Ash actually did battle someone from Johto. A green haired trainer from Goldenrod city with a Meganium in episode 20. The lack of Alolan trainers competing was disappointing though.
They just wanted Ash to beat no 3, no 2 and no 1.I'm so confused why Ash fighting Steven was this hyped thing? Like I understand Cynthia was needed for BDSPLA promotion and Leon is the main goal but why Steven? They tried to hype up that battle and even imply he's always wanted to fight Ash despite the fact he's talked to Alain more than him.
Yeah this.They just wanted Ash to beat no 3, no 2 and no 1.
But they didn't have to make him that number and it felt pretty weird having him become number three in the PWC despite having the least amount of exposure out of all of them. Why was he the third best trainer in the world again? That's what I was trying to sayThey just wanted Ash to beat no 3, no 2 and no 1.
Because Steven's more popular than Lance, Diantha and Iris.

Yeah, the sure are wishy washy with how much they place importance on popularity considering Ash's has an entire Dracovish on his team, still think they should've kept Lance in that regard but I didn't know Steven had a (huge?) fanbase. Interesting to know.Because Steven's more popular than Lance, Diantha and Iris. Simple as.
He's easily among the most well regarded Champions in general. Not the most favorite of them all, but liked well enough among most people.
Yeah in offscreen land. But Ash should have battled Lance in the M8 if he wasn’t going to battle Alain with AGAsh battling Lance feels like its being saved for something in the future, like when Ash becomes the Kanto champion himself one day forcing Lance to retire.
And with Ash-Greninja (SCREW THE RETCON)Lance, Geeta, Diantha should be his next 3 opponents to take down.
If Alan returns again have Ash battle him early like he did with Iris.
If Ash stays I can see a Ash-Nemona and Pikachu-Pawmi student-mentor or rival-rival relationship.Lance, Geeta, Diantha should be his next 3 opponents to take down.

Yeah no, the dude is boring. He’s got as much personality as a bag of rocks. Immediately L making this a hyped match.
Because he's sexy as hell
Meh, the only champions with actual, distinct personalities are Iris and Leon. The rest are all some combination of nice, wise and powerful. Iris obviously wasn't gonna be #3 and Leon was already established with Cynthia for the later rounds. Might as well go with the champion from the universally liked games and most dripped out designYeah no, the dude is boring. He’s got as much personality as a bag of rocks.

Honestly then the best bet would be just go with Lance. At least he has that emotionless stoic thing that people find interesting. He has no personality either but at least that’s his thing which is showing no emotion and he’s been in the anime since OS and actually had a bunch of moments with Ash.Meh, the only champions with actual, distinct personalities are Iris and Leon.
