>>57967066 (OP) Ash was always a loser, and continued to be a loserr until Ash schizos like (You) bitched so much, they forced him to win the championship, because they were afraid that one of you actually burned down a GF office.
I always hated how little tiny shitmons could beat big fully evolved pokemon with ease in the show. I know this is Team Rocket, but it's still retarded as fuck.
Ash lost in Alola He lost to Hau Fuck Hau's grandpa

>>57967236 cool as fuck* The point was to show that evolving is not the only way to make Pokemon stronger and that there are outliers who can absolutely wreck your shit. It's kinda amusing to see people complaining about it when Ash himself is poster boy of it. His main Pokemon was, is and always will be Pikachu.
>>57967066 (OP) I think it would be better if Ash went with Chikorita instead of Bulbasaur, that way Ash’s overconfidence of winning the tournament only to end up losing would’ve hold more weight.

>>57967367 It's a one-off grass type tournament in the Johto series
>>57967066 (OP) Overconfident character learns a valuable lesson. It's good for kids to learn a lesson like that. Usually it's the villain who's overconfident but this way is fine too
>>57968724 Well, Ethan only won because because of a stroke of luck which is Skiploom all the sudden learning Solarbeam.

>>57968784 Well, Bulbasaur only lost because Skiploom got lucky by using Solarbeam. He was crushing it throughout most of the battle. It’s the same Skiploom that easily lost to Chikorita who’s less experienced than Bulbasaur.
>>57968877 Journeys in general was just a bad writing given manifest. It was written by the one garbage Digimon writer who doesn't know how to do anything besides shill the MC.

>>57967236 Blame the writer's obsession with the "bigger they are harder they fall" trope. The outcomes of anime battles are far too easy to predict because of this.
