>>37411764Executives. The faggot in charge of the anime is adamant that the series will end when Ash wins a League. Despite all the options to the contrary he is still insistent that Ash can never win a league until the series is ending. Because of this no matter what the writers want to do or how much they want to give him the victory, this executive motherfucker will always go over their head and say, "Satoshi mustu notu winu, pureasu understandu."
Throughout the DP series, lore was dropped regarding the champion league, Ash met all the Elite 4 etc. It was looking like this would be his year, but nope, new games coming, he must lose. The same thing happened with the Kalos League, it was all falling into place that he was finally going to defeat Alan with the Orange Shuriken, but 'lol, nope, new game, he must lose," happened yet again. Some of the staff even took to Twitter to complain that he should have won.
BW was the worst by far, not because he lost because BW Ash could never hope to become a champion, but the fact that he lost to a Goddamn moron when he had a 6-5 advantage. You literally can't make that shit up, there is no way that they weren't trying to piss viewers off by making him lose to fucking Kotetsu of all people. This loli sweeping him with her Blitzle would have been less embarrassing than losing to Goddamn Kotetsu.
