>Cynthia is literally in the SM games, so she should have been in the SM anime as a commentator for Alola's first Pokemon League and hinted at this bigger tournament>Cynthia in JN will be used as a massive red herring to trick audiences into thinking that Ash will only go so far as beating her but lose to Leon. She's been the Champion who continually appeared, she has more of a prior history. Then it will be a bigger surprise when Ash actually manages to beat Leon. Cynthia can show up and use various unconventional team members to give the impression that Ash isn't the only guy in the fucking universe with more than six Pokemon>Iris gets more attention. Have HER get episodes to battle various Dragon type specialists and build up her desire to take on Lance. You had Drasna appear and you made her Ash's opponent? Wtf? >Ash uses the FUCKING RESERVES but sadly probably no Charizard for him because Leon and later Alain are using it already. However the way he uses reserves should be a little different. The JN team should still be the focus, so only one reserve should show up per fight. Until the Cynthia fight, which is now a 6v6 in which Ash uses three reserves. Again, it should feel like a fake finale. He then uses the full JN team for the Leon fight, obviously>Leon isn't a fag who just lets Ash use all three gimmicks. I know he doesn't have a Pokemon who can Mega evo in SwSh besides Charizard, but he should have a mega and a Z-move for the final fight. It makes him seem un-sportsmanlike to throw out that pity shit and makes Ash's win seem less valid. >Ash-Greninja is never used gomen>Notable reserves I would depict as highly based: Bulbasaur, Heracross, Snorlax, Krookadile, Infernape, Torterra (demands redemption), Tauros, Hawlucha, Quilava, and fucking KINGLER
