>>50737694>Mega Zard X vs Mega Lucario, and Ash finally wins.I mean, one would have to think there is SOME reason why Alain is coming back. "To train Ash after losing to Leon" is a good enough reason as any. But for Lucario to be the one to win and beat that Charizard kind of goes against the opening. If anyone is defeating Alain's Charizard, it's going to be Pikachu.
But Alain training Ash does make sense logically. If Alain just shows up to lose to Leon AND THAT'S IT, then they 100% brought back Alain for some weird revenge fetish.
