This is why I feel Journeys is better than most other generations. Doing every region through Kanto, and no elemental starters hogging ash's rosters. There are 18 types and Ash has mostly ignored the premium types like steel, ghost, dragon, psychic, fairy, dark. Elementals, Flying and Fighting have become too repetitive. This time there are two fighters but overall there is good variety. I just think if Ash defeat Leon this generation it would be anticlimactic as this is the first time his roster isn't noobish and won't set him back.

Ash’s Gengar is definitely a glass cannon, but it has a lot of power. It’s no different from other gengar that appeared when you think about it. Drakes and even Morty‘s powerhouse Gengar, both got knocked out after only two blows. I have faith in Ash’s gengar, and believe it’ll start racking up some wins soon. The fact it rendered a hyper class battlers Pokémon into KO range for lucario speaks of itself

@@jaredlanglitz5651 it was pretty frail also but lately it seems my faith in ash’s Gengar has been spot on with the wind it’s been scoring lately. So I think ash’s would win. But then again, Fatima is more seasoned with ghost types

man, i would love for ash to take that gengar to meet haunter, ghastly, and the other gengar from when he was still worrying about beating sabrina. considering his pranking style, gengar and haunter would get along so well together.

It wouldn’t be out of character for it to pretend to faint, and when the trainer’s Pokemon began to show pride it would ambush with a crit + KO. Honestly, Gengar’s set is pretty decent competitively but I would swap Sludge Bomb for Brick Break and possibly fit Ice Punch in there for ground coverage against pokemon like Landorus, who has 4x weakness to it and has powerful Earthquake.

My lesson takeaway is: when Ghost types hate you, they haunt and curse you. When they like you they prank and tease you

I would’ve liked that Sabrina traded haunter to him and he evolved to Gengar. But all the kids watching would’ve questioned who Sabrina was. Would’ve been a trip down memory lane.

I like Gengar had a similar past to Charmander and many of Ash’s past Pokemon that was abandoned by older trainers but it was executed a lot differently
