Why was Alder nor Wallace in the Masters Eight? The eight spot was still lacking a Champion and Alain just seems so out of place. You’d think them having TWO spare Champions, they’d join and get appearances but?

Because they're former champions, and Alain won the Kalos league tourney but hadn't fought Diantha yet, I guess.

Theoretically tough Wallace would’ve been strong enough to win a league as he was a Gym Leader and Alder was hand picked as Champion.

Couldn’t they have easily won a leauge?

As former champions I think it's safe to assume they could win a league, but I don't think they'd won a league tournament as recently as Alain or Ash had. I think if Alain had actually dethroned Diantha as I'm assuming Iris and Wallace did with their respective ex-champs, she might not have been there either. Though at that point I have no clue who would be the eighth... Maybe Geeta

Putting Alain in the tourney lets them clarify that yes, Ash has grown and IS better than him now.

This, it also lets them hype up Leon by having Alain job and establish that Leon isn’t “crutching on Dynamax” by having his Charizard beat a mega with no power up.
