Still a bad taste in my mouth from Ash losing the Kalos League finals, but when you see ALL of Charizard's battles in a video like this it shows that Greninja didn't really stand a chance against a beast that has gone up against dozens of Megas (let's be real we have no idea just how many Mega trainers Alain took down off screen with Charizard) and powerful legendaries.

@@ProfessorAlexSilver oh gosh I don't HATE the loss because I agree with what you said. We truly saw a solid story of Alain as opposed to a last minute league arrival rival like in past regions. I think for me the battle (while animated so freaking good) was lackluster; Greninja vs. Charizard I mean. The music for that final battle wasn't all that great like it was epic during Greninja vs. Sceptile (japanese version not English dub since that version's music always sucks...) and I don't know that final 'mega water shuriken' seemed like an "Ash pull" rather than something that made sense. There was 0 build up to an attack that powerful or even some B.S. explanation that the stronger the bond the limit would show in a different colored attack or something. True, Charizard had taken MORE hits, but its attacks were hitting harder like Tough Claw boosted Dragon Claws and Thunderpunch. Even though I thought Ash had a REAL chance when Greninja cancelled out that first Blast Burn...

I would also add on that Alains Charizard X got DUMPSTERED by the weather trio. It also did not defeat Z2 50%, It blocked Extremespeed, got one not very effective dragon claw in, and got hit with lands wrath before team flare lazered it and it split apart again. The Greninja fight was mostly ash's fault, being a brute forcer like Alain but with worse moveset. Since Charizard X takes neutral damage from all his moves and is a bit more naturally bulky than the glasscannon Ash-Greninja forme. The Houndoom match was actually pretty even. And a pretty good matchup for Charizard X. the 10 in a row mega thing, he used Super potions between matches. Not really an OP feat.

Alright alright, I know I might get hate for this but while I still do wish Ash won the Kalos league, this felt like his fairest lost. Alain's Charizard is an absolute powerhouse and unlike Tobias it doesn't feel forced. With Tobias he was just some dude created solely for the reason of "beat Ash". We don't know anything about him or his connections to Darkrai and Latios. With Alain however, we see his accomplishments and his care for Charizard. He was an actual character with a story and not Joe Smoe of the street. We knew Alain, we know what he did and that's why I think while Ash loosing was and is disappointing to the max, I don't feel too bad about it at all.

Leon's Charizard seems to always be on the backfoot before Gigantimaxing to win the battle. So, I would say in 'normal' form; Alain's may have the advantage. *Yes, Gigantamax on Leon's side is an advantage. However, Alain with a Mega (Y or X) could make things a bit more interesting...

Alain is a Monster.. I think people is underestimating Alain. Some said that he lost against Siebold. But that was episode 1 of his Mega Evolution series, there's a big difference of power and experience between episode 1-4. In episode 4 Alain is already a powerhouse he proved it by mopping the floor with literally everyone I watched all the Mega Evolution Series of Alain. If he battled Siebold again I have no doubt Alain would mop the floor with him, so Alain being in the Master 8 is no surprise for me, I also believe that Alain's Charizard is the strongest pokemon between all the Champs Pokemon.. To prove it even more, remember in episode 1 when Alain Charizard battled against Mega Garchomp? Charizard barely came out with the victory but in the Kalos League they battled again and this time Charizard had no trouble defeating Mega Garchomp in less than a minute even though Garchomp had trained a lot with his master so this is an example of how powerful Alain was at that point compared to Alain From Episode 1. Greninja almost beat the crap out of Champ Diantha's Gardevior so Greninja was broken but Alain's Charizard is a Monster that took Electric ⚡ 🌩 attacks from Pikachu and also from Greninja but he still came out with the victory so this is why Alain is in the Master 8 he's a monster.

Alains charizard is so amazing especially when it mega evolves into mega charizard! Also I like Alain as a rival for ash the only think I didn’t like was when Alain worked for team flare and they captured ash and it sounds so hard for forgive someone who would do something like that but really it became a big mistake that Alain made and perhaps Lysandre wasn’t fully specific to what meant what he was going to change to work for to also, I’m glad it worked out I the end and I just finish watching the 19th season Of the Pokémon anime that I just started watching this past weekend and it was an incredible experience and somewhat emotional at the end when ash released greninja and when he and his friends that he traveled with all went their separate ways at the end. But also good video professor and it was a good ride for Alain too on the show for how much screen time he gained over time. Also one more think about Alain, if he were to return then I would love to see him battle with ash and have a one on one charizard battle since they both have charizards as their Pokémon!.

Thank you, I've made this point before but people screeched about Ash losing the Kalos League even though it was pretty obvious from all the build-up over the course of the Mega Evolution series that Ash stood absolutely no chance against Alain's Charizard. "Oh but Ash's Greninja has a special form!" Yes, but its battle experience is still pretty standard, while Alain's Charizard has endured gruelling training and has battled and held its own against multiple legendaries. The power imbalance there is simply too great for a cheap form change to overcome. Had Ash won that battle, I'd have rolled my eyes from just how unearned that victory would have been. What makes Infernape's victory over Electivire satisfying isn't the victory itself, but the fact that it was earned across all of the Diamond and Pearl series. If I was writing it and wanted Greninja to win, I'd have had an arc where Greninja undergoes similar or equivalent experiences to Alain's Charizard so that it would be more of a match of equals.

@@ProfessorAlexSilver I think the problem with Alain and his Charizard and why people were upset with Ash's loss was because Alain's storyline was covered in the Mega Evolution specials, which presumably they didn't watch. As much as I could blame them for not watching them, I can also see the argument that them being specials might make people think that they weren't relevant to the X and Y anime's story when they were. I do tend to get annoyed when series tend to spread storylines over different parallel series (Star Wars has been guilty of this recently) making them hard to follow. However the Mega Evolution specials were pretty accessible even with that taken into consideration.

Alain was 1 of the best Rivals and Secondary Characters in the Anime! Along with their upset Victory over Ash, he was the first Rival of Ash's, that Ash couldn't beat in a League Match Situation. With how he wants to be the strongest, after winning the Kalos League, and rediscovering himself after the Team Flare Incident, taking on the World Coronation Series makes alot of sense. I can see Ash vs Alain sometime within the Top 50 section of the Ultra Rank! A 3 on 3 match with Ash as the Victor, would be a great way to bring closure for those 2 as Rivals! Especially seeing their battle history outside of their battles together. Alain: Kalos League Champion, Defeated Elite 4 Malva. Ash: Became the Alola Regional Champion, Defeated Unova Champion. As for the teams, I still predict, with Ash's Old Pokemon starting to return and being used too, we will get a 2 Part Find Greninja Arc, for it to rejoin Ash's team in the World Coronation Series. Afterwards, we will get the Ash vs Alain WCS Battle. The teams- Alain: Metagross, Tyranitar, and Mega Charizard X. VS. Ash: Melmetal, Ash-Greninja, and Pikachu. Like I said, Ash will win, probably Rank around 30, and next will be Paul! Great video Prof. Silver, and this just made me more excited for what's to come in Journeys!!

I think people is underestimating Alain. Some said that he lost against Siebold. But that was episode 1 of his Mega Evolution series, there's a big difference of power and experience between episode 1-4. In episode 4 Alain is already a powerhouse he proved it by mopping the floor with literally everyone I watched all the Mega Evolution Series of Alain. If he battled Siebold again I have no doubt Alain would mop the floor with him, so Alain being in the Master 8 is no surprise for me, I also believe that Alain's Charizard is the strongest pokemon between all the Champs Pokemon..

@@ProfessorAlexSilver To prove it even more, in episode 1 Alain's Charizard Battled Remo's Mega Garchomp and Charizard barely came out with the Victory.. In episode 4 they battled again and this time Remo and Garchomp were supposed to be even stronger than before because they trained non stop since the day they lost against Alain but this time it was even easier for Alain's Charizard to defeat Mega Garchomp without hesitation. So you can tell the difference of episode 1 from 4 Alain at that point is above any Four Elite Member.
