They didn't, though. Alan's reason for wanting to win was built up from the moment he met Manon, an otherwise pointless character.

I was talking more about Ash-Greninja though.
I'm fine with giving Ash a super special snowflake ability (asspull or not), but not letting him win with that makes the whole thing pointless.

>>31049205
No. In fact, I'm ecstatic about him winning simply because I hate Ash-Greninja that much. I will never hate a pokemon as much as I do Ash-Greninja. Regular Greninja is ok in my book, if a bit pushed too much by Game Freak, but giving it a super special snowflake form with a huge power boost that makes it stronger than a fucking MEGA EVOLUTION without even needing to hold a stone was crossing the line.

It brought me so, so much joy seeing Ash-Greninja eat it so hard at the Kalos league to a true mega evolution. I loathe Ash-Greninja that fucking much.

To be fair, Ash's tendency to blatantly ignore type advantage and somehow still compete was going to come back to bite him sooner or later.

There are much worse tournament outcomes I could mention.

The amount of edgy contraritarian faggots in this thread is insane.

19 fucking years of Ash getting his ass handed at every league fucking sucks. Even if its for kids, I don't want my children thinking its a-ok to be a loser, and that hard work yields no results. Fuck that.

I know Anon, but there's no sense trying to make that point here.

A lot of the people who watched all of XY/Z called it quits after that. There aren't many people left, aside from /padt/ exclusive posters, who know all the barrier-breaking buildup and basic storytelling elements that demanded that Ash win. It's just memeposters who think that people being mad is more important than what they're mad about.

>Kalos: Alain
Ok prepare for a wall of text
I really don't mind if Ash Greninja is an asspull because they had no other way to put him on the level of mega users. Honestly it would have been more stupid if a regular Greninja was that powerful. And I know that people started rooting for Alain because Ash is a "Mary Sue" when Alain has lost 1 battle, beat an elite 4 member and Zygarde with his super powerful Charizard and nothing but Charizard, is a part of the evil team but isn't evil because he fights for his cute little girl. Which ticks off most of the "edgy" character checklist.
Now keep in mind Ash had lost against Alains Charizard twice before using nothing but Greninja. Thinking about the match a few weeks before I thought that Ash was going to win because Alain focused only on training Charizard.
Fast forward to the match and he has 4 new Pokemon we have NEVER seen before on par with Ash's fully trained team.
So battle stuff happens and we're left with a damaged Charizard, a half dead Bisharp vs a fully healed Goodra and Greninja
BAM
Bishard OHKO's Ash's pseudo legend

Part 2
So Greninja after hitting 100% synchro wails on Charizard for a solid minute then launches the most powerful Water Shuriken.
Charizard survives and fires a NFE Blast Burn that Greninja should have been able to dodge easily
Then he's standing looking perfectly fine unlike the other losses
And then he just falls
If people don't like Ash Greninja
Ok
It's very pandering I know
But why would they hype up this battle by having Ash lose twice, almost beat the fucking champion, have that whole arc after Wulfric and give him this super special awesome transformation...just to make him lose?

They literal hinted that Ash would be at his strongest in Kalos, and that he'd win the league in BW142. If Ash had never met Alain, Ash would've won, beating Shota (Sawyer) in the league.

Im over it though, once Pokémon sales decrease and nobody watches the anime anymore or TPCi loses money for some god unknown reason since they're billionaires, then maybe, MAYBE, Ash will win the league.

Because the guy who wrote the battle is a hero that saw Ash-Greninja as the disgusting special snowflake pandering bullshit it is and stopped it before it was too late.

Ash has like 5 different pokémon able to Mega-Evolve. MCY vs MCX would've been a super hype season ending but noo, they had to make a stupid Narutoad OC

>>31057687
You know what also litterally happened? One of th main writers saying that Ash would only win a league when the episode ends. Everyone could see a mile away the final result
