>>50683330Literally this. Ash losing in XY would be a drop in the pan. Cynthia is basically the second strongest trainer in the world, behind Leon who is default the strongest. Cynthia losing to IRIS? Absolutely unheard of.
Not only would that piss of Cynthia fans, that would piss off people who think DP > BW, AND it would piss off people who don't consider the B2W2 games canon. It would be a cascade of nonstop implodes everywhere all happening simultaneously.
