That Episode where you realize Black & White became unsalvageable
While, Black & White had quite a bit of criticism before the league, this where the amount went into overdrive and made things unsalvageable: Ash vs Cameron. The match itself was so-so, but as soon Cameron reveals he brought only five Pokémon, it was the last straw for some fans. And soon after, things go downhill. Ash loses the league again, being in worst place than last, after arguably his worst gym run.
Things don't get any better from here. We're then giving the worst evil team arc followed by the most superfluous last stretch of episodes. In a poor homage to the Orange Islands saga. Seriously, nothing of note happens during those episodes. They just meet Alexa, then you could just skip to the last episode and miss nothing.
So yes, the Black & White series has the worst latter half in the franchise. And possibly a contender for all of anime. Few anime I've seen actually dip in quality like this one in their latter portions. And this episode is exactly where it happens. Your thoughts?
