How do you fuck it up so badly?

First battle, the first impression of the tournament.

>leon is an entertainer who likes to show such spectacles
How does it go? A giant fucking gorilla beating drums instead, and the Charizard X that fought Groudon and beat Ash Greninja lost in ONE HIT from a normal Charizard. Nips were all universally extremely disappointed in everything this fight had to offer, some going as far as to say this delegitimizes the finale of this tournament, because even if Ash wins, it'll just be terrible writing. Everything that could be disappointing, is disappointing.

>Lance vs Dykatha
The worst possible matchup you can have with these characters. These are the two characters people care least about. Eliminate both of them. Have someone like Steven or Cynthia go against these fucktards and let those win, so you can get an actually exciting battle between champions. To make it worse, Dyketha won. Literally no one in the entire world likes her. Fuck this.

>waste Steven on Ash battle
Jesus Christ it gets worse. One of the most underutilized and beloved champions and he's getting Alain'd in first round.
We have a fucking tournament of champions, and it has only three actual champion fights. Iris vs Cynthia, Lance vs Diantha and Leon vs Diantha. These are the three fights literally no one cares about, of the three literally who gives a shit champions. No Cynthia vs Steven, no Cynthia vs Leon or Steven vs Leon. Nope, can't have actual champion fights. Waste all of those characters on OCs instead. Why even have the champions appear if they're going to be wasted like this?
