Let’s say Ash caught these three Pokémon while he was in Alola. How do you imagine their arcs playing out?
Golisopod and Passimian are easy, since he already befriended a Wimpod and Passimian in the series, but I’m not so sure about Alolan Sandslash (which feels like the best Alolan form for him, not counting Alolan Muk since he already has a Kantoese Muk).
