15 years and the world has never been the same since.

Hands down the best Pokemon battles in the whole series imo

For sure. I don't think anything will ever top it in my eyes

Why did bro not bring him to the Dakrai fight man, Im so mad cuz I fuckin love this so much 💀💀💀

I have to imagine he was just too exhausted after pushing himself so far beyond his limit lol 😭 He would've whooped Darkrai if not for that tho

@TechnoNeo50 The funnier thing about the Sinnoh league is Ash doesn't bring back Charizard at all, and doesn't even think about him. It's so weird in retrospect for it to miss that series of all things. But Sceptile got to star in Tobias so I'm goodm

@Blast_Chance Or at the bare minimum, get that man a garchomp or smth lmao

@Precita85 @Blast_Chance That’s what I’ve been saying bruh.😭

@Precita85 @Blast_Chance Its so damn funny cuz like, Ash be having the full starter pack set but never evolve’em every time 😂

no megas, no z powers, no gigantamax, no terastal just a true battle.

once in a lifetime moment

Lives were changed

Shock the boundary of time and space

Reached Dialga and Palkia themselves

The full arc redemption that we deserved.

Greatest battle ever and it changed my life for the better ❤️‍🔥

Same, it'll always be so special to me 🥲

I just watched it clearly in the Japanese subbed. OMG! That was freakin intense! Especially the song Type: Wild playing makes this scene go hard. WOW! Cuz this episode was released 15 years ago, I decided to watch the whole thing especially this greatest scene. Truly awesome!

Absolute peak. Nothing can top this.

To this day, I strongly hate how there exists an English version of Type: Wild and the dub never used it. Instead, they gave us another take on that generic and forgettable ultimate rival battle song Dawn/Hikari and Zoey/Nozomi had in the Grand Festival finals. Unforgivable.

I can never truly hate the Sinnoh dub for nostalgia reasons but yeah, Type: Wild is just sooo much better

My goat infernape

INJECT IT INTO MY VEINS

Peak of the anime. It should have ended here like it was meant to.

the sinnoh championship should've ended with ash defeating paul

FIFTEEN YEARS SINCE PEAK

My favorite moment in The anime Internar you are fucking AWESOME

Nothing will ever top this. Not a single thing. This is where chimchar was fully solidified as my favorite Pokemon

I found my ppl

PURE!!! PEAK!!! MOMENT!!! The Build up! The battle! EVERYTHING WAS GREAT! Take me back to the days!

This scene still gets me to cry 15 years later 🥹

Ash saw this and was like: “You know what I’m just gonna throw him in the box for the rest of my career”

i think ash vs paul is my favorite pokémon battle the series has created

Before Ash vs Leon, this was the battle that defined Ash's character arc.

Facts absolute facts like that battle between Infernape and Electivire is Peak💯

HIMfernape! 🔥🫡

Electivire got robbed, man

Y el gilipollas de Ash decide no utilizar a Infernape en la final vs Tobias, se fuera bajado al Darkrai solo con Infernape

The world was at a crossroads, and we may or may not have gone the wrong way, but we found the way

Para los que vivimos ese momento en directo, no se puede explicar con palabras

only time in 15 years i think blaze has ever been actually clutch for a match that matters

Goku vs Jiren 😅

This shit was MY Naruto vs. Sasuke, man.
