With the Don Battle, Donamite, and the Junior Cup...each of these were four episodes long a piece and seemed significant enough a give rewards to their victors and be televised with a large audience present.
Yet with the Marine Cup tournament, the one in which the writers have Ash win, it's...

GASP IRIS BEAT DAWN?!? NO WAI! NEVER SAW THAT COMING.
Amazing how predictable this tournament has been.
In this series we have two baby Pokemon growing alongside each other, there's been various talk about how each has been developed? Do you think they are doing a good job? What are the positives, and negative of both their progress.
There's been two tournaments so far, and soon to be three. In both he was put in a situation where it would be a foregone conclusion. It's safe to assume Ash will lose the third one given who is participating, and that would make three tournament losses. In comparison to D/P, Ash won three...
Given that BW2 seems to be bringing back old Pokemon, it's not hard to imagine some of Ash's old fellas making appearances. Do you think they'll play any roles other than battling? What circumstances could you see them being used?
Throughout the series, most notably recent in Best Wishes, we've seen alot of mid-battle evolutions. It's happened several times in the series overall as well. Do you find these events cheap, or perfectly acceptable from a story-line standpoint?
In both of the Don Battle tournaments that have occurred/occuring so far a non-gym badge collector has(will) win. The badge collectors that have entered the tournament (as far as we know) are Ash, Trip, and Bianca. In the first Don Battle both Trip and Bianca lost in the first round, while Ash...
Given the recent events, usually in tournaments for main characters they tend to battle their respective rivals, or have some sort of significant interaction with them (i.e Paul/Ash tag battle). Many people assumed, that give it's tournament like structure Ash was going to battle Trip. However...
In the beginning of the series, Iris was protrayed as a wishy-washy trainer who didn't get alot of focus. However, quite quickly her past was revealed and then we had her win an entire small tournament. Do you feel that the writers are trying to portray her as such simply because of her game...
As we know, in the games gym leaders can switch whenever they want. However, in the anime it seems that the writers limit their ability to extent. They don't seem to like to lose in most cases in the anime, so why prevent them from switching?
Figured I'd get a shippers POV on this.
Throughout the series we've seen a number of episodes based around shippings including the main characters. There were a few in OS, some in Hoenn, and one in Sinnoh near the end.
Do you think that the writers actually have plans to make these...
When you look at alot of rivalries in this show it seems to be fairly popular to make them one-sided. Ash/Paul, Ash/Shooti Dawn/Ursula, Dawn/Zoey, and May/Drew. I don't see any harm in changing it up.
Do you think evening the losses, and victories out would be a good move? Going back, and...
Compared to the other rivals in this series his presence seemed kinda out of place. He didn't really appear that much, and never had a intimidating feel for lack of a better term.
Zoey: Was a mentor, who helped Dawn get better.
Paul: Rival, that Ash had to prove wrong in his methods...
Sometimes I wonder if the anime team considers winning Pokemon league = Pokemon Master. That's obviously not the case, since afterwards he has to challenge the Champion, and the Elite 4. Of course he has to beat them before he even considers himself a master.
So assuming he gets Top 2 next...
I've seen some people say that Dawn was better than Ash preformance wise throughout Sinnoh ( due to Ash still making "newbie mistakes"), and looking back it seemed the writers were trying to show Dawn being better at her goal than Ash is his ( being alot closer within reach). After all she made...

DP185 - Trick Room of Terror!
There apparenlty is a break after this episode, don't know why. I guess Conway is being carried over. This title is tenative, and not final.
Serving as the "black-sheep" to the thread Gible made, how do you feel about the writers randomly throwing Ash a Legendary to beat in the league. Do you find it cheap, and sorry excuse to get Ash to lose. Do you think it serves to show Ash's development as a trainer effectively? Feel free to...
