Bws2-24 Unova League Conclusion! Lucario vs Pikachu! [FIRST POST]

[WingBlast]

I think that the mere fact that Lucario is mentioned before Pika in the title says a lot!

Lol, should we be rooting for Kotetsu then?

[ShinyCharyZard]

I hadn't actually paid attention to that.. Makes it seem like the battle revolves around Kotetsu and that Ash is just 'the opponent'..

Who knows, we might even get Kotetsu vs. Virgil after this.. and then Kotetsu can sweep the remaining CotD's for the title.. I mean Katherine is still in people.. :P

@ Locormus and ShinyChariZard:

I think that writers/ ppl in charge of the anime will stop at nothing when it comes to advertising merch! they probably got too excited and their hormones hit the ceilings due to sales that they forgot who is the main protagonist XD

I don't even get why Lucario is so promoted when its an old 4th gen Pokemon.

Have the writers ever heavily promoted an old pokemon from a previous gen before when no remakes were involved?

[Demon Kitsune Yoko Kurama]

Hmm, without any remakes, I don't know. I think Lucario is the only one. :/

Because ATLEAST they know what's the best Pokemon Generation.

I think,personally that Ash will loose in that match(otherwise i don't see why they named it unova conclusion),so i guess ash will come in top 8(correct me if i am wrong).I think after that they will include team plasma in the anime with N being evolved.Also team rocket will return to face team plasma...If all those are correct i don't see why they make those things in that way...

[Shraeder]

If Snivy doesn't get completely destroyed, this could be a good match up...If it does, then Pikachu's screwed. The only thing I would dislike if Ash loses is that he never got to have a battle with Virgil, which would make him the most pointless rival EVER behind Casey. A situation I could see happening if Ash wins is that they could fast forward to Ash's and Virgil's last Pokemon, where Ash gets defeated.

I still don't understand what's their problem in smply having six episodes for the league, they could have skipped one of the two Don Tournaments. How hard is it to give a detailled league with all possible rounds.

They didnt need to skip the Don Tournaments to make the league bigger, they didnt do it because they didnt want to, this time they weren't in a rush, they shouldn't rush the league in any arc anyway.

There's absolutely no relation between these two.

[Pokememes]

Holy eff, rushed league much? Honestly the axew episode was completely pointless, why have that in the middle of the league?
Oh and question, why is everyone so against Pikachu getting 3 wins? I understand you want more wins for the others, but remember Pikachu is/should be at legendary status! Pikachu should be taking out like 4-6 pokemon in the league.

[Crimson_Blazer]

sinnoh had one battle (ash vs paul) span THREE episodes, would we rather have like a 20 ep league lasting 2-3 months with every battle spanning an episode or two? Or have a fast paced league with only important battles being focused on lasting only 6 or so eps, I'd rather have the latter. I'm all for rushed leagues, especially since ash's team really isn't champion worthy this time around in my opinion, i say bring on N arc fast so we can get more evos or captures.

Because quite a few Unova Pokemon will have gained Torterra status because of him. Normally if this wasn't the last battle I wouldn't care, but since it is, why screw them over like that?

If by "Torterra status" you mean not having a win in the league then the same can be said in Sinnoh when the Oak'ed Pokemon took over the Sinnoh teams league. Every one of Ash's Pokemon is getting focus in a battle even if some may end up losing it :/ And since this could end up not being the last battle and the Pikachu vs Lucario could be just as long as Crustle vs Serperior and then they quickly announce Ash vs Virgil is next and they have a quickly rushed 6vs6 where Virgil's Espeon, Umbreon, and Eevee dominate Ash in less than 7 minuets! Does this sound worse than Ash losing to someone in the 4th round for the 3rd time? No. Because what everyone is complaining about is the rank he got not the actual length of the battle... Virgil could annihilate Ash but at least he would be in the top 4, now all we gotta do is hope that thats the pattern the writers are going with :/

At least most of the Sinnoh Pokemon won a match in their own league. Heck, even the Johto team won matches in their own league despite the Kanto bunch taking most of the slots. And I honestly don't care about the placement (I figured this team was only worth Top 8) but the fact that we had to skip two rounds of the league over some silly disappearing act that Axew had to make a 4th time. I don't get the point of screwing the Unova team like that and I really don't understand why Virgil is even in the league. Even if what you say might be true, with the Eeveelutions dominating, that still means that some of Unova group will still have no on screen League wins...

[Groundedshock]

Errrrr. Right now I am hoping that this is not the last battle and N introduces himself in the league so we can at least see Ash vs Virgil.

[JD]

So a weak 1-on-1 battle against Trip, a 3-on-3 against Stephan, and watching Ash lose his only full battle is all we're getting? I'm really looking forward to this!

Hey don't forget we got a stillscreen of Scraggy defeating a Darumaka! Best league ever!

[Joltik-Kid]

Nope, league is completed says the first episode of the N arc

He doesnt. N appears at the white ruins

For All the Ash-hater !!!!
This prove how lazy Writer's really are !!!!
So lazy that they couldn't afford to writer one more League episode.
They prefer Ash to be defected by someone like Kotetsu and demoted to Top 8 rather then work a little bit more one episode .
I know Ash can't win the League but atleast they could let Ash defect Kotetsu !!!!
Anyway , Does the translation of the Manga scan out yet !!!

[Sunglasses Krookodile]

Looking at what is happening with this saga, it looks like this league is a big let down, I guess I'm not surprised the way things have been going. I hoped Ash would get a little further in this league, hope things happen in this episode N Saga that is worthwhile.
