The conclusion to a two-episode battle comes tonight in about half an hour! Will it be Ash, who has trained for 20 years and is long overdue for a heroic victory, or the Mega Evolution champion Alain?
THIS IS POKÉMON HISTORY IN THE MAKING PEOPLE! As the image above suggest, we WILL be sharing who comes out victorious so you have been warned. Please use the comments below for your anime discussion. There are various ways to watch Japanese TV online, such as with programs like Keyhole TV, or other methods but we will not be sharing any links to questionable livestreams, sorry. Do at your own risk.
AND THE WINNER IS… Alain!
Let’s enjoy some anime! Is it a coincidence we also get to see new Pokémon Sun & Moon footage today? Hmm…

FEATURED DISCUSSION: Moves that should change in Sun and Moon?
Go Ash!

I actually don’t watch the anime anymore but I will watch this because I need to kill time until the gameplay.
Are 20 years of Pokémon, Satoshi wins Kalos League and Champion, fulfills his promises to Serena, Delia, friends, Pokémon, and everyone. I cry for these amazing moments of happiness and love.
He will never win,how would make milk the anime further if he did
He could just go and try to beat the next league anyway? I don’t know why him winning the league anywhere would stop him from doing so. This is the thing I’ve never understood about the anime.
It would make him achieve something,who wants that?
Plenty of people considering how many fans complain that he never wins.
Oh my god these Japanese commercials are plain terrible
Well that was a disappointing episode…
e-yep.
Seriously it was obvious he’d lose. They needed a reason to bring him back for the Alola series. Even though I had hope. Oh well.
I had hoped he would finally win and I thought it would make sense for it to be before Alola with Sun & Moon shaking everything up he could win his ‘final’ league match under the normal format and start a fresh with the new island format with whatever the league situation is with that game etc.
True, that would make sense actually but honestly I personally have wanted Ash to be replaced even since the diamond and pearl series. He may still be 10 but he’s still getting old.
He doesn’t have to lose in order to go to alola. Geez :/ Alola’s endgame in the games is to create a pokemon league, and the anime mirrors the game on major facts such as this. IF ash was champion, he would have to go to alola to help build the pokemon league. Durrr. And srsly the writers were lazy, atleast make charizard and greninja fall down, both struggling to get up and greninja doesn’t make it.
In an alternate universe Ash won, one without Mega Evolution…..like reverse Delta Episode
They should’ve let him win so he could be the one to go to Alola and create a league but noooo, he can’t win. Just kill him already along with pikachu and actually make a good anime.
I dont think the point in alola is to create a league anyway, alola has a league but it just has different rules, trial sites=gyms, trial captains=gym leaders, kahunas=elite 4 and so on
Then we should follow the adventures of a new character, who’s older and not retarded
Yes exactly what i want a new main character would be awesome
And no pikachus. If the anime was like that BW2 trailer we got I’d watch it every week
Oh yeah! That animated trailer was really good!
Hey, I want a Raichu, I’ve used a Raichu since the first Pokemon Blue Game came out and I want to see a main character use a Raichu as their main Pokemon.
Who cares man? Making the protagonist lose gives fans the incentive to keep following the series. After today I’m fairly certain they will never let Ash win a league, unless its the series’s finale.
Dude, it’s been 20 years. Ash’s still stupid, pikachu is not special anymore, team rocket is cool but doesn’t do anything major, and the whole story is always the same: getting badges, (re)discovering pokemon, making new friends, making bad decisions and defeating an evil team ( who could easily kill them but nooo that never happens). They need another story, something in the world of pokemon but more mature. If they made a series like pkm origins or that bw2 trailer I’m sure WAY more people would be watching it. Kids watch anything so it wouldn’t be a problem
That bw2 trailer was cringey at best
Then you have problems
Well that shit ideal flopped, because I’m never watching this shit ever again!
Watch, Ash will travel with some obnoxious bitch, Team Rocket will get smacked around like losers, and lose the conference once again, for the sake of drooling helmet children!
And since gym battles and conferences won’t exist anymore, Ash is a failure for life! He blew it! Thrice to the same guy on one region! Lost to the final boss once again! Ash-Greninja isn’t even worthy of being classified as a Mega Evolution! Everyone else gets the megas Ash should’ve had! No Mega Sceptile, no Mega Charizard X, no Mega Charizard Y, no Mega Heracross, NOTHING! He just loses like any other conference! FUCK!
This was all for nothing! It’s the same damn show! This region never happened! Nothing of value happened. EV Training > Ash’s retarded journey/fillers!
Just watch Baki the Grappler Maximum Tournament for a good tournament victory fix, because the writers have no interest of letting Ash win AND keep the journey going. Or create your own Pokemon anime headcanon completely distant from this series!
This was a waste.
You my friend WIN INTETERNET OF TODAY! Best rant/comment ever… This gave me life and hope ????
All this. I think I’m actually depressed because of this episode. The disappointment is too damn high.
Nope.
Goku wins, the digidestined win, wed all still watch if Ash won. I stopped watching ages ago because he was a terrible trainer. He wasnt bad this season, you really thought maybe he could win, but he loses again.
Lmao i freaking knew it ash always loses league battles smh it would had been cool if he won but maybe…that means he is not really a pokemon master *x-files music starts playing*
Okay, even though I’m upset that Ash lost, the episode was far from a disappointment. The battle between Charizard and Greninja was amazing, the music was jammin’, the animation was top notch, and the Team Flare attack looks to be epic. I’m really excited to see how all of this will play out!!!
Why the heck did Ash have to lose AGAIN? Ash-Greninja was so OP and everything and now he just loses. Didn’t watch the episode yet but seriously… There’s the description for the next episode and it says Ash is announced as the winner when Flare attacks but noooo… I’m so dissapointed. Not because of Ash losing but because of his most OP Pokémon achieving nothing in the end.
I’m literally done with the anime.
okay guys let’s focus on gamescom, so we’ll see what’s going to be in Pokemon Sun and Moon.
4 more hours to go 😀
Forever a loser
He’s like, almost 30, still continues to lose and no girlfriend
Even though it would’ve been cool to see Ash win, it’s still been an awesome show and I can’t wait to see what else happens. The gym battles have been amazing, the music top notch, the character development was good. I’m a bit disappointed but very satisfied.
okay guys we got four hours until gamescom will give us some more detail on Pokemon Sun and Moon,so I just like everyone to stay focused and keep you’re mind off of certain trainers League losing streak.
It’s official: Ash has worse track record than Leonardo Di Caprio.

I wish they would make an as anime like this…maybe one day.
I still cry when I remember this trailer exists. Pokemon, continue the current show for kids, but pls make one for the older audience.
Yes my thoughts exactly! A more mature pokemon!
Pokemon Origins doesn’t do a bad job of a slightly more mature anime. I feel bad for Ash- he will forever be stuck being the same generic character.
This trailer was epic. That Arcanine/Samurott combo murdering that Seviper was amazing to see.
Altough I’m still pissed about today’s episode, I must say: The animation of the XYZ series is on par with this trailer now.
The story and characters though 🙁
Real bummer…. It’s like if he wins, Arceus destroys the world… lol
They treat Ash like the Harbringer of the Apocalypse, if he wins the franchise is doomed…
Pokemon needs a new director who can actually shake things up a bit
Well, they actually did and… they shook things up a bit. a TINY. LITTLE. BIT.
But it ended the same way
Yea, they could have had Ash win AND continue with his journey. Ash doesn’t want to be Kalos Champion, he was to be the a Pokemon Master, laterally the strongest Trainer ever!
Dood that trailer was sick. Anyone think that Elesa in that trailer sounded kinda like ash?
Knew it.
I said Alain would win 😀
Called it,pokemon origins is the only pokemon anime where the protagonist is not a loser and that will never change
3 hours Left until Gamesom.XD
4h (for what matters)
it’s 4:02 where i am
it’s still 3h and 58 minutes away, which is closer to 4h than to 3h lol
Ok 🙂
I could be wrong but isnt this the first leage where he actually got to the champion round? If so then he has improved alot compaired to eariler ^-^ i started watching the anime but for some reason stopped :/ i will watch all of Alola region :3
