Oh wow, Jessie and James survived. Go figure. I think Jessie will win and lose in the top 8. I could see Sophocles beating Mina as well. Though that might depend on her second Pokemon

Well Sophocles vs Mina is also happening so I guess some air battle between Vikavolt and Ribombee may commence.

Hold on. A competition where in the end 16 people face off against each other out of a slew of a bunch of people? A person named Mina facing off against a yellowed haired guy? Mina confirmed to beat Sophocles like how the MHA Mina defeated Yuga!

Rocketshipping confirmed!!! Lol, just kidding.

Anyways, I'm actually excited to see this. I know the writers will probably have Jessie win, but I'd really like to see James pull through for this one. He deserves some spotlight since Jessie has competed in Pokemon Showcases and Contests and has managed to do okay for herself.

Oh boy, imagine if Kiawe is paired against Gladion instead of Lillie.
Click to expand...

That’d be a pretty cool matchup.

That just leaves Lillie’s opponent. Least if it’s the Mudbray guy then Snowy would have the advantage, but it’d be cool to see Acerola or Plumeria IMO

Can we just take a moment to realise that a member of Team Rocket is going make it to the Top 8 of a Pokemon league lmao

This could mean this round is 1vs1. I was expecting 2 vs 2 at least. Can James use stufful or bewear if it's 2vs2?

I called this ironically in another thread so this was a surprise. I swear if Bewear comes to get them before the match ends. Also curious on who’ll get the Z Ring. James would have a better use as Mareanie resists Let’s Snuggle Forever

Could you imagine if Jessie has the Z-Power Ring in this battle which puts James at a disadvantage, and at first Jessie seems to have the upper hand and is winning the battle however just when she thinks she's won and is about to finish James's Mareanie off to win the match, James's Mareanie sheer will power to not lose and to impress James winds up causing it to evolve into Toxapex which leads to the tide of the battle changing to James's favor and he and his newly evolved Toxapex win the match.
