The fans watching the live stream are bashing the anime as well because of Ash's loss. This might go into Never Live it Down territory.

Amen to that. They've learned nothing from M16 about ignoring fans and treating them like preschoolers.

What rules are there that prevent Ash from winning? I've seen many franchises where the main character succeeds, yet their adventures are not over yet. It is inexcusable to keep a person ten years old and never letting him win leagues for decades, let alone give no appeal to older fans. Someone...

Predictably, Lysandre is spared by the adaptation and is arrested by Officer Jenny instead of being crushed to death by the Ultimate Weapon. But yes, the Team Flare Arc isn't done, and has a chance to either redeem this anime, or destroy it altogether.
