To be completely honest Ash has been jobbed out to people like Tobias in the Sinnoh league when he had a ton of momentum. In fact Ash's Sinnoh team was looking pretty beast as well at the time and his Infernape seemed pretty unstoppable after that epic match with Paul. You really have to question the writing for including someone like Tobias with all uber-tier pokemon and squashing the protagonist along with everyone else at the league in the season's finale. It's just horribly anti-climactic knowing Ash had absolutely no chance against the guy, getting 6-2ed. Unfortunately to some people Alan is giving somewhat of a Tobias kind of vibe this season although imo nowhere near as bad. I think Ash legitimately has a shot at winning the whole thing this time. |
It's not just your opinion, it's a fact! Tobias came out of literally nowhere using the noobiest of all legendarys, whereas Alain is a long established character that Ash has already fought in close battles (lost first but was winning second time until he lost control) who doesn't use cheap legendarys and has been shown to be defeatable.
