Ash deserved to lose this battle. This nigga solo'd everyone he was up against with a Darkrai, and who does Ash put in the 5th and 6th slots of his team?
Charizard, his most experienced and arguably best Pokemon? Nope.
Snorlax, arguably his biggest powerhouse and easily most durable Pokemon? Nope.
El Tauros Fuerte, the bull that's proven itse;f with little screen time? Nope.
Bulbasaur, one of his most clutch Pokemon? Nope.
Squirtle, the best in the west? Nope.
Muk, the original gangster? Nope.
Infernape, the goddamned living inferno? Nope.
He choose Torkoal and Gibble. I can understand Ash holding back his Charizard and Snorlax back for the Final round, but goddamn nigger, do you not understand that Darkrai was undefeated? Torkoal has a horrible record with one impressive performance on his resume, Gible was a goddamned child who almost lost to a Shuckle two rounds earlier. You could have been the very best Ash, you could have won it all. Instead you fagged hard.
