    Ok, well i have a theory about ash's mystery fire poke. I think, eventually, that in a battle against ash, Chimchar loses and costs Paul the match, making Paul think that Chimchar is as useless as all the other pokemon he's set free. So he either tosses the ball to Ash and says some snotty remark like chimchar deserves to be with a pathetic trainer like ash, or he does the whole release thingy with the blue light from the pokeball and walks off and ash decides to take chimchar under his wing
    then, much much later, in a Pokemon league tournament match and it comes down to the final match and ash releases chimchar or whatever evo it is and it beats pauls elekid evo and ash whens the match

    feel free to leave comments

    Could happen. With Paul's attitude, it's very likely.

    Ash could also just get a Ponyta.. but that's from 1st generation so probably not.

    Good theory.

    Wow...that would be cool. Though I doubt that Chimchar would just get handed to Ash, more likely he'd be battling Paul, Chimchar loses and gets released, then Ash meets up with him later and catches it. Of course, I doubt that Ash will get his Chimchar, because this way everyone (except Brock) gets a starter. I'm hoping for a nice showdown between Pikachu and Elekid.

    I suppose it could happen, but Chimchar is Paul's Shinou starter, I don't really expect him to release it. I mean... it did do well in the gym battles, and he was satisfied enough with the result.

    Maybe Ashy just won't have a fire type this time round.

    i cant really think of ash with a ponyta, if he wanted one, he had a thousand chances in Kanto
    Well there was that ep where Ash rode the Rapidash ages ago... so maybe there's a chance.

    I can't imagine him with one, either. Has anyone seen him own a Pokemon outside of the region he was in, besides Pikachu and maybe Donphan (Don't remember when he got it) and the ones he just uses to bring ni leagues? The writers want people to see the new Sinnoh Pokemon in action, not ones we've seen many years before.

    That's true, but it's not like we saw much of Ponyta. Like Flavaquil said, only two episodes, and Ash seemed a bit attached to the Ponyta - which is why it evolved.

    About the theory, yeah, it's likely that Paul would release Chimchar if it lost a battle, but it was his starting Pokemon, so I don't really think it would be even like Paul to release his Chimchar. If Ash does get a Chimchar (which would be unusual, I don't remember Ash having the same Pokemon as one of the other main characters in any other seasons) it would probably be a different one, and it can battle against Paul's (like Ash's Turtwig battled against Gardenia's)

    Actually, I'd consider it MUCH more likely Chimchar would see how Ash treats his pokemon in a battle and turn on Paul...

    But I'm still stickin with the Cyndaquil/Ponyta as his fire pokemon theory =D

    Ehh, maybe a Growlithe? ^^; I can't really see Paul releasing his Chimchar. Oh yeah, he could get Cindaqil back I guess... ^^;

    Ah I forgot Ash had Turtwig. x.x

    Ash has only gotten one starter Pokemon lately. They might stick to that, so yeah.. Now I don't know if he'll get Chimchar.

    Maybe he just won't get a fire pokemon at all. Yeah, we'll see his team eventually at least.. Won't be a mystery like the GS ball.

    I think that in one episode ash will see a very hurt chimchar laying in the middle of nowhere and ash gets it and sees that it is pauls so ash takes it to a pokemon center and then they are all talking about what could of happened and at first chimchar doesnt like ash but then it see all his other pokemon happy and paul comes in and say oh there is that stupid pathetic chimchar again and ash says "WHAT!!!" and paul says my stupid chimchar wouldnt listen to a word I said and it was to week for me anyways so I left it there and ash is just completly freaking out and trys to punch paul but brock and dawn stop him and nurse joy and officer jenny come in and break it up and paul gets in trouble for pokemon endangerment so chimchar likes ash more now and decides to go with ash :D that is whats going to happen

    Well, true, XD But staple characters havent had same pokemon... there... yea... *shifty eyes*

    Let us not forget that, for quite a few episodes, May and Jessie BOTH had Wurmples...and at the same time, no less.

    I personally wouldn't mind Ash taking one of Paul's released Pokemon and creaming him with it. I guess that Chimchar WOULD be a perfect example...

    He never said officially that Chimchar was his starter, nor did professor rowan know him when he whitnessed their battle. I think Elekid is his first pokemon, seeing that its way more powerful than any of his other pokes, and Paul seems much closer to Elekid too, well as close as Paul CAN get to a pokemon....

    My main reason for beleiving this is that Rowan didn't seem to know him. And he would, because the prof is supposed to be there when a new trainer gets its first pokemon
