This petition is addressed to the following:
- The Pokémon Company International
- Team Kato (Animation Team of Pokemon XY&Z)
- Shinzō Fujita (Writer of Pokémon XY&Z episode 38)
We plea for Pokemon XY&Z episode 38 to be fixed. Writing the episode is such a huge mistake because the build up for Ash/Satoshi was strong, most loyal fans expected him to win but when he did not, it utterly broke our hearts.
Please tweak just the ending and make Charizard/Lizardon lose from Greninja/Gekkouga's giant water shuriken and make Ash/Satoshi win the Kalos League because that final moment broke so many loyal fans' hearts. Fixing this episode will make the Pokemon anime regain its loyal fans and would mend broken hearts.
I believe fixing this episode wouldn't cost millions of dollars. It's just the part when Greninja throws the water shuriken that seemed like a Z move and onwards, make Charizard lose and Ash win. Or move the Blast Burn earlier then make Greninja survive, then have Greninja use the Water Shuriken and win.
P.S. Many fans have decided to leave the franchise because of this episode so please fix this.

The momentum behind this request demonstrates how deeply the outcome of the Kalos League resonated with the community. It is clear that many people feel the same desire for a more fulfilling conclusion to such a significant journey.

we want the hero to win. you keep telling us to follow our dreams but then you set Ash up to lose. just because he becomes the champion doesn't mean he has to stop chasing dreams, there's so much a pokemon master could do. he can still challenge the gyms like in gold and silver
20 years of waiting only for this? come on writer, you can do a lot better than this. I don't really get it why? after so many hype and you build ash's storyline in this league like this, you decided to make him lose all over again. We deserve better storyline. The Pokemon fans deserve better.
this is so true waiting for many years all the battle was super great even pikachu OMG!! and then Greninja a water pokemon even with hes new "form" lost to a mega-charizard fire/dragon type huge problem there HUGEEEEEE!!!!
The match was absurd. Ash was winning. There could be no other way that time, it's just that the writers want him to lose that's it. I was convinced that he should win. Give him this win.
so much build up and this gets put out? it does not feel like a final battle and the pacing is just different from the previous bouts. dammit
The "Anonymous" signer has a point. Their decision for Ash to win the Alola League was never going to lure fans back, even if it had been done far more carefully. Why do you think people were only happy about it for a little while? Because it didn't erase this injustice. Therefore, the Kalos League (and maybe all the others) should be censored. Here's an analogy: Toxic waste should be disposed of, not simply prettied up by throwing a rose on top. That means even an alternate ending won't please anyone. Complete replacement of the existing ending is the only way to go.
ban all sad endings from the whole planet change all endings to happy whats the dang holdup already

It's make little sense to give satoshi's gekkouga a power up and special evolution (not even available for other player) just to make him lose in the end. Still hope there are another season like battle frontier where satoshi will travel with Serena and win that particular battle with another Pokemon from another region like infernape.
