Liko>>>>>Ash
This battle still gives me chills, probably the best battle of the entire anime imo. The best part was when Infernape's blaze was activated in the most epic way and battled it out with Electivire.

yep, easily my favourite ep in the series, my only issue is paul not really getting any retribution, but aside from that, just a glorious episodeAbsolutely amazing episode. The best part was actually after the battle, such a great send-off for Paul's character and their intense rivalry.
Paul also praised his Electivire, and even Infernape too!
This just further proves that Paul was the true winner,Infernape was down on the ground and the referee should have immediately declared it unable to battle.Frankly, I wish that we could've seen Satoshi's Goukazaru defeat Shinji's Elekible with his regular strength instead of him falling back on Blaze as a crutch. If he'd won on his own terms, it would've shown us how far he'd developed.
This was a nice end to Ash vs Paul. I wish Torterra got more battle time and a win. But aside from that the battle was awesome.
Agreed! Ten years since the most satisfying and hyped conclusion to a fierce rival battle. This episode solidified Infernape as my favourite Pokemon and set the standard for full battles and rival conclusions ever since. Ash-Greninja vs Mega Sceptile, Dusk vs Midnight Lycanroc and Torracat vs Incineroar have all come close to this standard but nothing will ever top this battle in my opinion. 10 years and this is still the best Pokemon battle I’ve ever seen.Let's celebrate this positive anniversary instead of the negative anniversary everyone was trying to celebrate yesterday in a different thread. What an anniversary! It's been 10 years! potentially the best battle in the history of the show!!! DP188!! What an episode!
