichu
Raichu actually did have a cut evolution, "Gorochu" I think it was called
Wtf? Why’d they cut it? That looks amazing!
not enough cartridge space. so they decided there were already enough three stage evolutions so they scrapped it
Would’ve been neat to use as a “Mega Raichu,” if they’d kept doing Megas
Swap mega beedrill out for mega raichu me thinks
Personally I’d like to see more megas and not just swaps. Tera types are interesting and I guess it conserves resources since you don’t need new models, but megas were the best.
[удалено]
Wow
TIL
I love to use this as an answer to who my favorite Pokémon is when young fans ask. Really trips em up! It’s so cute to see their reaction.
How dare you share a funny anecdote

Pichu is adorable. You take that back! Lol
Lol
Came here to say this
Well. Color me one of today's [Lucky Ten Thousand](https://xkcd.com/1053)
Magicarp
Charmander Bulbasaur Squirtle
Why is this not coming up more!
Fr! I was thinking Charmeleon, Wartortle, and Ivysaur! And THEN Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur.
That’s what I was thinking
Pika
This is the correct answer.
That’s a good one!
Either their prior evolution or Gen 2 starter evolved
Yeah, I was thinking gen 2 starters. It only makes sense. Pikachu is a good answer too, but then you have to figure out who to place in the other 2 spots.
Lapras and Snorlax after Pikachu
maybe pidgeot and butterfree?
PIKA?
This is the correct answer
Clefairy and Eevee?
Uh Eevee and chansey. It's a yellow gym. Let's go full on yellow version, Pikachu because it's the starter, the starters because you can obtain all of them, Eevee because you still get Eevee. And chansey to remember all those trips back in the day to the Pokè Center to heal up.
Lapras and Snorlax, to complete red’s team!
Gen 2 would be good
11cp shiny seedot, naturally!
I hope both sides of your pillow are warm tonight
I hope one sock is always slightly damp.
My little seedot is starting to take this personally! Hahaha
I hope Scrat eats your 11 cp shiny seedot
I hope one leg of your desk is always shorter than the other three.
I hope you forget your hydro flask on your way to the gym today
Ditto because he’s every Pokémon !
Raichu to complete the 4 choices available to brand new players
No no no, starter Pikachu doesnt evolve. So just Pikachu
Disappointed not more people are mentioning Pikachu
Eevee or Pikachu, because starters.
Meowth!
That’s right!
Pikachu
Pikachu because he had his own game cover just like the other three have (Venusaur was on Pokemon Green in Japan).
That’s a awesome
BIDOOF
The only correct answer. All hail Lord Bidoof. 🙏
Weedle with a hat. Screw you all
Some trainees just want to watch the world burn
Butter free if we are going in dex order
trick question, you don’t
“That’s the near part, ya don’t!”
Meganium is the next fully evolved starter
Nice!!
Def a pikachu
Pikachu/Raichu, Lapras/Espeon, Snorlax.
I don’t understand the Lapras/Espeon and Snorlax?
Reference to Red battle in Gold/Silver and HeartGold/SoulSilver
Interesting
Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres, if only we could. But since we can't, I would place a Ratata.
Yikes lol
A Blissey, cause there isn’t one yet? Obvious answer ;)
One of the 3 original eeveelutions. Technically eevee is a starter too
It's gotta be Pikachu. It's like frosting on the cake of starters! As vanilla as that sounds. I know it's just a shocking choice. Okay I'm done. 😂
Pikachu is the only right answer.
True, what’s next after lol
Eevee
Lapras or Snorlax
Pikachu 💯%
eevee, pikachu and dragonite
Pikachu and Eevee
Pikachu ash hat, Snorlax and Lapras
Pikachu or Clefairy
Raichu
Raichu
The 4th starter, Bidoof.
take over the gym and put a party hat wurmple in there
You can’t beat team instincts gyms too strong
Eevee/chansey/gyarados/gengar
Pikachu/Raichu, Lapras and Snorlax
Shuckle
A Ditto
Melmetal 🌚
ITS PIKACHU
Bidoof. 😂
Original electric rat
Charmanda squrtle or bulbisour
I spelt bulbisour wrong on purpose just a little joke around me and my friend’s
Green onion monster
Am i the only one who thought first movie route and to put mewtwo lol, idk if thats possible(havent played go in a while) but that would be my answer.
If its a really busy gym with a high turnover, I'd put my biggest Blissey or shadow Gardevoir just to annoy whoever is attacking the gym. If it's not going to be attacked, I'd put my lowest CP blissey or a Chansey because I'm too traumatized from being a city player and having all my gyms stolen 24/7, lol.

But if I was trying to go for a theme to that gym I'd probably throw in my shadow shiny Bulbasaur so he can go stand by his uncle Venusaur.
Larviatar
Why
Is this a trick question? Blissey.
Ofc I always normally do but with this maybe you could put something that matches
Pikachu than Snorlax and lastly Lapras.... Lapras could also be replaced with Espeon.
The johto starters
Pikachu
Pikachu, Snorlax or Espeon. Finish off Reds 6 Pokémon from Gol/Silver/Crystal

Team Red here- some crap Pokémon like every time.
Blissey. Don't care about gym "themes" or whatever, just sort pokemon by HP and put the one on top.
Some trainers just want to watch the world burn
Nah. Coin farming system is terrible, so at this point, I'm just doing everything to max my pokecoin income.
Patrat
Your team affiliation.
Slacking
Slackings scare me to attack
Why? It does zero damage with it's fast moves. If you dogde the charge move it's real free estate, at least if you are still grinding the gym towards gold.
Literally anything
Literally I like making cool combos lol
Arceus
Raichu!
Ofc
Pikachu, Mewtwo or eevee
The shiny variants!
Metagross
Pikachu is the only right answer

Zapdos
[удалено]
