I’m so happy torterra was finally able to get at least one win to his win rate! Thank you zac for doing what the writters couldn’t if I was to rewrite the DP series I would have done the same. 😊
This was such a great episode. I love how you're giving redemption to Ash's bad reputation mons like Torkoal, Noivern and Torterra and giving them the wins to bounce back. Also I love how you trolled us twice by making us think Incineroar would be his last pokemon against Grimmsnarl but it ended up being his form changing Urshifu! And of course the second where Urshifu almost fainted. This series is legendary man, you really know your stories and battles.
I don’t get why and how hop is stronger than ash. Look at hop’s pokemon and ash’s pokemon. Ash is the Alola champion and he barely wins the semi final while hop demolishes raihan.
So now Ash has Ultra instinct Infernape, Ash Greninja, and Cobra Kai and Miyagi-do Master Urshingfu, and I think we all know this guy is setting up Super saiyon Pikachu we saw in te real thing
Yeah it's plot armor but it's temporary thing unlike ash-greninja so I can wrap my head around that. Personally, I'd like to think it works like Melotta's Relic Song where it changes form depending on which move is used. But in the Gmax form it stays as Single Strike form so Surging Strike becomes Max Geyser that's cool.
Plot armour? Realistically ash should be able to beat all of these trainers without any problems, but Zac made ash look like a beginner. Hop somehow demolishes raihan while ash barely beats Marnie.
love the respect put on Snorlax in this video, from Leon being impressed by its strength, to Marnie needing her ace to take it out. It’s truly one of the GOATS.
That fake out ending almost got me! Ash vs Hop is gonna be crazy. New moves for Ash’s returning Pokemon: Scraggy: Scary Face, Head Smash Snorlax: High Horsepower Noivern: Hurricane, Dragon Pulse Torterra: Rock Slide
Aight, four things I need to say about this: 1. That Urshifu fake-out is basically Ash Vs. Hau, but executed better. 2. I personally like how often you use the move Play Rough in this series since the actual anime only used the move twice (I’m guessing it’s because the animators didn’t know how to portray it without making it look silly) 3. You made me love Grimmsnarl more than I already do, also THANK YOU for making Incineroar battle. It’s last appearance made me really salty 4. Giving Mons like Torkoal, Torterra, and Noivern a chance to redeem themselves for their poor batting records is a great touch

Naw, that sounds like an ass pull. Kubfu can only pick which form it evolves into when it’s in its unevolved state. Urshifu can’t change forms after you’ve picked the one to evolve it into
@@ma3mc3mu-X”Neglecting Galar” we just going to pretend that Ash didn’t have two Galar Pokémon and his toughest challenges in Journeys weren’t against Galar trainers like Bea, Raihan, and Leon!?
Cause this is made by a pokemon fan who wanted to see a good sword and shield series but got disappointment so he went all thanos and he did it himself
@@Rippen_Crippen Still, Galar got the least attention. The Darkest Day was rushed to high heaven. Eternatus doesn’t deserve a second chance. Many Galar Pokemon never got the spotlight.
The plot twist where Incineroar was not going to be the final Pokemon was really good. But when Urshifu was down , i was like noooo, nice recall to Rowlet when it was sleep was knocked out in the alola league. Ash vs Hop is about to be epic. Hop has grown so much. If Ash loses, i wouldn’t even be mad.
Loved the battle between Ash and Marine! This battle was hyped up and it didn't disappoint. And while Marine may have lost, I'm sure she'll become an even better Gym Leader than her brother and change Spikemuth for the better. Now all that's left is the finals with Ash vs Hop. I can't wait to see what the battle holds. Looking forward to the final round of the Galar League.
This fight was great. Finally Incineroar getting some action. Urshifu's fake K.O. reminds me of infamous Ash vs Hau, but here sleeping status was revealed before referee's call and it was caused by proper side effect of G-Max Snooze. Hop was OP. Dude basically swept most of the competition, even defeated Raihan with 3 mons remaining.
@@imnotjulian78 not really since even as a kubfu it was never a lazy sack of potatoes and actually took battling seriously instead of treating it like a joke
I love how youre handling Ash's reserves. Anyone else would probably just spam aces and whoever has a high win rate, but you instead build teams of those who had less than stellar results prior, so they HAVE to do good. Its the perfect redemption.
@@Zactoshi not all of them Trash like Torkoal, Noivern and Torterra have a long ways to go before they can truly make up for being the weaklings they ended up being
Awesome episodes. Hop defeated Raihan and Ash defeated Marnie. I did like that Incineroar actually had a battle unlike how it was handled on To Be a Pokemon Master on just helping out a Beartic. Urshifu was surprising for the last part of the match changing from Single Strike to Rapid Strike. Definitely looking forward to how Ash vs Hop turns out. Great work.
Hop went from struggling throughout the first half or so to being the most dominant competitor in the League. He'll be a heck of a final obstacle for Ash.
@@henriquemagalhaes278 Beating his brother's rival was obviously an ideal final step before facing Ash, but doing it the way he did was something else.
For Ash and Hop’s final battle, I think it would only be right if Ash uses his main six Galar Pokemon, Pikachu, Rillaboom, Corviknight, Drednaw, Centiskorch and Urshifu. And Hop uses his original team, Dubwool, Cinderace, Boltund, Sirfetch’d, Rhyperior and Blastiose. Then again, I’m pretty sure you were gonna do that anyway
I agree, and then during the battle against Leon, ash will probably use G-Max Pikachu along with unused regional aces Charzard, Sceptile, Lycanroc, Krookodile, and who knows, Greninja MIGHT just pop up for not a brief visit at all🤞🏽

@@alphaaquilla1359 He does plan to a Scarlet and Violet Rewrite as well as an entire series rewrite from Original to Sun and Moon. I don't know about if he'll include Journeys though.
Incredibly well thought out and a genuinely thrilling series you've together. Also as a Torterra fan I LOVE the redemption for him, this in my mind is honestly the canon follow up to Sun and Moon now. Great work!
Ash's Incineroar getting a chance to fight was amazing. I also really enjoyed seeing his Torkoal, Torterra, and Noivern get more love too! And his Urshifu changing forms???? What a twist! Another great episode!
another perfect video! marnie was holding back against piers but he reassures her to go all out. hop vs raihan was cool! hop took out half of his team, then raihan retaliates it reminds him of his humiliating loss against leon, and doesnt want to go through that again, and uses that pain to fuel him up. and lastly, ash vs marnie was SPECTACULAR! finally torterra and noivern get a win! snorlax was a beast as always, and its great to see incineroar get a win as well, since it didnt get that chance during aim to be mid. ushifu vs grimmsnarl was way past cool! it changed into mustard,s ushifu to get the upper hand, when it was struggling to fight the sleep, i almost lost it cause i thought ash lost. but urshifu gets up and grimmsnarl falls. this surpasses ash vs marnie in journeys. and i am psyched for ash vs hop! again, solid vid bro!
That was epic! Hoppleton cleaving through Raihan, Snorlax and Incineroar doing well, Noivern getting his redemption and that close call against Marnie, wow! Truly an invigorating league video!
And he got a win. Thought he didn't but I went back and he beat gothitelle. And to think I said he was a disappointment for not getting a KO here til Zac corrected me
Here’s my prediction for the Final 2 matches. VS Hop: Galar Team - We haven’t seen Rillaboom or Drednaw. - Urshifu probably wants more time with its double style. - Pikachu obviously to win finals. - Corviknight and Centiscorch don’t need the attention as much but we can’t just abandon them seeing as we’re using the other Galar mons. *Any of these mons could be the G-MAX though I see it being Rillaboom against Cinderace. VS Leon: Unseen Aces Team, I forget if this is the team Zac put together in his best Ash team video but I just feel this could be his best team. - Pikachu again, I know I said unseen aces but we need Pikachu. Either G-MAX or Z-Move slot. - Charizard was Kanto/Johto Ace. - Sceptile was Hoenn Ace. - Krookodile was Unova Ace. - Lycanroc for Alola, it might not be the Alola Ace but it’s still very strong seeing as it won him the Alola Finals. Potentially is Z-Move slot. - Greninja was Kalos Ace. Takes up Mega Evolution slot. *Overall this team has no type overlap and could very much go toe to toe with Leon. Quick note, amazing work with this series Zac, I adore it!
It was great seeing Hop continue to gain his development while also showing not only Leon but those close to Leon what he's made of. Meanwhile once again Ash's choices for his battle with Marnie this time was superb! Loved seeing Noivern & Torterra get a chance to shine, & even Scraggy was able to do his part! Marnie had a great character arc and was constantly likeable. Also... Was that a blush? 👀👀👀
The pokemon galar season that we needed and we didn´t know😭. Keep it up the fantastic work man, love the story and the battles, they are straight up🔥🔥🔥
@@Zactoshi That was a smart way doing plot armor without it seeming forced like Journeys. Plus I'd like to think it works like Melotta's Relic Song where it changes form depending on which move is used. But in the Gmax form it stays as Single Strike form so Surging Strike becomes Max Geyser that's cool. So I'm guessing it replaced close combat with Surging Strike, huh?
Imagine how funny it would be if team yell’s cheering was what waked up Urshifu from the G-Max Snooze’s affects Great episode as always, I’m ecstatic for the galar league finals!
I love This series. I think its so cool How you introduce new things too the pokemon world for example with that calyrex form and now an urshifu that Can change forms!!!! I hope you continue This series into paldea😍
@@eljordinio7647 Complete sense, if you ask me. That's the same team that he used in their first 6v6 after Ash's gym battle with Opal. While it would be cool to see some of his older veterans (Charizard, Krookodile, Sceptile, Lycanroc, etc), to me it takes away the tension between them and it would make the battle flat-out boring since we know for a fact that charizard would sweep at least 2 of his mons. From a storytelling standpoint, Ash only using his galar mons makes the most sense.
@@eljordinio7647yeah man it's not ash's fault that his torterra and noivern suck in the anime it was the producers along with the writers for not giving torterra along with noivern moves that could have helped them win battles that they could have won!
@@pennywaltz4601 oh yeah? It's like Paul said, a loss is the trainer's own fault Ash should have dumped them instead of wasting his time on lost causes
@pennywaltz4601 The guy you're replying to is most likely a Bot who doesn't know crap. I agree on poor writing on the anime staffs part. Especially what happened to the disaster that was called Best Wishes. Trip had so much potential as a character & got boring towards the end. Cameron, I don't want to begin with Him.
Snorlax being the amazing big boi he is! Scraggy, Torterra and Noivern coming back with a win! Finally us thinking Incineroar was the final pokemon only for us to learn that it was Urushifu who can change styles! The funniest part was Urushifu pulling a Rowlett at the end! Great video and looking forward to the next one!
What a great episode! Ash's older pokemon like Torterra and Noivern finally got some justice down for them and even got some much needed moveset updates! Also was NOT expecting Urshifu to switch between styles like that, that was insane!!! Maybe we can see something like with Calyrex and Urshifu can use both at once?
What I would love to see is Ash Vs Leon ending in a tie with Eternatus Vs Nebby as the tie-breaker. Make Eternatus Eternamax and Nebby change into Dusk Mane Necrozma and Ultra Necrozma:-D
That fake out was so good but you were so evil to pull that -but it was a pretty nice little reference to alola and since rowlet did the same thing I can’t be mad😂
10:25 Nah Urshifu did a Rowlet there bruv I also like the teams you make Ash use and made him use Pokemon that we would’ve both loved to see back and better than ever. And Pokemon who had bad reputation sadly like Noivern, Torterra, and Torkoal by giving them a win or two proving that yes they may be the worst but they still are strong beasts when they need to be
That form change with Urshifu was awesome, a little plot armory but still that was so cool plus it's temporary thing unlike ash-greninja so I can wrap my head around that. Also, Zac my man you are the biggest anipoke troll ever! You got us good, mate! Now its time for Ash vs Hop! Who will win and face off against Leon? Find out next time on Pokemon Sword and Shield: Crowning Legacy! Also update on everyone's moveset. Scraggy: Scary face, Focus Blast, Hi Jump Kick, Head Smash Incineroar: Revenge, Fire Blast, Darkest Lariat, Fire Fang Snorlax: Rest, Body Slam, Ice Punch, High Horsepower Noivern: Boomburst, Hurricane, Dragon Claw, Dragon Pulse Torterra: Synthesis, Energy Ball, Frenzy Plant, Rock Slide And Urshifu: Wicked Blow, Surging Strike, Aerial Ace, Brick Break.
I really thought Incineroar was gonna be the final Pokémon Ash would against Grimmsnarl, but I also got more surprised when Urshifu learned its other forms, signature move, and when Urshifu went down it brought me back to watching Ash's Rowlet falling asleep in the Alola league
If there’s an Urshifu who can actually have do that, somebody tell me. Edit: team prediction against hop Pikachu Rillaboom Lycanroc Talonflame Corphish Tauros
Torterra boys rise up!
Present 🫡
Cheers to the Sinnoh Tank
Yooooooo he back!
Fun fact. This is Torterra’s first EVER official win after fully evolving. NO, Team Rocket DOESN’T COUNT.

It makes sense that Urshifu looked like it fainted. Gmax Snooze's Yawn effect will do that to you. 😴🥱
I don’t get why and how hop is stronger than ash. Look at hop’s pokemon and ash’s pokemon. Ash is the Alola champion and he barely wins the semi final while hop demolishes raihan.
Yeah I admit I don’t really like that but I’ll take it over Journeys Leon sweeping champions
It’s brings noivern win rate from 30% to 33% was pretty good
So now Ash has Ultra instinct Infernape, Ash Greninja, and Cobra Kai and Miyagi-do Master Urshingfu, and I think we all know this guy is setting up Super saiyon Pikachu we saw in te real thing

Marnie: No… it can’t be, not, PLOT ARMOR!

Why is this better than the actual anime. Having Ashs old Pokemon makes more sense than whatever they did with the anime.

The way you are single handedly keeping the Pokémon anime alive. I hope they’re cutting you a hefty check. 😭💪🏿
You can do it Ash!😊
Here’s my prediction for the Final 2 matches.
VS Hop: Galar Team
- We haven’t seen Rillaboom or Drednaw.
- Urshifu probably wants more time with its double style.
- Pikachu obviously to win finals.
- Corviknight and Centiscorch don’t need the attention as much but we can’t just abandon them seeing as we’re using the other Galar mons.
*Any of these mons could be the G-MAX though I see it being Rillaboom against Cinderace.
VS Leon: Unseen Aces Team, I forget if this is the team Zac put together in his best Ash team video but I just feel this could be his best team.
- Pikachu again, I know I said unseen aces but we need Pikachu. Either G-MAX or Z-Move slot.
- Charizard was Kanto/Johto Ace.
- Sceptile was Hoenn Ace.
- Krookodile was Unova Ace.
- Lycanroc for Alola, it might not be the Alola Ace but it’s still very strong seeing as it won him the Alola Finals. Potentially is Z-Move slot.
- Greninja was Kalos Ace. Takes up Mega Evolution slot.
*Overall this team has no type overlap and could very much go toe to toe with Leon. Quick note, amazing work with this series Zac, I adore it!
Oh heck yeah Incineroar is back
Noivern got his justice that he needed
Noiven said: Im the ace now bitch.
Still not enough to save his rep but yeah
That was battle that was burning with fires of passion can't wait for Ash Vs Hop
Wish you included Snorlax's Hyper Beam. Next to Body Slam, that was pretty much his signature finisher. It was pretty useful in the Johto League.

I'm hoping Marnie will stick around cheer for Ash during his match with Hop.
No hate to the writers and staff of the Pokémon anime, but your a better writer than those so called professionals will ever be.
The pokemon galar season that we needed and we didn´t know😭. Keep it up the fantastic work man, love the story and the battles, they are straight up🔥🔥🔥
That was a roller coaster to say the least
Aw let's go, Incineroar's back!!
I love this ,I would be frustrated with school work and when I saw these videos I became happy again
That means a lot! Glad my content can cheer you up 🙂
INCINEROAR!!!! I predict the other team members are gonna be Krookodile, Kingler, Snorlax, Swellow and Scraggy.
Well you got 2 right
@@BisonGaming3334 yep and I’m proud of myself 😤
U got some right
I was expecting a Darkest Lariat beyblade-style clash! 🔥🌙💥
You know Urshifu's busted when he can suddenly switch between his styles at will
Les Go! Incineroar is back! I hope he shows us his true power!
That was a hell of a roller coaster!
Curious about Urshifu switching styles. Was that foreshadowed before? I don't really recall, but it was cool!
In the battle against Mustard, and the battle against Rinto in the Sinnoh Festival 😉
@@ZactoshiI wonder if Urshifu can do that in the future
@@eljordinio7647 he's 100% going to use that against Leon.
@@Zactoshi That was a smart way doing plot armor without it seeming forced like Journeys. Plus I'd like to think it works like Melotta's Relic Song where it changes form depending on which move is used. But in the Gmax form it stays as Single Strike form so Surging Strike becomes Max Geyser that's cool.
So I'm guessing it replaced close combat with Surging Strike, huh?
@@t-ut7ez hopefully he can get aat least one KO or even two against Leon with that
Seems like Marnieis crushing on Ash a little bit😂
And we saw Serena watching Ash’s battles lets hope she got bad wifi or smth 💀🙏🏼
💀😂
@@kaydenahmed Or meet Lillie
Team Rocket is destined to be haunted by Morpeko across all timelines
Imagine how funny it would be if team yell’s cheering was what waked up Urshifu from the G-Max Snooze’s affects
Great episode as always, I’m ecstatic for the galar league finals!
I love This series. I think its so cool How you introduce new things too the pokemon world for example with that calyrex form and now an urshifu that Can change forms!!!! I hope you continue This series into paldea😍
Thank you 😁

Here, only Urshifu's WP changes, gaining a win against Marnie's Grimmsnarl. As of now, Rillaboom and Pikachu still have yet to make a GL appearance. This, im assuming is going to happen for the finals.
So far they're all still good, which is good to see
I got a feeling that similar to how ash used his sinnoh team against Paul, Ash is going to use his Galar team against Hop
It only makes sense
@@eljordinio7647 Complete sense, if you ask me. That's the same team that he used in their first 6v6 after Ash's gym battle with Opal. While it would be cool to see some of his older veterans (Charizard, Krookodile, Sceptile, Lycanroc, etc), to me it takes away the tension between them and it would make the battle flat-out boring since we know for a fact that charizard would sweep at least 2 of his mons. From a storytelling standpoint, Ash only using his galar mons makes the most sense.
Creating something this good should be illegal 😂
P.S that Ash Pull at the end was funny, do more 😂
I’m guessing we’re getting a new win rate for these Pokémon which is why noivern and torterra are back
Still not enough to outweigh their losses but it was nice to see them get a win for a change
@@eljordinio7647yeah man it's not ash's fault that his torterra and noivern suck in the anime it was the producers along with the writers for not giving torterra along with noivern moves that could have helped them win battles that they could have won!
@@pennywaltz4601 oh yeah? It's like Paul said, a loss is the trainer's own fault
Ash should have dumped them instead of wasting his time on lost causes
@pennywaltz4601 The guy you're replying to is most likely a Bot who doesn't know crap. I agree on poor writing on the anime staffs part. Especially what happened to the disaster that was called Best Wishes. Trip had so much potential as a character & got boring towards the end. Cameron, I don't want to begin with Him.
@@joshuafrizzell7856 if u really think I'm some kind of bot you're out of your mind
THIS WAS PERFECT
Snorlax being the amazing big boi he is! Scraggy, Torterra and Noivern coming back with a win! Finally us thinking Incineroar was the final pokemon only for us to learn that it was Urushifu who can change styles! The funniest part was Urushifu pulling a Rowlett at the end! Great video and looking forward to the next one!
Ursifhu used Ultra Instinct and then went Ash-Greninja by going rapid style BAHAHAHAHA classic Ash comeback and I love it!
INCINEROAR MAKING HIS PROPER RETURN 🔥🔥🔥
Man Hop is really killing it!!! I hope Ash gives him a run for his money in there battle. Excellent as always ZAC!!
I didn't expect Urshifu to pull a Rowlet at the end😂❤
Marnie x Ash???
I see the blush
What a great episode! Ash's older pokemon like Torterra and Noivern finally got some justice down for them and even got some much needed moveset updates! Also was NOT expecting Urshifu to switch between styles like that, that was insane!!! Maybe we can see something like with Calyrex and Urshifu can use both at once?
What I would love to see is Ash Vs Leon ending in a tie with Eternatus Vs Nebby as the tie-breaker. Make Eternatus Eternamax and Nebby change into Dusk Mane Necrozma and Ultra Necrozma:-D
That fake out was so good but you were so evil to pull that
-but it was a pretty nice little reference to alola and since rowlet did the same thing I can’t be mad😂
Oh man this was another amaizng job, freakin love these stories from you. That ending almost caught me off caught.
10:25
Nah Urshifu did a Rowlet there bruv
I also like the teams you make Ash use and made him use Pokemon that we would’ve both loved to see back and better than ever. And Pokemon who had bad reputation sadly like Noivern, Torterra, and Torkoal by giving them a win or two proving that yes they may be the worst but they still are strong beasts when they need to be
It's going to take more than one win to redeem those deadweights
10:12 not gonna lie. That almost got me
You got us good, Zac!
I got trolled 😔
Dude you gave me a fucking heart attack with that fake out loss. And that was perfect!! Another Banger job man
Yes! Finally torterra and noivern getting some love and respect.
Nah hold up bro that urshifu changing battle styles was plot armor
Had a feeling urshifu would have some special ability for ash
That form change with Urshifu was awesome, a little plot armory but still that was so cool plus it's temporary thing unlike ash-greninja so I can wrap my head around that. Also, Zac my man you are the biggest anipoke troll ever! You got us good, mate! Now its time for Ash vs Hop! Who will win and face off against Leon? Find out next time on Pokemon Sword and Shield: Crowning Legacy!
Also update on everyone's moveset.
Scraggy: Scary face, Focus Blast, Hi Jump Kick, Head Smash
Incineroar: Revenge, Fire Blast, Darkest Lariat, Fire Fang
Snorlax: Rest, Body Slam, Ice Punch, High Horsepower
Noivern: Boomburst, Hurricane, Dragon Claw, Dragon Pulse
Torterra: Synthesis, Energy Ball, Frenzy Plant, Rock Slide
And Urshifu: Wicked Blow, Surging Strike, Aerial Ace, Brick Break.
😮ROWLET MEMORYS LMAOOO
I really thought Incineroar was gonna be the final Pokémon Ash would against Grimmsnarl, but I also got more surprised when Urshifu learned its other forms, signature move, and when Urshifu went down it brought me back to watching Ash's Rowlet falling asleep in the Alola league
That call back to the Alola pokemon league tho
The homie Incineroar is back too
Zach I am so glad incinearoar is comeing back.pls Make more olive the content
This is such a better battle against Marnie than what we got in Journeys
If there’s an Urshifu who can actually have do that, somebody tell me.
Edit: team prediction against hop
Pikachu
Rillaboom
Lycanroc
Talonflame
Corphish
Tauros
no
It’s an anime thing
@@tulitoteye9290 damn!
@@owlbert2020 Crap baskets. I wish sword and shield can make this possible.
If only
The returns of ash's old pokemon in action
Urshifu is like greninja 2.0 and i looove it😁 the fact it can change form is incredible!😍
I wonder if Urshifu will be able to do that in future games so u can have both forms at will
The King! LET’S GOOOOOOO!!!!
I love how Victor is basically a 4th companion this whole series similar to Bianca in BW and Korrina in XY
Marnies drip is crazy
Even in a rewrite, Noivern is still taking L's.
Pain.
And pathetic.
One win doesn't make up for all its past failures
