    I have to agree about Ash vs Paul. You could see a lot of effort was put into making that battle as entertaining as possible.

    Satoshi vs. Shinji, DP186-188 - Easily the anime's best battle. Three episodes, back-and-forth, full six-on-six, and a variety of different strategies and abilities showcased; the culmination of a rivalry built up for four years and the result of what both characters had learned about each other in that time. I love contrasting the Goukazaru-Elekible sequence (complete with Takeshi's narration) in DP188 with the first meeting between Satoshi and Shinji in DP003, and seeing how far the two of them had come since then in regards to how they now respect each other. And five years later, there still hasn't been a moment in the anime anywhere near as badass as Goukazaru activating Blaze and defeating Elekible, Shinji's signature Pokémon, in the climax with Type: Wild playing in the background. Not to mention other things like: Shinji's Dorapion being a total monster and wiping out Satoshi's Bouysel, Mukuhawk, and Dodaitose in a single sweep; Goukazaru setting an entire field on fire to destroy Toxic Spikes; Pikachu and Yukimenoko battling it out in the fog; Glion finally taking down Dorapion with the techniques the Air Battle Master taught it; the DP003 callback in the Pikachu-Elekible battle, where Shinji turns one of Satoshi's strategies against him. Just great scene after great scene, with excellent character moments for Satoshi and Shinji both, and a spectacular climax.

    The final battle between Ash vs Paul. That one was probably the best. Granted the other battles weren't that bad either but the Ash vs Paul just seemed more epic and more hyped compared to the others.

  • The Ash vs. Paul three-parter in the Sinnoh League quarter-finals. It literally went down to the wire, until Infernape's Blaze triggered and managed to land Ash an epic win. You have to admit Paul's Electivire proved itself why it was the biggest menace of his team and I was really on the edge watching those episodes.

  • Here are some of the best I remember from watching more than 90% of all the anime episodes.

    Indigo League
    Metapod vs. Metapod (for the comedic aspect)
    Ash vs. Jeanette (Muk being the ultmate troll)

    Orange Islands
    Ash vs. Cissy
    Ash vs. Drake

    Johto League
    Ash vs. Falkner
    Ash vs. Gary
    Ash vs. Harrison
    But overall, Johto sucked. Even through my nostalgia glasses I still lose interest. It's the only series where I can't remember what happened in the majority of episodes.

    Hoenn League
    Ash vs. Tate and Liza
    Ash vs. Juan
    Ash vs. Tyson

    Battle Frontier
    Charizard vs. Articuno
    Sceptile vs. Blaziken

    Sinnoh League
    A lot of contest battles because of the CGI graphics, especially Wallace Cup and the Grand Festival
    Ash vs. Paul, Lake Acuity
    Ash vs. Nando
    Ash vs. Conway
    Ash vs. Paul
    Ash vs. Tobias
    This was the best anime series. Ash being competent, contests done right, lots of characters, interesting landscape, etc.

    Unova League
    A few club battles but even that's a stretch.

    Decolore Islands
    Why does this even exist?

    Kalos League
    You watch it for the beauty that is the Kalos region, not because Ash is any good.

    Ash vs Paul in the Sinnoh League was kinda good but it wasn't greatest battle of the anime, if i remember correctly the greatest battle of the anime is Ash vs Gary and while the Johto anime wasn't perfect it was still a whole lot more better then what came after it. The Sinnoh anime was never consider to be the best anime of the entire series. But overall, Sinnoh did sucked.

    Paul was nothng more but a one note rival and that was about it, but his Pokemon were really good. Gary was the best rival this anime ever did have.

  • i have to go with Ash vs Gary simply because of the Charizard vs. Blastoise portion, it was the moment we had all been waiting for when Ash had finally beaten his longtime rival. It was also the classic fire type overcome its disadvantage due to hard work and determination which was so admirable.
    His battle with Paul was also pretty cool especially since Ash stuck with the team that got him to the league in the first place and had previously gotten torched by Paul last time they battled, that was extremely admirable and made the viewing and end result that much more satisfying.

    But dang, that Charizard vs Blastoise battle {:3}

    Satoshi vs. Shigeru was a good battle, but I feel like so much of it flew by just for the purpose of getting to the Lizardon-Kamex climax, with most of the other Pokémon not getting more than one or two hits in before being knocked out. With Satoshi and Shinji, the action was more spread out. Even taking out the Goukazaru-Elekible climax, you have things like Dorapion destroying three of Satoshi's Pokémon in a row, Goukazaru blowing up the field to destroy Toxic Spikes, Pikachu vs. Yukimenoko, and Glion finally taking Dorapion out. That said, I loved how Satoshi defeated his longtime rival with the same Pokémon that cost him his first Pokémon League. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but it was a really nice way of connecting the Kanto and Jouto Leagues.
