Pokemon with abilities:
So are there going to be trainers? Or are we only getting Pokémon?
for holos, it looks like
beedrill
raichu
nidoking
vileplume
machamp
dodrio
gengar
electrode
marowak
wheezing
chansey
starmie
mime
gyarados
ditto
vaporeon
jolteon
flareon
omastar
kabutops
aerodactyl
articuno
moltres
dragonite
mewtwo
pre-SV, i’d say any of these have a chance at ARs, but since this gen began, anyone could get an AR
this image is just of the pokemon. there are trainers
Strongest set identity since Eevee Heroes
this is the first regular holo for dodrio if anyone is a dodrio stan. seaking is still without a holo after all of these years
Does this image show SR’s, SAR’s or UR’s? The lack of AR’s is kind of a bummer to me but I can deal if there are still secret rares to be revealed
This is just the first 151 Pokémon in the main set, of 165. AR, SR, SAR and UR numbered after 165 are not revealed yet
Okay then, gonna jack my expectations back up to 11 – thank you!
No Chansey ex stings 
Holding out for those secret rares to have a damn fine egg
April 28 update
Yuu Nishida
GIDORA
kantaro
Additional note: this Erika is wearing the same kimono as the original holo from Gym 1 Leaders’ Stadium (aka Gym Heroes), respective of the games Pokémon Yellow, FireRed & LeafGreen
P.S. I’m hoping that if she gets an SAR, it will be by Yoriyuki Ikegami. Celadon gym garden with Venusaur, Victreebel and Vileplume will pair perfectly with their Gardenia’s Vitality
I feel like I’m missing something here … they’re entirely different poses in entirely different environments. 
I was afraid to say it, but I agree, they’re just too different for me to have made the link without someone telling me.
poses, yeah. environments? no
I really don’t see it…
Base Bulbasaur shows a large tree, a forest in the distance, and dense vegetation consisting of tall grass, flowers, and ferns. 151 Bulbasaur stands in an open field with a mountain range in the distance.
Base Charmander shows a steppe-like environment with a couple of rocks scattered about and mountains in the distance. 151 Charmander shows a grassy field with clumps of trees.
Base Squirtle stands atop a pile of round rocks in a lake with a forest in the distance. 151 Squirtle dives from atop a solid cliff featuring two small waterfalls.
idk i’m being less nitpicky.
base bulba shows dirt and grass with some plants.
151 bulba shows dirt and grass. yeah no plants, but who’s to say it isn’t just standing in a different spot
base charmander shows a field with some rocks, grass, and a bigger rock formation in the background.
so does 151 charmander
base squirtle is in some water surrounded by trees
so is 151 squirtle
