What could beat this?

Realistically, what in the anime universe could defeat Alain's Charizard X at this point?

Siebold's M-Blastoise and Steven's M-Metagross both held their own, but its gotten massive power increases since then (ten mega trainers in a row, etc etc)

Could anything short of a legendary beat it? Even then it seems like some would fall short.

It was shitting all over it. Tanked all its shit without a scratch, including Blast Burn. Then it tangled with the primals while Zard got its ass kicked both times.

At least in the final match. It did work with Mega Secptile, but I doubt it would've worked with Zard X and what did you know. If it's moveset was something like Water Shuriken/Night Slash/Hydro Canon/Double Team for the final battle, then yeah it would've probably had slightly diffetent outcome.

Strong legendaries, champions, e4, Lysandre(?) that's about it.

Its already established in the specials and main series prior to the finals that Alain's Charizard is a monster and can tango with the best. The plot asspull should've came in for Ash but it didn't and the stronger pokemon won the finals fair and square.

Remember the first appearance of Gary's Eevee? Kicked Pikachu's ass without Pikachu being able to deal any damage to it.
Just to remind us all that the epic Orange Islands fight was a fluke and Pikachu had not actually gotten any stronger, nor had Ash actually gotten any better.

I still think he could probably take the E4 now. And if a leak is true then Lysandre is taken off that list.

It's pretty much only Strong Legendaries and champions that can stop him now.

Gary is my favorite meme. Haven't watched the anime since gen 2. Is he still around?
>>
>>27988800
Diantha was clearly not going all out either though, at least until it was too late.

Steven's Metagross would still destroy it. It tanked a Blast Burn to the face without a scratch and put heavy damage on Charizard with its own NVE Meteor Mash, and also held it's own against the Primals. Furthermore, Steven seems to be at least Cynthia's level if not stronger, and the latter beat Tobias who was even more overpowered than Alain.

Last time I saw Gary, he mentioned how he was going to stop focusing on training and become a researcher. Then he pulled an Ash, dumped all his Pokémon except his starter on Prof Oak, then went off to do stuff.

Pikachu seems to reset it's level everytime ash loses a league. it should be oneshotting everything by now but it still gets fucked by pokemon ash finds right outside every starter town.

I would argue that Alain isn't E4 level purely on the basis that, while his Charizard is certainly as strong as or a bit stronger than their aces, the E4 also have 5 other extremely strong Pokemon who are almost definitely above Alain's other 5, and who could certainly beat down an injured Charizard without plot armor.

Clearly taking a SE thunderbolt to the face and a quick attack to the chest did no damage to Charizard at all if Greninja wasn't able to even achieve a Double KO despite having the advantage of starting in rain and not having taken any damage previously. Pikachu effectively did nothing to it.

It wouldn't. Charizard didn't even faint the first time after being hit by a precipice blade, crashing through a bunch of ice and having more collapse on him.

Ash's Greninja, obviously. Alain's Mega Bracelet had illegal modifications done to it by Malva (without Alain's knowledge). After this is revealed in the Team Flare Arc, Alain will ask for a rematch without the modification, and Greninjash will win.

Zard has been consistently shown to be stronger than Greninja
>>
>>27994314
Greninja can take two Leaf Storms in one battle but can't take one Blast Burn.

I don't care if he was slightly stronger or not, he took hell of a beat up to both Pikachu and Greninja. It was all written for Ash to win until word came from above and they changed the ending, that's all there's to it.

The whole Charizard being stronger is irrelevant when rematching gym leaders because he lost the first time and winning the next time after training and developing a strategy has always been a thing.

It will never explain how he took like 10 solid clean hits including super effective hits. It's safer to say he lost because he's never gonna be allowed to win the league. If Greninja is that weaker then it doesn't explain how some of those hits did throw him off his feet. If he was that strong, he'd have shrugged them off like nothing.

You mean that super huge red aura giant shuriken, after he'd taken more damage from less dangerous moves. Yeah, no.

It doesn't help the first time they fought, the transformation into Ash Greninja was random and uncontrolled, the second time Ash passed out. This would be the first time they fought both in equal conditions.

Diantha wasn't even really trying though. Memefrog only got one or two hits on her, and it took Ash focusing to his limit to even get off an attack on the level of Gardevoir's.
>>
>>27994547
Charizard tanked hits because Alain's been training it almost exclusively, with his team already at a good enough (but significantly lower) level. Alain has held his own again Steven's Metagross and fucking Zygarde. His Charizard would probably need the full cooperation of Ash's entire team to take out.

It's like the kid who trained his starter exclusively, while you trained up a more balanced team at lower levels. Shota is even more "low-leveled" than that. He's a rookie, and the power gap between him and Ash is pretty big. Sceptile beat Greninja back then because Ash wasn't used to using his meme energy and got fucked because of the handicap.

Will we see the league winner fighting the elite 4 and possibly champion this time? It would make sense story-wise.

I'm assuming Hoopa just propped one from an alternate reality that can actually identify a threat.

I have to disagree with that. The fact that Pikachu handled Tyranirar ans Metagross so easily, including pretty bullshit iron tail ko on the latter, proves that at least some of his Pokemon were up to the task, and moreso, that those thunderbolt hits on Charizard should have pulled a number on it.

There's also the fact that the episode's name was released months ago and was described as his ultimate battle. Nothing ultimate if the result is the same old. At least not when you count the fact that he battled multiple legendaries, evil teams, and saved the world. Only way it could be ultimate would be if he did win. There's nothing to say the result couldn't have been altered half way looking at how things went.

Also wouldn't be surprised if the charizard being stronger theory got disproven ir they fight for team flare shit, or a final rematch at the end of the series. It's all up to waiting and seeing, assuming the writers don't get all hanged after the shitstorm in japan.

Just want to say that's not necessarily true. There was no necessity for him to win that particular match for it to be called ultimate. It just had to be the biggest fight Ash has had in the region to date. And it was. Having team flare arc after the tournament should have clued people in that they wouldn't make Alan lose just yet. He'll lose when it's revealed he's a bad guy and so the good guys win like in any kids' show.

By the way, their 2nd fight was inconclusive between Greninja and Charizard so this is technically only Alan's 2nd win with that match-up. Ash will win the 3rd when Alan is revealed to be evil. People just convinced themselves that since Ash "lost" the 2nd fight so they can say Ash will win the tourney.
