The Lamest Battle EVER in the Animé

[WhyHelloThere]

Oshawott versus Darmanitan as well as what I said earlier.

He lost for.....no reason whatsoever? The battle itself wasn't very enjoyable either.

Barry vs Paulina. Was Barry really THAT weak? I mean didn't Barry know his opponent due to being in love with them? You would think he would of known the power he was up against

Brock VS May. It made me sad that May won. I think Brock deserved to win to be quite honest.

Replace brock with harley in the infamous ice beam DEM contest and you've got one of mine.

I kinda agree here ^^; Yeah, I was expecting him to win and in my opinion I think he should of won ^^
...Also, the World's strongest Magikarp. Need I say more? :P

Ya Brock should of pwned May lol, he was doing awesome.

Oh god this. Piplup should have beaten it with ease.

Brock vs. May is laughably bad in outcome and in voice acting. haha. Well, I'm thankful Bill Rogers and Michele Knotz were stronger in BF as Brock and May than in DP. Still just atrocious though, in all honesty.

Scraggy vs Throh was too painful to watch.

Pikachu vs Excadrill was one of the worst. Could they at least make Iris win with a strategy and a challenge? Paplitoad vs Excadrill would have been great to see and have Iris place some strategy into. They just gave it away to Iris without making her even earn it. Pairing a severe overused Pokemon with an average type advantage was a horrible way to end off the battle. Should have ended it off with "AIM FER DUH HOrn!" crap.

Brock vs May was pretty stupid. Another Give away win battle after some (Brock) places some much effort and strategy into the battle

I didn't notice it.

And what the hell did Ash do exactly?? He does the same **** all the time. And besides he was stupid for using the rat in the first place.

[dman_dustin]

And besides he was stupid for using the rat in the first place.

Even if Ash should've known better, and maybe played it smarter.

Ash still sent out Pikachu prior to Iris choosing Excadrill.

Kind of hard to call someone stupid, when they sent out their Pokémon first.

Ya but it was kind of obvious who Iris was gonna use lol. I would assume you have to use each of your three pokemon at least once. He should of known that she would save her best for last.

He should of used the rat in the semi's and Palpitoad in the finals.

[WhyHelloThere]

I would assume you have to use each of your three pokemon at least once.

By that logic Luke should have sent out something else against Iris.

[Groundedshock]

Nope. No Strategy at all. Grabbing Pikachu by the tail was cheap and she did not even command it. Ash used a bit of strategy himself but they the writers had to send out Pikachu knowing well they nerfed its power against Excadrill.

It could have been Paplitoad vs Excadrill to make it interesting. Heck it would have made it seem even on both sides but nope a typical Lame Battle and a predictable Give away win to Iris with an anti-climatic end to the Don Club Battle.

Hence why I said "Even if Ash should've known better, or played it smarter"

By that logic Luke should have sent out something else against Iris.

You do realize that it would only apply to the final rounds, as everyone who made in the finals is forced to use a Pokémon twice.

Odds are had Luke made it to the finals, he probably would've used Leavanny.

It was baffling why ash had to use pikachu when he had a powerful palpitoad on his team. All it was was the writers giving iris a free win.

All the girls have some sort of major victory or tie with Ash in the series.
