Sceptile deserves so much more respect than he gets. The writers did kinda undermine him by not giving him a highly captivating arc like Infernape or Greninja but he's easily one of Ash's best Pokemon to date IMO. The Darkrai victory was so rewarding in a way because it felt like he finally got to have his big moment that he should've gotten at the Hoenn league.

I think Sceptile lacking a major arc and role in the Hoenn episodes is kind of a symptom of Ash himself lacking one. In my opinion, it seems as if the writers couldn’t get the balance between Ash’s story and May’s story right which eventually resulted in Ash just lacking a strong story. He didn’t have a major rival throughout Hoenn because they wanted to give the rival and focus to May, and the Hoenn league was pretty lackluster and arguably the second worst out of the first 6 generations (Unova being the worst). In Sinnoh, they corrected this and there was a monumental improvement in Ash’s and his ace, Infernape’s, stories.

After rewatching it I think Hoenn might be my 3rd favorite league after Johto and Sinnoh. The battles were some of the best and it had the largest quantity of them out of any of the leagues. The only problem was that Morrison and Tyson weren't introduced early on so for most people their battles weren't as meaningful as Ash's other rivals. That being said, from what we got, I did enjoy Ash's dynamic with Morrison more than his with Paul.
Sceptile's win against Tobias' Darkrai is certainly a crowning achievement, given Sceptile lost to Brandon's Regirock and was the only known Pokémon to defeat Tobias' Darkrai. Also, I would agree that Sceptile is likely due for a return in the spotlight and perhaps an upgrade in the move department.

Despite its weaker record compared to Ash’s other aces, I really enjoyed it’s development and personality. A cold, calculated cowboy/sheriff with a heart of gold. And credit where credit is due, it was always a fighter and never backed down from any opponent, Legendary or Luvdisc. (Admittedly that loss was embarrassing for an ace, but he still did his best) I would have loved to have seen it reveal Dragon Claw/Dragon Pulse to do a little dent to Latios though! I think it would have been a fantastic mentor to Sirfetch’d too, teaching it to be a more calculated, reserved knight.

@@totallyshorts4920 in base form I think both of them are equal, Infernape has a really high winrate after all and only lost like once after it evolved into Infernape and that was against Flint...
Where to begin with this one... While I do think there were some missed opportunities in terms of his arc like a "Bro-Mance"/Friendly Rivalry with (Eventually) May's Blaizken long before the episode where they battled and more episodes in Hoenn dedicated to his character development... I think his Arc in Battle Frontier more than made up for it, especially around his final evolution. Those three episodes... The episode he evolved, When he further bonded with Ash two episodes later, and the Battle Palace episode are all classic in my opinion. Sceptile, by far, had/has one of the greatest personalities this anime has ever had, and I know the writers think this do, due to the fact that several Pokemon that have appeared in regions after him have adopted a similar personality like Hawlucha and Sirfetch'd. The writers knew how popular his personality was during the Advanced Generation, and I absolutely love it. Reminds me somewhat of a Han Solo-like character. A rebel, who likes doing things his way, only for him to discover the meaning of teamwork, friendship, and responsibility with a strong heart. I adore these kinds of characters in any media. That's why I love watching Sceptile on-screen. There's so many reason I made a fan-fic with him as the main character... Which is a bit of a redemption story to go with some reunions... And could be a nice way to end Sceptile's story/arc in the anime. I would, personally, love to see Sceptile have one final arc, in which I can feel that his role has truly come to a satisfying end... Whether it be he finds a place to protect and lead as King and/or be worthy of someone's affections...He would deserve it, for a character that the anime... And us, as an audience, needed.

A lot of fans downplay Sceptile barely making ash's top 6, his win record doesn't really tell how powerful he is and the road he had to take to overcome his battles which was incredibly tough compared to most of ash's pokemon
Sceptile lost only to regirock and latios two.legendary
Sadness is Ash never even thought of having Megas of his other awesome pokemons. Imagine his team having Mega Charizard, Mega Blastoise, Mega Venusaur, Mega Sceptile, Mega Glaile, Mega Heracross etc. 🔥 What a team it would be.
I like how they did Sceptile in comparison to the other aces because the focus wasn't primarily on him. I like how it can be argued that Sellow and Corphish can be the ace of Hoenn as well because Swellow had an impressive battle record, and Corphish was used very often and Ash often recognized its strength. I don't really like it when an ace takes the spotlight.

Sceptile is one my favorite of Ash's Pokémon it is a O.P fighter and warrior with the wins to show for it. If Sceptile ever return to battle one day it would be cool to see it as a Mega Sceptile and maybe learn Dual Chop.

So people don't give him the respect he deserves but when you look at this video it tells you that sceptile is one of ash's strongest pokemon despite its many losses
I think Ash’s Secptile was cool and i liked its personality and is Ash’s best Grass type and it’s a shame Ash has yet to get another good Fully evolved Grass Starter since Secptile since how the writers messed up Torterra and Snivy and Rowlet never evolved of they did they would’ve been the redemption from Torterra and what’s is also interesting is that ash’s Fire starters like Infernape and Incinaroar have activated Blaze and Secptile Grassy Surge while Noun of his Water starters have used Torrent ability especially since Greninja had the Battlebond/ Bond Phenomenon when Will Ash get a water starter that will use its ability.

I love the Hoenn saga man. So nostalgic watching from the perspective of just one Pokémon. My first ever season of Pokémon when I was a kid was Advanced Battle and I remember watching a ton of episodes like Charizard vs Articuno and Sceptile vs Blaziken back then. I probably have those episodes recorded on VHS as well, I need to find out which episodes I tape recorded someday

Seriously, back when mega evolution was a new mechanic, I thought for sure we were gonna see a lot of aces returning for mega stone story arcs and then a solid rotation through the league… but no, we got a plot armor ash greninja, which is still cool… but it was so overpowered that the writers wrote it off… and to see ash properly mega evolve anything we would have to wait even more years for mega Lucario. Life doesn’t always go as we plan and I get the greater lessons but there is a seriously growing number of people that would really like to see ash win it all, we are currently so close. His journeys team does feel like a sort of love letter to fans; two major Gen 1 Pokémon that we would have only dreamed of him getting, his first fossil Pokémon, a serious 4 Gen missed opportunity being Lucario and the missed opportunity of mega evolution finally becoming reality and his current ace, and then the true mascot of sword and shield mr. duck himself Sirfetch’d… he finally beat Steven and Cynthia… let’s hope the writers do Leon’s story justice by having ash beat him, like the player in the game.

This was the grass Pokémon that ash finally evolved fully and in a region where he only caught one starter Pokémon, it was worth it similar to what happened with Froakie. It was a good to take advantage of stronger fully evolved starter Pokémon similar to Charizard. I think it was a missed opportunity that Totodile didn’t evolve because if it did he would’ve had three fully evolved lizard type Pokémon and it would’ve been fire water and grass. But as someone who always chooses grass Sceptile worked well for me in Ruby.

Great video! Sceptile is my personal favorite of ash’s aces, I feel like it had the best balance of wins to losses to be believable while still being an obvious powerhouse and ot got a lot of wins but didn’t prevent the rest of the hoenn team from getting wins to the extent that some like inferape did I do somewhat agree though his character arc/narrative growth could have been a little better. And definitely could have done more in the hoenn league, he should have won at least the battle against Morrison (I kinda think Pikachu made sense to be the last against Tyson, if they really wanted the hoenn battle to end with a meowth Pikachu makes the most sense to fight it as both are some of the most important Pokémon and sorta rivals) but I think the darkrai victory largely makes up for it

I like this it gives me insight on stuff I don’t understand
Darkrai was an absolute menace catching bodies left and right and Sceptile getting the W against it showed how strong he was. If any other of Ash's pokemon could bond evolve like Greninja it would be Sceptile for me it just kinda fits an aesthetic for a fully evolved warrior type pokemon
I feel like sceptile is one of ash’s Pokémon that whole heartedly loves him after Pikachu❤
Treeko line is the best of all starters imo. And i have a thing for dragon types too so when he bacame the first grass/dragon when mega evolved my mind was blown.
Oh yes I’ve been waiting for the history of Ash’s Sceptile. I’m pretty familiar with it, it debuted in the episode where Ash and his friends traveled through the forest back in Hoenn. Treeko cared very much for tree and Ash even helped grow it. It joined his team after that. A few losses it had was against Burly’s Makuhita, Ash kinda pushed it too hard to fight and they had to figure out another way to beat Makihita(who then evolved into Hariyama). Pound wasn’t doing anything so they had to try something else. I remember their special training which involved the correct timing to dodge the waves. In the rematch, Treeko triumphed. Later in the Advanced generation saga, it evolved into Groyvle during the battle with the trainer’s Londred(who then evolved into exploud). Fast forward to battle frontier, it evolved into Sceptile while fighting against Team Rocket and after it got rejected by the Meganium it had a crush on and it couldn’t use its attacks for a while until the episode where they met one of the frontier brains that had a claydol and Venusaur. The reason for that was that it was suffering from a broken heart, a broken heart can take a while to heal. Sceptile was one of Ash’s male Pokémon that got rejected by their crushes, there was Totodile and Osawott. When Sceptile was used in battle again in the Sinnoh League, it wiped the floor with Darkai, it withstood the dark void and took it out. Even though it got taken out by Latios, it was still a good comeback. The attacks it used was pound, quick attack, leaf blade, and bullet seed. Sceptile is one of Ash’s strongest grass types

You summarized my thoughts totally. While I will always and forever love Sceptile, as he was one of the earliest of Ash's Aces that I recall as a kid, and will remain my favorite of the Hoenn Starters, as a result, unfortunately I just admit he failed to receive the same acolades of Ash's other aces like Infernape, Greninja, Lucario, or even Charizard, just because he didn't have as fully realized of an arc as those others. But he certainly still stands out amongst the rest, regardless, for if nothing else, than that solid defeat of Darkrai. A true GOAT to stand amongst the rest, therein. Bar none.
Ash’ all time best party 1. Pikachu 2. Charizard 3. Infernape 4. Sceptile 5. Greninja 6. Snorlax(heavily underrated in the anime)
I've seen some people downplay Ash's Sceptile because his ratio of wins and loses isn't the best, however that really doesn't matter when Sceptile has some great victories for him, while most of his loses are against things like Metagross, Charizard, an Elite 4 Altaria or Latios.
