I hope Iris uses her Excadrill this time, since that was one of the Pokemon that we didn't get to see in the previous episode she appeared in (aside from a Flashback).
I can see that as a reason for not wanting to bring Greninia back. There is 2 ways they can possibly go around that issue.
1. Lucario can temporarily take over protecting Kalos during Ash's match vs Alain. Since we saw that it was capable of fighting those roots with it's Aura Sphere at the end...
If Ash ends up battling Alain, I can see him temporarily bringing Greninja back on to his team. Similarly to when he brought Charizard back from Charicific Valley during some of his battles during OS/AG.
Seeing Ash battle (and defeating) Alain without his Greninja just doesn't feel right to me...
