What do you think would be the decision about Journeys/Ash's future that would piss off the fans the most?

Diantha is so underrated. She needs to win this and prove her haters she is not weak.
And no matter what she isn't weak since she's ranked as the 5th strongest trainer in the WORLD so... love u

Diantha's problem is that she was super forgettable in the games. Lot of the recent champions have been easier for a variety of reasons but Diantha has the infamy of being super easy and easy to sweep along with basically being completely forgettable in the main XY story.

I loved her in the games too. But anime != game...
She wasnt shown to be weak in the anime.

I swear she's a misplaced Pokestar Studios character in another region.

The anime diantha is not the same as the diantha of the games lol

 

[Ragnarok4]

She must defeat Lance, hopefully Cynthia loses too, her simps are unbearable

 

[Blood Red]

Agreed. I would love if she somehow pulled an upset though.

lol you think people are mad now? Have Iris beat Cynthia, and even the people who haven't cared about this show in years will pop in to complain about it. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if the whole fandom had a short meltdown for a while.

That, or people could just shrug and call the anime 'garbage' like they always do.

Do it writers

Diantha was a joke of a champion in the games, and I don’t think her anime appearances were much better. She was getting cornered by an incomplete AG, was overshadowed by Steven in her own series and even if she wins, considering the match-up it would’ve been really pathetic if she lost against Lance. Her only saving grace would be a decent loss against Leon where she manages to knock out 2 of his Pokémon

Ash gets reset probably

More Amour needed.

Honestly Diantha could win this and it wouldn’t be a bad narrative choice. Lance already got beaten by Leon, Cynthia and Steven.

Yes. Choose violence. Do you know how many grown adults diapers who will be punching their laptops. Or have Lillie do it tbh. I just want the outrage. People tried convincing hope she wasn’t in the Master Class and had a mental breakdown when it was revealed

 

[janejane6178]

The Eevee girl will be here? She hasn’t appeared in a while

 

[MetaMantis]

I believe that the last time Chloe appeared was on episode 112. Maybe she's gonna be shown watching Ash's match.

 

[AuraChannelerChris]

Be specific. There's like 7 Eevee girls running around.

While Steven was closer related to Lysandre and therefore the evil plot brewing in the mega specials, Diantha was still actually doing her job and preparing for the oncoming crisis in the main series. Consulting Olympia, testing Greninja and Ash, rallying the gym leaders (E4 were on break I guess) teaming up with Steven and being the one taking command for the most part during the whole thing.

So yeah, don’t sell her short, let’s not forget Steven did nothing during AG and was upstaged by friggin Lance so his track record isn’t spotless either

We will need bigger pop corn bags

Steven wasn‘t the champion during AG though, Wallace was. The latter should’ve definitely helped out, but the Magma/Aqua arc in general was such a hot mess, that this is the least important of its problems

 

[UnovaMaster]

"A Hole Lotta Trouble" was not a filler, and AG is extremely underappreciated here because most of you missed the boat on growing up with it

I'd give anything for a Pokemon series with the vibe of AG again
