kek Iris is gonna lose twice in a row and ever get a chance to redeem herself

Putting Cynthia in the OP is just asking for trouble.

>Ash isn't using reserves
This definitely doesn't feel like the 'ultimate tournament', and SV seems to be a school setting, so there likely won't be something similar during Gen 9.
Fucking waste of potential, innit?

This will never happen. Infernape is trapped at Oak’s lab

Poor Iris. Hasn’t won a single battle in 10 years.

Iris more like shitris

Poor Cynthia. Needing a gimmick against a new Champion who hasn’t won a battle in a decade. Embarrassing and Haxorus is already fighting.

Shitnova

Don’t think she needs it, just using it as a show of respect to Iris that she won’t pull her punches. Could even be a way of her entertaining the spectators like she did when she battled Caitlin.

Y’all gotta stop with this cope. Haxorus is taking on Garchomp in base and Mega form in these trailers. Leon and Diantha used their gimmick right away. Cynthia either got cocky and didn’t think she needed it mid battle or this is a last resort otherwise she’d just do it from the start

I can't wait for Shirona-san to job

It will happen and the simps are nervous

Fishious

Leon used Gmax to rile up the crowd though. That’s what he said. I don’t know how anyone could think Iris is capable enough of cornering Cynthia in the way you describe. Sounds like headcanon.

Cynthia’s battling style involves not putting unnecessary strain on her Pokemon. Why push for Mega from the get go if she might not need it. The writers mentioned they wanted to showcase everyone’s battling style. Just cause Diantha and Leon like to pull their gimmicks early doesn’t apply to the other participants

>Both dragon type specialists will lose back to back in the first round.
What did they mean by this.

We see Haxorus use Dragon Pulse against Garchomp’s Draco Meteor and it’s unable to stop the hail fire. Iris isn’t strong enough to win.

Outcome for those who haven't seen the leak yet

whoa

So is Diantha now the champion of Kanto and Johto too?

Ash x Goh for lucky thread

If we're lucky they sack the Ashime on the highnote of Ash winning the PWT and retire the fucker so we can have our proper serialized anthology series starting in gen 9 like we deserved to have from the start. Bonus points since he was just added to Master Sex so the crossmedia departments can finally use him without needing constant updates to coincide with anime progress.
