>>54896490>it was not needed anymore since they were allowed to give Ash a real mega.They made an entire episode on Lucario being dabbed by Greninja just to show Lucario to be inferior to Greninja. If they wanted to show that Ash does not need Greninja because he has actual Mega Pokemon than the first thing they would have done was making Alain & Mega Charizard X lose to Ash's Mega Lucario.
Now that Mega Lucario beaten Cynthia's Garchomp so if it ever fight Alain's Mega Charizard X than Lucario has to oneshot Mega Charizard X same way as Leon's Charizard to maintain Cynthia's dignity
>Cynthia did not Mega Garchomp Does not matter since Leon's Charizard oneshot Alain's Mega Charizard X without any gimmick so if Cynthia needs to use gimmick against Alain then it will make her look inferior to Leon.
>Mega Lucario jobbed to Leon's DragapultLucario was hanicapped because none of its Fighting type move can damage a Ghost type and some reason Leon got lucky when Lucario got paralyze by an indirect Thunderbolt.
I guess the main reason we did not got Ash's Lucario vs Leon's Cinderace because writers wanted his Lucario to lose a handicapped match to maintain Cynthia's dignity.
