Then why did they make Chimchar the ace of Ash's team and his best Pokemon?
Ash always needs an Ace and all his aces match his preferred fighting style of fast, agile pokemon and Infernape was the best choice because if you ask me Ash's next bet for an ace would have been Garchomp but Gible only appeared really late in the series and giving Ash the same ace as the champion could have been a big no no.
Yes Ash has over the years developed into a more flexible trainer and can now use slower pokemon more efficiently but his preferred style remains speed orientated.
