What if Ash partricipated in a contest?

What if Ash one day decided to participate in a contest. What pokemon would he use for the appeal and battle rounds? How do you think he will fare?

I think he will do fine in a contest, contests and battles might be very different, but a good battler CAN be a good coordinator. I think he will use Pikachu or Corphish in appeals and Swellow, Sceptile, Pikachu, or Donphan in battles.
 

.Bambi.

Uhhhh...what?

I can't see Ash participating in a Contest. He's expressed no interest in them what-so-ever, and is a Trainer at heart. Sure, he could enter one, but I really don't think he'd ever have the desire to do it.

I know Brock entered a Contest, but he's always been into the elegance of Pokemon, and not much of a battler. Besides, he had a girl 'cheering' for him, so he'd do pretty much anything.

If Ash entered a Contest though, he'd obviously use Pikachu. Electric attacks are pretty impressive, and Pikachu is a good battler. Ehn...

I would like to see him enter one and battle with Combusken vs. Sceptile in the finals and Pikachu in the appeals. As Combusken said, Ash has no interest in making his pokemon prance around.

And Ash's Pikachu is a talented Pokémon itself. With its dancing knowledge and pretty Electric attacks, I think Pikachu would be a terrific contest Pokémon. Now if Ash would just get into it...:p

it would be awsome him in contests xD I Would watch them all
 
Glalie can make great appeals using Ice Beam, Swellow can also make great appeals using its Aerial Ace attack in Target Practice.

Have to agree with .Combusken. i also cant see ash participating in contests. But if it does ever happen then pikachu will definetly be used. I would like to see pikachu for appeals and sceptile for battling.

I see a lot of potential for laughs here... but it's not something I want to see as I'm sure that May would spend the better half of the episode gloating and the like, which isn't really enjoyable viewing.

Well, Totodile could dance for appeals, Torkoal could cry I guess amusingly.

And Sceptile, Charizard, Bulbasaur, or like half of his Pokemon would own the battle round.

*Sceptile vs may's Squirtle fight I would wanna see, especially is Sceptile beats the crap out of Squirtle.

The only thing I want to see, if Ash decides to compete in a contest, is Pikachu appealing/in a contest battle.

Ash being in a contest is a matter of time imo. The concept is a great way for the writers to spice things up when things are slow (ala Brock entering a contest). Yes, Ash has no interest now but all it would take is for the writers to have Drew or even Harley make some rude comment and hotheaded Ash would sign up for a contest.

Ash would do fine in the appeals with having Pikachu do a light show or something. Keep in mind Brock used Bonsely which he's hadn't had for long and won the appeal round so no reason Ash couldn't. Heck I would like to see him win the whole thing and make the episode one of May's contest loss episode. I think it would make for a great laugh to see him beat May and Drew in a contest. Yea I know what would he do with the ribbon? He would just throw it in his backpack along with his Pokemon ringer trophy and it would be a memento of his journies. But I wouldn't expect to see an episode like this if we ever do until well into D/P saga.
 
Hmm...
If Ash entered a contest, he'd use Pikachu for appeals, and Sceptile to battle. But I don't think he ever would. It would be out of character for him. Plus, there's no reason he'd ever participate in a contest.

If Ash ever competed in a contest I would kill myself. Contests are for May, not Ash. That would be like May competeing in a Gym Battle. Awkward, no?

The same could've been said about Brock too... but that didn't stop him from having a crack at a contest.

I think Pikachu would be a good contest pokemon, but if it was against May i don't think Pikachu would go up against her, like when Ash went against Misty for the Cascade badge way back in the day ;)

I think Glalie would be cool for appeals and he'd most likely use Sceptile.
