>>58408187Dude , you have freaking Roy defeating Paldea's strongest champion Nemona with a Lucario he got and train offscreen. Three episode of mega evolution special on his flashback with Lucario is not enough to justify this.
Ash on the otherhand has 26 years of character development and he actually trained all of his JN pokemon ONSCREEN to be champion level. Why don't you actually analysis his battle with champion.--
> Vs Iris : Her pokemon were actually stronger but she lost because Ash was smarter and more skilled. > Vs Steven : Ash needed Pikachu , his most experienced pokemon to take out two of Steven's pokemon and still require his exclusive Z-move to stand a chance against his Mega Metagross. > Vs Cynthia : His Lucario fought a gimmickless Garchamp that already suffered a huge damage from Sirfetch'd. > Vs Leon : Ash still needed his most experienced pokemon to defeat two of Leon's pokemon . Remember that Leon's Galar pokemon could be new pokemon like Ash's since he take a galar starter to train in the game. Ash's JN team did not magically become champion tier pokemon, they has a trainer with champion tier skill that allowed them to win.
