I'd say the battle of Blaizekin vs. Charizard (Harrison vs. Ash) in the Silver Conference. That whole battle was great and the final battle of it was a good end for the Johto League.

i hope no one forgot about the metapod vs. metapod battle.. that was way back at the beginnings of the show when ash still had metapod
I really liked that battle mainly because it was funny... I mean think about it, the metapods could only use harden, so the battle went absolutely nowhere... very funny

I don't care...
Yeah Dragonmaster_Jonathan, that was pretty hilarious. I liked when Ash thought his Metapod was going to be cut in half by Pincer... great times with Metapod...
Shouldn't this be in polls? But on topic, the first battle that came to mind was Team Rocket vs. Rico. While it wasn't exactly a pokemon battle, though Wobbuffet did attempt to counter-attack, it was one of the most touching scenes ever IMO. Everyone mentions the Silver conference or Gym badge fights as the best indicators of strength or character or whatever, but I'd rather see intense emotion coming from people who aren't usually placed in that kind of situation. That was the only battle that brought to the brink of tears, and I think that's worth more than seeing to powerhouses pwn each other.
Though I like the MetapodxMetapod mention, that was a fun time

For me it would be a toss up between 4 episodes: Anyone of thes could be the best for me.
Ash vs. Blaine- Charizard vs. Magmar (charizard being my 2nd favorite pokemon)
Ash vs. Kaedae (katie)- the whole battle especially grovyle vs. Walrein
Ash vs. Noland- Charizard vs. Articuno
Ash vs. Roxeanne - Pikachu in his glory (My favorite pokemon, Pikachu)

The Best of the Best
Definetly Charizard vs. Magmar. I have always loved that battle. Do movies count? Ive seen some very good movie battles. Deoxys vs. Raquayza, Mew vs. Mewtwo, The battle of the legendary birds, Charizard vs. Entei. From the anime itself, I liked Charizard vs. Blakekin and Charizard vs. Blastoise. Pikachu vs. Dragon was good, really, everyone vs. Dragonite(from Orange League) Its really a touch call to make.

I liked the one between Ash and Gary at the Silver Conference, Cyndaquil vs Sandslash where Ash catches it and Ash v Jackson where his Shiny Magneton is used (against Pikachu, Cyndaquil and Bulbasaur) (because my first shiny was Magneton!)
y favourite is from the original series. It is the 4th round match between Ash and Jeanette Fisher, but only once she uses Bellsprout - i.e. Bellsprout vs Bulbasaur, Bellsprout vs Pikachu and Belsprout vs Muk, although Bulbasaur vs Beedrill was good as well.

Haruka's Beautifly vs. Grace's Medicham
This battle tends to be over-looked by many for some strange reason. It was a brilliant battle, which really showed us what Haruka was capable without having to rely on last minute cop-outs or awkward strategies.
Haruka's Combusken vs. Wild Breloom
Two pokémon beating the crap out of each other, with only their fists (?!) and feet doing the talking. Doesn't happen often enough in this humble condiment's opinion, and this certainly proved why it should be a scenario used more frequently.
Ash's Heracross vs. Shingo's Scizor
Running out of things to say at this point, but I'm sure everyone is aware of this battle and why it's one of the best.
Ash's team vs. Kaede's team
To be more specific, the second half of the match. It managed to not only give us a really nice lookin' fight, but hey! We also got ourselves a dose of comedy mixed in thanks to the resident crawdad.
Ash's team vs. Winona's Team
I like battles when they manage to weave both strategy and frantic action together, and this episode did it flawlessy. Pikachu vs. Pelipper wasn't particulary interesting, but Grovyle and Swellow managed to make up for that little bout of mediocrity tenfold.
[spoil]Haruka's Munchlax vs. Harley's Octillery
Munchlax got beaten six ways til' Sunday. Harley actually won. Need I go on? Oh ho ho, don't tempt me!
Haruka's Squirtle & Combusken vs. Shuu's Absol & Flygon
Best. Contest. Battle. EVER. Kickass animation, great pokémon combinations, edge-of-the-seat-tension so thick you could cut it with a knife...you name it, it had it. Makes pretty much all of Haruka's previous contests (both Kanto AND Houen) look like reeking cesspool garbage in comparrison.
Ash's Swellow & Corphish vs. Tucker's Arcanine & Swampert
This battle is shamefully underated, and for the life of me I can't figure out why. One of the most intense battles to ever grace the show, and despite the minor dent of Swellow and Corphish surviving a couple of powerful attacks, it was a brilliant match.[/spoil]
