The writers wanted to give Iris the win and did it in a way to make it clear that Pikachu had no chance with both the type disadvantage and that Excadrill was already known to be a powerhouse.

Yet people still complained when Iris won.

Oh, okay. I can forgive this sort of goof-up, then. Does the earthquake have anything to do with Team Rocket going back to how they used to be?

From what I heard they changed that scene, something happens to Giovanni or he goes into hiding so the secretary tells them to do whatever they want.

Yeah I don't think Ash has ever revealed his entire team without the three starters being there, though there is one scene that I remember that Ash had to go to the pokecenter to get Snivy so in theory they do get boxed.

There was a site that listed Pokemon episodes that removed filler episodes. So if a Pokemon was not caught, evolved, learned a new move or if Ash did not have a gym or an important battle or if no recurring trainer or Pokemon was seen or if it had nothing to do with a story/arc/background then the episode was removed.

Shame that there's only 53 opponents at the world tournament, would've liked 63 + the player. Someone would've written a great story.

Then I don't understand what you meant about your above comment.

I guess you could argue that in my hypothetical Snorlax could have taken out a third had he not been the last Pokemon standing, but we don't know because the opponent ran out of Pokemon, but at the same time you could argue that the next attack would knock it out.

Had you just flipped the scenes from that battle it was pretty clear that Charizard would've still won the MVP in that match.

But being the last Pokemon standing doesn't mean your defense was the best it just means you are the last Pokemon left. That would be like saying Pokemon B had the best defense because it was undefeated and knocked out 1 Pokemon while Pokemon A went through 5 Pokemon and lost to the 6th.

But had Charizard knocked out 3 and fainted and Snorlax knocked out 2 and won it would be foolish to say Snorlax was better.

Or when Ash has a 3 on 3 where his first two won 1 and lost 1 you can't say his last Pokemon was the most impressive without watching the performances within the episode.

I don't think getting KO'd should matter. With the exception of very few battles Ash only has 1 Pokemon left and that's the one that KOs the final opponent's Pokemon. As a writing tool Snorlax doesn't fit the criteria of a final Pokemon (not the underdog or Ash's current main guy). As a comparison Palpitoad will be the same where he'll be one of Ash's strongest (he's the strongest right now IMO) but he won't be the last Pokemon standing too often. Overall had Infernape taken out 3 of Paul's Pokemon and then lost because of a fourth I would still give Infernape the same credit.

What Snorlax is used for is that he either gives Ash a lead to where his other Pokemon blow it or he draws Ash level after his other Pokemon let him down.

Also not to take away Infernape's accomplishments, but many of its wins were on Pokemon where he's had the type advantage.

Never losing without taking out at least one or two of the opponents Pokemon.

You know every time Ash brought him out someone was about to get ripped. Honestly the only time he's ever looked bad was when he slept through the Orange League final and that was more done to get Tauros some screen time.

Top

Sceptile
Infernape

Good
Bulbasaur
Squirtle
Heracross
Swellow
Glalie
Buizel
Gliscor

Average
Kingler

Donphan
Corphish
Staraptor
Gible

Bad
Pidgeot
Primeape
Muk
Lapras
Totodile
Aipom
Torterra

Bottom
Butterfree
Torkoal

A lot harder than I thought. Some guys are strong, but only by story and not accomplishments (Primeape, possibly Gible in the future) while others you have to take into account their early accomplishments (though I take later accomplishments into account more)

Yeah when I think of Sinnoh I think of Turtwig at the beginning, Buizel at the middle and Chimchar at the end in terms of strength. The others got neglected, but at least Buizel had a few decent matches while as soon as Turtwig evolved he never really had a good match.

Another thing. Cynthia is still Champion. So it means that Tobias lost to either her or one of the Elite Four. If a guy with Ubers can't beat the Elite Four, how is a regular trainer supposed to? Unless you decide to believe Tobias said "**** this" to the Champion League and simply left.

Well given that Elite 4 members have never lost a Pokemon to Ash and Tobias lost two it would make sense that he would probably lost to them as well.

It lost horrifically to Kenny's Empoleon, did poorly against Paul at the lake and lost to Byron's Steelix as well, off the top of my head. It was in very poor form before the Paul battle

That's when he started losing his place as top guy and became a fall guy (Worf Effect even). Against during the time from getting him as a trade to defeating Maylene and Crasher Wake he was the best (outside of Pikachu of course)

The writers wrote themselves into a corner with Tobias. The guy defeated everyone with just Darkrai, the fact Ash defeated two of his Pokemon would be grounds for people to call BS on the battle. Anymore and suspension of disbelief would be gone. Now had Ash used a team of Heracross/Infernape/Snorlax/Sceptile/Charizard/Pikachu and could only defeat 2 of Tobias' Pokemon suspension of disbelief would also have been thrown out the window. The writers did their best to have Ash lose badly and still look respectable and have things believable. 4 of his Pokemon had experience with legendaries, Heracross is a perfect counter to Darkrai and Gible could be one of Ash's strongest Pokemon in the future now that it has Dracometer down and if it is ever used again.

I kind of wished Paul brought Ursaring into this battle, always been a big fan of him.

Torterra's fall from grace is pretty sad. In terms of his main Pokemon it is probably the worst besides Torkoal. Turtwig for a while was Ash's best pokemon (besides Pikachu) in Sinnoh.
