short battles to start the tournament? It is not a good start but I hope that the next matches will be longer!

The Alola league started painfully small before working their way up, here's hoping for something similar

Just hope the battles aren't rushed like the Alola league, its interesting to see Alain with a Chesnaught knowing Mairin had a Chespin

For The Alola League I think it's possible although I'm ready for one problem or another.

with the battle of Leon vs Alain and Ash vs Hop in the same episode who knows, I also find it interesting to see Alain with a Chesnaught, it makes me wonder how it happened!

Alain was like:

Ouchh... i realize i have a lot of Ground weakness (Four out of six are weak to Ground when Zard X, three out of six when not).

But then, the funny thing is that it adds a third fire weakness to the team (Chesnaught, Metagross and Bisharp).

Edit: Fourth fire weakness, i forgot Weavile.

And that's not even getting into how Alain's original Kalos team was half weak to Fighting and the Fighting-weak Pokemon all even had a 4x weakness to it.
 
I'm glad to see Ash and Iris playing and goofing off together before the tournament like the old days
They just got back from an offscreen episode of Haxorus getting lost at the league; of course they're happy to be back from filler

As awesome as this is, does anyone else feel that Ash is pretty underdressed for the occasion? I was never a big fan of his Journeys design, as it feels uninspired, but they're really going to have the Alolan Champion stroll up to this event to decide the strongest Trainer in the world in a Wal-Mart clearance section's t-shirt and shorts :LOL: While this type of wear was practical in Alola, and general Journeys traversing, I'd much rather he be wearing something a bit more dynamic, but it is what it is.
 
That's good ideas, Alain doesn't win with Leon, nor is he the same as before. I am no longer satisfied.

You think his current outfit is underdressed? The alternative would be Ash fully embracing his role as Alola's representative by going into the tournament with his Masked Royale cosplay.

Pajamas. He's wearing pajamas with a vest slapped on.

I'd take the Masked Royale cosplay over this for the PWC finals any day. There's an intentional design and cultural significance to it; it would probably get fans in-universe more hyped too.
