>>28570850Wrong. Clawitzer was fine, Aegislash and Sceptile were good. Salamence and Slurpuff were a fucking waste of time, basically filler to give Ash's other mons a purpose. Slaking was a huge mess that made no goddamn sense.
Alain continued a problem that Slaking started, which was forcing that "Hawlucha takes hits to get stronger" narrative that was never properly explored, wasn't even mentioned since its capture and has ZERO basis in the games. Aside from that, everything except Pikachu jobbed, and Greninja?
Greninja was beating the shit out of a worn down Charizard, then lost to an attack THAT HE COUNTERED EARLIER IN THE MATCH. And this is while pulling out the biggest asspull trump card attack the series has ever seen. WHICH DOES NOTHING. He loses the exact same way he lost before mastering the form, making the entire ordeal a complete waste of time.
This league was the biggest fucking mess I have ever seen in a series, and I've seen both GT and Super.
