  I have one point about Leon&apos;s Cinderace. I think Leon was legitimately expecting the battle to end with Cinderace taking down Pikachu, and wanted to use the big flashy G-Max Fireball for all the fans, defeating Pikachu and keeping Charizard in the back to tease Ash. However, that didn&apos;t come to fruition, and when Cinderace went down, we cut to Leon sweating, showing genuine fear. He toyed around too much with Ash, and was now forced to bring out his Charizard in a final do-or-die battle.

  After seeing how much damage Pikachu could give and take in his battle against Cinderace and Charizard, Pikachu taking out both Cradily and Mega Metagross was like a preview of how strong Pikachu has become. It also showed how smart Cynthia was, because she was the only one who mange to take out Pikachu, and it was because of Spiritomb&apos;s Destiny Bond.

  Ash REALLY had the odds piled against him. He had to face the 3rd, 2nd and 1st strongest trainer. But that just made his win MUCH more better

  Pikachu vs charizard had it all<br>It is old school<br>It is their first partner<br>It accumulates the journey since the 90s<br><br>And the best part?<br>It perfectly portrays what a regional champion ace fight should be. Tierlist and all

  One thing I don&apos;t see many people talking about or at least not in the video, is the simbolic weight that Charizard as a pokemon has for Ash. He couldn&apos;t advance in his first tournament bc his Charizard wouldn&apos;t obey him, so having him overcoming one feels very much like the end of a gigantic journey. He is really going far beyond the trainer he one was. I really like the choice of a Charizard for a final foe for thar reason.

  There&apos;s only a few more cameos I&apos;d have liked to see:<br>1) Sabrina and Haunter watching Ash&apos;s Gengar<br>2) Casey and the Beedril Ash caught for her<br>3) The Frontier Brains, especially if it meant Lucy and Brock interacted again

  The Leon vs Ash fight is a visual masterpiece. You can see the animators went all in with that one

  This is easily Ash’s greatest victory and greatest achievement by a long shot

  Here’s how I would personally rank each battle:<br>1. Leon vs Alain: 5/10<br>2. Lance vs Diantha: 8/10<br>3. Iris vs Cynthia: 9/10<br>4. Ash vs Steven: 8/10<br>5. Leon vs Diantha: 2/10<br>6. Ash vs Cynthia: 9.5/10<br>7. Ash vs Leon 10/10<br><br>Overall I’d rank the Masters 8 Tournament a solid 8-8.5/10. Congrats Ash Ketchum, World Champion.

  I like how Ash vs Leon took vibes from the Ash vs Kukui and Ash vs Paul and wrapped it up with a role reversal of Ash vs Ritchie
