This is, IMO, the worst thing about the Pokemon anime - lack of Pokemon battles. We get tons of filler episodes where characters meet a new Pokemon, play with it / save it from danger or evil guys, but we don't get episodes where Ash would battle other trainers. And yes, I know that there were battles, but they were either with Ash's rivals or a 1 vs. 1 near the end of an episode. What I would like to see (and will never happen) is full episodes with nothing but battles. These episodes are the most interesting anyway. And if Ash battled more, there'd be a much higher chance of his Pokemon actually evolving. I'm glad that BW included this Battle Club thing, at least we got to see more battles than in the previous series.
