      Working out the reasonably lowest luck-based strategy for a run wouldn't be a thing, if luck didn't exist. So the obvious conclusion is just that the more luck-based his moveset, the better his stats have to be for a reasonably reliable strategy.

      He actually is the first trainer to refuse becoming the champion after winning the League. It's actually a pretty interesting insight into his intentions as a character, and I really appreciated the nuance behind that decision. Seems others had a different opinion on this outcome though, I really enjoy this ending a lot and I feel like it's particularly fitting for the story being presented here. Especially since it's breaking the fairly repetitive mold of "muh muh champion battle". But also, for how he got in, I'm almost sure Team Plasma was behind the scenes manipulating everything so that even if he lost, the League would be threatened in the same way as before. I'm sure they either had people collect badges for him or blackmailed the officiators to let him in to fight the E4 and champ behind his very own back. This I mostly feel due to the castle under the League and Ghetsis already being there??? Like it was almost as if the League was doomed from the moment they set foot in it. I think this is kind of an interesting meta discussion in it of itself because it doesn't get talked about often and could lead to some cool theories IMO.
