>>28368709Orange islands was actually sort of a pseudo-adaptation of the league of the original games. Ash had to beat 4 gym leaders in order to qualify to challenge the orange champion, and upon beating him he was inducted into the hall of fame. Really Ash has been a pokemon master since that day, him keeping losing leagues since then to avoid becoming a master and ending the series is bullshit.
>>28368685>>28368709I have to wonder why Ash would go to a region with no league. you could argue it's to become stronger, but if he'll release all his Alolan pokemon afterwards, there'll be not much of a point to it.
