It's still possible that Iris will get dq'd and the 9th placed trainer (Paul, somehow), will replace her. All the writers have to do is create an illness for Drayden or a crisis for Unova that requires Iris to return home.
Lol thats never going to happen

This would lower tensions because Paul would get in on a technicality. While technicalities happen in the real world, it’s poison for storytelling moments like these.

This is reaching the level of another poster’s really bad fan fiction. Are you someone’s alt account?

What if Paul revealed that he beat her earlier in the ultra class and he also revealed that he didn't lose a single PWC match?

Now I'm upset that you think so poorly of me... :( I was just speculating.

Both the new visuals for this series and the updated opening theme all but confirms Iris' placement in the Masters 8. Unless the people in charge of making these visuals were trolling or made a rookie mistake and announces that oops, it's actually Paul who's in 7th place, come on man.

Plus, if Paul actually defeated Iris in the Ultra Class (while being on a supposed win streak), explain why she made it into the Masters 8 over him?

These "speculations" you make up sound like laughably bad fanfiction scenarios like this and you wonder why people on this forum think you're a troll...

The proper term is “overcompensation.” This sounds like a blunder of writing and ineptitude approaching Cameron.

If she has another Pokemon, I think it'll be the Goodra she was hinted to have met back in her first return appearance, showing the Pokemon she met on her journeys prior to becoming Champion.

The Gible is obviously her Gible that she caught in Johto in her special, so there's a strong possibility the Goodra is hers too.

I really don’t care for the idea of Goodra on Iris’ team over Hydreigon when Hydreigon hasn’t had a ton of major anime roles and Hydreigon is her lead in B2W2.
I also would prefer to see her with Hydreigon. Since she has an Angry Dragonite, why not give her a Happy-go-lucky/cute Hydreigon? :-D

We also just saw Raihan's Goodra recently. Now, I know this series doesn't seem to have a problem showing multiple pokemon of the same species (Ash's and Iris' Dragonite, Drasna's and that random Altaria back to back, Leon's, Alain's and briefly Ash's Charizard, etc).

But I think it'd be much better for Iris to have something more distinct to her and native to her region, like Hydreigon. Last time we saw one, wasn't it Cameron's?
