Alain only joined the League so he could battle Ash. He didn't care about fame or the league itself. He just wanted to fight Ash.

No you faggot, Alain actually likes Ash and considers him a friend. And he isn't a cockhead like Paul, he actually cares about Pokémon and people.

That's probably the last time in the series that happens.

would paul be capable of mega evolution, or is his bond energy too grimy and disgusting for a partner to stomach

>I actually don't even watch the anime.

I think Alain deserves to win the league.

He is a good person who just wants to help others. He cares very deeply for people and Pokémon

But Alas, /vp/ hates him because they are contrarians about Charizard and the fact that he stands in Ash's way.

>Ash has never not beat a rival in a league

Remember Tyson for the Hoenn league?

>>27193420
Gyarados is Lysande's signature mon though

>>27193401
If the theory about him having one mon from each gen is correct, then he will have one from Unova and one from Kalos.

My guess? Druddigon and Trevenant.

The only league rivals who fit in this mold are Gary, Morrison, Paul, Trip, and now Alain. All of these are characters introduced before the League who go lose to Ash during the League. Ash also battles all of these characters before the League starts, and loses to them all.

Harrison, Jackson, Tobias, and Cameron never battled Ash before the League and that's what spelled his doom.

>>27193428
The thing some of you dont understand is that Alain only joined the League to battle Ash. He's said that twice already. Even though he knew the League existed he had zero interest in the League until Ash told him about the strong trainers and how he'd be competing. Literally the only reason why he is there is to battle Ash. He has no reason to win.

And Ash never beat Tyson

>>27193484
They literally called him a rival in narrations.

I just want to see someone Ash can't beat no matter what and see what it does to his psyche

It's too late for that kind of development, and even then, their rivalry doesn't have that dynamic.

The greatest red flag is that everything points that both of them will be down to their super-aces at the end of the battle, and as that golden shuriken is most probably happening there, then Alan is toast.

Would help if someone could post that pasta, but no there aren't too many lame episodes. Even the fillers are relatively enjoyable. Honestly, I'd recommend you just reading an episode guide and deciding which filler episodes you want to see (filler referring to any episode that doesn't feature a major event, i.e. Gym battle, Evolution, new move, new capture, rival battle, etc.).

Because like I said, it serves no purpose for him winning.

He. Does. Not. Care. About. The. Pokemon. League.

so they didn't have an ANA plane/short
they didn't have an OVA
they didn't have a short because long runtime
no live YUKI performance on Oha or Pokenchi

did they at least still have the drawing contest? I don't think I heard anything about it this year

the orange islands were great

salvaged charizard, caught snorlax, pikachu destroyed a dragonite, extreme sports gym battles, i think that shamouti shit happened at some point during all that, or at least shamouti was just as much of an anime-only invention so it may as well have been one of the orange islands

He's going to battle Ash in an intense fight but Ash is going to win because story and sense wise, Alain serves no purpose in winning the Kalos League while Ash does. Ash is the one who has been hyped to battle Diantha, not Alain. Alain is just here to battle Ash and only came to the League because he knew Ash would be at his absolute best.

Licensing the Japanese OST is costly, so TCPI saves money by employing the composers they already have for the theme songs and such to write new OSTs for the series. They suck. Voice actors are often low-budget and amateurish, and and often don't fit the characters they voice or don't emote properly.

Licensing the music is cheap. They replace it so they can get royalties whenever their music plays on TV, not because they couldn't afford the original.

>>27193865
At least the lack of 2017 movie scenes helps in the theory of this being Ash's last adventure before a reboot. There's zero chance that there won't be an anime at all, but there is a small possibility that Ash might be done after Kalos. It's still a long shot, but more and more people are at least entertaining the idea after finding that Ash wins the league.

>>27193710
Well, Alain does have one purpose

Winning the league means he gets to have his Mega Charizard go against Diantha's Mega Gardevoir

Plus story wise, Alain winning does allow Ash to beat him during the Flare attack, in a situation that lets them keep Ash from winning the league while putting him in a high stakes situation
Honestly though it would be better if Ash wins though because at this point if he loses or the fight is interrupted when he technically has even WON a league before AND been offered a job as a Frontier Brain but was able to do something called choose to continue traveling I think I'm just incoherently babbling at this point

>>27193943
We won't get any info of the SM anime until September the earliest.

>>27193977
>At least the lack of 2017 movie scenes helps in the theory of this being Ash's last adventure before a reboot.
Why? He wouldn't have been in it anyway. If it hints at ANYTHING, it's that there won't be a movie next year.

>>27193977
I'd like Ash to be the "Alan" of the Sun/Moon anime.

Ash would get a series of specials showing him battling Elite 4/Champions, and then occasionally appear in the Sun/Moon anime as a recurring character interaction with the new male/female leads.

>>27193988
For the 2017 movie we won't find out until like December or January anyway.

It's more grating than trying to watch Power Rangers

I mean, it was nice to watch when I was a kid, but so was Power Rangers

If Ash does win the league, makes you wonder how many kids who watched Kanto back in 1998 will actually come back and watch those specific episodes. All the original fans are now 25-30+ year old adults.

>>27194161
Each saga of the anime is mostly self-contained. Sometimes you'll see old characters or Pokemon return but its very rare and only for a few episodes. The writers do this so new kids can get into the anime and not have to worry that they missed 800+ episodes.

It's much more than in the Diancie movie at least. All she did back then was stare at him from her tent, now she's acting like a housewife.

Its weird how the XY movies have so little Amourshipping, when the AG movies had so much Advanceshipping.

>>27194262
is this that scene with the fucking luvdisc

>>27194262
It only had advance in the last movie.

>>27194217
That's about as much "amour" as the other two movies put together.

>>27194251
>inbefore stale claims the movie takes place before XY&Z27

>>27194262
>Ash and a Buizel

they knew

>>27194262
Probably due to the ambiguous canon of the movies. There're episodes that have no amour at all.

>>27194251
None of that shows she's in love with him. So we're still on the spaghetti and Amour drought.

Yes, comes after this scene.

>>27194217
What did those clothes she bought for him look like?

>manaphy is the prince of the sea
>considers may his mother
>ash obtains authority as king of the sea
and promptly loses it as another one-time powerup thing because having poseidon as the main character of this mon show would be weird as fuck, but still

>>27194150
Where is that originally from again?

They not only have Luvidsc surround them as they swim, they even have May look over to Ash as its happening.

The series at the time was making Contestshipping blatant yet the movies were doing the opposite and promoting Advanceshipping.

If the rumors are true that in S&M you help build a league there, maybe Ash wins the league and has the newest league champ and one that has traveled to countless regions, he gets sent there to help build a league.

that's the problem with having a bunch of writers and multiple projects i guess. i bet there were shippers among the writers who just wanted to strangle each other

>>27194371
It's a dubious leak, note that it didn't say a single word about the synchro.

>>27194388
Amour is being phased out now. None of the writers are doing spaghetti now.

You could tell the writers had a bit of a soft spot for Advanceshipping, there's a lot of Ash/May scenes if you know what episodes to find them in.

They even have Drew show jealousy of Ash in the early AG eps, which is why they battle together.

>>27194417
yeah but i bet other writers had a soft spot for contestshipping too

thus the strangling

movie IKUZE mp3 when?
