Ash should have battled Lance and had a rematch with Drake (Hoenn) at some point. It would have been cool to see Pokemon like Charizard, Sceptile, and Krookodile take on those dragons.
I really liked when Elites got to teach Ash a thing or two. In some writing I've done, I've gotten attached to the idea of Bertha being a mentor + surrogate grandmother to Ash, and helping him push his skills & personal development further. Thanks for the compilation, Prof. Silver!
People talk about rematches with Alain or Tobias, but I think the one battle we were truly robbed of during Journeys was Ash going head to head with Lance; the top trainer of Kanto! It just makes the most sense because Ash is Kanto born ya know?
Idea for a video. Trainers who could compete in the next World World Coronation Series/Masters Eight Tournament. Could be a pretty interesting idea to do, plenty of other trainers from the anime who could participate in the next WCS to compete against Ash the next Master Eight.
Marshal would be the best option for Ash to have interacted with if had appeared in the BW series, he would’ve had an impact on his growth as a trainer going through Unova. A Conkeldurr vs Pignite battle would’ve been interesting.
I got to say this is a really wholesome topic that you chose to focus on! It truly is the story of how an underdog went on to become a world champion! The fact that flint was initially in the masters eight, but wasn’t in it by the time Ash was, prove that beating Drasna was no fluke. I still wish we could’ve seen ash attempt to take on the elite for using Pokémon we believe would be on his ultimate team like Charizard, Sceptile, and snorlax
Fun 🤩 Fact about the Battle Frontier: in the games including Pokémon Emerald it’s located on an island 🏝️ off the coast of Hoenn and in the anime it’s located in Kanto
Thank you Professor! I loved hearing about the Elite Four. Ever since Pokémon Red Version, Lance has been one of my favorite characters in the franchise. Knowing that he, and the other Elite Four members, helped shaped Ash into a true Pokémon master put a smile on my face. On a side note, I have a suggestion that I believe would make for an engaging and informative video for your audience. Team Rocket's Meowth, with its unique backstory and character development, has always fascinated me, and I think it would be an excellent topic for one of your videos. I'm sure your in-depth analysis and commentary on Meowth would provide a fresh and interesting perspective for Pokémon enthusiasts.
I wonder how Ash's interactions would be like if he met other Elite Four members: Glacia, Phoebe, Sidney, Marshal, Grimsley, Shauntal? Edit: I forgot Siebold, as he only appeared in the first Mega Evolution Special where he defeated Alain and never met Ash.
@@ProfessorAlexSilver I wish that Ash had time to train his other pokemon as champion level. If Corphish could not beat Misty's Politoed, what chance did it have in Masters Tournament?
Just like in real life when you think you know everything there is someone who knows more. Like the OG WRESTLER Rowdy Piper would say: just when you think you have all the answers someone comes and changes the question. Ash got a life lesson from each and every one of the elite 4 members he's met in his life or just about. It's all about strategy not power. Can't wait to see what awaits ash now
this video was awesome man, people understate the impact the elite 4 of the pokemon world has had on our champion. I didnt even realize it till I watched this video
His ultimate success turned out to be a double edge sword because it marked the end of his era. To think there were times where I detested seen him compete in league, after a league, only to fail to win every time and wishing he would win. Just goes to show you should be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.
The E4 should have done more in the anime. We should have actually seen a champion league at some point to really show how powerful they are supposed to be. Lance was dope though
I agree that Caitlin didn’t contribute much to Ash which always bothered me it would’ve been interesting seeing them actually interact and I see why you skipped Alola while Ash did meet the elite four but they had not yet be formed yet and I would’ve liked of Journeys introduced more of the elite four Members he hadn’t meet as they could’ve helped his team like Wikstrom and Drasna did like Phoebe or Shauntal could’ve helped Gengar Mashal could’ve helped Lucario and I wished Drake had helped with Dragonite or Dracovish in his return.
I never wanted to be a Champion. I always wanted to be a member of the Elite 4. They were so cool, so here is my story. In the Ochulu Region, the Elite 4 are known as the four guardians of Ochulu. Inspired by the cardinal points and the four elements: Ground, Flying, Water and Fire. A superior squadron of trainers sworn to embody the power of the sacred dragons that watch over Ochulu. My Character, Cyan, is the Guardian of the West; He specializes in water types. Cyan is a Water Pokemon Alpha Omega. He is also the Top Coordinator of the Kanto Region. He also served as challenging Gym Leader. Cyan can quickly adapt and change his battle strategy to fit his needs. He knows how to display the beauty and power of water type Pokemon. Because of this, he was chosen to be the Dragon of Water. Cyan is a gentle, wise, patient and compassionate teacher. His most important lessons are to teach up and coming trainers the importance of facing adversity and overcoming type weaknesses. To Cyan, the key to success is knowing the individual Pokemon's strengths and using them to their advantage. He puts particular emphasis in being able to listen to your Pokemon. The more intune a trainer is with his team, the stronger they will become. And finally, he teaches that loosing is a chance to learn and grow from mistakes and eventually become a trainer stronger because of them. Cyan is a fierce battler and has taken down many opponents. He relies on three Pokemon the most. He use Gyarados for sheer physical strength and Starmie for special power and speed, but his ace is his life long partner, Blastoise. Cyan's Blastoise is a perfect blend of offensive and defensive power. Many opponents have lost to him. Their bond is so deep, Cyan's Blastoise can mega evolve. He can also gigantamax and terastalize into a dragon type. Cyan's bond with Blastoise is unbreakable and rarely have they ever lost to an opponent, but if they do, they do it with dignity and grace. Cyan's reputation is legendary, but he couldn't have done it without his ace and his team. Anybody else like it? I'd love to find my fellow elite four members. Here's what I imagine their aces would be. Dragon of the North: Garchomp Dragon South: Charizard Dragon of the East: Noizern
I have to see a remath between ash and flint! That beatdown was just too soul crushing! I need to see flint's overpowered infernape get taken down a rank! Ash's Sceptile, Greninja, or Lucario would be an awesome matchup against Flint's Infernape.
Elite 4 earn their title and surely and undoubtly had impacted Ash to truly becoming the best like no one ever was. Ofc my favorite was and will always be Lance, he such a badass. In conclusion this video was good, I like it
The elite 4 certainly kept Ash in his place when he needed it for sure as each time he was starting to get over confident/arrogant they would show how much further he needed to go still. If he was to battle any of them again flint would be cool and if anyone else Lance given their history. It could even end in a draw instead of winning
I wish Ash could've battled all the member's of the Elite 4, & all the champions in Journey's. Back in the OG series, Prima was a good start for Ash. I think Drake was a rough one with Ash. Ash getting schooled by him was a good thing. Ash was impatient, rough & hot tempered in Hoenn & needed to chill out. Ash needed to use Bertha's advice even more. I wish Ash could've battled & beaten Wikstrom in Journey's. I've noticed both Ash & Alain have both battled 2 different members of the Kalos Elite 4 & both have beaten one of them each. Those two have a lot in common. For battles I'd have like to see: Ash vs Lance - Full Battle - these teams in my vision & pokemon they should also have: Ash's Team: Pikachu, Mega Charizard Y, Dynamax Dragonite, Naganadel, Dracovish, & Tyranitar Lance's Team: Dynamax Dragonite, Gyarados, Hydreigon, Mega Aerodactyl, Druddigon, & Dragapult
It would’ve been cool if Ash battled Lance with Pikachu, Dragonite, and Gengar (cause they all Gen 1). It would’ve been awesome for Pikachu’s 10 million volt thunderbolt gyarados. Plus it would’ve given poor Dragonite one more win (against Lance’s Dragonite, cementing her as the second strongest dragon in the anime, especially after beating Dragapult (behind Cynthia’s Garchomp, of course)).
I would love to see ash Battle Bruno but not as ash was in kanto but in journeys or after he became champion thst would be awesome! What would you prefer professor silver?
Hey ik you proably won't answer but what do you think about making video like "every time Ash became a stronger trainer" It would be cool to see his evolution from being blitzed by every e4 member, to defeating Cynthia
Wish Ash and Pikachu also faced off against Elite Fours Member's Shauntel, Seibolt, Grimsley, Marshal, Phoebe, Glacia, Karen, Rika, Poppy, and also Will before leaving the Pokemon Anime Series Franchise's!
I always wish that Ash faced the actual elite four instead of random trainers, although I guess it would’ve been too much battling that many Pokémon rather than three on three
Ash should have battled Lance and had a rematch with Drake (Hoenn) at some point. It would have been cool to see Pokemon like Charizard, Sceptile, and Krookodile take on those dragons.
I would've love to see either showdown
While I’d also like to see that, I believe Lance & Drake could beat that team.
@@ProfessorAlexSilverdon’t worry, instead of the e4, he loses to his bestie misty
@@ProfessorAlexSilverI THINK THE REAL REASON CHARIZARD STOPPED OBEYING ASH BECAUSE MAYBE HE THOUGHT ASH WAS USING HIM AS A TOOL IN BATTLE
I really liked when Elites got to teach Ash a thing or two. In some writing I've done, I've gotten attached to the idea of Bertha being a mentor + surrogate grandmother to Ash, and helping him push his skills & personal development further.
Thanks for the compilation, Prof. Silver!
En las novelas y anime se ha visto que ese es el papel del profesor Oak
The Elite Four were never too prominent but I'm happy with how they're used when they were used.
People talk about rematches with Alain or Tobias, but I think the one battle we were truly robbed of during Journeys was Ash going head to head with Lance; the top trainer of Kanto! It just makes the most sense because Ash is Kanto born ya know?
Ash may be inexperienced at first but he did learn the lesson of humility as character development time to time.
Idea for a video.
Trainers who could compete in the next World World Coronation Series/Masters Eight Tournament.
Could be a pretty interesting idea to do, plenty of other trainers from the anime who could participate in the next WCS to compete against Ash the next Master Eight.
That could be a fun one! I did a video last year about eight other trainers for the Masters 8 that is similar
Marshal would be the best option for Ash to have interacted with if had appeared in the BW series, he would’ve had an impact on his growth as a trainer going through Unova. A Conkeldurr vs Pignite battle would’ve been interesting.
I would've liked more Elite 4 battles in general. Seeing Ash beat more of them in Journeys would have been epic.
@@ProfessorAlexSilver Ash could’ve met back up with Bruno and battled in journeys.
What topic should we tackle next??
How Ash learned from each gym leader
Ash's goodra😐
Ash's Bayleef or Hawlucha. Or Drew's or Maylene's Team.
Ash's rowlet
How about league champions impacted Ash as a trainer
I always wanted someone talking about the elite four in the anime
My pleasure, and thank you so much! Your Super Thanks is much appreciated :)

Please Professor Do The Complete History Of Paul's Honchkrow Next Week Please
Fun 🤩 Fact about the Battle Frontier: in the games including Pokémon Emerald it’s located on an island 🏝️ off the coast of Hoenn and in the anime it’s located in Kanto
Bless Prima, and it wish he battle/beat at least 3 more elite 4 members instead of just Drasna during Journey
I think it was awesome that sinoh each of the elite four were present
Flint and Volker’s friendship is awesome
I wonder what Liko’s interactions with Rika, Poppy, Larry and Hassel are gonna be, or what Ash offscreen is gonna interact with the Paldea Elite 4
Thanks for the amazing video Professor Alex ❤
My pleasure!
Awesome video
Would love a gym leader version too
Rival version too
I'm thinking of doing individual videos on each major rivalry :)

Edit: I forgot Siebold, as he only appeared in the first Mega Evolution Special where he defeated Alain and never met Ash.
If it were post Leon-battle, it'd be a beatdown of epic proportions by the world champ :D
@@ProfessorAlexSilveryo. Do ash's talonflame
@@ProfessorAlexSilver I wish that Ash had time to train his other pokemon as champion level. If Corphish could not beat Misty's Politoed, what chance did it have in Masters Tournament?
@@jetguy128 Me too. The writers never understood why ignoring Ash's reserves proved to be the most hated concept of all time until it was too late.
Ash is gonna make a comeback in: *Jayson’s Nightmare* & *Cody’s Comic World*
One of Ash's losses reminds me when Brandon defeat Paul and teach him a lesson

We need a complete history of Ash’s torterra
Love your vids 🤩
Thx!!
He’s come a long way 😅I’m so proud
Likewise :)
His ultimate success turned out to be a double edge sword because it marked the end of his era. To think there were times where I detested seen him compete in league, after a league, only to fail to win every time and wishing he would win. Just goes to show you should be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.

Lance was dope though
Thanks for posting Professor Silver! You rock! Can you do a video on sprigatito?
Great suggestion!
I agree that Caitlin didn’t contribute much to Ash which always bothered me it would’ve been interesting seeing them actually interact and I see why you skipped Alola while Ash did meet the elite four but they had not yet be formed yet and I would’ve liked of Journeys introduced more of the elite four Members he hadn’t meet as they could’ve helped his team like Wikstrom and Drasna did like Phoebe or Shauntal could’ve helped Gengar Mashal could’ve helped Lucario and I wished Drake had helped with Dragonite or Dracovish in his return.
I remember when Agatha showed up and being shocked as I never thought she’d ever show up in anime
Meeting them is enough for him to make him the best he can be honestly 🔥

Anybody else like it? I'd love to find my fellow elite four members. Here's what I imagine their aces would be.
Dragon of the North: Garchomp
Dragon South: Charizard
Dragon of the East: Noizern
I have to see a remath between ash and flint! That beatdown was just too soul crushing! I need to see flint's overpowered infernape get taken down a rank! Ash's Sceptile, Greninja, or Lucario would be an awesome matchup against Flint's Infernape.
Do you know Koga is also the 6th gym leader in the games and anime
The more you know :)
My favorite part is Agatha defeat Ash with her Gengar
Great vid!

It's thanks to these shows as a kid i learned to not follow the "META" moveset like using choice items or sacrificing team members to help set up.
サトピカはかっこよくて素敵ですな。
1:48 Prima was Actually Lorelei, she just didnt use her real name fir some reason
Nice video alex
Pueden hacer una historia de ash hawlucha history complete.
Lance appearing in Hoenn was nice nod to FireRed and LeafGreen
Do you know that Pokémon the Movie 2000 was my favorite 🤩 Pokémon movie 🍿
Lance got really old hahahahaha loved the pink hair in johto
One of my earliest Pokémon memories was watching the Advanced series and seeing a cocky Ash get HUMBLED by Drake.
Inspirational.
Ash should’ve battled one of the unova elite four . They weren’t present in the anime , apart from one
It might be just me, but I never understood why the dub changes Lorelei's name to Prima
An idea how about going through all the gym leaders that have beaten Ash in battle and how the losses pushed him to do better
Great video
I wish Ash could've battled all the member's of the Elite 4, & all the champions in Journey's. Back in the OG series, Prima was a good start for Ash. I think Drake was a rough one with Ash.

Ash vs Lance - Full Battle - these teams in my vision & pokemon they should also have:
Ash's Team: Pikachu, Mega Charizard Y, Dynamax Dragonite, Naganadel, Dracovish, & Tyranitar
Lance's Team: Dynamax Dragonite, Gyarados, Hydreigon, Mega Aerodactyl, Druddigon, & Dragapult
❤❤❤❤
Getting close to 100k
Its crazy tho what is the elite four roles in the show tho because when do you face them or what do you have to do to battle them in the show
Drake has a cool design
Ash vs Prima rematch should have happened
Question 🙋♀️, do you like 👍 Dawn with or without her hat 👒?
I just hate how he never saw prima again. I bet ash could beat her this time.
I want to see him battle Karen, Rika, Grimsley and Larry!

@@ProfessorAlexSilver I was also kinda thinking Pokémon from both kanto and johto but those ones that you mentioned work too!
Ash battle 6 sets of elite 4 in future

Hey ik you proably won't answer but what do you think about making video like "every time Ash became a stronger trainer" It would be cool to see his evolution from being blitzed by every e4 member, to defeating Cynthia

Some day!
@@ProfessorAlexSilver when?😐
Since you did one for of the Elite 4.... think you can do one for of like say the Champions that Ash has met along the way, Alex? :3
I used to think Bruno might be Ash’s dad
Flint And siebold is best❤
Flint is quite powerful :)
I would love to see flint battle professor kukui or have him and volkner have tag team battle against ash and kukui!
excluding lance
flint is probably the most remarquable elite four to ever exist in the anime
What about when he battled Alder?
Is there a vid on Brock's Bonsly, such a cool pokemon...
It's still kinda upsetting that most of the johto and unova Elite four never appeared in the anime
Not to mention if Karen were to appear then Brock would totally go bonkers!
@@NOLJAK101 I know I would lol 😂
Don't forget that Drake was the only Hoenn Elite Four to appear in the anime.
@@hiddenfan-37I nearly forgot about that
Ash went from getting whooped by ghem, to whopping them .
Wish Ash and Pikachu also faced off against Elite Fours Member's Shauntel, Seibolt, Grimsley, Marshal, Phoebe, Glacia, Karen, Rika, Poppy, and also Will before leaving the Pokemon Anime Series Franchise's!
I wish Bruno appeared more
Shouldn’t Koga had been Johto?
I always wish that Ash faced the actual elite four instead of random trainers, although I guess it would’ve been too much battling that many Pokémon rather than three on three
Please feature chikorita's complete history pls pls pls
I think Phoebe should've appeared in the anime since she is a really interesting characther
100%
Professor you said Ash needed years to beat Elite 4
But he is still 10😂😂😂😂 after all those years
History of ashes pikachu in galar or buizel or torterra
Do tserena
On the list!
Furthered goh’s story so not technically filler
Prima is Lorelei
Ash’s Rowlet
On the list!
Not sure how Ash would meet Sydney or Grimsley
5:11 " It be many years", I think you mean "many days". The kids been age 10 for over 26 seasons.
Damn Lorelie a baddie
Isn't prima Lorelei
I mean Ashs win against Drasna was kinda unnecessary.
Ash had just beaten Iris 40 ep prior who was the Unovan champion.
