Go-ing for Gold
In that case, the whole tournament is meaningless since Ash is basically guaranteed to go to the finals. I feel like feeding characters to Leon will at least build him up as an even bigger threat for Ash, while fleshing out his team.Honestly, this entire setup could’ve been vastly improved by them doing what the games did with Leon where the point of the final tournament was for the ability to challenge him for his title rather than actually having him in the Masters 8 tournament. That way, half of the bracket wouldn’t be rendered completely meaningless by misfortune of existing on the same side as Leon especially since no matter who battles him, they’re nothing more than canon fodder.
