    That was a great conclusion to Ash & Hop's rivalry. Here I thought Hop's Cinderace would be the last of his team to be standing, but it makes sense his long-time friend and partner Dubwool would be the one he'd trust to get the win in case his second closest Pokemon Cinderace were to fall.

    Such a good battle, I loved all the symbolic matchups like:
    Pikachu vs Dubwool: first partner showdown
    urshifu vs blastoise: isle of armour bois
    Rillaboom vs Cinderace: not only a galar starter showdown, but also rillaboom avenging his loss to cinderace back in the Griflet (I think) tournament
    and last of all, Rillaboom vs Dubwool: a match of Hop’s first Pokémon vs ash’s first Galatian partner, but also a call back to ash and hop’s first 6v6, the Turning point for hop
    Bravos all around Zac, this battle was awesome!
    Also might I suggest a video where you come up with new moves for all of ash’s Pokémon? Ash’s battles with his old Pokemon in the league got me curious for what everyone’s new moves could be

    Something I did notice too is the underlining theme of living in other's shadow and it's not just with Hop.

    Charizard
    Haxorus
    Seismitoad
    Dragapult
    rillaboom: Hop already has cinderace and Gloria has inteleon
    Mr.Rime
    hop has rhyperior in the rewrite so I don't think he's going to be on Leon's team and while Aegislash is cool I just don't think he's going to be there.

    I absolutely love the original twist on Ash’s Urshifu which I feel like it should have a new ability that allows it to switch between Rapid Strike and Single Strike styles, though for now until GameFreak makes an official way for Urshifu to switch between it’s two styles I’ll keep it in my headcanon due to how awesome it is!
    Oh and I CANNOT forget Hop’s arc here as he is one of my favourite characters in SWSH which despite it’s mixed reputation I absolutely love it’s story and Hop’s arc. Out of all characters he’s one of the most developed and I’m so glad to see you use that part of him to create the greatest version of Hop possible.
    Now I can’t wait for the finale of this series! My boy Zamazenta is going to appear in this series and I wonder if Ash’ll use him or his “sister” Zacian?

  • @monabrady1004
    @monabrady1004 7 месяцев назад +3

    What a twist! I have an idea on what the Eternatus fight can go, with the Pokémon following Rose’s orders until it gets too much of the Dynamax energy to Eternamax and go beserk, holding all of Ash’s Pokémon apart from Pikachu hostage in an attempt to Dynamax them and have them rampage too. Then Ash and Hop go get the sword and shield to summon the legendaries to save their Pokémon and then defeat Eternatus
