Do you want Ash to use his reserves during the Sinnoh League? [Spoilers]

two outcomes can come from this battle and affect future battles btw him and paul.

1, like was mentioned, use his strong reserve at the league
or
2, he has to fasten his seat belt and train his butt off with his current team.

to me there is no need for his reserves to make an appearence in the finals, he has a well balanced team, they just need more trainin time and new moves
 
The more I think about it, the more I'm sure he'll call upon some of his old Pokémon. Wasn't it like the 10th anniversary when DP started? I can't remember. I dunno, maybe he'll call upon Bayleef and then take Bayleef back to Johto. Who knows. But Charizard has to show up, I mean come onnn :)
 
Yes obviously him getting thrashed by Paul has proven that he needs stronger pokemon and should evolve them. If he can't beat Paul in his current state, then it is guaranteed he will get Destroyed by the Sinnoh League Elite 4. He won't even make it to Cynthia. I do wish he would call up his pokemon that have helped him win battles, and proves that evovled pokemon are necessary to fight and win battles.

If he goes to get his reserves on the mere basic of losing to Shinji, isn't that exactly the same as merely giving in? What example would that set? (It certainly wouldn't be a good impression on him as a trainer, either.) Wow, make a pledge to defeat the Pokémon League while on a "new streak" meeting and training a team full of new Pokémon? And then just giving up on them and switching to reserves? Wouldn't that be… stupid?

When Ash beat Gary back in Johto, that proves that fully evovled pokemon make a huge difference in battle. That is the purpose of reserves, because obviously Ash is too stubborn to fully evolve his pokemon. Ash losing to Shinji is a good lesson that sometimes you need sheer power. there is only so much non evolved pokemon can take you before you get beaten. If that was the case then he should be evolving Monferno and Grotle to Torterra and Infernape. If Ash can't even beat shinji how do you expect him to take on the Elite 4 and Cynthia? Honestly it gets kinda old him always pulling through some kind of miracle with pre-evolved pokemon. I know that Ash will get destroyed if he tried to battle Cynthia, the fact that even Shinji couldn't beat Cynthia while Shinji had fully evovled pokemon proves that Ash will need to evovle every sinnoh pokemon he has to even have a small chance to beat Cynthia. Seriously having pokemon like Buziel, Staravia and other pokemon will not cut it when he faces the Champion.
 
To be honest, Ash did beat Brandon with Three pre-evolution Pokémon. Squirtle, Bulbasaur and Pikachu of course. Charizard his only fully evolved Pokémon lost, but I'd say 99% because of Ash's stupidity of doing a Seismic Toss on Dusclops. While Paul lost to Brandon with fully evolved Pokémon.

If i recall, it also took Ash multiple tries to beat Brandon. Let us not forget that trainers like Cynthia are much more powerful especially with pokemon like Garchomp ready to fight. I seriously don't think pre evolved pokemon will do Ash any good later on especially when taking on the likes of Volkner, Cynthia, Lucian and the rest of the Elite 4 T

While I disagree that defeating Volkner would be difficult without fully evolved Pokémon, I agree that he'll need to bring back some Pokémon if he challenges te Elite Four. Though I don't think that Ash will need to bring back his reserves for the Sinnoh League.
 
He should evolve all the starter Pokemon he has. Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Bayleef, Totodile, Cyndaquil, Grotle and Monferno. He should also get back all his Pokemon, Squirtle SHOULD be back on his team. Pidgeot should be back, Primeape too. Charizard and Sceptile should always be with him. He should release his Gliscor since its soooo pathetic. And I wish he could use the following Pokemon for his battle:

Charizard
Sceptile
Staraptor
Pikachu
Snorlax
Buizel
 
HE may use some of his power packs like Charizard Glalie Sceptile and Snorlax but probably not
