Pancham (poster)

Next to the Squirtle poster is also a missing Pancham poster.

Bulbasaur

When the shot cuts to the stream, there's eight Bulbasaur trotting through the water. A herd of Bulbasaur, perhaps?

Morelull

Floating around the Bulbsaur is a bunch of Morelull too, like sentient mushrooms.

Jigglypuff

Jigglypuff is seen stood on a table in a bar, trying to wake a man it's sent to sleep by singing.

Machamp & Primeape (poster)

On the wall by Jigglypuff is another poster advertising a fight between Machamp and Primeape.

Squirtle

When it cuts back to the arena, there's a Squirtle watching from behind the barrier.

Pancham

You get to see a "real" Pancham for a split second when the scene initially cuts to the arena, below Squirtle.

Mr. Mime

Mr. Mime is in the next scene... just look at that face.

Greninja

We next see two Greninja running down a corridor firing some attacks.

Psyduck

Psyduck is shown a few times but this shot absolutely had to be included.

Ford James

Give me a game and I will write every "how to" I possibly can or die trying. When I'm not knee-deep in a game to write guides on, you'll find me hurtling round the track in F1, flinging balls on my phone in Pokemon Go, pretending to know what I'm doing in Football Manager, or clicking on heads in Valorant.
