Yeah, money, not respect.Getting an endless legacy role like this is jackpot for a VA. You'll always have money for tomorrow's bread no matter what.

I love when you always make a montage collage of all the cameos!!! Just add Ash's Pokemon cameos as well and it's perfect!!!
The way this is always gonna be timeless
Yeah, but Flint was the most egregious example. Where Ash couldn't even touch him and got One shotted. While he was still inferior to E4 members before, none were as bad as Flint schooling him. Atleast in hindsight it makes sense since JN shows Flint is probably the strongest E4 member considering he made it to the Masters 8 at one pointIt's not just Flint. Ash was always shown to be outclassed by Elite four members and Regional Champions. He was never strong enough (Until Kalos, to hold his own against them in a serious battle).
Elite four members are strong enough to hold their own against the Regional Champion.
Yes, I know about Scott mentioning BF being on par with the Elite four. However, in the subs, I believe Scott mentions that some of the BF members are able to hold their own against Elite four members.
Maybe Brandon could be an example. Ash barely won against Brandon after what 3 tries? And even in that battle; he did not beat Brandon at his best.
EXACTLY!!tbh if not for that ep, while the jump is still a lot it wouldn't be that drastic. Ash was already faring well against Agatha back in AG, and while Drake did beat him pretty badly, it was like halfway through Hoenn, unlike Flint where Ash was almost at the league. Heck while Bertha was holding back, Torterra still did pretty well.
I think she has plenty of respect lmao even if people like you want to put her down for voicing Ash, a role she clearly loves doingYeah, money, not respect.
Yes because these Pokemon were sitting in Oaks ranch all the time with the most of them not being revelant for the upcoming series. And without any noticable progress shown for them why should I asume that they're suddenly champion tier level now?So I must ask If he was using his reserves would you still feel he didn't have the right to fight the caliber of people he did?
Maybe by having him progress over a long period of time? Of course it couldn't work in one full 130 episodes series with that pacing. Something like that could've needed two full series to properly work and for it to feel natural. So yes thats more or less the fault of the earlier series for not having them let Ash progress. Does that excuse JN for suddenly overpowering Ash out of the blue? Nope, it's still bad writing so the series trying to effectively make Ash the world champion was doomed from the start.Ultimately I guess my question is; how long was Ash realistically expected to continue to somehow never get closer to any of his goals?
I don't know why Ash having a new team matters in this case as a result; if Ash was allowed to be as effective of a trainer as his progression implies on a macro level he should have no trouble taking any Pokemon and making them good. That's what he generally does, and its cool to see.
I really wish we could have gotten an actual reaction from Gary over this.

That's because Flint is the first Full serious battle we see between Ash vs an Elite four member.I love when you always make a montage collage of all the cameos!!! Just add Ash's Pokemon cameos as well and it's perfect!!!

Drake and Agatha still didn't feel as much of a sweep as Flint was. They were clearly superior trainers who would absolutely win against Ash yes, but the not getting a single scratch with the strongest move and instant one hit KOing was too muchThat's because Flint is the first Full serious battle we see between Ash vs an Elite four member.
Even Drake absolutely destroys Ash in Sinnoh. The same goes for Agatha in Kanto and even Bertha in Sinnoh.
The Flint battle is often emphasized because of the former's greater relevance to the plot.
I completly approve Cynthia being promoted to companion.Cynthia and Diantha are official Ash companions now.
It's not that I disagree or anything - I think you have a point here - but Spider-man ain't a good example, SPECIALLY after One More Day, which makes Eternatus "gauge refresh" feels top tier writting"It's not bad writing to have Spider-man punch out Galactus, it was all those thousands of stories that showed him not being able to do that that were bad writing".
Come on, man. Ignoring a character's entire history and just having them do what you want them to do is not good writing.
Would it be bad writing if Masato shows up next episode and sweeps Satoshi's entire team with his starter, or would that also just be good writing that ignores all the bad writing from earlier series that failed to establish that he should be able to do this by now?
They went hard with that, felt like I was watching another anime!That ending was violent! I thought Charizard was dead for a second. Pikachu had some kind of secondary concussion after his headbutt, he lost his memory.
