It was pretty much an inevitability once they decided to skip all the way to the top 16 after the preliminaries.This means that Ash won't fight Kiawe though, basically making Kiawe the Barry/Tierno of Alola
Sounds about right in order of importance.Ilima- Top 16
Hau- Top 8
Gladion- Top 4
Guzma- Finals
This is how I think it’d go.
I really hoped that Gladion was the finalist, Gladion and Guzma’s is the only order I’m not 100% convinced about. I put Guzma higher because he’d probably be closer to battling Masked Royal/Kukui due to their long standing rivalry and up the stakes a bit for him.I could see Ash facing Gladion in the finals since he's met him more than once during the course of the series. There isn't a huge rivalry in SM regardless, but he has had two battles against Gladion, which is more than he's had with any of these other characters. Guzma being his final opponent wouldn't be a huge stretch though, especially if it does connect with whatever storyline they have planned for Team Skull.
As long as ash and gladion have a full 6 on 6 battle I am ok with itI really hoped that Gladion was the finalist, Gladion and Guzma’s is the only order I’m not 100% convinced about.

There are probably no 6 vs 6 battles for this league. Literally no one has 6 confirmed Pokémon, and Ash has no plans to use reserves.As long as ash and gladion have a full 6 on 6 battle I am ok with it
You're destroying my last hopes of having an acceptable-good league , only the drops of rivarly ,guzma and kukui's past, and the fact that almost all 16 competitors are known (I'm predicting a longer league) are leftThere are probably no 6 vs 6 battles for this league. Literally no one has 6 confirmed Pokémon, and Ash has no plans to use reserves.

I'd be kind of surprised if Ash doesn't battle the Masked Royal given the rivalry between his Torracat and Incineroar, but Guzma battling Professor Kukui would be pretty fitting too. I still wish that they introduced Guzma a lot sooner, but especially if the Alola League does come down to Guzma vs. Professor Kukui. There wouldn't be really enough time to buildup their rivalry when Guzma has only appeared once thus far.
He will end up as an alolan Tierno/Trevor and loses to alolan Alain(Gladion) or Alolan Sawyer(Hau)But where's Kiawe? I was told by his fans that he was Ash's equal and would be one of Ash's League opponents. What happened?
