Why do you people want Ash to catch a legendary? It will ruin the whole show. Also catching a legendary is impossible. As far as I remember from the movies, nobody every successed in catching a legendary. So I don't see how Ash will catch a legendary.
Even though it's not int he poll, but any of the Elite Four are the strongest trainers. Seeing how they beat Ash easily. If I had to choose from the list it will be Gary.
So you want them to remove Ash just becuase he has weak pokemons and he is stupid? That's a lame reason becuase they will never replace Ash and even if they did, they will bring a character with new design, but with almost the same personality as Ash.
I like the changes, but I think there might be a problem for Cabada and Mexico. US has far more events than Canada and Mexico. That might mean that Canadians and Mexicans will have a small chance of getting to Worlds.

I think DS is the best becuase they gave the famous Holon Engine. I also like Holon Phantom becuase it gave us Flygon d. I know the set is not good but I like some of the cards int he set.
I would chooce Crawdaunt Ex just becuase I want to make a deck around him. If the * pokemon is really worth it then I would take it. SO later I can sell it for $30+.
