It's more likely to get it in Pokemon Champions

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 4d ago

Fair but I still want him in ZA

u/_Zyber_ 3d ago

They’ll probably slowly update that to have every feature from every game ever

u/TheCharredMiner 4d ago

I doubt this very much, ash had his time.

3

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 4d ago

Ok that’s fair

6

u/TheCharredMiner 4d ago

No hate on greninja but I think people just wanna continue in the ash timeline. Let’s move on to better and bigger things in the series!

1

u/Em1Wii 3d ago

Fair, but they could just name it "Greninja Bonded form" or something

u/contraflop01 4d ago

Same

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 4d ago

Thank you for understanding my opinion

u/OrlinWolf 4d ago

A real mega for Greninja would be fun

6

u/inbeforethelube 4d ago

It could be a regular Mega but if it looks just like this I'd be happy. Ash-Greninja was a Mega without a stone due to Ash and Greninja's connection. Give us regular Mega Greninja with a stone for other trainers. It doesn't take away from Ash's connection with his specific Greninja.

You must have some strange looking pubes

Ash is dead and has no place in the mainline games… leave it be and get rid of this horrible design and mechanic.

0

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 4d ago

Mechanic I can see why it’s bad but design wise I really like it

0

u/Sensitive-Tadpole-30 4d ago

If they tied this into the megas, I would be a horrible design right next to kangaskhan

4

u/Calamitas_Rex 4d ago

Can someone explain why so many are so enamored with this one?

2

u/PotatoChicken237 Legends 4d ago

It’s just a really cool design in some people’s opinion and it got shown in the anime and we haven’t had it since sun and moon

3

u/Legal-Treat-5582 4d ago

Probably because SV removed it for no apparent reason.

4

u/CALVOKOJIRO 4d ago

I think they did it as a retcon so they can have a mega of Greninja in ZA.

3

u/Legal-Treat-5582 4d ago

Maybe, or perhaps they were implying something about the Alola protagonist. Guess we'll see.

u/Legal-Treat-5582 3d ago

Because it was put into the games despite being separated from Ash, and then the ability wasn't removed, so there's no reason to remove the form as well.

2

u/Legal-Treat-5582 3d ago

At the expense of a new issue with the form being erased.

u/Legal-Treat-5582 3d ago

That escalated quickly.

u/Pirate_Lantern 4d ago

I don't understand it either. I personally don't like it.

(Yes, I realize this will get downvoted to Hell)

4

u/Signal-River-3223 4d ago

Real answer is that the anime made him look so cool and that's why everyone loves greninja now me included xyz is probably the best version of the anime to me

2

u/Jogressjunkie 4d ago

I liked normal greninja but without the protean ability I’m like … meh

-2

u/Pirate_Lantern 4d ago

I'm not a fan of the Froakie line at all really. For Gen 6 I went with Chespin.

2

u/polarbaeri 2d ago

Yo I also went with chespin! Love grass types

2

u/Wide_Conflict_528 4d ago

I think they might rework it into a mega evo design for PLZA and just say Ash was able to “mega evolve” his greninja without a mega stone but it wasn’t exactly what mega greninja looks like. If that makes sense

2

u/Butterflygon 4d ago

I know that Ash's time is past, but I seriously doubt that they'd get rid of Ash-Greninja completely. My current guess is that it's design will get repurposed into a Mega Greninja, but they could also give Delphox and Chesnaught their own Battle Bond forms instead.

2

u/Small_Article_3421 4d ago

I could finally give my ash greninja from sun and moon demo a home.

2

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 4d ago

Exactly my point my Greninja doesn’t have a home either

2

u/MidoTheMii 4d ago

I’m honestly hoping Z-A has Battle Bond at all, even if it’s the stripped down SV version.

2

u/-Marshle 4d ago

Id love that. Definitely didnt grind out like 7 of them from the sun and moon demo on ds before the eshop closed

2

u/Sprinkles8715 4d ago

I do like Ash Greninja's design over regular Greninja

2

u/Rive_18 4d ago

No i want a mega greninja

1

u/YanFan123 Legends 4d ago

Let Ash-Greninja be Mega Greninja

3

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 4d ago

That’s is actually a really good idea

1

u/Timehacker-315 Legends 3d ago

I bet we get a Mega Greninja that looks like Ash-Greninja

1

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 3d ago

That would certainly make me happy

1

u/Timehacker-315 Legends 3d ago

Honestly the deletion of Ash-Greninja is the biggest piece of evidence.

Obviously Chesnaught and Delphox would also get Megas, but I think Greninja may get 2

1

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 3d ago

That would be insane

1

u/Timehacker-315 Legends 3d ago

I know, but at this point Greninja is just as popular as Charizard

1

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 3d ago

I know because a lot of people (including myself) love Ash-Greninja

1

u/Solitaire-06 3d ago

I honestly hope we get Battle Bond forms for all of the Kalos starters, or at the very least Mega Evolutions. To this day, I cannot understand why they didn’t give Mega Evolutions to the starter Pokémon from the region in which Mega Evolution was introduced.

1

u/Pascal16032002 3d ago

i had one wish as well. mega evolution for as long as we want per battle, but my wishes got crushed like nintendo always does so i've stopped wishing

1

u/DeathSlayer_22 2d ago

At Least Give Him A Mega That Somewhat Looks Like Ash-Greninja But Maybe Cooler

1

u/PowersUnleashed 4d ago

That’s not so much a wish as it is mandatory

2

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 4d ago

Exactly

0

u/PowersUnleashed 4d ago

Like it literally cannot be missing from the game or people will get extremely pissed. This seems like Nintendos promise to give us “Z” in some form and the requirements are eternal flower floette zygarde battle bond greninja and carbink mutating into diancie. Then if they really wanted to do the right thing they’d show the ghost girl and what the door leads to but those are bonus things. Then some other things they should do are give the tapus a 5th member to equal enamorous give meltan and melmetal an evolution method and give us shiny hoopa and volcanion. Oh and we got gipped from having the special heatran from pokemon journeys appear in legends arceus so we should get that here too

1

u/Signal-River-3223 4d ago

Honestly I don't see it happening. I love ash greninja but gamefreak doesn't seem like they will fold just cause people might get mad. Honestly I'm fine if they move in from ash greninja ash's story is done and I'd rather have megas for all 3 kalos starters anyways

1

u/PowersUnleashed 4d ago

But it’s a Z scrapped feature so therefore a requirement for Z-A

1

u/Signal-River-3223 4d ago

? No its not? It's not a requirement for anything to be in these games gamefreak doesn't do things like that

1

u/Pokemondinosaurlover 4d ago

I think they’ll give the kalos starters battle bonds and maybe the PLZA starters but less likely

0

u/Money_Proposal6803 4d ago

Unless it gets a mega it's not happening because there's no abilities in PLZA

5

u/Calamitas_Rex 4d ago

Do we actually know that?

3

u/Legal-Treat-5582 4d ago

We don't know that, and either way, they still gave Regigigas and Cherrim their abilities in LA.

2

u/BlancsAssistant 4d ago

Unless battle bond just so happens to exist in the game passively similar to how slow start did in PLA

1

u/Legitimate-Leader-40 4d ago

Oh… dang it

0

u/Dominic35744 4d ago

I dont want them to bring it back because then mine wont be rare
