[@kitsterling8665]

The thing I always hated about the 'win rate' lists is that you can't really say "X is best, it's undefeated", because yeah, that's true, but it only fought two or three times. It's not easy to extrapolate or anything really, either, because you never know what challenges are there to face in the future, so you can't really just scale them. It's still fun to see, though.

[@dracocrusher]

It is the most fair way to do it, though. We can all say, for example, taking out a Dragonite is more impressive than beating a Skitty or something, but you can't really quantify stuff like that nearly as easily. I feel like wins+win rates is a fair way to do it, but the one caveat I think I'd want is some measure of how many wins something gets in a row. Because if Snorlax takes out 3 Pokemon and then loses then that probably did wear him down, right?

[@MisterMokuroh]

Gliscor also tied against Barry's Roserade. I literally just remembered that, so there's no faulting Zac on that.

[@skeetermania3202]

That tie is also recorded on his spreadsheet. Granted, this wouldn’t change it’s dead last placing if the tie was included.

[@SanoopRangorth]

In Torterras defence.. Tertwig was the MVP and finisher of battles till chimchar entered the squad.. And as the MVP focus switch from him, Grottle was used to show how pokemon change with evolution and as a result it went head on with many ace trainers namely frontier brain and elite Four members. Yes it didn't win as a torterra but most of the battle torterra participated was to show how strong the opponent mons are so that ash can plan ahead while using the next mon.

[@heavydonkeykong5190]

This is definitely true.

[@nintendosega100]

Yeah it really sucked how it went from a team ace to a jobber, but I think even if it didn't perform fantastically near the end, it still put in lots of work as Turtwig to make up for it.

[@celestialudenburg3428]

Snivy had to fight a flying type, two fire types, and got wrecked after a Riolu evolved mid-battle. Snivy got put in a lot of unfortunate situations and was never given the chance to evolve. Maybe if Trip had a different starter Pokemon, Snivy would get that chance.

[@TimG57867]

I am surprised Snivy didn’t make the Overrated Pokemon video since she was notable for getting gassed up canonically by the show and failing to deliver. Though as the other guy states it didn’t help that often when Ash did bring her out, the opponents’ had a big advantage. Not that it stopped Trip’s Serperior from decimating Bug and Fire types.

The last time Ash saw Paul hinted he may go face Brandon again. Cynthia look from afar and thought to herself that those 2 will make it to the championship tournament one day. It may be the tournament Ash is in now in Pokemon Journey he will meet Paul again considering a flashback he had of facing Paul before. Paul was the best rival of Ash he ever had.
