>>50955922>She wasn't mentored until after she was revealed to be le prodigy.Being a prodigy =/= Mary Sue. Iris still had to grow as a trainer and clearly was shown to be flawed as a character. She even had moments when Ash and Cilan threw bants at her for laughs.
>Anime lore does not equal game lore. If anything the games are stupid for having end game level 4 year oldsIt's more stupid to consider 10 year olds eligible to travel across regions alone without any certification or supervison.
>It is but it mutating into a fucking super power is bad writing.Iris' Dragon empath shit is not a super power.Plus, it's something Iris always had in the anime and directly relates to dragons. It's how she calm down Dragonite and Hydreigon. It's not random.
>Not in universe. If Morrison came back and was stronger than every champion put together would that not be a little ridiculous?So BW Ash suddenly got good and became a Alola champion in the span of one year? Or how about how Lance looks older than he was in the original anime? Or how about the fact that Kukui's wife, Burnett, had birth a baby and that baby grew a bit? Plus, you're being hyberbolic. Iris only beat Alder and Alder was a hobo that didn't take battles seriously in the anime. He even fell asleep mid-battle.
