Lucario At Service
Calm Trainer
No argument can deny the fact that the whole Furfrou trainer bit was UNNECESSARY AND POINTLESS.
Why they didn't use the time to actually flesh out the actual League battles is beyond me. Such a ridiculous choice of writing.
From what i understood, it seems that the "Furfrou trainer after losing asked Ash to carry on the feeling, dreams and sorrow of those who couldn't get into the League, and asked him to not lose".
If its actually as i understood (since my Japanese is not that good), then that's actually quite typical of situation for many Shounen styled story.
Can a Japanese speaker tell me what was up with the random Furfrou guy??
That guy couldn't get the 8 Badge's and take part in the League.
So, he was bitter and wanted to prove (by defeating Ash) that collecting the Badge's doesn't have any relation with being a good trainer capable of taking part in the League.
The reason he most likely chose Ash as his target is because of that interview with Malva.
