But the writers have already established that Trip is a main rival thanks to Godperior and Ash's losing streak against him. Truth be told, the opponent most likely to lose in the first round is Burgandy. There's also quite a few other loose ends that need to be tied up.
I just hope they could start making Burgundy look more than just a pushover, really. She feels bratty and maybe bit bland character to me... (-l´l-)
Burgundy bland? Even though she may lose all her battles on screen, she's the opposite of bland. But, this is probably because I like her so much. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, so it's okay.

Well I tend to find her tad bland compared to Stephan... she seems more of the usual "competitive rival type" made to Cilan who constantly is after him and loses to people (heck, she was blasted off once) but doesn't really go much further than that. It's like the writers want to make her feel like a joke.
Yes, now I do find Stephan bland. And I do think the writers just made her to lose. (-_-) It's a shame, she know how to battle good too. Not, better than Ash and Cilan, but good, heck she almost even beat Iris, but type disadvantage was working there, so I wouldn't be surprised. So, I'm guessing when she battled Iris, Dewott was near or was on the same level as Excadrill, because they battled quite evenly. We'll just have to wait until new episodes air until we see how she's improved. That is if she doesn't lose again.

Her battle against Trip was only a plot battle to show Godperior's power, she's a force to be reckoned with when Dewott faced Excadrill it held it's own pretty well, considering the fact that she's a connesiuer and doesn't focus on battling and Gym badges she did pretty well. I really believe she could have beaten Iris if it wasn't for Excadrill being with Iris for long and being powerful and Dewott only being Burgundy's starter. So Burgundy did well while at a disadvantage, now imagine her serious...
I'm not a Burgundy fanboy i just belive that characters like Morrision, Nando and Burgundy should be foucused on just as much as the others

I honestly can't believe there are people who wish for Burgundy to enter the league when she's clearly Cilan's rival.
Also, she wasn't featured in the OP so she won't be at the league (nor will Georgia).
