What do you think is the best battle(s) you have ever seen in the anime Episodes (Not the Movies)?
For me it's a tie between The Cinnabar gym battle of Magmar vs Charizard and the Johto League battle of Charizard and Blaziken.

(Non Trainer Pokemon vs Pokemon battles and any other possible battle type go into the "Other" category)

Magmar versus Charizard definitely stands out for me, but there could be many I've overlooked, especially considering the episodes I've missed.

Really, though, I'm going to have to give it to Cresselia versus Darkrai. A true classic for the ages.

EDIT: holy crap, how could I forget Drake's Dragonite vs. everything? That one was fantastic.

The two best battles for me are:

1. Charizard VS Articuno
2. Ash VS Brandon 4 on 4.

I also want to consider these two the best battles, but I just can't because of the animation. The first one suffered from the Takeda fate, and the second one partly suffered from something that looked like Takeda's son.

Best battle is May vs Drew, which was a contest battle.
 
What abut Blaines Charizard vs Ash Charizard? That was a little intense, especially when they feel into the lava, I was "Oh no, is this the end of Charizard?"

I can't think of more now, but if I do, I'll post some
 
surely it's got to be either

gary vs ash in the kanto league

oorr

ash vs drake in the orange league

in fact i think i might just have to go watch both of them now...GO ASH :D

I’m guessing you mean Blaine’s Magmar? Anyway, there have been many great battles in Pokémon. I would say that Magmar vs. Charizard was the first great battle in the anime. Ash vs. Drake in the Orange Island Championship was epic. I always loved the drama that was build up to when Drake was about to use his Dragonite. When takes it’s Pokéball and Drake looks at it and says, “My last hope. I choose you”. Then he throws it up in the air and the Pokéball opens and cuts to commercial break. That was cool. Ash vs. Gary at the Johto League Silver Conference was well worth the wait of having to sit through all those bad Johto episodes. Ash vs. Katie at the Hoenn League is another favorite of mine.

Yes, but didn't he fight Blaines charizard too? (goes to rewatch episode)
 
ok, I rewatched the episode, was there one episode that Ash charizard battled another charizard?

Anyway, how high did charizard fly when it used submission on Magmar? That was epic!
 
Hmm...I do have a few favorite battles.

Ash vs. Drake (during the Orange Islands)
Ash vs. Gary (during the Johto League)
Ash vs. Morrison (during the Hoenn League)
Ash vs. Brandon (the third battle of the Battle Pyramid)

And I do have a favorite Contest battle!

May vs. Drew (during the Kanto Grand Festival)
*three years later and I'm still amused by the fact that it was a five minute battle (but the footage is over ten minutes long)*

:lol:
But that was also one of the battle's I've enjoyed most.

Ash vs Jindai, all 3 of them actually (though #3 the most), have stood out for me as well. Also, there was one fight I really enjoyed in the Kanto league...vs the insanely strong Madatsubomi I think?

Really? Ash said to charizard to "Show Magmar your aerial Submission attack!" and Charizard did spin around like when a pokemon uses submission, the fact it was flying made it look like seismic toss probably.
 
Surprised no one's said Charizard Vs Blaziken. Anyway, my favorite would be Grovyle Vs Slaking, mostly due to personal bias (2 of my favorite Pokes XD).
 
Actually, someone did.

Anyway, my two favorites were Ash v. Drake (Orange League) and Ash v. Gary (Silver Conference).

The only time I can remember when Ash’s Charizard battled another Charizard was the episode when Ash leaves Charizard at the Charicific Valley. In the Hoenn League, Ash battle a trainer named, Clark, who had a Charizard, but Ash’s Charizard wasn’t used in the battle.

Ha. I’m embarrassed that I didn’t list Ash’s official Gym battle with Norman before. The Grovyle vs. Slaking battle was great and was easily the best Gym Battle in Hoenn.
 
The Ash/Brock Vs. TR in the Pewter Gym tag match was excellent.

Best battle ever.
 
Charizard taking down Blaine's Magmar in THE VERY HEART OF THE VOLCANO ITSELF!

*brick'd for Pokemopolis.net reference* But seriously, that really was great. Shame that's the only one that stands out right now to me. I don't think it's the BEST battle, but it's pretty-kinda memorable. It was the first epic one for the first season.
