As expected, not too well. Had two take two screenshots and paste them together of the missing Pokémon, haha.
As for a summary again of the ones I forgot about:
- Pokémon I could picture, but forgot the names of: Thwackey; Chewtle; Carkol; Arrokuda; Barraskewda; Sizzlipede; Morgrem; Stonjourner; Dracozolt; Arctozolt; Drakloak; Spectrier. (For Dracozolt and Arctozolt I obviously only forgot about the ‘zolt’ part of their names.)
- Forgot about completely: Blipbug; Dottler; Gossifleur; Clobbopus; Grapploct; Galarian Corsola; Cursola; Pinchurchin; Galarian Darumaka; Galarian Darmanitan; Glastrier; Gigantamax Kingler; Gigantamax Garbodor; Hisuian Decidueye; Hisuian Samurott; Ursaluna; Hisuian Basculin; Basculegion; Hisuian Qwilfish; Overqwil; Hisuian Avalugg; Hisuian Braviary; Palkia Origin Forme; Dialga Origin Forme.
(Forgot there were two different horses for Calyrex. Not that I knew the name of Spectrier either, though.
I wasn’t even aware Kingler had a Gigantamax form to begin with. First time seeing it. And I do remember the Palkia and Dialga pony form reveals in early spoilers of gen 8, and seeing them now, I also remember the TCG cards for them, but I don’t think either has been shown in any anime episode/movie yet..

I imagine most of the Hisuian forms were not well represented in the anime. I don’t think the TCG had much of a focus on them either.

Nice job! I had a hard time memorizing all the galarian forms. Had to think for a few extra seconds on some of the Hisuian forms too.

Yeah same. There were a few that took a sec to recall.

You’re right, most of those haven’t been in the anime yet either. Only Hisuian Growlithe appeared multiple times, and I also remember an episode with Zorua and Zoroark.
I’ve just looked it up, and if Bulbapedia is up to date (probably not), then it’s just those three I mentioned and Hisuian Braviary that have appeared in the anime thus far.
Although I also remember seeing some of them in the little outro songs and sections, after the episodes are complete.
But yeah, a lot less love than the Alolan forms, that’s for sure.

It was probably too difficult for the anime to send Ash back in time to Hisui to encounter most of the Pokemon found there. Would have had to completely halt the Galar storyline.

I didnt go as long this time because I knew there was no way I was going to finish. I did alright, kinda annoyed I missed boltund because I used it, applin line because I was thinking of dipplin and hydrapple while my mind was on dlc pokemon, sandaconda because I also used it, toxtricity as well, clobbopus because I got the evo, and Liligant because I actually see it regularly.
