He has returned.
the problem is, to the people who want this revenge it's not just about beating ash beating alain, but rather Greninja has to do it by beating his Mega Charizard X, otherwise it wouldn't count to them.

I really hope we get to see all the full teams for this tournament even though I know that makes me a nerd. A lot of these trainers only have 1/2 known Pokémon, so they’re clearly not very fleshed out yet. My absolute dream is to see Iris with a Hydreigon.

I'm not sure why quality or not (production schedules are a thing, after all) should be the only point to look forward to. Iwane has done more for Pokemon than any other person on this planet. I'm looking forward to seeing Iwane get to be involved with a huge, sprawling twenty-five year piece of his career and life now culminating.
Some say Alain only won cause he was accumulating the energy of all Mega Pokémon he defeated for Lysandre

Captain Pikachu is EPIC
So now we not only have an excuse of why we won, but also it can be used when he loses

Oh yeah, I just remembered I never responded to this. I took a look at your list and assuming by Shinjou you're referring to any Takuranke episode (since Shinjou only returned as AD in the last stretch of SM) and by the last few years you mean anything XY and newer, I only counted one rotation he missed from SM and I believe two from XY. I wouldn't say he's working on less Shinjou episodes when he's been on all but one or two. You aren't missing anything from SM or JN but you may have added few extra episodes like SM053 and SM091 unless he provided uncredited key animation.

He has returned.
While his bracelet taking in mega energy was a thing, there was no indication of it weakening his opponents in battle, or at the same time said energy increasing his Charizard's power, it all went back to Lysandre.
people really need to stop acting like alain cheated, only those who fell into the writers hype trap got cheated, because Ash lost fair and square.

Facts.
Actually it’s the other way around. Ash was accumulating Greninja’s jobber energy.

Excadrill is probably her strongest Pokémon. I could understand him at least putting up a fair fight. I can’t remember if Ground types resist Fire so maybe his Steel type leaves her a weakness but who knows. He could be completely destroyed depending on the writing

I kinda hope they don’t fight. I don’t know who I’d root for

I mean Ash would probably just win again if they had another fight since he's destined to battle Leon. Been thinking a lot about different match ups and I know they've had very little interaction but I'd like to see Ash take on Steven then Cynthia and then Leon. Would be cool to see Ash take down the top 3 trainers in the world. Might sound fanficy I dunno but an Ash-Greninja vs Mega Metagross would be a cool match up since it gives us something new. Bring Infernape back to take down Garchomp and Pikachu can be Gmax Zard.

O I was talking Iris vs Alain

Lol nevermind. I think Alain would probably end up winning that

I mean I could give discourse. Is Steven confirmed as the strongest trainer after Cynthia and Leon? That’s the confusing part about this. Are the numerical order they’re in determine their strength or is it who got there first? Not sure the anime clarified this but anyways…
I feel like Diantha is a better fit. She’s obviously the biggest jobber here and it would be a nice finish up to their match in XY. Tbh it feels like if she battles another person it might be skipped but with Ash it won’t. As of now she’s the person who we know the least about team wise as well.
That’s about it

Personally, I'm more than capable of realizing that the production schedule of the series has been f*cked and that animators are real people while also recognizing that Iwane hasn't really put out good quality work in a while. In the end, the end result is the end result and critique is critique, even with all of the context and the unfortunate circumstances. That's the modern anime industry for you.
Iwane's illustrious career on Pokemon is obviously a cause for celebration, though that isn't really the first thing on my mind when I'm watching a JN episode.
