He'll get fugged whether he likes it or not.
Ash will fug him and he will take out his frustrations of not being able to fug Ash on Manon, who will find out about their forbidden love and they'll have a happy threesome where Ash fugs the shit out of them, leave them exhausted in a small puddle of sweat and shame and then Ash will say "C'mon you two, we're not done. ORETACHI WA MOTTO MOTTO TSUYOKU" and then he and Ash-Greninja go EVEN FURTHER BEYOND on their lewd holes.

Even if Serena falls in love with him (which would never happen), how would she even try justify to Clemont the past 130 episodes of treating him like a cunt that doesn't exist? And why would Clemont reciprocate?

You never know. Ash will not be around to protect Serena because he's captured. Clemont likely will be around to protect her. And given Serena only fell in love with Ash because be saved her when they were kids, Serena could fall for Clemont because he saves her from an attack of TF or Zygarde.

Cameron at least had an actual team, unlike Ass

>>27712286
I stating it as a possibility. Ash was dumb enough to get himself while everyone else didn't. There will be a huge crisis in Lumiose, likely causing Clemont to get to shine in front of Serena, and maybe even protecting her in Ash's place. Ash certainly won't be around and who knows how long he'll be inactive in this arc.

Video related, it's Pikachu right now

>>27711511
I want Ash to win it all dammit, but will the writers heed my prayer?

Everyone was super excited about the Master Class thinking Serena was gonna win it all after she got to the finals. That didn't come to pass though. Same thing happened when Dawn reached the finals and still lost to a rival she hadn't beaten.

I just can't bring myself to be optimistic about this as a result. I want him to win obviously, but I still don't think the writers will actually go that step

Wake up as Wulfric's boyfriend, what do?

>>27712425
Dawn and Serena were fresh novices. Ash is a battle-tested veteran and the imminent league victory is pretty much his long awaited due.

Satoshi beating Alain puts him ahead or on par with the Elite Four.

>>27712454
Only the Orange League which doesn't count cause he only had to get 4 badges (which he didn't even have to battle for!) and only had to fight one guy whose team was garbage except for a 10 move using Dragonite.

>>27712515
Would it be that surprising? Before he collapsed, Ash-Greninja was on par with Mega Gardevoir.

Man, meowths voice is almost as bad as Gokus in japanese

>>27712466
What if Clemont gets with Serena and not Ash? That would ruin the entirety of the XY series.

His dub voice is way better. Sounds like he's gurgling in jap dub

It's amazing how you all still insist that Ash will win. The show cannot allow Ash to win! It's the ultimate deviation from the formula of the show.

I'm... I'm sorry guys, there's just no way Ash can win anymore. There's just no chance after all his crushing defeats today. There is no way he can recover. It's time we all realize that our best option is to start cheering for Alan now like True Trainers.

if ash wins the league is he the champion or does he have to fight Diantha or are those two different things?

Will Pikachu's dominance in the league cause a sudden fad of trainers raising pikachus only to be disappointed that their electric rat doesn't anally devastate pseudos like Ash's does?

>>27712641
I mean, the show already deviated a fuckton as it is.

Anybody that has screenshotted all the denialfags so we can make a collage?

>>27712586
At least it was better than Suicide Squad

Will Serena get a cool battle against the Team Flare slutty admins?

>>27711511
I want Pikachu to steamroll Alain. I want Alain's super edgy tough mons to go toe-to-toe with Ash's Kalos mons and barely come out on top and then get utterly annihilated by Pikachu because they are so utterly outclassed. And I'm not even saying that because they'd go through the wringer with the Kalos mons, but because I want it to be apparent how utterly powerful Pikachu really is and how Ash turns it up to 20 during the League. I want there to be a cut-away to Paul and Tobias watching this on tv somewhere and nodding their heads and smirking because they know exactly how fucked Alain the Edgelord is for not just severely underestimating Pikachu, but for sheerly and utterly neglecting to account for it at all. I want Alain to shit his pants at how this fucking NFE electric rat with shitty type coverage is pantsing him on public television while he is forced, FORCED, to use his ace to KO this NFE rat and then, when Pikachu is finally done with its reign of terror towards Alain, I want Alain to breathe a sigh of relief.

And in that moment, I want Ash to turn his hat and send out Greninja and just anally devastate Alain.

I want this to be the Super Bowl 48 of the Pokemon Leagues where everyone expects a close match but Ash makes it not even close.

Entirely different thing. What the games call the Pokemon League is called the Champion League in the anime. You get to participate in it if you win the Pokemon League.

Be honest, have your thoughts on Ash winning actually wavered since today's episode? Like "i-it's no longer 100% guaranteed, 80% chance"

>>27712707
Stop!

>>27712715
Seeing him assrape Alan's team like that made them increase.

I agree. I was an Ash supporter, but it's time to grow up and realize that Alan is our best option and a True Trainer. Ash has no chance at winning against Diantha.

>>27712715
I've always been 50/50 like any reasonable person. If he wins, cool, if not, status quo.

>>27712735
But Alain has an excuse, he didn't put much training or care into those Pokemon because they were not Charizard. I thought it was reasonable that his supposed "powerhouse team" would fall pretty quickly.

>>27711511
I wonder if they'll have Lysandre using a mega evolution

>>27712693
Serena and Clemont will tag team together, and protect one another. Strengthening their bond in a crisis, while Ash is contributing nothing and is just sitting in captivity somewhere, while he potentially gets cucked.

>>27712715
Ash having Alan on the ropes this episode pretty much convinced me ash won't win. There's no way.

>>27712290
>Ash not losing when they showed up

>>27712769
We literally get to focus on his Key Stone during this episode, I say there's a high chance.

Right now the only possibilities are either Ash wins or Lysandre fucks up everything, but considering what Lysandre said I feel like he will interrupt the shit

>>27712795
>Greninja and Charizard vs mega Gyrados

>>27712803
Why the fuck would I commit when it's a coin toss? Hell, for all we know, Team Flare could interrupt the battle.

>>27712715
No? If anything, I was scared that Bisharp would fuck him in the ass at the end, but seeing at how Greninja and Charizard are the last Mons standing, I think it's pretty sure to say that Ash has this shit already in the bag.

Also, report noodlespam. They banned him early this morning, they can do it again.

Sure, but you will most likely have the chance to make something out of Alola. When Ash won the Orange League, that was cool and all, defeating a Dragonite with idk, 10 moves, was pretty great, but other than the joys of victory it nothing really came out of it.

Makes me wonder if people would believe him, too

>>27711930

>people complaining about Pikachu being hella strong this season
>forgetting that this little nigga turned a fucking dragonite into a lightning rod back in the orange islands

The only way Ash can lose with an taste is if Alan gets BTFO by Flare and Ash has to save everyone for the moral victory, prove me wrong.

>>27712736
The #TrueTrainer pasta is a meme from /pol/. It came to life during Trump vs Cruz.

>>27712760
Getting the mons on his team to evolve is a pain in the ass, so I bet they are reasonably well trained, though not to the extent of Charizard.

I really liked that James was cheering for Ash. I wonder what TR was talking about in their segments.

>>27712944
Lysandre is in his little glass suite in the stadium, and the summaries say that the Flare plan erupts at Lumiose Tower.

The only way Team Flare's plans can even initiate is with Alan losing and using his mega energy. So really, his defeat is needed.

>>27712960
Alan and Ash probably won't fight during the Kalos crisis anymore. Not without Ash being brainwashed or something.

>>27712010
See Pikachu vs. Serperior

>>27712707
That'd be great.

Stealing mons. I can only hope Jessie and Meowth gives in as well and start cheering the fuck out of Ash.

Alan is pretty clearly on the protagonist side in the magazine previews. Ash vs Alan is gonna end in the league.

14 is one of the most important episodes. 15 is filler but it's a Clemont-focused episode when he needed them.

If you like monologues, we still have yet to see Alan's vision of Ash and Grennja being confident while being surrounded in blue flames from the magazine scans. Probably where Alan starts monologuing of how much fun he is having, how Ash is the one that made him love battling Pokemon again, and how to thank him for all he has done for him he will give him the best battle Ash will ever face and try to win it.

PIKACHU JEW MAN BOLTO

This episode set up roughly half a million red flags that point to Ash winning.
- Alan's internal monologue being completely focused on him enjoying the battle = he's already changing and doesn't need a victory to come to a realization
>Manon noticing he's smiling = same, this will lead up to him not rejecting her anymore as a partner
-Sycamore recalling when he mentioned he still had to become much stronger and wondering what he's going through with a concerned expression = Alan will realize he doesn't need to win to become stronger, but to change his mindset
- Malva grinning when it looks like Metagross has Pikachu on lockdown = she told Alan before the finals that it'd be easy for him to win and her expectations being disappointed will make the conflict between the two more pronounced
- Ash's friends talking about how Ash hasn't won a single time against Alan not at the start of the battle, but more than halfway through during Pikachu vs Charizard = the constant mentions of this clearly imply it's not going to happen again
- Team Rocket wanting to steal the winner's Pokémon while they're tired, with Jessie and Meowth setting their eyes upon Alan's Metagross while James still believes in Pikachu more = we already saw how that one ended and TR wanting someone else's Pokémon over Ash's feels wrong

>>27713621
Pikachu is in the form of his life this season.

>>27713562
It's fine. It'd be all that much sweeter when they show up for the Hero of Kalos ceremony, or the hypothetical Diantha battle.

Besides, I'm sure they're pretty much all busy with their own lives to care about an annual event happening in some faraway foreign country.

The thing is, the anime itself is currently treating the League not as the ultimate goal and test of Ash's skill at the end of the region, but rather as just a fancy stage where he settles his scores before moving on to the real climax, the Team Flare arc.

>>27713103
iris and serena a cute!

You've got to be absolutely delusional to think Ash Ketchum, Mr. Beaten by a level 5 Snivy. Mr. Wrecked by a Darkrai and a Latios. Mr. Thunderarmor, would ever win the pokemon league. The writers don't want him to be a pokemon master and he wont be until the series is on life support

It would probably be TR that screws her over, which also probably frees Ash in the process.

I'm out of the loop with stuff but why is the direction of the X/Y saga heading to this? Kinda strange taking down the region's crime group is the final stretch.

Would you like her if it was revealed she's just Diantha's double agent?

>>27713851
I see TR really more like playing a part of rescuing Ash but who ultimately does is Serena.

Ash Ketchum becoming champion is believable in a world where digimon and pokemon swapped writers so this shitshow could have an actual plot.

>>27713852
Imagine Team Flare having taken the role Team Plasma had in the BW games.

H-HAYAI !

>>27713852
Because XY Ash is so strong, regular league trainers are nothing but pushovers. The only fitting ending for this region is apparently saving the world on national TV, with the whole of Kalos hailing him as a legendary hero.

>>27713798
Then they can pretend rigged

>>27713873
I really want TR to outright rescue Ash, James going dokidoki over him today would be nice foreshadowing for that. Fuck more Amour faggotry.

>>27713852
Because we really animu now, and in animu, tournament arcs come before crisis arcs.

>>27713873
Olympia did say they'd play an important role. I just thought it would be unleashing Ash upon the chaos brought on by Team Flare and Zygarde.

>>27713621
you're like that mom who goes like "my son just won a gold medal in the olympics, but remember when he used to shit all over his bed? that little fuckboy"

So this is what everyone's been hyping up, it looks like he might actually win, but I'm still doubting. Ash Ketchum losing just feels like a physical law.

Well, that's what you're getting. Serena rescuing Ash just like how she's the one that fixed him when he lost against Wulfric.

Not every animu has the crisis arc after the tournament. 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai in DB was BOTH the tournament and the crisis arc because of Majunia

Can you imagine what the in-universe competitive Pokemon community would be like after this match? I'm not talking something like competitive Pokemon in the games, I'm talking stuff like Sportscenter/ESPN commentary talk with fans in community forums discussing this like how we talk about Olympics, sport events, esports, etc. Think of /sp/ that discusses pokemon leagues across the world.

I can imagine the sperglords who have been analyzing this competition for years being flabbergasted at Pikachu's existence since what he just did crumbles YEARS and YEARS of Pokemon fight analysis.

and just think of the memes that spawned from Alain's BTFO

It's a fucking travesty that Zard Y has gotten so little screen time. Zard Edge gets Origins and XYZ, while Zard Y gets all of one battle where it's B L O W N T H E F U C K O U T by Zard X? That's bullshit.

oddly enough, far more like the video games than usual

>>27713960
So basically:
>they haven't done it before

Is your reason?

>>27713936
I'd say that role would be fucking up some shit while having a hand in the rescue. Them wrecking everything in a way is an important role.

>>27713813

Shut up Shudo.

>>27713918
After tournament arcs comes rescue arcs.

Steel moves are not very effective on electric types.

Alan would become the Pokemon League 18-1, or Golden State Warriors.

Yep Alain's an idiot.

And made Tyranitar weak to electric moves by drenching it. It would've been better for Tyranitar if he DIDN'T have Sandstream.

>>27714003
He got three Amie bonuses from Serena, Bonnie, and Ash.

Tell me about it. If Ash ever gets his hand on a Mega Stone for Charizard and it's not Y, I am calling bullshit. Seriously though, it's as if Game Freaks regretted making Zard Y despite being a competitive beast and having an appealing design.
