But Thunder Armor just came out of nowhere without any explanation. At least this has been showed in two battles. Also, Thunder Armor was way worse than this. Ash keeps getting the crystals that could've made Sophocles a interesting Z-Ring user heh. Ash finally got the Steelium-Z!!! Yay! First Eletrium, now Steelium. They just build up Hapu's Golurk for nothing and that's a shame cuz it's a really cool Pokémon. Let Torracat do a GT writers! Like, he just learned Fire Blast last episode and has a pretty decent moveset. I just doesn't think this is the worst "gym battle" Ash has won. I liked some strategies like Pikachu using Electroweb to save itself after getting hit by Tectonic Rage. It sure is very lackluster for a Grand Trial though. Tbh I think this battle wasn't horrible like people think. The beach scene acutally sets up the "soak" scene by having ash get splashed with water shortly before getting shocked so at least it wasn't totally out of nowhere though you could argue with how many times this has happened before, why hasn't ash ever come up with this strategy on purpose before this point. The battle itself was very eh and there was a minor scene of everyone just having fun on the beach that I enjoy. Some parts of me understands that S/M ash has a habit of challenging himself in unreasonable ways but this definitely takes the cake. Hapu didn't have any real answer for Rowlet if it had stayed in the air far enough way to avoid any of mudsdale's moves and would've just kept bombarding it with grass type moves until it fell over. Ash also made it way more difficult on himself than it needed to be by going with Pikachu instead of rowlet. I understand there's precedent for the water somehow making Ground types vulnerable to electric attacks but that doesn't make it any less asinine to see.
