>Ash vs CynthiaDP Kino set up this match up ages ago, and even if you ignore it, it remains that Cynthia is the most popular champion and people would be excited to see her and Ash face up. Before the finals even premiered, normies would be tuning in if they heard "Ash is going to be facing off Cynthia!"
>Iris vs LeonAdmittedly more of a filler match, but it'd be a cool match up for Iris I think. She could try reading Leon's Charizard's heart, realize there's still so much to Dragon pokemon she has yet to learn, and end on a good note fighting Leon
